Snow College
is playing for the National Championship this Saturday!
As you probably know Karl and I are Alumni of Snow College in Ephraim, Utah. We are so proud to associated with this institution and are equally proud of the Football Coaches and their staff for the integrity and class they, and their players, show on and off the field. Karl and I wish the Badgers much success in the game and have all the confidence in them that they will bring the title home! Unfortunately, Jan can't be there; but, Karl will and I sure you will all hear him cheering....GO BADGERS!!!

Fight Night.............

I never thought in a million years that I would turn out to be a fight fan.....surprisingly it was so much fun! These guys are true athletes and it is so much fun to watch them work their magic. We had a great time and dinner was fantastic, we ate at Deigo's at the MGM and it was a great Mexican Restaurant. We got some pics at the fight; but, they were on our cell phone and aren't that great but we are going to show them anyway......


Karl and I at the Main Event! Not a great pic;
but, you can see Hatton on the screen in the background


The Winner was announced,
of course the losers corner threw in the towel!


Karl right after the Main Event.....it was awesome!


Again, pics not great but it is the Winner, Ricky Hatton!


Okay, so you can't really tell but that is Lennox Lewis

And now in this corner.........

So Karl was driving home (to Henderson) from a job interview in Las Vegas and the local Sports Radio (KWWN: ESPN Radio in Las Vegas) decided to have a contest for an announcer (they needed someone to announce the weigh-ins on at the Boxing Championships Friday night); so, Karl went down and auditioned and the listeners picked the winner......which would be KARL!!! Yes, it is true! Karl is announcing the weigh-ins on Friday Night at the MGM for the World Championship Unification Bout. He also won tickets to the Title Match on Saturday, dinner at the MGM, an autographed (Ricky Hatton and Paulie Malignaggi) boxing glove and $20 bucks! Oscar De La Hoya will also be there too. We are so excited for him. Good Luck babe, I'm not a big boxing fan; but, I am a HUGH Karl FAN!!!

Shout out to Katie and Al

I just wanted to give a shout out to Katie and Al for being such a sweet family. I really enjoy their blog and I am glad I had the opportunity to meet them and have them in my life. I am sad that I live so far away and I don't think they will EVER know what their presence in the world has meant to people! Your positive attitude and love of life is an inspiration.
You guys are the BOMB!!


Katie and Al, aren't they cute!!

Threading.....

So, you may have heard of Plucking and Waxing; but, have you heard of Threading your Brows? Well, I decided to bite the bullet and let them take pictures of me going through the process so that you can see it being done. I have had waxing done and it is okay, hurts a little; but, it's okay. Threading doesn't really hurt and they do a really good job. I have had this done before so it was nice to have it done again. It takes less then 5 minutes.
Here are the pics.....


Hopefully, you can see the thread as she holds it in
each hand and her mouth...


A close up shot......they are so talented!


Another view of this unique procedure!!
