If you want to be famous....

be involved in something that has a prayer in Spanish....and then stand up for a decision that had the best of intentions.

Today Fox 13 and ABC 4 News both interviewed my dad...he's famous!  During the Hyrum Patriotic program, the closing prayer was said in Spanish with translation in English.  Apparently there are quite a few people who aren't too pleased with it.  Someone told my Dad that he should get out of the country...well he doesn't even know Spanish-only speaks redneck-how is he supposed to survive outside of the good old USA-the land of the free where people fought for the freedoms that we enjoy.  It's really sad that so many people - who weren't even present for the patriotic program - can be so ignorant and hateful.  Thank goodness we all know what a good guy he is!  I'm just afraid the paparazzi are going to be chasing us now that he's a superstar...I'm going to have to get him a sweet disguise!  My mom is scared that everyone is going to want his body-look out Edward Cullen actor, Paul James is going to give you a run for your money!

The Ogden Temple-before they remodel it...

I haven't really ever looked closely at the Ogden temple, but a friend wanted a picture for her parents, so I took a few of the "old Ogden temple" before they remodel it.   The design is very interesting, all of the windows in the middle section reflect different views while you're looking at it in different angles like a mirror.  It's very pretty when you take the time to really look at it.  It will be cool to see the difference...

Apparently my parents aren't so good at making Gallbladders...

Poor Karly is joining the ranks of the gallbladder-less children in our family!  Becky and Nicole already are skilled at not having the good old bile collector but Karly will be new at it after Thursday! 

Too Bad this comic isn't true!  Don't we all wish that pain would be beneficial in the end?!

New adventure.

For those of you that know us, we are not very adventurous when it comes to food. We like it simple. We don't like to try new strange things. (When I say we I mean I, I can't speak for Terri but I am sure she feels the same way.) Anyway, this last week a girl I work with asked if I wanted to go to the Indian Oven with her and I was like mmmm no thanks. Then she told me they would be having some entertainment. So I thought why not. So we got a few people together to embark on this new adventure. This is what the entertainment consisted of....

We felt a little scandalous, like maybe we mistook the belly dancing entertainment for, I don't know maybe stripping! Yeah it was a little uncomfortable but very enjoyable to watch the other people putting bills in their waistbands. We had a lot of good laughs and we also saw George W Bush's bizzarro twin! So all in all it was a fun night. Oh and the food was actually pretty good. I probably wouldn't eat there everyday but once in a while it would be good.  By the way, OOMPAH (who knows how to spell it-think My Big Fat Greek Wedding) was yelled out quite a few times, our friend Jenni was brave enough to ask the waitress if that was really an Indian word...that would be a no.

The woes of a Jazz fan.

So, tonight was the first of two home games in the second round of the NBA finals. I was so optimistic that the Jazz would win. I mean we do have the loudest arena in the NBA and arguably the best point guard. But with those two powerful weapons we were not able to pull out the big "W". There were some highlights to the game though, like the time I yelled at the top of my lungs for Kobe to suck it. There is probably no one I hate more in the NBA than him and of course Derek Fisher who is a traitorous little weasel. The rest of the Laker line up is a close second though. Yes, I get a little heated. I can't help it. I am just very passionate about the Jazz. I know that the chances of the Jazz winning this series are slim to none, but I am going to root for the Jazz regardless. This is no fair weather fan! JAZZ  FAN FOREVER!!!!! Nicole
