So Excited

Well, I now have something really exciting to look forward to this summer. Jeff and I are going on a Vacation with my parents to Yellowstone. That used to be a regular summer vacation for my family and I, but when I got older I lost interest in going every year. I haven't been since I was about 20. It has been way too many years and I am really excited to go again this year. My dad got all the reservations set and we are now commited. I can't wait. It totally gives me something to look forward to, and helps me get through this gloomy winter weather. Thanks Mom and Dad for getting everything going!

Christmas Break

Yea!! It's finally here. Christmas break is wonderful. I love having two weeks off of school and getting to spend time with my wonderful family. We have had so many crazy things the last two months happen and I feel like my life was just on overload. It is so nice to feel like I finally have some time to recover and relax. I just love this season and the love that my friends and family give me. Thanks everyone for all your love and support to Jeff and I this last month. It really helped us cope with everything. We love you!!! Merry Christmas.

Parent Teacher Conferences

This week is parent teacher conferences. This is the one time of the year that I get to know what it feels like to work for more than 12 hours a day. I always worry so much about them, yet they always go really well. It is actually really nice to meet all the parents and celebrate the wonderful things their children are doing. The problem is I look and feel like this when they are all over:

Now I have much more respect for Jeff for doing both work and school every day!!! He is AMAZING!!

My two husbands

Jeff and I had a busy Saturday this last weekend. It all started with Jeff finally getting a hair cut (it has been almost six months). This is what brought up the title of my blog. Every time Jeff gets a hair cut I swear I have married a whole new man. He looks so different. I really like his hair both ways but sometimes when he lets it grow too long it starts looking kind of shaggy. Well you see for yourself and tell me I didn't marry two men.

Long Hair Jeff
Short Hair Jeff

Well this wasn't all we did of course. Jeff ended up replacing brake pads for two different cars Saturday and then we headed up the canyon to see the leaves and go out to dinner in Logan. We were so excited to go eat at the Bluebird because Jeff got ribs last time we were there and they were to die for. We got up to Logan this time and they didn't have ribs. He had to settle for a steak which wasn't very good. My dinner wasn't too hot either. Hopefully this is just a one time bad deal at the restaurant, because I don't know if Jeff and I will want to go again if that is the quality of food they always have. Good thing we had one last thing to do that night, see the temple. I spent a year up there in Logan for school and my favorite thing by far was to look at the temple at night. Jeff and I have made that a tradition each year and I still love it. It is just so beautiful.

Awesome Air Races

The day finally came. Jeff and I packed our bags on Friday and headed out to the Air Races in Reno. The drive there was super long, and for just a 3 day vacation, the drive seemed almost too much. But we did make it along with a few bugs we picked up along the way. Well I guess there weren't just a few bugs, it seemed more like outside of Winnemucca we picked up every bug alive. We got to the hotel late Friday night and pretty much went right to bed. The next morning though, we got up early and headed to the show. It was so cool. There were stunt planes doing tricks, races by airplanes, and our favorite Blue Angels flying. I never thought that planes could race each other but that was a really neat sight to see. They all take off and make a huge loop around the sky so that they are all lined up then the take off and fly around a track 5 times. They get going really fast and it is neat to see some of the photo finishes they do. We also saw a lady who did stunts in her plane. She did this amazing thing where she flew upside down only 20 feet off the ground and cut a streamer that two men were holding in half. I couldn't believe it. She also spun her plane around in about 30 circles right in a row. She is crazy, but awesome. The culmination of it all was the Blue Angels flying. I don't think I could ever get bored of seeing these planes. They are so neat flying in their formations and getting so close to one another. It was wonderful and Jeff and I are already planning our next year's trip.

Back to Busy

I haven't updated my blog in a long time because Jeff and I haven't had much time to do fun things. We both went back to school a few weeks ago. He is now attending University of Utah, and spends most of his time either at school, in a lab, at work, or doing homework. I feel so bad for him, but hopefully we will be done soon. I have gone back to school teaching, and it has felt like I have had so much to do every night. I think September is the most busy month of the entire year. We finally had Labor Day weekend, but we still didn't do much together because Jeff went backpacking with his family and I spent the weekend with my sister. I guess our lives are pretty boring right now. Hopefully I will have something more exciting to post after next weekend. It is Jeff's birthday and we are headed down to Reno to go the Air Races and see the Blue Angels. I am sure that will be the highlight of our month! Yea!

Baseball and Sisters

August has been a very busy but very fun month. Jeff and I have enjoyed spending some quality time with my parents and sister. We have been shopping, having dinners, slumber parties, and of course some good old fashioned Baseball games. Dad bought us all tickets to go to the Bee's game last week, and Mom got us tickets to the Raptors Game on Tuesday. Jeff and I love going to these games with the family. It is always nice to sit at the ball park, have our ballpark pretzel and hot dog and just enjoy the game. Thanks DAD and MOM for the fun time.

I also wanted to add that I am really glad that it is back to school time. Not only because I love going back, but also because I am hoping that Brittany will be able to get back into school and stop hurting herself. She has spent the last few weeks down with Kidney Stones. They were actually bad enough that she had to have surgery on them last week. I am glad she is better now, and I hope it stays that way. I love ya sis.
