St. Patrick's Day

Happy St. Patrick's Day! I hope everyone remembered to wear their green! Well I got the day off of work so I got to stay home! Yeah! But I also had a surprise today! I found out that I was married to a Leprechaun!

Okay maybe not a leprechaun but maybe a dwarf or something along that line!

Let me explain these pictures! Our aptartment has a retarded heater! It only works about 5% of the time! It turns on and off when it wants. We are sitting here freezing and I turn to look at Travis and this is how he was sitting. You are always taught that you lose most of your heat through your head so he had his head covered. But with his hoody over his ears it was making it harder to hear the TV so he pushed it behind his ears. And yep I had to take the picture of him. Its a good thing he doesn't look at my blog or he would probably not be happy that I put these on here! Oh well, it is sure funny! My husband the leprechaun! (Dwarf, elf, etc.)

BYU Dancesport

Biggest Ballroom Competition in Utah

For those of you that don't know much about ballroom except for watching it on "Dancing with the stars", it's a real competitive sport. There is a few dancers on "Dancing with the stars" that are from Utah! But every year in March BYU has their big competition where people from all over come and compete! When I say all over I mean all over the world. During this time of the year it can be bring about bad moods, anxious moms, and sick stomachs! But it also brings cheering and big smiles! Our family has not competed in this competition for a few years so Joel took it upon himself to take a class at BYU that has their ballroom students compete in this!

Joel was competing in the Bronze 180 (Cha Cha)! In this category there was 188 couples! So there was 376 people on the floor in this picutre. There weren't competing at this moment they were trying to show how hard this competition was and how many people were signed up to compete! That's right Joel had to compete against all of these people!

The way they judge this, since most of them its their first competition and probably their first dance class, is if they can stay on rhythm and if they do the steps correct. Seems easy right! Well its a bit harder than that! I took pictures of Joel and his partner, Whitney, doing some of the dance moves.

This move is called the chase. Well at least we know he is being chased by at least one girl! He he he! I couldn't help it I had to say that!

This is the sweetheart!

This is the butterfly!

The competition was a blast and Joel made it to the final twelve! Congratulations! Remember I said there was 188 couples! Great job Joel!!!

Princess

Pretty Princess

MeMe just had her 18th birthday (how time flies)! But we didn't get to do anything for her birthday because in our family there is always something going when we have a birthday! Like dance competitions every year or some kind of tournament going on! Oh wait, thats just my birthday every year! But MeMe did have her senior ball on her birthday this year! At least she was doing something fun! And when you look at the pictures you will understand why this is titiled "pretty princess".

Snow White and Prince Charming???

That's who she reminds me of, Snow White! So what is a Princess with out her Prince! That's Brandt! He is a cutie!

What is a dance without your mom pinning on the flower because you are to nervous to do it yourself! And if we did it, it would probably just fall off!

And every Princess is suppose to picked up in a carriage lead by horses! Or in an Escalade Limosine!! I guess they are about the same thing! (If you look very close there is a second limo behind the black one! That's right there was two of them there!)

And every Princess gets a good night kiss! Well at least one! He he he! Anymore information you will have to ask MeMe about it!

If you want anymore pictures of her dance let me know and I can send them to you!

Exercise

Travis' Exercise Program

So everyone always does a New Year goal! Well we actually didn't make any this year but I decided that I was going to run at least three times a week at the end of January (and it's going great so far). So Travis decided that he was going to exercise three times a week! Here is his program!

BASKETBALL!

BASKETBALL!!

(Yeah, honey good shot! He made this one!!)

Look he is running! Oh wait, that is still a basketball game!

Don't think I am complaining or anything because I think it is great that he is doing something but three basketball games a week is a lot for ME! Did I mention it is church ball!

I caught the cute missionaries watching and wishing they could play!

St. George: Soccer Tournament, Family Fun!!

After we left Vegas we went to St. George for MeMe's soccer tournament! You will have to look through the pictures to see how it went!

When we arrived this is how we found everyone!

Not only did everyone sleep but we ate alot of food!

We had a lot of posers to! I'm mean posing for pictures!

Some Happy Faces!!

Some not so happy!

But don't worry it did have a happy ending!

Yep! That's right, they won! #1

Las Vages:Our Real Anniversary

Since we were sick for our anniversary we decided to go to Vegas for a little fun!

Sorry for the pole in the middle but it was the best picture we could get!

This is were we stayed! Excalibur! This was the view from our room!

Here is some of the things we saw and did!

If I was good enough blogger I would be able to up load what this guys was doing! But since I can't figure it out let me explain, everytime someone gave him money he would do some robot moves. When kids gave him the money he would do the moves and then give them a blow pop. Believe me, it was cooler then it sounds!

Yes, Traivs' wing span is as big as the smart car. We decided that he probably couldn't fit in it!

This was just a good looking car!

If you have ever seen the movie "BIG" this is the machine he make his wish to!

This one explains itself!

He might be bigger but I'm pretty tough!

Our First Anniversary and Time Spent Together...

Priceless!!!

YEAH!!! We made it! We have have been married for a year. Unfortunately I got both of us sick! We didn't really have anything planned since we are going to Las Vegas and St. George in a few weeks but we were hoping to at least go out to dinner! Instead we had dinner in bed!
