We have moved...

We haven't moved, but we should probably start paying rent at SUU's library. We have spent more time there than we have at our own home this semester. During finals week there is a computer lab that is open 24/7 and we have had a couple "sleepovers" there. Isn't it lame that this is the best post I could come up with over a period of one month? Yes, we are boring and nerds. Here is a picture of the "nerd dome".

For those who missed the game...

Halloween

This year for Halloween, we borrowed our costumes from my sister Erin. Abbel and I are not big fans of Halloween, so the thought of buying something new just for a few parties did not intrigue us one bit. Thank you so much Mike & Erin for letting us steal your idea and costumes. We received a ton of compliments. Here are a few pictures of a Halloween party hosted by our friends Fesi & Holly.

The boys...

The girls...(minus me)

Disneyland & California Adventure

This past weekend, my mom and I had a great time in California. I was invited along to push my mom in a wheelchair and I have to say, that was one of the hardest things to do physically. I forgot how BIG Disneyland is and then on top of that, California Adventure is somewhat big as well. Even though I was sweating non-stop, mascara running down my face, and my muscles aching, I definitely had a great time! My mom was invited to go along with my brother Zack and his family.  I enjoyed watching their kids soak up the parks. It was so fun watching them and seeing how excited they were to be there just like I was when I was their age. Here are a bunch of pictures that I took. Just remember that I was very sweaty, that's why I'm not in many of the pictures. 

Jedi Training-I don't really like Star Wars but this show was one of the highlights of the trip.

Chazz & Zyan were both lucky enough to have been chosen to fight against Darth Vader.  They were taught a sequence of moves to use against the bad guys. It was quite hilarious to watch. 

Zyan received a not so extreme makeover as a princess...

Northern Arizona Adventure

This past weekend, SUU played Northern Arizona University (NAU). My brothers Isaac & Josh decided to drive down from Salt Lake to pick me up and head to Arizona. My oldest brother Jake, drove from his home in Tucson and met up with us in Flagstaff for the game. He brought along his two cute sons Matani and Naish and they definitely made the trip more fun.
Unfortunately, SUU came home with their second loss in the season (The final score was 42-39).
Thank you Jake, Josh, Isaac, Matani, and Naish for supporting Abbel! It was nice to see all of you...especially the kids.

What a cow!

What a hog!

What a fun time!

These are our friends April & Paul who invited us to go. Thanks you two! You're hilarious.

SUU's first game & win of the season

Last Thursday, Southern Utah University played Dixie State and the final score was 36-7 favoring SUU. Abbel played the entire game, made four catches for the total of 32 yards. It was a very nice win for the Thunderbirds. Last year, they received a brand new coaching staff and have been doing very well since. The next game will be this Saturday, playing in California. GO ABBEL!

One of Abbel's best friends, Jared, proposed to his girlfriend before the start of the game. Everyone whipped out their cameras to capture it. Here is one of the pictures I took. Congrats Jared and Sara!
