IT'S SNOWING!!

So between Christmas week and the last two days, we've gotten a good amount of snow.
My Brother, who lives in Texas, sent us a couple of pictures of all the snow they got there.

Here they are...Ready???



So I thought I'd send him a picture of what I have, most of which came from the last two days!
The bottom of my ruler is 20. The snow is at 7!! That makes....13 inches. Un-touched snow in the back yard.

We all just laughed when we saw the pictures, which I'm sure is the reason he sent them. He's lived here. He know how it can be. We took a picture at Christmas at my parents of their sidewalk in their backyard and the snow came halfway up my thigh. I know I'm not super tall, but that is still quite a bit of snow.

I don't feel like I can complain. We were in a drought for how many years? 7?10? Who remembers...And now after a couple of good storms everyone is yelling, WE'VE HAD ENOUGH!!
Too bad it can't just snow like this in the mountains so we still get the water, but we don't have to drive in it. Oh well. Since we have it, we might as well play in it right?

HAVE FUN! BIGGEST SNOWMAN WINS!

Biggest Loser Finale!

It finally came! The Biggest Loser Finale. I had to wait a whole week and it was the longest week of my life! And then I have to sit through two hours of the show to finally see IF the girl I wanted had it in her...AND SHE DID!!! The girl that I really wanted to win (Michelle), did!
There was a lot of drama on this season. But they came to do what it was they were there to do!
Here is the before and after picture of the winner!!

Doesn't she look great! My favorite part about this show is watching the finale when you get to see the pictures of how they looked when they got to the "Ranch" and then how they look today. So many of these people look like completely different people. Here is my favorite example...

Before!!

After!! Look how great they look!

I love how motivational and inspirational this show can be. When people are really there to make changes in their lives and for the right reasons. Next season starts on January 6th. I know you are all interested in watching it again with me... As a teaser...Someone passes out (a 63 year old contestant :( And there is a 19 year old on that weighs 454 pounds. Wouldn't it be awesome if he were the winner!

Stay tuned!!! (Channel 5, Tuesday nights from 7-9pm) :)

Mo-Tab Christmas Concert!

I went to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas Concert last weekend. It was SOO good. And expecially fun was to be able to see my sister singing in it! YAY BEE!!

(I stole this picture from her...Thanks Bee!)

I wish I had one of her standing right behing Brian Stokes Mitchell! There were a couple of time on the big screens when it was just him singing and she was the background behind him. AWESOME!!
My other sister and I took two of my nieces to see it. The Friendly Beast song was the highlight song for them. I loved the Messiah songs too and the Organ Solo that the organist played with his FEET!!! It was fantastic! I really wanted to give him a standig ovation, but not by myself.
What a fun evening! We had such a great time there. If anyone hasn't heard Brian Stokes Mitchell sing...Well, frankly you're missing out. I could listen to him sing to me all night!
The story by Edward Hermann was awesome too. When I watched it the next day on The Spokn Word I totally had goose-bumps! It was great!
So glad I got tickets from the random drawing!! It was well worth the show! Good job Sis!!
