Well finals are finally over and I couldn't be happier! This will be our first summer as a married couple and we are SO excited! Although today was our first day of summer, it snowed and feels like the middle of winter outside...how weird! Here are some pics from what we've been up to lately...ps. Mom, update your blog!
Basketball: Well sadly, the John Denver Nuggets lost on Tuesday night. I dont remember the exact score but we lost by one point! It was a very intense game and as usual I was the loud, yelling wife. I'll recap the last 14 seconds for you....The other team comes down the court with 14 seconds on the clock and they're down by three. For some reason we couldn't get a single rebound and they got off three shots, making none. Foul called on us. 5 seconds on the clock, there "shooter" inbounds the ball, runs to the top of the key (more like half court), ball fed back to him and....he shoots and scores. Why didn't Russell's team just foul? Who knows, coaching error! We went into overtime and ended up losing by one. I have relived this game everyday since Tuesday...aka Russell can't get over it!
BUT on a happier note...
Football: Still undefeated! I have to admit, I could watch these boys play football everyday! The John Denver Broncos are now in the semi finals. Wednesday's game was FREEZING but great. My personal favorite highlights...Up by one touchdown, the other team managed to score again in under a minute! Yikes. But we answered back in just one play. John Hayne (QB) ran to the fifty and threw the ball to speedy lil Russell in the end zone! I cheered and yelled "That's MY husband!" The other highlight was the best interception I've ever seen. Matt tipped the ball and then preceded to tip it SIX times! At one point the ball was flopping behind his back and he managed to some how catch the ball...It was really something you just had to see! They play again tomorrow night...Go BRONCOS!
Not a whole lot going on around here but I thought I'd post what we've been doing lately. With finals closer than ever, we've been doing a lot of studying, writing papers and finishing semester projects. My dialysis presentation went very well...I got 100%! I have one more presentation this week and it's one I'm looking forward to for my Foodservice Management class. This past weekend we went to Russell's parents in West Jordan and watched conference with them. I spent Saturday painting pictures I drew for my presentation (as pictured). Its a theme day presenation and ours is "Charlie Brown Day" in honor of Charles Schulz birthday. Anyway, they took way too long to paint but it was worth it in the end. We also celebrated Bryan's Bday (Russell's brother) and I here's a pic of the awesome bowling lane cake Kim (Russell's Mom) made. Russell took a final today for his anatomy lab-one down, many to go though! Both his bball and football team are still undefeated and doing very well in the tournament. Hopefully they'll keep winning this week since it's the last time the boys will all play together. I'll try to remember to take some pics and post them later in the week!
