BYU Football Party

I planned another BYU Football party for the residents this year. We have some of the players come, along with Cosmo. The day before, we made t-shirts with all the residents for them to wear, and we decorate the building in blue and white. The newspaper came and they actually did and article about it (Daily Herald). The players did some games with the residents and took pictures with Cosmo. Brett was working that day as a nurse and when he saw me getting my picture with the players he told me to just make sure they didnt give me a "game day slap". The funny thing is , one did!!! JUST KIDDING. Ok, that totally makes me think of my favorite Spongebob episode when he breaks his butt and his friends want him to join a seven mile long spanking machine and then he sees other fish playing football and slapping each others butts. Hahahaha I love that episode! ANYWAY, it turned out great and the residents loved it. Now I have to focus on our biggest event of the year, our Sweetheart Ball, and its tomorrow!! Its always so crazy the day before, wondering if you have everything ready and not if but what will go wrong. Wish me luck!

Laundry

Living in an apartment has pros and cons. For example, laundry.

Con- having to carry laundry to the laundry mat, especially in the winter when its freezing and your wearing thin pajama pants because your'e washing everything else you own.

Pro- only doing laundry once a week and getting all 4 loads done in an hour and a half. Also, burying yourself in the warm laundry after carrying it in from the freezing cold!

Christmas Vacation

Well, being home for Christmas was great, but it did come to an end. I was pretty bad about taking pictures, now Im regretting that. Oh well. I did get some good pictures of my babies (my cats). Peepurrs is getting older now and it was sad to see her decline some.

Stomach Pains

So, at 3 a.m. yesterday, I woke up in extreme pain from my upper stomach, right under my ribs. This lastest all day and even got worse in the afternoon, I was doubled over in pain. I went to the doctor, who was in a hurry to leave and said it was probably an ulcer and prescribed Prilosec. To which I was upset and reminded him I already on Prilosec!!! He prescribed a more expensive drug which does the same thing as Prilosec, hello! I dont need a drug that is doing the same thing as the one Im already taking! Anyway, I was doubled over in pain and not thinking clearly and in no shape to argue. So I went home. It got worse, we almost went to the emergency room. But around 9 p.m. the pain went away but a migraine came on and I was so dizzy. The next morning I went back to the doctor to tell him there was no need to do the upper G.I. x-ray that he wanted to do, but my lower right abdomen was hurting now. Of course thats a red flag for appendicitis. So off I went to do a C.T. scan. Ive had a CT scan before but let me spare you the details and just say that two I.V.'s later and a gallon of water poured in my butt because Im too skinny for the CT to see my appendix-not fun.
Anyway, my appendix was fine but there was fluid in my abdomen. They are guessing I had a burst ovarian cyst. Gosh, can anything else be wrong with me?!! I have so many small problems wrong with me. Dont get me wrong, Im glad they are small and usually easily fixed but geez, I feel like an old person trapped in a young person's body sometimes. Well, Im feeling a little better, tender though and I cannot get rid of this stupid headache! Thanks for all the phone calls from friends to check on me. I guess I am loved!!!

BYU vs Utah

Biggest game of the year and who got two free tickets the day before the game? WE DID! Yes, thanks to my bro Jason, we got the tickets. Shout out to Debbie for coming to work early for Brett so we could scream our guts out and have a blast.
Of course, BYU WON! Whooo!

Thanksgiving

We celebrated Thanksgiving at Brett's parent's house where his brother is currently living and my brother came down from Idaho too. It was a blast. It was everyone's first time cooking a turkey and it turned out good! We had a blast playing Guitar Hero, shopping, talking and eating!!

Anniversary Celebration

Four years of wedded bliss. I cant believe it. It all been so wonderful and amazing how our love has grown. We didnt have much time on our anniversary, so we went to dinner at the Chef's Table (my fav). Then, in early November, Brett planned our usual weekend getaway to celebrate, so I had no idea what we were doing.
It started with dinner Thursday night at Noodles, then we drove to SLC and stayed at the Anniversary Inn- the Romeo and Juliet room- it was pretty much just a fancy looking house/room. But it was nicer and more fun than I thought. And no, Carrie it was not too kinky (is that how you spell that?)but Ill leave that up to your imagination. haha. Brett made me two baskets as usual, full of goodies- new comfy outfit,slippers, treats, dvds, etc. Not to mention a wonderful letter full of goosh, money to blow and a manicure and pedicure at the Zermott, where we stayed the next two nights.
We did a lot of shopping in SL, Park City and also enjoyed Temple Square. I was thoroughly spoiled with attention and gifts and loved every minute of it. Well, it was a wonderful weekend and now Boo's only problem is that he has outdone himself again! Now the pressure is on for next year!!!
