Finals Shminals...

I have been out of the "blogging world" for the past couple of weeks. My last final is Friday, then I am free at last! I'll give a full update on the latest after Friday.

I hope everyone is having a great week!

Tradition

I am posting this in defense to the many blogs I have seen cheering for BYU. I didn't want to start a rivalry, but I must defend my team amist all the BYU fans on the blogging scene. How do you describe the rivalry? Well, the best explanation I can give is being either a Utah fan or BYU fan usually is instilled to most of us before we are even born. More of a culture really :) Rivalry week hits a nerve for those of us cheering for our bleeding colors either blue or red. For my fellow Ute fans going to the game get your passports out ready to enter Utah County (because it's a different country) and cheer on the Utes for me!! I'll be representin' in Cali over the holiday!! GOOO UTES!!

SLC Movin' Up..

Who would have ever thought Utah would come around as to host Urban Outfitters?
I must admit I have mixed feelings of the situation. On my travels out of Utah I always looked forward to visiting the nearest Urban to stock up on goods that fellow Utards wouldn't have. The store opened today, pretty sweet but still weird.

Marilyn Monroe and Joe Dimaggio

Carlee Monroe and Ben Dimaggio

Ben and I obviously dressed up as Marilyn Monroe and her former husband baseball player Joe Dimaggio. Good Times! I love Halloween, it's my favorite time of year!! What do you think of me as a blonde ehh?

Rec Therapy

Ben and I thought it would be a great idea to go hiking after work on Friday considering it was a beautiful fall day. As we were driving up Milcreek low and hold there lies 4 inches of snow along the banks of the road..Hmmmm. We were dressed in shorts and capris geared up for an evening stroll. Maybe the paths are tracked out? (was our nieve thinking) We decided to go for it anyway. We took our path, and it was definitely not tracked out. Apparently we didn't get the memo that there was snow already! Needless to say it ended up being a great hike. It looks cold from the pics, but we were super warm! The best part of the hike was watching Koda frolic in the snow. He was a mad mannn leaping and hoping through the winter wonder land! I am practically wrestling him in the picture to hold him down:) It was just what I needed to spend the evening with my 2 boys taking in the beautiful scenery after a long stressful week..
