Happy Anniversary

Scott and I met on the Rexburg cruise on Feb 23, 1996. As he got in his truck to leave, he told his buddies that one day, he was going to marry me. As he walked away, I turned to my friend Julie and said, "That's the man I'm going to marry." We took our time, had a beautiful daughter along the way and finally chose to get married on May 15, 2004.

We have never celebrated an anniversary, so on our 5th "married" anni, we decided to actually celebrate. He surprised me with a dozen peach roses, and I surprised him with a night at the Rustic Inn in Jackson, dinner at a local dive and a Mountain Man retreat the next day. Nothing major, but it was fun to just get away and hang out. When we got home, we realized that we hadn't turned the radio on the entire drive there or back, we were so busy talking and catching up.

I am so glad I married the man of my dreams. I am so glad that we moved here so that we could find each other, and I am so glad we have a beautiful life together. Scottie, I can't wait to grow old with you.

Couponing

My dear friend Bethany stayed up late last Monday night to teach me the art of "couponing." I was lost at first, but after her patient lesson, I went out the next day and to my surprise, I saved big bucks on things our family will actually use. So here is a little post & pics of my Albertson's adventure. I got all this for $22.24!

So here it is ya'll....a new personal record, and about time too! I'm having a blast learning on this awesome horse. He's helping me ride not-so-English, and I'm learning to loosen up and just have fun with it! Way, way, way too much fun!!!

Poles

The first night I tried this, I about gave up. After a bit of practice, albeit speed, I time only-ed him and needless to say,
SHINER ROCKS!

And another thing

This video shows that even though she makes lot of mistakes, Macady keeps going, learning & smiling. There's still has a lot of room for growth :) but she is getting better. Hopefully by rodeo season, she'll pocket her turns and add a little speed. Until then, she's just having a blast with Shiner!
(And a little $$$ incentive doesn't hurt)

Past Blogs

So I was looking at my Myspace page and decided to post some of my past blogs on here, because it's late, and I can't sleep...as usual. Enjoy learning a little more about me, as if I wasn't weird enough already.

Current mood: not-so-peachy This is the last day of my twenties and I don't think it could have gone much worse. I thought I'd have more to say about it. Here's to tomorrow.
