So I guess I should try and take some pictures…………….


Funniest thing about are weekend was our niece Mari Sol asking me, “Why is Uncle Bubbles hair so long?” To which I replied, “It is really curly and sexy and I like it a little long.” Then she told me that his hair is as long as hers which it is not but it could be if her hair got cut.

Our weekend was really good. Saturday I worked at Snowbasin. When we were rolling in Theral tells me that he forgot his ski poles and thus mine too. I head to the employee storage room to grab a loner pair for the day. Unbeknown to me, Theral drove all the way back to Logan and got the poles. He tried to find a sub for are Primary class and couldn’t. He tried to call the President and the numbers was not in service, stopped by the house and guess what no one was home. So he drove back to Snowbasin. Normally forgetting the ski poles would not have been a big deal but we were heading down to Brian Head for the rest of the weekend to spend it with my family.

So I turn on my phone and I have an urgent message from my nephew McQuade asking me where we were. I then called him and explained where we were and gave a time estimation for are arrival. As we were making the last little bit of the drive Theral informs me that he had driven that day what would have been the equivalent of driving from Logan to Las Vegas. I’m glad that I have a trucker for a husband.

Sunday, we skied Brian Head. The view from the top of the one lift might be the best view in the state in my opinion. The resort has some great green and blue terrain for beginners. The terrain was a bit of a let down for the advanced side coming from Snowbasin. But if you need to ski with a family the terrain was great. Theral and I raced in the race course three times. And of course I won. He is a little bit worked up about that. I’m skiing faster them him and he is having some “Skills deficit syndrome” jealousy.

We stayed at my sister’s cabin. It is really nice. We got the room down in the basement which was great. We didn’t have to share a bathroom. My niece Jocelyn and Jacee slept in our room with us. I had a shadow this whole weekend and it was Jocelyn. It like we had an umbilical cord.


On the drive home, we stopped at Swen and Stephanie’s so Theral could help Swen with his bike. Mari, Andalyn, and Callie were my best friends all over. Little girls loved me this weekend. I must have a touch.

So yesterday we got back to the grindstone. Theral worked on homework last night. Clint stayed the night and fell asleep on the couch. It was very non eventful evening.


Before I forget. I got a haircut last week and I hate it. I going to have to go in to someone else and have them do some damage control. I even went to someone that a friend highly recommended. It is not a bad cut but way to many layers in the back. I didn't get what I wanted. I hate getting upset by really bad hair cuts.

I came home from work.............

So Theral came home from school and his hair was like the Mexican flag. For those who don't know, Theral dyed the goatee and then colored his hair with Halloween paint for school right before Christmas for an assembly. He then got a snow day so the students didn’t get to see him. Theral trimmed the goatee but they got to him this week and made his hair look like the Mexican flag. So I'm going to post some pictures from the different looks. His goatee after he trimmed it looked like a leopard. Notice how curly his hair looks in the Mexican flag ones.

P.S. No he is not having an identity crisis as some people have speculated. He is merely being supportive of his students an having fun with it.

On Christmas Day. It looked better.

Mexican Flag Hair.


Look how curly his hair really is.


The goatee with blond tips.




Back of the clown hair/Christmas colors on drugs look.



I think that the picture tells the story its self.

This pasted week,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Some times life feels like that.

So I told you all about the weekend. So Theral is taking classes and working. I’m working and USU and it is Ski seasons and so to have ski benefits, I’m working at Snowbasin. In my eyes I am selling my soul, which might not happen next year. Time management is going to come into play big for us over the next few weeks.

The house needs to be cleaned and it has been on the “to do list” since the New Year and it hasn’t happened yet. Just cooking and doing the dishes sometimes takes up the evenings. I will be the first to admit that we could be more productive but both of us need down time such as watching movies, reading books, and surfing the internet looking up stuff.

I’m trying to get rid of the meat in my deep freezer. We have hamburger twice a week. I’m trying really hard to feed us from the stuff that we have. So if you have any good hamburger recipes send them my way. My favorite has been a chili skillet that I tried.

I’m getting some beef from a friend because he raises his own. It’s going to be good meat. So I’m trying to get rid of the old meat so I can enjoy the new meat.

So last week was not really eventful. We had a family dinner in Orem at Swen and Stephanie’s house. We made a black bean soup with sausage for the dinner part and desert I made a chocolate cake and cranberry jumbles. The cranberry jumbles turned out really good. The cake could have been better. But in trying new recipes I realize that not all of them turn out great. We stayed until 1:30 am in the morning. We then drove back to Logan. I tried to sleep but late at night I kept thinking that we were going to die and so my eyes keep coming open. It didn’t help that Theral hit the rumble strips a few times. I was tried from the previous three days where I didn’t get enough sleep. So yesterday I slept a ton. I’m not going to admit to the amount of time that I spent in naps and sleep because it was all worth it. I feel so much better today.

I can tell when I need sleep because the brain is not working right.

I feel really loved today. I have had calls from two sisters and my friend Tammie. So popular.
