flag football

Flag football

I am just reporting that there will be at least one athlete in the family after Saturday! Alison came and played flag football with the big boys and showed them all up! I will just go over her stats to show you why i am marrying here:

8 - catches

120+ - yards
2 - touchdowns

1- quarterback sack

1-pass deflection

2 - quarterback hurries

So she was on fire and it was so much fun watching the guys from Alabama yell "get the girl" and then one guy would go get her but she would run for 60 yards and a touchdown and the guys would rag on the guy that was covering her! it was good times! She also ran over Bama...he wont admit to it but we all saw it! ;) Call and ask Alison because she will tell you all about it!

Halloween

Halloween

So during the past month or two we started watching a show called "Rock of Love" and after one episode we were hooked! We at first thought we were the only ones who watched it but come to find out there is a bunch a other people who were hooked on the show! The show is Bret Michaels picking amongst all these girls (groupies) to be his girlfriend so we decided to be Bret and the winner (Jess) for the Halloween dance!

So here is one picture of Alison and me dressed up compared to the two we were suppose to look like! I even wore eye liner like he does in the show! Ah, Party Like a Rock Star!

Bret and his girlfriend Jess... I heard they already broke up so i guess that is the life of a rock star and being a rock star's girlfriend!

This is Bama and me posing! He was Mike Vick and was dragging around a little dog by a noose the whole time! It was so funny! Do i look good with long hair!

Party Like A Rock Star!!!!!!

UTAH

We just got back from Utah also and I thought this was a great picture of us! There is a million more pictures i will put up later when i have time! Thank you mom and dad for flying us out there and thank you Curt and Carmen for letting us stay and trash your house!

This was Alison's first time ever going to Utah so it was an enjoyable experience for all. She saw BYU and all the parents taking their kids to class with them, the mountains, and the prophet.

Us seeing the prophet really made the trip! While we were at the Joseph Smith building we were going the bathroom and when i came out of the bathroom i found myself standing next to the Prophet! In all the excitement for Alison to see him i ran into the women's restroom to grab her! It was worth it!

This is us at the conference center. Alison used here "Getting front row seats at Gator basketball games" tactics to get us these seats at conference! Grandpa...you would be proud! The trip was fun and we had a blast! Thanks again for making this trip possible!

Home Again!

The Golden Child Returns

Last weekend Alison and I went home to surprise my dad for his birthday! The look on his face was priceless when we walked through his office door. He did not know what to say but his smile said it all! I know..it's nice having a surprise visit from "the golden couple"!

We also had the chance to meet our new little brother "Riley" and he is just adorable! Watching him jump around using all 4 legs at once is hilarious! The best was seeing him chase "sprinkle" around and kept hitting his head on the coffee table in the living room! It was so funny! He is a good addition to the family! When you walk next to him he looks like a little bear since he so fluffy with all of his fur!

Alison and I went pumpkin hunting with my mom! We forgot how fun it was to mess with pumpkins so threw a pumpkin decorating party at my house for FHE!
This is my room mate "Bama" decorating his pumpkin! Isn't he special! We had 4 pumpkins for everyone to decorate! Alison did a good job planning the activity as FHE mom! So that has been our past week in a nutshell! Oh yeah, The Gators won and that always makes us happy along with Tim Tebow being 1st place in the Heisman Voting! YEAH BABY!

Cable TV

This is for Curt and Carmen...GET CABLE TV. I am going to die come Saturday and I can't watch my usual intake of College football! Come on Curt get with the times and out of the dark ages! I will stink your house with a smoke smell since I will be sitting in a bar watching games all day! Everyone at the priesthood session that night will think I have a "word of wisdom" issue!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Oh the Humanity!

Utah here we come

Headed to Utah

This week Alison and I prepare to go to Utah for conference. This will be her first time going to Utah and conference. With all the traveling her family has done she would have at least passed through Utah. We will meet up with new friends and fiances and catch up good times. Also I will take Alison to my missionary reunion. Introduce her to a few good friends and then leave. Alison is mostly just worried with all the snow she is about to see since she has no warm clothes. It will work out fine! She will also use this time to look at wedding dresses and other wedding stuff since there is a plethora of wedding supplies in Utah.

The other thing Alison and I have been up to is Apartment hunting. We won't be married for almost a year but we are starting to eye places to live. We are trying to get an idea of cost,size, location, etc.. for when it comes time to find a place to live. It is exciting but another challenge that I will wait to conquer around spring time.

So the Utah trip is the big thing and apartment hunting is another thing. School has been good! I have learned (FINALLY) that you need to read on your own outside of class to understand the material and not wait for the teacher to assign it to you. Yeah, after 12+ years of schooling I finally understand. Better late than never!
