Beautiful Flowers

I have received so many flowers these past two weeks ... I received these today:

I received these the day before my anniversary.

I received two of these. One on the 15th, for our anniversary. The other one a few days ago.

Let me explain what is going on. Dain always sends me flowers for our anniversary and then for my birthday. They are a whole ten days apart (I know, great planning). Well, the flower company is doing business with the radio station. Last year, when they started doing business together, they asked him for our "special dates". And this year, they sent flowers both dates. The one before our anniversary to both of us and the tulips today for my birthday on Sunday. The roses a few days ago were to say "welcome" to the new contract for this year. lol So I'm surrounded by flowers!!!! He officially gave me red roses on the day of our anniversary. His were long stemmed and beautiful. When the second set came, I put some in our bathroom and the rest I mixed in with the old ones. The second set were short stemmed. Hey, I'm not complaining.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

Over the years ...





Today is our 9th anniversary. I love you Sweetie!!!

P90X Core Synergistics

So for Christmas I received the P90X workouts. I had been dying to try them. I'm now doing week 2 and THEY ROCK! I'm so excited. I have noticed a difference right away. My body is sore in a different area every day. The workouts are made to challenge a different set of muscles with each workout and thus helping you get stronger and not hit a plateau. I can tell that having done a lot of power yoga helped me as well. So here's to a better, stronger and more fit 2009!!!!

Family Time

Little by little, I'm finishing our Utah trip. I didn't realize we did so much! We were lucky to spend time with both sides of the family. The Pickett's and the Craig's. It was wonderful!!!!

Homeless Shelter

One of our Christmas traditions is to go to the Homeless Shelter in SLC to help out. We were there on the second day of our trip. Dain had been going there for years when I met him. He went with the radio station. They broadcast from there and ask for donations. It was like a family reunion since Dain used to sit on their board of directors. Great tradition!

Skiing Rocks

So here are a few snapshots of us skiing. I took more video than pictures. I'll put them on youtube and link them as they're pretty large files.

The whole famdamly! We had so much fun and skiied SO hard ... Emi was our ripper this year. Now that they're older and can keep up with us, we get to hit the good runs. Emi discovered powder skiing so we were off piste most of the time. Lots of fun! Dain is in his ski instructor uniform here. He taught several days.

In this picture, Dain was blocking Alyssa so I asked him to lean back. Alyssa thought that meant her too. It turned out pretty funny.

Christian is smack in the middle in the white helmet. He was the only one on a board this year. None of us even took our boards up.

Aly cheesing it for the camera.

Emi, Dain and Christian in the chair in front of us. This is the Snake Creek lift at Brighton.

Christmas Ducks

We rented this awesome house that had a deck over a stream in the backyard. The stream was full of ducks!!! Emi played outside and made a snowman too.

Spam Christmas Catch Up

Phew! being gone for two weeks is hard to catch up on!!! So I'm starting with our early Christmas in Sugar Land before our trip. We opened presents on the 21st before leaving later that day for Utah .... It was a lot of fun! Dain bought matching Spam tops for everyone.
