Another Utah 1st Down!!


My dad took me this Saturday for a daddy-daughter date. I had a blast. My dad is a HUGE U Of U fan. I love it. He has been for as long as I can remember. Even when I was younger and dating if one of my dates showed up in blue it was like..."Your not a BYU fan are ya?"
Well he and my mom have season tickets, and my dad asked me if I wanted to join him to the opening night of this season. It was fun. There were tons of people all decked out in Utah gear. I didnt have any Ute stuff since I went to Utah State so I had to run and grab some stuff so I would fit in.

Here we are getting ready to head out on our date.

My dad is a blast to hang out with. He is super funny, and we have a lot in common, so we generally laugh at the same things, such as silly fans making a huge deal out of a call.
He spoiled me rotten with yummy stadium food, and of course kettle corn. Holy cow that stuff is addicting.
He even packed a little bag with treats and a blanket in case I got cold.
He has always been so much and has taken me out for daddy daughter dates since I was little. I remember when I got my first journal and was old enough to write it in, my frist entry was when my dad took me to a Utah Jazz game! What fun memories. I feel so lucky to have such an awesome, hard working, fun dad.
After they totally kicked butt and had their first win they had a firework show after. I love fireworks. And just when I thought summer had come to an end that gave me a little boost. What a fun time.
Go Utes!!

Surprise, Surprise, Puppy Surprise

I talked to my boss today and it's official, I will back to a full time employee. I don't know exactly how I feel about it because ever since the parade has been over its been really nice having half the day to do whatever I please. But it will be good for the ol wallet and Lb. factor(I tend to eat out and shop a LOT more)
So since I will be full time, I am going to be moving out of the storage unit into a real desk. Our dear friend Brian had to move upstairs so now there is a new opening.
And moving into a new desk out from my little corner I cant do my secret anymore.
My secret my dear friends and family is I would sneak my dog of choice into the building really early and have them stay at work with me! No one would know but Ang, sitting next to me. Rosie is the best dog to take to work because she sits in the corner and doesn't make a sound. Anytime she needs to stretch or something I would hurry and sneak her beef jerky.
I would miss my dogs during the day. Rosie was a complete gem but one day I decided to bring in Ecko and she almost blew it for me! She was sneezing all the time and I had to keep saying "excuse me" so people would think it was me.
Plus, she wouldn't stay in her corner and every time someone would come down she would want to meet and greet them.
So there was no other way...she had to hide. My friend LaNae saw her cute head resting on the leg of my chair and snapped this photo. Thanks for not ratting me out LaNae!

And once I scooted my chair in you would never know!
Unfortunately I will not be able to bring my dogs into work since I have to move.

Oh well. It was fun while it lasted.
