blue, through and through

i found the girls doing this in their bedroom the other day.

i almost shed a tear! first because i love my girls know the cougar fight song (ok, just part of it). second, the thought i may be raising some cheerleaders! ha, ha!


when we left utah (3 years ago, i can't believe it has been THAT long), i was sure i wouldn't miss a thing but my family and friends.

boy, was i wrong.

i want to go to temple square and just be there, in december with all the lights, at conference time with all the people, in the spring with the beautiful flowers.

i want to go to "the BYU". i miss the bookstore, the creamery, the students, the traffic (just kidding). i miss BYU and it's atmosphere. isn't that funny.

i miss the mountains and canyons. i want to go for a drive in the canyon and take a hike. i want to see bridal veil falls. i want to know where i am going. lol.

most of all i miss my family. i want to do girls night with sally and watch a movie and have some fun treats. i want to see my girls light up when they see sally and the kitty's, oh and brian too! i want to see jeremy and janie cute and married. i want be there for janie's graduation. i want to go to erin's house and talk and talk and talk not knowing that 3 hours have passed. i want to have porter and olivia be good friends again. i want to have dinners with kristina and eric. i want to go to gutter butt (isn't that what you call it?) and have crafty nights with heather and ann.

i have such great memories of utah and my family there. i just wanted to do this post so you would all KNOW how much i miss you and to tell you to LOVE IT UP!!

you have all got it good being in that area plus having family around. LOVE EACHOTHER and the time you all have together.

The girls are so cute! I'll have to teach them the UVSC fight song :) I miss Utah too. I never thought I would. I want to take Brianna hiking to places like Bridal Vale. I hate not knowing where are the fun spots are!
P.S you didn't mention anything about The O.G! Looking back it was a good time working there :)

Now I am crying! I love living away, but hate it at the same time. I miss my family and a million things about Utah. I understand the Indiana landscape....where are my mountains so I always know what directions I am heading! I hope you are liking Indy though.

Sally said...

Thanks for making me cry! I miss you guys like crazy all the time. It isn't the same since you left. I feel like I miss out on so much with your kiddos and I think about how much I would love girls night with you all the time. That video was so cute. Give them hugs and kisses for me. I love you guys!

GO BIG BLUE!! I love it! Way to brainwash the girls while they are young. I miss Utah and 'the BYU' too!

Leora said...

That's awesome. You've got some good girls if that's the song they are learning! Woot!

When we ask Claire what a cougar says, she responds, "Go Cougars!" LoL.

We miss you guys.

Heather said...

Come and play and soak up the mountains!!!! We would love to have you. Great job on capturing the cheering!

Jessie said...

They are so cute! However, I was greatly disturbed hearing that BYU was the best! EVERYONE knows that USU is the best, Go AGGIES!! LOL. Gotta love school rivalry right?

Wow really? apparently they do not know that I got very unsubstantiated parking ticket at the BY or they wouldn't be singing about it. Jk, they are so pretty, I wish we could hang out! We miss you too.
