2009!

What a way to start the new year...a University Of Utah Football 13 and 0 winning streak! Wow! The bowl game was amazing. We had a party at our house and it was totally worth it. I cannot beleive how amazing it all was. I cannot wait for the new season to start already...we got our season tickets a month ago!
So Christmas was so much fun. Our family gift from Santa was a Wii fit. So ya know how on the wii you get to make your wii person? Well, I guess I was a little too generous on how "big" I made mine. The wii fit takes your height and weight and makes it the "real" you. Mine happened to get bigger...sad huh? lol. It also told me I was over weight...only by like 8 lbs or something, but that's still sucky. I know I need to lose some weight...but man...to hear it from a game? That's rough! I'm starting a dance class with Julie on Wed nights starting this wed. So that will help. I think I gained 5 or so lbs this holiday season. Dang all that delicious food. The kids had such a good Christmas. They were so cute. McHailee got sick Christmas Eve and was very sick Christmas day and the day after. But she still posed for pics and tried to be a good sport. Her big gift was a 4 wheeler power wheel thing. She wouldn't get off of it. Remington's was a computer that plugs into the T.V. He loves it. It has a mouse and a keyboard and everything. Mike got a really nice paintball gun, new skis, and lot's of U of U stuff. And other things too. I loved my Christmas. Mike tends to spoil me when it's present giving time! :) He is adorable! Our family Christmas Eve party was a blast. I love Mike's family. They are all so cute and loving. We had my family over on Christmas day. We do a family breakfast. Wow do I have a lot of neices and nephews! So that was Christmas...
Mike and I got to go to Kanab again this year for his work. He had to do an inventory count check at Stampin Up. It was fun...but very tiring. 2 days of just driving. There and back. But the hotel we stay in is so cute and has an amazing breakfast. We stopped in Cedar City on the way home and planned to be there only an hour...ended up being 4. Mike had to stop there to do a check at an apartment complex...one hour turned to 4. It was rought trying to find things to do with a 6 year old and 2 year old for 4 hours. But we made it through. We got home around 7:30 and had people showing up at our house for New Years Eve around 8. We had so many snacks and junk food! (maybe that's where most the lbs came from.) :) We played games and just hung out all night. At midnight I got to kiss the love of my life! :) I love starting the new year with him every year! Then we did some illegal fireworks! That was so fun. McHailee was asleep...I'm surprised it didn't wake her up. We were pretty loud.
Mike and I also went to Solitude for him to ski and me to snowboard. I had so much fun. We bought a ten time pass and used 5 runs on one day and the other 5 runs this last Saturday. I'm still recovering from the time 2 days ago. Mike decided to take me on the blue runs. I have only been on the greenie runs. But I did it and it was fun. I fell quite a bit but not like I did the week before. My calves get so tired. The burn!! the burn!! lol. But I was really getting the hang of it. Mike is so funny. He skiis pretty good. He does jumps and everything. But all done for the year, now Mike is gone for about 4 months. Bye baby! :*( Well...let me explain...he isn't like going anywhere...but January to the end of April it's like I'm a single woman. (but still taken lol) As an auditor/accountant at a public accounting firm they have whats called a "busy season" and by busy I mean Monday through Saturday 12-14 hour work days for 4 months. And if you think that is bad...he also still has school. So this morning I texted him and told him I loved him and see him in a few months. :) He laughed. So...to all my friends...it's girls nights for 4 months. lol. :)
Wow I have had a lot to say huh? I need to post more often...like I always say.!
