Go Phoenix!!!

The view from the Hilton. We were on the fourteenth floor right by temple square!
Poor Raja Bell took an elbow to the face.
Sean Marion was at the game but couldn't play because of back spasms or something. Grant Hill was also gone with apenicitis. Steve Nash had the flu.

Notice that Nathan is the one holding the Go Jazz thing. I wanted nothing to do with the contaminated article.


This poor security gaurd got to sit towards the crowd the entire game. Just watching the people.

My little man!

So Nathan, Grant, and I had the opportunity to go to Salt Lake for a nice little vacation. It was so much fun. We headed out there on Thursday and checked in the our hotel. The Hilton (we're high rollers haha). Later that night we walked to the Energy Solutions Arena (previously known as the Delta Center). We got to sit in the eleventh row! It was so amazing and Grant absolutely loved it. He was a little nervous at first with all the noise but by the end, wether the crowd was booing or cheering Grant was clapping. It was actually his second Suns vs Jazz game but he was only a month and a half when he went to his first. We had bought him the cuttest little Steve Nash jersey back in December online but it never came and being the non-thinker I am, I dressed him in blue (the Jazz colors).

Anyways...even though my boys (the Suns) majorly lost (26 points) and we didn't get to see Steve Nash (he was out with the flu) it was one of the funnest times in my life.

Probably not the best missionary picture but it's still cute!
Well, it's official. Logan is a missionary. He reported to the MTC in Provo today at around 12:30. He called me right before and I tried but could not maintain my composure. I started crying! Then, after my family dropped him off, my mom called me crying which made me start crying again. I was really suprised at how many tears I have cried these last few days. I am so happy for him though. I know he will be such an amazing missionary. I can't wait until he actually gets to Chile. It's going to be such an amazing experience. I have to admit that I am somewhat jealous. If anyone wants to write to him while he is in the MTC, you can go to http://www.dearelder.com/ and register. Then, you send the letter through them to box #270. I am sure he will be so excited to hear from you and he could definately use the support! Well, I am going to go now because once again, I am crying and can't see what I am typing!

How did I get so lucky?

This year, especially around this time, I feel so blessed. I have such an amazing family. My husband is so wonderful and works so hard for us. He treats me like a princess and didn't even get mad at me when I wrecked his brand new truck. If that isn't love I don't know what is? I have the most wonderful son I could ever have dreamed of having. Just hearing his voice makes me smile and even though he is getting to be quite the busy boy, I can't help but laugh when he does something naughty because he is just so cute. I am also so grateful for my Pprents and siblings. We have so much fun when we are all together.

Merry Christmas!

Nathan, Grant, and I went to Price this year to celebrate Christmas with my family! It was so much fun. Having Grant really makes Christmas feel special again. He was so cute when we went in to open presents. I thnk that he liked the boxes that the presents came in better than the actual toys though. Spending Christmas with my family also made it so special. This is the last Christmas We will get to spend with Logan for two years because he is leaving on his mission to Chile on January 16th.
I seriously am such a crazy Christmas finatic. I love it so much. Every year I am the one that does all of the decorating. I even hang up the lights. Nathan doesn't care to do it and it's something I love doing so it works out for us.
Well, I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas.

Christmas Pictures!

This year, we had one of my friends come over and take our Christmas pictures. And they turned out great, if I do say so myself. We had a lot of fun. So... here they are. Well, at least a few of them because I am having some technical difficulties posting my pictures!

Caca's first dance!

My little sister Erica went to her very first school dance. It was Pref. She had a ton of fun and looked so beautiful! I can't believe how fast she has grown up. She has turned into such a beautiful young lady and I love her so much!

Grant's first Halloween!

This year was Grant's very first Halloween! He was a monkey. I got this costume back in August because when I found it, I knew it was perfect. Anyway...we drove down to Price, I am on babysitting duty because my parents, Logan, and Erica, went to Puerto Rico. My cousin Alicia and her son Wylee also came down and we went trick-or-treating together. We only went to a few houses but got a ton of candy. People look at how cute the little kids are and give them more candy, even though they can't eat it. It was kind of funny.
