Is there a need for adoptive grandmommys? Because I think I would be really good at it!

Classic

Last night at the Jazz game a very scantily dressed Mrs. Kirilenko walked by. The 11ish year old boy sitting behind us says, "Was that really Mrs. Kirilenko? Wow! She needs a bigger shirt." Classic.

If it is good enough for my puppy...

It is good enough for my grandbaby. Sophie came over to play today and this is where she wanted to be. She did want me to be right next to her, but she wanted to be in the crate with the doors shut. When it was time to leave I put Tulo in his crate and Sophie cried, "No,no", she then ran over and got in with him. Haha, she is too funny!

Bea"UTAH"ful

Tuesday evening as we were getting ready for bed, Colin said "Oh, Mom, tomorrow I have a program. We are doing it at 10:00 and 1:00. Parents can come if they want. And I want to suit up."

The fourth grader at Sage Creek just finished their unit on Utah History. They learned and performed several songs and a few kids even square danced. Colin promises that he was actually singing...but I don't know; it looks a little like bad lip syncing to me.

P.S. Just pretend we are having an earthquake and the videoing won't seem quite so jerky.

I thought this was a baseball game...


Brian and I had the opportunity to attend the Rockies Home Opener at Coors Field last weekend. Game 1 was great! Beautiful, sunny day, great seats and the Rockies win 7-0.


Game 2 started out great. A little cold out, but still good seats and the Rockies are up 2-0 and then this guy shows up!! Have you ever seen an obnoxious, loud, foul mouthed drunk and thought to yourself, "That is why I don't drink."? That was this guy. He spent most of the game standing up, turned around, talking (OK, yelling) at the 2 couples behind him and the one next to him. This dude was in love with them; he was buying beer for everyone, taking pictures of them, I think he actually invited them to Christmas dinner. A little distracting for a baseball game, but we were trying to ignore it and watch the game...now tied up 4-4.

But then someone dropped the O-bomb...OBAMA! I haven't heard so many F words since the opening scene of Pulp Fiction. I was reminded of the old saying: I went to a fight and a baseball game broke out. Of course, the game went 14 innings so we were able to enjoy the director's cut version of this drama. Moral of the story: What's more American than baseball? Definitely not Obama. Oh, yeah, the Rockies lost 4-5.

The Living Planet Aquarium...eww!

A few days ago we went with Courtney and Sophie to see the penguins at The Living Planet Aquarium. Sophie pointed at everything we saw and said, "Eww!" and it was more of an eww, that is yucky; than an eww, that is neat.
She did like splashing in the Stingray water, but not if the Stingrays were close by.
By the time we got to the Utah fish, Sophie was pretty much done. She had no interest in the trout.
