All I have to say is GO UTES! The game on Saturday was so glorious, I am always proud to be a Ute, I wear red in rain or shine. But on Saturday, I was especially thankful to wear red and to be a UTE!! Go Utes!!

a week of miracles.......

This past week has been a true week of miracles.  Obama won!  My sister Corinne came home from her mission.  And let's talk about the Utes!! What an great game, I got tears in my eyes as they scored their touchdown.  And oh, one more thing....good-bye to my job at the Capitol and hello to my new job at the University of Utah.  Go Utes!  Sorry for the lack of pictures, I washed my camera and I just barely got a new one.  And oh, Mitch was in town last weekend.

The Grand Canyon

A couple of weeks ago I hiked the Grand Canyon with Ash, Tucker, Jake, and Spencer. It was beautiful, long, and amazing!

On another note...today is ELECTION DAY! How exciting, I hope that all of you get out and vote. I can hardly wait to see who wins the election!

early voting...VOTE!

Vote...vote...VOTE..vOTE

Oh, I love this time of year!!! I almost can't wait for Election Day, I LOVE to watch the states turn red and blue. I have this great desire to see red states turn blue...and blue states turn red. (can you imagine if Utah's electoral votes went to OBAMA!!!) Voting has already begun, yesterday in Utah around 20,000 people voted. If you don't want to wait in long lines, go ahead and vote early. If you don't know where to vote early go to www.elections.utah.gov and clink on the link that states, "early voting locations." Get out and VOTE!! You can also view your sample ballot online at www.elections.utah.gov. I love Politics and I love AMERICA!!! VOTE!

a 14-year-old virgin

so today i was quietly taking a little nap during my lunch break, relaxing prefectly enjoying the rays of sunlight in city creek park. i was suddenly awakened by three 14-year-olds. they were talking ever so loudly or maybe it's just the fact that i love to listen to what everyone else is saying. anyway, back to my story (bts-hah), this is how their conversation went:

girl 1: you are not a slut if you are not a virgin.
girl 2: even if you are 14?
girl 1 & 3: no! of course not

as you can imagine, i was surprised beyond belief. they kept on walking and i kept on sleeping. well, when it was time for me to go back to work i walked right past them and i felt like i had to stop and say something.....this is how my conversation went with them.....

me: are you really 14? all three of you?
girls: yes, yes, yes
me: well, i heard you talking and i don't want to be like your mother or anything, but have you had sex? (can you imagine, i really did this)
girls: no, no , no....
me: well, i just want you to know that sex is a big thing and can bring...AIDS, STD's, and children. and i would guess that none of you want those things right now...
girls: (no words, just staring at me like i am completely ridiculous)
me: well, have a nice day

as i walked away, they just laughed.......

There she goes...

Andi left last week for the middle-east, she will be missed.
