Scott and I have recently become addicted to a couple of shows, Amazing Race and Celebrity Apprentice. Since I get super involved in shows I watch, I have a few people I just love on those shows. On Amazing Race, I freaking LOOOOOVE the cowboys. They are so sweet and polite and super redneck, so they say the funniest stuff. I was really sad that the County Music Awards or whatever were on instead of the Amazing Race this week. I didn't get my weekly dose of my favorite cowboys. I really hope they win. They are just so great. Scott and I go around quoting the things they say. Love, love, love.
As for Celebrity Apprentice, I adore the two most unlikely people: Bret Michaels and Sharon Osbourne. That's right folks. I think they are both pretty awesome. Bret works his tail off and actually has an amazing heart. That is if they person he plays on TV is the same as he is in real life. If not he is pulling off a wonderful scam. He definitely doesn't have the highest morals in the world, but he is a good guy overall in my opinion.
As for Sharon Osbourne, she is tough lady, and she would have to be to be her husband's manager. She is the type of woman you just don't mess with, yet she still manages to come off with class. I know if anyone watched their show, you will disagree, but whatever. I like her. Her don't mess with me attitude and all. It is too bad that she has been sick a few episodes, because I would really enjoy seeing more her.

Only at Walmart
Scott and I were at Walmart a couple of weeks ago and thought we saw an empty spot. Instead, this is what we saw:
Apparently someone rode their bike to Walmart, parked it in a stall on the grocery side. It was there when we got there, and it was there when we finished our shopping. Scott brought up a good point: How do they plan on getting the groceries home?

This last weekend Scott and I went up to good ole' Rexburg,Idaho for our niece's gymnastic "Olympics". It was a good trip. Brittney did so good, she is 8, and just started doing gymnastics this year, and she was the best in her group. She was probably the oldest in her group as well, but she was the only one that knew the mat routine without any help from her teacher. I was so glad we went to support her. I know she was really happy Scott could make it. I'm pretty sure she has a little crush on him, but that is ok with me. Here are a few of the pictures I got: 
I guess I might be a little excited about her doing well because I quit gymnastics because I couldn't do a cartwheel. I still can't do a cartwheel, so I guess that kind of thing is just not for me. I will stick to running.
Anyway, I was loading for the HCG diet over the weekend as well. I got lunch on Saturday at New York Burrito. I had been craving it for a long time. I used to have it for lunch a lot, but sadly, they closed the one in Orem. I was really excited to have it again. The loading part of the diet is always really fun. Eating anything and everything that isn't good for me. Lots of ice cream. I am on day 5 now. So day three of the restrictive diet. Only 18 more days to go!

Hello Spring!
Finally, finally we had a beautiful day on April 10th. It was so nice to go golfing (for the first time this season, not pretty), and have to take off my long sleeve shirt because it was too warm. Seems like we have been waiting a long time for golfing weather or for weather that is appropriate to the season. I am glad there is a light at the end of the tunnel. There will be warm weather again, and I actually got a bit of a sunburn on my chest. This week Scott and I went for a bike ride, went and played basketball at a park, and went golfing. I just love being outside and being active and having the fantastic weather to do it. The weather is not really fantastic yet, but I will take what I can get!!! Welcome Spring! We are so glad you are here!
Pictures
We got our pictures back from last weekend. There are some really cute ones. I am happy we got one good one of Scott and I and I do really like my red hair. And the best part is you can't tell we are all really cold. Here are some of my favorites:

Family
Last week was a little bit crazy, a little bit hectic, and super busy, but it was a lot of fun. My brother and his family came in to town on the 27th we went over to visit that night. He headed down to St George with his wife on Sunday to play some golf (jealous) and then came back on Tuesday. My sister and her family came down on Monday night as well. The problem was Scott and I still have work and I still have school, so we had to juggle a little bit. Scott was supposed to have Wednesday off and I took Wednesday and Friday off. We actually had a tee time set for 9 am on Wednesday morning, but ended up not going because the weather was horrible. Who knew you had to worry about weather being good enough for golf on March 31st. But that is the spring we are having this year. So Scott went to work Saturday morning and I took care of a few things around the house and did homework.
The best part about Wednesday was I got to go to the temple with all of my siblings. It was really cool. It was the first time we have ever done that and I don't know how often it will happen in the future. Scott couldn't make it because of course his work schedule got in the way, but other than that it was a great experience and my sister and her husband were the witness couple.
Wednesday night we celebrated Tia's and Malachi's birthday super late, but Malachi wanted all of his cousins to be in town for it. It was crazy with all the kids sitting on the floor and Malachi wanting to play with each toy he opened, but it is always enjoyable to see all the cousins having fun together. It only happens every couple of years.
Thursday was a normal busy work day that I had to work because it was quarter end. I probably could have taken it off, but I would have regretted taking three days off in a row on Monday.
Anyway, so I took another day off on Friday and spent most of the day with my sister-in-law in Salt Lake. We went to the Salt Lake Temple. Neither of us had ever been to a live session before, and I loved it. It was such a great experience and even though it took up most of our day, I wouldn't have traded it. The live temple session had a special spirit to it. The spirit was so strong and it was a wonderful way to spend a few hours. After the temple we went over to the Joseph Smith Memorial and at The Garden. It was pretty good. Following our lunch it was getting late, but we had already decided to go to Tai Pan and I was really glad we went. I found more of those large golf balls that we have in front of our house for $2 each. Freakin awesome deal!
Friday afternoon/early evening we had family pictures, which I don't have any yet, so I can't post them, but it was 40 degrees and windy so it was kind of miserable, but I am really hoping we got a good picture. I am mostly looking forward to seeing pictures of Scott and I because we haven't really had any pictures done since we got married. I guess every couple of years is ok before you have kids right?
Friday night we at out all together, which of course was a little nuts, but it was fun. I was glad Scott was able to spend a little time with my family while they were in town. It was just a super bad week for him because of the time of year, but what can you do when you have to work? I went over to my parents house Saturday morning to hang out before my brother left for the air port and it was the first time all week all the adults sat around and just chatted. It was a rare opportunity and I savored every moment of it. It is hard living far away from some of your family, and spending time with them seems to make me miss them more. But it was great while it lasted!
