BSU Football!

Once again Jesse Clark hooked me up with a sideline pass, this time against Air Force, a team we have struggled with for years. They run Satan's offense (the Triple Option) and are really hard to stop at it. What was also tough is that I grew up rooting for Air Force since I went to high school on the Air Force Academy. There are two really cool parts of pretty much every Air Force game: 1. The flyovers, where jets of all sizes fly over the stadium at low altitude and cause the entire stadium to shake and rattle. 2. the actual live falcons they bring to the games. They brought a peregrine falcon and another smaller falcon. It was awesome! I also got on ESPN as seen below! I'm right next to Jesse, watching Boise State Linebacker Zeke Noa limp off the field after tearing his ACL. No bueno! We ended up eeking out a win against them, but it was too close for comfort!

So Thankful

Thanksgiving is a wonderful holiday, one that doesn't get as much recognition compared to other holidays but I love Thanksgiving and being able to really think about everything and everyone in my life that has blessed my life abundantly. I show these pictures not because this is what I treasure most, no, that would be my husband, my kids, family, and my testimony of the restored church of Jesus Christ, and my relationship with Him and Heavenly Father. But I thought to share these pictures to show and bring out the beauty in the colors and art to remind us to always be thankful and ever so grateful for those treasured blessings in our lives.

Sun Valley

We decided that the day was way too nice to stay indoors, so we threw all the bikes on the rack and drove up to Sun Valley for a nice bike ride. They have some pretty easy and beautiful rides right around the resort there and we had a great time!

Cross Country Season!

It's been such a fun year watching Avery compete in cross country! I love seeing her run and she has gotten so fast! Every race she has improved her time. Her first race she was 62 out of 116 girls, and her last race of the season she was 25 out of 116 girls. She has really improved her time as well. She gives it her all and puts a lot of effort into her practices. We are so proud of her and love seeing her race. Great job Avery!

This picture right below is honoring the victims os 9/11. We were driving passed it on our way home from a meet and I had to pull over and get some pictures.
