Friday Night Lights LOVE

So the season 3 premiered last Friday on NBC at 8:00 pm and if you missed it (sissy!!) check it out on NBC.com its worth it. If you haven't taking my advice (shame on you) you can catch up online as well. I was kind of upset when season 2 was cut short by the writers strike, but season 3 starts out as a new school year and you get caught up on everyone and their current whereabouts. There are some shockers love link between Lila and Tim (my man showcased below) , Tammy is now running the school... and many more. Everyone tune in to watch episode 2 this Friday!!

Winter fun...

We recently went sledding ( I didn't know if I mentioned this earlier) and we had tons of fun, we even took spike for a little while but he wanted to chase everyone there so we had to take him back home. We had sooooo much fun!! I can't wait to go again! Warm winter wishes to everyone who is feeling this cold brrrr!! I don't know how much longer I can take it! Luckily I may be escaping into California with Tia this March for a reboot.


Tia and Spike

( this is a big step for her she is terrified of dogs...)

Our Family Christmas Photo haha

Tia and Kali love these girls!!

food for thought...

I was cleaning out my folders on the good ole laptop today and found this little twist of the Foot Prints in the Sand poem. I thought it was funny and very thought provoking.

Butt Prints in the Sand

One night I had a wondrous dream,
One set of footprints there was seen,
The footprints of my precious Lord,
But mine were not along the shore.
But then some stranger prints appeared...
And I asked the Lord, "What have we here?
Those prints are large and round and neat,
But Lord, they are too big for feet."
"My child," He said in somber tones,
"For miles I carried you alone.
I challenged you to walk in faith,
But you refused and made me wait."
"You disobeyed, you would not grow,
The walk of faith you would not know...
So I got tired, I got fed up,
And there I dropped you on your butt."
"Because in life there comes a time
When one must fight, and one must climb,
When one must rise and take a stand,
Or leave their butt prints in the sand."
- Author Unknown

How often do we forget that we must rely on the Lord in our lives. I know I am guilty of doing just that, I get too comfortable in life and forget to thank my Savior for walking beside me. Or in a trial I overlook the fact that I can turn to Him and give Him my burdens and He will carry me, so He in turn has to leave me to struggle on my own. I know that if only I reach out for Him and put my faith in Him, He will help me to rise and take a stand, and not to leave my butt prints in the sand. What a great blessing to know that someone is just waiting to help us whenever we ask, to know that faith can really make us whole. I am so grateful for that promise.

Welcome to 2009!

Welcome 2009!! I cannot wait to see what this year has in store for me and those close to me! It has been very exciting thus far and hey we are only two days into it. New Years Eve was very fun (sorry Sissy, Jennie, Baker, Steph, Chase and Babe for missing the hoopla at the Moser's) We had dinner at Tia's house ribs, egg rolls, sandwiches, the works it was amazing. Next we moved the bash to the Larsen's and played games Mafia in particular it was very interesting because all the boys are so competitive and wanted to be the 'killer' they would kill people when they weren't suppose too! It was all in good fun, the we sipped some virgin bubbly until about 2 then headed home.

New Years day was full of excitement I went to bed at 4am and woke up at 4pm...haha but then Me, Tia and Cas headed to the movie Bedtime Stories. Very cute!! I recommend it to anyone who thinks there are no happy endings in real life, and that we don't inevitably control our own destiny. Linsey also said Hasta Leugo to us for a whole week! She is off to the Mexican Rivera on a cruise with Steph and Tory and Dallin I am so jealous!

There will be no resolutions for this year made, I may have implied one but I have decided that I don't want to change anything for only a year I want to change everything forever!! This year I am taking control of my life and I am going to find the person I know is hiding in me somewhere. So with the help of family and friends I am going to make more memories and live. I wish you and yours a wonderful year full of happiness and love!

Christmas Time

I am awake, done with finals, and bored so I thought I would finally catch up on my blogging I have had a busy past few weeks, actually last weekend while at work at Legacy House where I am an activities aide we lost a cottage resident, well about an hour or so later we found her, locked inside my car. She was having a blast wrecking havoc on my radio and playing with my warrior head doll chuck from Hawaii but it was one of the scariest moments of my life! And of course when I called my dad to bring me my spare key he answered the phone “panda express dine in or take out??” and when I said dad I need my spare key his tone turned to stern with a “Jordan” but then I informed him that there was a resident in my car he thankfully rushed me the key!!! What a day what a day. Luckily she was safe and happy. The full essence of this story is lost in words so for a full fledged telling of the tale hunt me down and I will make you see what I saw…not pretty.

But while I was working about a few weeks or so ago my family went to chop down our beloved Christmas tree and documented their adventure...

It looks like they had a blast, I am sad I missed the hot chocolate and toast and the company but maybe next year. I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas and enjoys their families because they are so precious and you don't realize how great they are until they are gone. I know that my Grandpa Luthi's and my Great Grandma Haderlie's spirits will be with our family as we celebrate Christ's birth into this world.

Friday Night Lights

So through my older, wiser, lovely sister Linsey who happens to have pretty good taste in TV shows minus the fact she was a lipstick jungle fan...(we'll let that slide) she introduced me to this little gem of a show. Its currently in its 3rd season which can only be seen by direct tv owners (if you have these on your dvr call me!!!) but seasons 1 and 2 can be seen on NBC.com or HULU.com. The 3rd season will air in February 2009 on NBC and I will give you the one reason this show needs to be watch, Tim Riggins (Taylor Kitsch)
Just loads of yummy. Although he is a good reason to tune into Friday Night Lights, there are other reasons too. Reasons that make me want to move to Texas, it has southern charm as well as High School Football and drama. It also has lots of lovable characters. Give it a shot and I guarantee you won't be disappointed. And hey if it isn't your cup of tea at least you got to have some eye candy!!

Halloween pictures

So Halloween was really fun, although it was a sad time we decided that Grandpa would want us to enjoy ourselves so we had a good time, thank you to all who have helped out our family!! We have the best friends in the world, you have helped more than you know.

For Halloween we went to Salt Lake with some friends and partied the night away literally we danced our costumes off ( I had to throw mine away it got so trashed...)

the weekend before Halloween we went to Brett and Laceys for a party and my mom and aunt decided to crash... but it was fun to have them there!

then on November 1, we went to Micahs after halloween party and had so much fun.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Halloween!!! And are gearing up for a fantastic Thanksgiving.
