Busy, Busy, Busy

Last weekend our friend, Jake Ewing, got all of our friends tickets to the Grizzlies hockey game. We did this last year and it was lots of fun. We had our own suite that came with food and all! It was so much fun. I don't really like hockey that much to be honest with you, maybe because I never watch it and I don't know the rules--other than the fact that they have to get the puck into the net, but it was still so much fun. As you can see from looking into the stands, there aren't very many people that attend these games. I think it's kind of funny. It's interesting the people you see at these games. :)

Before the game, you can buy as many pucks as you want, and in between each quarter you can throw the pucks down onto the ice and try to hit people. It sounds a little violent and scary to me, but the boys really enjoyed it! Here is Jake showing off some of his pucks.

Umm, nothing really going on here, just hanging out

Also, for those of you who didn't know, Brady and I started school on Monday. I haven't gone to school since 2005 and Brady hasn't gone since his mission, but we both felt it was time to get back into gear. I'm taking classses to transfer up to Utah State (I won't be commuting to the campus, don't worry), I'm going to be attending one of their extension programs to get my bachelors degree in Management and Human Resources (MHR). I am so excited. Brady is doing Finance, so cool. It's been an interesting adjustment and I find that I'm more tired throughout the work day because I'm staying up late doing TONS of math homework and studying for my other classes. I must admit though, it feels good to be back at school and I feel like I'm doing something "productive" with my life.

Until next time, let me leave with you a song..."The wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round, 'round and 'round, 'round and 'round, the wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round, all through the town." Even though I don't ride the bus to school, I thought this picture was very appropriate.

Eric played hokey in the guns and hoses game and I must say that I was kind of glad that he didn't play this year. It is fun to go out with friends but I have no idea what was going on in the game.

Good Luck with school. That is fun that you guys are going back together. I have tried a couple time and have come to realize that it is just not for me.

Good luck with school. What a hard thing after so many years but it will definitely be worth it.

I remember those late nights studying...not much fun, but well worth it in the end. Also, it's nice that you're going back together. For me, it was nice knowing that Dusty was in the same boat I was. Good luck with everything!

I think that is awesome you guys are doing school! I can't imagine how much work that is, school and a full time job, but you will be so proud of yourself for doing it! I love the pictures from the hockey game. How sad that nobody goes. It looks like a good time. Maybe we will have to give it a try.
