Red Bull...it gives you wings




Funny story.
Danny was doing his regular Sunday night cleanings a few weeks ago. I was at home studying, of course. He comes home around 11:30pm and proceeds to tell me how he found this STASH of Red Bull's behind the order sign at Charlies (for those not familiar with Cache Valley, its an ice cream shop). He was looking for an outlet to plug his machine into and came across a box of Red Bull shots. At first he was confused and thought someone had hid it there. He noticed a sticker on the package that said, "You've found a Red Bull STASH, claim this stash at Facebook.com". He's so funny, he was so excited that he found something for free! So we got ready for bed and was about to turn out the light when he remembered he needed to claim his stash! So he gets out the lap top, logs onto facebook to claim his stash and finds out it is this whole game that Red Bull is doing. They had placed these Stashes (a stash consists of 12 Red Bull shots) all over Cache Valley. At this point it is nearly 1am in the morning! I am so tired and just want to go to sleep. Then he finds out that they have hidden like 6 more in the valley and there is a list of clues to find them. Yeah, I bet you can guess what happened next!
He some how convinced me to get out of my warm bed and go with him on this scavenger hunt at 1am in the morning when I have class at 8am! I said to him, "Honey, this is what freshmen in college do, not what married couples do". He proceeded with, "Come on, this will be fun, PLEASE" and of course he used his charm to get me out of bed and dressed ready to go with flashlights in hand.
We found 4 of the 6 and it took us about an hour. And actually it was a blast. Here we were running around campus with flashlights looking in the bushes and trees having a lot of fun together! Here are a few pictures of what we found!
P.S.
We don't drink Red Bull so now we are stuck with 48 Red Bull shots, which run about 2.99 a shot. Let us know if you want some wings....

one of those days...


Ever had one of those days where when you wake up you just know it is not going to go well? I had one of those mornings. It all started with the annoying alarm clock going off at 6:15, only thing was is that I didnt know it was my alarm. I dreampt that it was part of my dream. So to start off the day I was late to work and then when I get there my boss has rearranged my desk and some of my papers (she's kind of controling). And I could go on. But to top it all off, I was really missing Danny...it has been 4 days since I've seen him with 2 more to go. So I come home from work and just lay on my bed and start crying because...well that is what girls do. Danny calls and can tell I'm upset and talks to me for a while but then has to go because he's working, so of course I start crying again. A short 8 min later I hear a knock at the door. I answer it and there is standing, the flower delivery lady, with the most beautiful bouquet of orange flowers for me from Danny. Tears in my eyes I accept the flowers. I am so grateful to have such a loving and thoughtful husband. He is always trying to make me happy and I am so thankful for that. My happiness is always his goal, I couldnt ask for a better man. Just want to tell him that I love him from the front of my hand, around the universe, to the back of my hand! Love you, babe!

Ice Cream with Kristyn


So tonight me and kristyn(for those of you who don't know kristyn she is my 17 yr old sister in-law) were running some errands...mostly just shopping and goofing off. Kristyn wanted an ice cream cone and convinced me to get one too. I don't love ice cream unless it is on top of a cold brownie. So we have our ice cream cones in hand and she is driving down the street headed toward my house. I tell her that I want to scoop off the ice cream and just eat the cone so she rolls down the window for me to do so. I being incredibly smart decide to take off big chucks of the ice cream with my mouth so as to not get my fingers sticky by scooping it off with a finger. I get a giant mouth full to spit out the window and just as i go to spit it out i slam my head into the top part of the window so hard. Hard enough, that I am so shocked at what happened that i suck in and choke on the ice cream. To make matters worse Kristyn is laughing so hard she can barely drive and so of course i start laughing just as hard and end up spitting the ice cream all over my self, my fingers, after trying so hard to spare them, and the all over the car. Needless to say it was the funniest thing that happened all day!! Just thought I would share! Love those moments and some how they happen so often when kristyn is around! Fun times.
