Go Lady Huskies!!!

I am so glad that I was able to go to the girl's championship game last night. Our Lady Huskies played SOOSOOSOSO well. I am very impressed by their aggression and ability.

North Fremont Huskies win district championship
ST. ANTHONY -- Shouts of joy, tears, hugs and a whole lot of smiles was the scene on the North Fremont side of the gym at South Fremont High School Thursday night. The Huskies became district champions with a 44-27 over West Jefferson. "This was our dream," said North Fremont coach Ben Lenz after receiving the champion trophy and helping his girls cut down their winning net. "I've been here a couple different times and fell short. To finally see that happen for the school, for the kids, is just, I can't explain it.Updated: Thursday, February 12, 2009 10:56 PM MST

I couldn't help but remonise about my own days out on the court. I LOVED BASKETBALL! It really was the highlight of my high school days. We practiced hard and tried to play even harder. I was able to play with so many talented friends. We worked hard and we actually were very good.

Every summer, just like the girls today, we spent a good month going to tournaments, camps, and pretty much anything Coach wanted us to do. We did Saturday League in Idaho Falls every spring, playing teams like Bonneville, Hilcrest, Shelley, and Skyline. It was so much fun. We trashed Coach's already trashed car, and were pretty much like sisters.

We were ranked for State and played undefeated almost my whole senior year. In the end, just like every year, we crumbled. Something would happen during Districts that would break us down. Granted, we played very tough teams. We played teams that won State the year before or even the year after. No excuses, we had beaten them before, but not when it mattered.

Last night that trend ended and we have our first Girl's Basketball District Champions. I am so happy that finally we have crossed that bridge. There is no longer the idea that it has never happened before, because it did. This group of girls is very talented and they have paved the way. Coach Lenz deserves so much to go to state because he is an amazing coach.

I hope one day that Hailee will love basketball and be able to play for the same school and coach that I did. She enjoys the games, so that is a good sign!

Just a little thought from the past. Keep looked for pictures from the past too!!!

She is EVERYWHERE!

Hailee is a travelin' fool. She has a very busy schedule. If she isn't at home playing, eating cheerios, or riding her horse; she is at Misty's playing with Alison and getting her hair done. Sleeping over at Aunt Cathys and taking baths, convincing her grandparents to crawl around the floor with her. She is a very BUSY and SNEAKY little chick. Here are some pics from her busy life.

You know my dad already has a bad back, but he is always on the floor when Hailee is romping around. They learn all sorts of things that I don't know if she should. Such as: rolling off the couch, spitting food, and standing up in the rocking chair. Oh well that is what grandpas are for...

This is a super awesome bath toy at Aunt Cathy's house. We stayed there this last weekend because of some guests, but it was worth it! These little light up creatures spout out water. It can get pretty messy, but Hailee loved them. She would try to pick them up, but they shot water at her. She would laugh and then try again. She was so proud of herself when she finally got the turtle. (He shot out the most!)

Super Bowl Entertainment and She's a TWIN!

GO STEELERS!!!!

We had a rockin' party with tons of good food, entertainment, and of course the game!

Thanks for inviting us Heather and Ben!

The kids were by far my favorite part, although the tasty treats are pretty close.

Hailee found herself a new binki-great idea Berrick!

Then of course we had to get back to a normal life. Every morning we try to keep Hailee asleep so we can get out faster. This is hard for me because I love dressing Hailee up and giving her loves before work. I have had to skip this for 2 reasns.

1st we don't want her up

2nd her friend/babysitter's daughter Alison wants to dress her

It works out well and she is always so cute when I finally pick her up.

Anyway- today she had little nobby buns on top. I took them out to see that she has a resemblance to Will Ferrell- you be the judge

Crazy Hair Girl!

Look at all that hair on this little girl. She amazes me each day with more hair to play with! Oh if only that smile could really show you how much fun we have!

Sorry I tipped the camera at the end.

Now really who wouldn't hope for a good snowday if they could stay home with her!

I found this picture here and I think it reminds me of Hailee Girl sooooo much.

Well with more hair, but that is comming very quickly these days!

DANCING QUEEN!! YOUNG AND SWEET !!!

Hailee is a dancing girl. She gets very hyper right before bed time every night. This scene is just after her bath and right before her night time bottle.

Sorry, I know it is dark and from the back, but I liked this video the best! She really gets her groove on. Oh, and watch out for the fall at the end she wasn't hurt at all just so you know.

She does this little boogy all the time. She loves when my phone rings and when we listen to music. She is already practicing her coordination!

Also the mouth grab at the laptop. Yeah that is a constant too. She is all about her mouth. She has no teeth, yet though!

WHAT A BIG GIRL!!!

Does anyone know the E.T. scene with all the toys and he is hiding in the closet. Well we tried to pull this off and she thought it was so funny. I AM TOTALLY IN LOVE WITH THIS GIRL!!!!

Miss Hailee is growing up so fast. She is EvErYWheRE!!! She loves her toys and other little kids. She grabs kids and won't let go. She hugs them and holds them like they are her doll.



THis is an example of what she does to other kids. She just LOVES them and want to HOLD them so tight.



Her cousin Porter got caught in her arms on Sunday and asked "Could you get her off of me?" So funny!!!! She is just so friendly and lovable. This has been a fun weekend. We were able to hang out a whole extra day due to the winter storm. Sometimes I just don't want to let her go, but she arches her back and whines "PUT ME DOWN!"

It has been esspecially hard going to work since Christmas. I hate leaving every morning when she is sleeping. I have found that I am leaving work even when I should stay just so I can get to her faster. She is already so big and I can't believe how fast it is going.









Beyond Hailee we have been very busy this month. Our furnace was going on and off so we were packing up every other night. FINALLY it is fixed and we are back in our warm home. Thanks so much to Cathy for letting us come over at all times of the night!






My class went skiing at Kelly Canyon on Friday and will be going again this Friday. It is a lot of fun watching the kids and interacting with them outside the classroom. I have been waking up sore in my shoulders. It takes a lot out of you going up the tow rope and down the bunny hill. Hopefully most of the students will be on the mountain this week!!!!
Curt has been busy with the snow and everything else they do. He had the Klondike this past Saturday and had a lot of fun. He enjoys working with the youth in the Scouting Program. I am so glad he is able to work with Joey.
So sorry for the delay in posting but life is busy and I just have been lax on my pix taking.
