*Kids say the darnest things*

Ryan and I had just gotten done doing some shopping at Walmart the other day so we were waiting in line to pay and the little boy in front of us kept staring at me - and of course I stared right back at him! :)

Out of no where he yells

"MOMMY LOOK THAT LADY HAS SPARKLES ON HER FACE"

the mom turns around and says... Oh son, you mean freckles?

hmm.....I have never been told I have sparkles on my face before!

I couldn't help but laugh my head off right in from of the mom!

Kids really do say the darnest things even if they don't know you!

1 Year since I said "YES"!!

On May 2nd Ryan and I celebrated being engaged for a year!! Time passes by so fast!!!

Radio Winner??

We were on our way to the hospital while listening to 105.5 The Hawk.

They announced to be caller number 5 and answer 3 questions right to win a Mothers Day gift.

Ryan said what the heck and just tried (we never call into a radio station).

He got right through and was caller number 5!!

Questions:

1. What city in Colorado are coins made?

2. Which one of the following is not a berry - Banana, Peach or Tomato?

3. What river separates two cities (don't remember the cities) in Africa?

4. What is Mickey Mouses group name?

Ryan being the smartie pants he is WON!!!!! :)

The DJ asked if he had a mothers day present ready for his mom or wife and he said no - so the DJ is giving us double prizes!!!! :) YAY for free gifts!

Bilateral Deflux Injection

I have had 5 kidney infections within the past 8 months which has not been fun!! We knew something was wrong but it took a LONG time to figure out the problem. After taking many antibiotics, ultra sounds, CT Scan and a VCUG we finally found out my ureter valve was allowing a back flow of uring into my kidneys causing infection. There are two ways to fix it doing surgery to elongate the ureters or Injecting a deflux agent to make the ureters bulk up.

I am doing better, there is still alot of pressure from the procedure and spasms that come and go in my ureters. Good thing for pain pills!! :)

Happy Birthday MARCH 17th

HIDE & SEEK

This may seem very odd and child-like but it was the funnest night we have ever had!!!

We played Hide & Go Seek for 4 hours in our little house.

If you don't beleive me that is was fun TRY IT!

Make sure you turn the lights off and cover the windows so there is no light in the house.

For the weekend we decided to head up to the Cabin for Ryan's birthday. It was a great weekend to get away, just too bad there wasn't enough snow to snowmobile all day. But we did have a blast staying up late playing games with the fam.

HAPPY 22nd BIRTHDAY TO RYAN!!!!

We are the CHAMPIONS my friends!!!!!

SPARTAN PRIDE

BYU-Idaho Flag Football Champions!!!!

This semester Ryan and his friends decided to put together a flag football team. They were unstoppable!!! They came a long way from their first game where they continually asked the referees the rules. Once they got those down the rest was history! They started with just one game a week and boy did they have something to prove. We were all surprised when the tournament came and before they knew it they were scheduled to play in the stadium for the championship.

There were some close games but I was there biggest fan and they couldn't lose if I was there. I was what they liked to call their good luck charm! The championship game was something that even a deathly cold couldn't keep Ryan away. They won with a little help from the Miami Dolphin Wild Cat offense and a devilish defense. The opponents (Turtlebath) were a little frustrated on the opening drive when my champion husband chased down the quarterback and and tipped the ball into the air as he delivered the pass. Luckily for the SPARTANS, Ryan tipped the ball directly to himself, after he gained possession, he scurried 80 yards for the touchdown!! The Ecstatic Spartans never looked back in route to a 30-6 VICTORY over the so called Turtlebathers. Ryan was also involved in the second touchdown of the game giving the Spartans a 12-0 lead going into halftime. With his stellar performance his teammates deemed him MVP!! The next morning he asked me, "How was it sleeping with a champion?" HAHA

The Spartans were so sad the season was over, they decided to play in a Basketball league. I am sure I will be attending all of those games to witness the Spartans continue their quest for victory.

GO SPARTANS!!!!

*Happy HALLoween* 2009

First Halloween as a married couple....hmmm....what to be?!
We decided the afternoon of Halloween to be ....I think you guessed it-
Kelsey as DICE and Ryan as a RUBIKS CUBE!!!!
We went to the Inskeeps house for a little party and then out to my parents to be the FIRST trick or treaters for them that evening!!! We had a blast and hope to save the outfits because they were a little more work then we thought but they turned out GREAT!!

-HoNeYmOoN-

We had a blast on our Honeymoon. We heard from so many people a Cruise is the way to go, so we took their advice and ran with it. Our ship sailed to Catalina Islands & Ensanada Mexico. It was the trip of a lifetime!!

In Catalina Islands we spent the day walking around shops, sitting by the beach and then ended off our day snorkeling. I got a little freaked out because the fish were WAY too close. It turned out to be super fun though and we had a blast.

We enjoyed going to fun shows everynight on the ship. There were comedians, musicals and of course BINGO everynight!!!!

Next stop was Ensanada, Mexico!!! MY FAVORITE!! I was looking forward to a long day of shopping!! We took a bus about 45 minutes out of town to a famous spot called La Bufadora (the blow-hole).

We also enjoyed walking through the flea markets. We were able to buy some fun things there to remember our fantastic trip to Mexico!!!!

Ryan had never swam in the ocean so we took a taxi and spent an afternoon on the beach!!!
