My True Love Gave To Me???????????

Christmas is just around the corner and I've had an easy way to know just exactly how many days until the Jolly Old Man makes his annual appearance to put presents under our tree. How you might ask? Well, My True Love (yes, that would be Eric!) is doing the 12 days of Christmas for me. Every day I've had a present delivered to me with the kids singing the verse for that day of the song. It has been very cute and has made me feel very appreciated during a stressful time of year when the TODO list is never ending. So here's a SHOUT OUT to my man for making his wife feel special!!!

If I were more on the ball, I'd post a picture of all the amazingly wrapped presents (yes, he has a helper outside of my children and man can she make bows!!) I've received things like: bath and body products, a wallet, sleep socks (sooooooooooo soft!), pretty stationery, lotions, etc. A clue is left on the package like, "On the 1st Day of Christmas, my true love gave to me some shimmer and relaxation." Inside the package would be bubble bath and shimmer body lotion. Too fun!!!

What a guy!

Go Cougars!! BYU fans not just in Utah!!!!!

The BYU vs SDSU game was a blast! We brought the trailer down and tailgated with about 35 friends. We got rained on during tailgating so we were thankful to have shelter to run to. Another friend brought up their RV. We had great seats - 40 yard line 19 rows up. Not bad for $10 seats!! Sa-weeettttt!

Eric got a "Golden Ticket" and was able to be on the field for the entire game helping out our Bishop as he films all the away games with his sons. Very cool job!! You couldn't wipe this expression off Eric's face -- a dream come true!

Madison & Courtney show off the Cougar Spirit!

(Ignore the Charger beanie -- it made the hair work!)

Justin & Jason got one-on-one time with Cozmo!

Courtney and Madison get a turn -- our seats were field level so we had easy access.

Even Cosmo was excited for Eric's field opportunity!!

Fly by compliments of Miramar Airforce base -- happened to catch it! Very cool.

Pre-game Polensian spirit . We enjoyed watched one of our YM - Tyler Beck #52 show his polensian moves with his fellow teammates.

TOUCHDOWN! The first of many. Cougars won 48-27!!! (Sorry Brian, SDSU Alumni)

Sky jumpers introduced half-time.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Chef Larry with our 30 lb. bird!! It was quite a feast! We enjoyed having the Gallaughers (and Micki) , Kellers, Grosdidiers and Grandma Moore with us.

Arizona Trip: 11-16-07

We made a quick weekend trip to Mesa to attend Eric's cousin Larry's son's wedding. We took Grandma Minnie out with us so she could spend some time with her kids Jim & Wanda.

This is a picture of Eric and his cousins, Babette, Kenneth, Larry and Sandra. They all laughed so hard and had a great time being together and remembering when . . .Babette's girls came too so we took them to get pedicures while waiting for the temple wedding.
Megan came along on the trip - first time she has been to the Mesa Temple.
