So You Think You Can Dance!!!

What an amazing show. Those of you who know me well, know I have been an admire of the show since it's beginning. I keep hoping that one day one of my dancers will be there. I will keep the hope going. I was so impressed with all of them. It was one of the most amazing concerts I have ever been to. I also got lucky enough to score some backstage passes for after the show. Every single dancer was so gracious and kind. I was impressed their were no Divas to be seen. I might have even got lucky enough to have Thayne come and set something on my dance company!!! Pictures to come as soon as I figure out the whole slide show thing.

You can't call him a gril anymore!!!

I was finally tired of my son being referred to as a girl so I finally took him to the local Super Cuts and got him styled. The stylist was fabulous so a big shout out to her for being so good with him. He did get a bit scared at first and got a little edgy at times but we all managed through it and he looks great. Sorry the after picture sort of sucks but I couldn't get him to pose.

A big woo hoo to the BYU Cougars for having another shut out game. I have a sad feeling that next week when they play my Aggies, that it will make it three in a row. Gooooo Aggies!!!!!!

And for those of you who have always wondered about the cool parts of Barry's job here is a little insight. Every Wednesday night, he get's to engineer the BYU Coaches shows. They are always held at various Ken Garff dealerships in Utah County. He gets to spend his evening putting the coaches show on the air, he gets to sit next to Bronco Mendenhall, and chat it up with the players that come in. What a cool job. One of these times I am going have to set the dvr for America's Next Top Model and make it in their to see what all the fuss is about.

GOOOOOOOOO COUGARS!!!!!

So I totally thought BYU had their work cut out for them today in the game vs. UCLA. Boy was I wrong. Barry, Andrew and myself went to the game and made it until the score was 49 zip before we bailed. Best thing about leaving that early was NO TRAFFIC. If you have ever been in BYU traffic it's almost as bad as L.A. traffic.

I also wanted to give you all an update on how going back to work/day care has been for me and Andrew. We have now survived 4 solid weeks and we are finally both doing better. Andrew has finally quit crying when I leave him and he's finally sleeping at night again. I am so glad we have finally gotten our routine back down. Life is Good!!!

5 days down 175 to go!!!

I have officially survived the first week of school!!!! We should all get together and celebrate!!! This past week was a drainer. It really kicked me in the pants. To top it all off, I finished the week up with an awesome cold. Who in the heck gets a cold in the middle of summer. Just me.

Andrew is adapting to daycare better. He still cries every time I leave but what are you gonna do. He is such a momma's boy it's really sad. Not even Barry can help save him. Today Andrew also survived his first biting incident at Day care some kid bit his arm and then his finger. What a great kid. No worries he'll live through that too.

Off to another fantastic week!!!!!!

The First Day of School!!!

First off, I want to apologize to my loyal friends who keep tabs on me. I have not been to great at updating my blog so I apologize. The past two weeks have been crazy with school getting underway.
Today was the first official day with students. It was crazy! They had us run all eight classes. This year I picked up an extra class so instead of having a prep a day I only have one prep every other day. A bit stressful. Because I am splitting my time between dance and health, I was all over the place today. Hopefully tomorrow will be better since we are on a regular schedule. Keep your fingers crossed that all goes well!!!!
As for Andrew and day care, he is fine after an hour or so. But, he's going through a bit of separation anxiety. Last year it was me who cried everyday. This year it's him. Oh when will all the craziness end????
By the way did I mention that all of this was crazy?
