Sadie 09

Few!!!!! Okay so like this is the first Sunday in a long list of Sunday's that I have actually been able to post!!!! Wow like hope you guys still read this blog and don't think I have left it to die or something. I just have been major scatterbrained and it's been way way crazy!!!! So anyways Feb. 7 was the night of the Sadie Hawkins dance here in College Station Texas. It was the absolute best date that I have ever been on!!!!! Katheryn Cuhna a girl in my ward asked me and she decorated my front lawn with spiderwebs saying "Will you swing with me to Sadie?" It was pretty awesome.

So the day of the dance we all go to an Aggie Basketball game which was fun even though they lost. Then we went home got ready and went off to Amanda's house for pictures. You may recognize many people in these next pics as I went with the Mormon group yet again. So here are some pics.

The names of the people:
Pink- Amanda and Tyler
Red- Me and Katheryn
Yellow- Ryan and Andrea (she isn't Mormon)
Green- Sarah and Aron (he isn't Mormon)
Teal- Katie and Matt
Light Blue- Cody and Jamie
Dark Blue- Nate and Katie (she isn't Mormon)

Okay so we all piled into the car and all the girls blindfolded the guys. Which wasn't cool. As you can see me and Nate had our fun in our car. WE all had no idea what was going on and were totally confused.


So the girls then took us to a park took off our blindfolds and their was a picnic sitting out for us with our Sadie buckets. The Sadie buckets are these buckets that the girls decorate and give to us with a bunch of stuff in them. Mine had a bunch of Spider-man stuff in it and the outside was decorated with Spider-man comics which was way cool!!!! At the park we swung on the sings and played on the playground.



Then we went to the dance. Stayed there for awhile and then it was off to Wally World to have a picture scavenger hunt. That included such pictures as Man is girls clothing, helicopter, a different language, a referee, giving someone flowers, three matching hats, and a bunch of other stuff. The night was way fun and for most of the pictures check them out on Facebook. Miss you guys a ton and I promise I will start posting more regularly now. Be sure to check out the countdown and the poll. See ya'll later.

A Texas Spider-man Christmas

Merry late Christmas to ya'll... or I mean everybody. I hope everybody had as great a Christmas as I did. I didn't get what I wanted most though and that was going back to Utah but Santa did leave me a lot of Spider-man goodies. :) Okay so first of all I think this was my first Christmas ever that it was 60 degrees during the day. It was crazy my dad was outside grilling steaks for dinner on Christmas!!! In Shorts!!!! I miss the snow so much and I am having skiing withdrawals. So let me tell you about all the Spider-man stuff I got!!!!!

I got the Spider-man Web of Shadows Video game which is pretty darn cool.

My sisters gave me this gift and I think it is the best gift ever!!! It is the last twenty years of Spider-man Comics on CD. Over 250 Comics on my computer!!!! My mind almost blew when I got it.

This one Amanda my friend gave to me. Sorry for the blurry pic but she gave me a hologram picture of Spider-man. It is awesome and he moves across the pic when you look at it differently.

I got a big fat Spider-man pen and it is totally sweet!!!!

What would Christmas be without a Spider-man Bouncy Ball?

I got Spider-man Vitamins from Santa to help me stay healthy!!!!

I got Go Spidey and Spider Eights (Go fish and Crazy Eights)

I got ten Spider-man Thank you cards so that I can thank everybody!!!!

Brooke one of my friends gave me a Spider-man Card that had this awesome maze inside!!!

The Garlicks (You may remember Nate Garlick who is my friend.) Got me this Spider-man Balloon that is totally awesome!!!!

Sorry if my gifts make you totally jealous but that's what happens when you love Spider-man as much as me. Don't worry I got other stuff for Christmas also not just Spider-man collectibles. I am not a total freak nerd. Miss you guys soooooo much!!!!
Oh and by the way a girl in English class started to call me Co Co and then the whole class started calling me that. None of you got that on the poll. I know I know Sexy Beast was just too tempting of an answer. ;-)

What the Heck is This White Stuff?!

Okay so it like freaking snowed here!!!!! It hasn't snowed here from what I know in like fifteen years. People have lived here their whole lives and never seen snow. Well I think that I brought the snow down here with me because we got like a legit inch or two of snow for one day!!! It happened to be on Wednesday night which is mutual night for us (for church). So we had a huge snowball fight and a snowman building contest. Well me being from Utah I came prepared with thermals on under my PJ pants. A real snow coat and skiing gloves. I wasted in the snowball fight. Then we played a white elephant game and I got something really gay like I always do. lol It was a ton of fun. Hope you guys enjoy the snow there because it is totally melted now and I probably won't see it again. Miss you guys so much. Don't forget to vote on the new pole. If you people think I can marry someone like Taylor Swift you got another thing coming because man I could not handle her singing country songs all day long. :)

OMG ITS SNOW!!!!!

Me and Patrick playing the white elephant game.

Katie, Patrick, Nate, and me. Yes I do look retarded in that picture and pretty much every picture.

The other team's snowman We totally kicked their buts.

My team's snowman. I was like the only one who knew to wear gloves or probably had gloves to bring to a snowball fight!!!!

Quirky Things

Okay so here is that chain thingy that has been going around with the quirks. Before I do that though I want to open with a joke. Now Kristie did tell me this joke so I must give kudos to her.
Why couldn't the boy from Provo go to the Bathroom? Because all the Hall passes had been intercepted.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA okay I am done lol.


Quirk #1
I am completely and absolutely obsessed with the UTAH UTES!! I bleed red (wait everybody does) and wear red all the time. People in school say they only see me in red and nothing else.

Quirk #2
I don't like wearing jeans. Call me crazy but I don't find them comfortable and like shorts preferably basketball shorts.

Quirk #3
I have the ability to sense any Spider-man merchandise and have the uncontrollable desire to buy it no matter how much or how lame it is. I call it my Spider Sense.

Quirk #4
I have a tendency to kinda freak out when I play video games or any kind of competition game and get really into it. I tend to pop my jaw, jump up and down, yell, and ya basically freak out.

Quirk #5
Whenever I play the piano or play my bone (trombone) I really get into it apparently and move with the music and saw and sorta dance in my seat I guess.

Quirk #6
I am a really bad dancer but whenever a song that I know comes on I have the uncontrollable urge to start dancing and if the songs vocals are high pitched I sing them also. The people around me love that.

Quirk #7
My last quirk is a incurable disease that plagues hundreds every day. It is called majorfanitis, whenever I see a person with a BYU shirt on or and BYU paraphernalia I always check to see if I have a Utah shirt on and am disappointed if I don't. I let all BYU fans know who is boss, (the Utes) and have the urge to always display my love for the Utes. So next time I smack talk just know that I am holding in a lot more and am fighting a good fight. :)

I miss you guys a ton!!!!!! Special shout out to My Favorite and My Cowgirl. You know who you are ;) Miss the rest of you!!! Love you too Matt, good job Ali and Morganne and the soccer tourny, still planning on our trip Morganne. ;) Lol who did I forget? Post if I forgot to shout you out. Also check out the poll. ;)

Made me Smile


Hey this picture just made my day and was given to me by my seminary teacher. GO UTES!!!!

Sunday, November 23, 2008

Guess what happened?



UTAH FREAKEN WON!!!!!!!!!!! TAKE THAT YOU LITTE BYU WUSSYS!!!!! RAWR I AM A LITTLE KITTY RAWR FEAR MY COUGAR RAGE!!!! OH NO THE UTE BRAVE IS HERE AND HE JUST KICKED MY TRASH!!!! Well I don't know about you but I think that the Utah MVP of the game was Hall. He just kept on throwing so many good passes to the Utes that I thought he was on our team. Some QBs just can't handle the pressure as we have seen in the past with BYU Quater Backs. Like the QB who cried because they lost a game. Ohhh poor little baby!!!! GO UTES!!!! Miss ya guys! Wish I was there to celebrate or gloat over. :) BCS BABY HERE WE COME!

Here are some game facts
-Brian Johnson threw for 303 yards and 4 touchdowns
-BYU had six turnovers five of which were interceptions thrown by Max Hall
-Max Hall threw 204 yards with no touchdown passes
-Max Hall had a personal foul that cost them 15 yards. (control that Mormon boy guys)
-BYU was never ahead of Utah that entire game.
-The final score was 48 24 Utah doubleing BYU's score

Hope you guys know that I love ya still if you wear blue, I just think you look better in red. :) It was an awesome game and I will admit was scared when BYU got close, but when Utah scored at the end of the half I knew the game was ours. I look forward to next year and until then I will be entitled to bragging rites and be using them. Smack talk you later. :)

Yet another Touchdown is about to be thrown.

What Max Hall it thinking-Whats Happening? Is he taking the ball away? OH no not another turn over.

The Holy War Begins.....

Its here everybody its here. Utah is going to finally be able to kick BYU's little but all the way back to Rice Eccles South... oops I mean Provo. Now me being the only Utah fan in my ward no make that the only Mormon Utah fan in College Station I have been giving my share of smack talk. Now Utah is ranked number 7 and is undefeated, BYU is some dumb number way up there and has lost against TCU because their defense just pretty much sucks. Okay Okay I am done with my BYU smack talk....... BYU SUCKS!!!!! Okay now I am done. So what has been going on in my life?...... Hm well band is finally over we lost our last football game so it is finally over!!! Let me tell you also it is getting pretty cold here!! At the football game we actually hit the 30s!!!! I know 36 was the low!! (sarcasm) They passed out hand warmers at the game for the band no joke. Hand warmers for 36 degree weather? I have been much colder I was laughing at everybody that was freezing and I haven't even gotten goosebumps yet. They would just yell at me to shut up because I was from Utah. :) I hear you guys have snow, I miss that sooo much! I miss you all soooo much!!! I wear shorts still because it isn't cold every morning Nate is driving with a blanket over him because it is 40 degrees and it is the coldest thing ever. I have seen people in snow coats in 40 degree weather. I serously thought a blizzard was coming through the way people pack down here. I guess I am just still use to Utah weather. Well I have to go to bed now just got done with a but load of homework. Miss you all so much!!
P.S. If you didn't see the poll over to the right yes you guys guessed right I don't have a girlfriend and I never will probably until collage. :) Be sure to vote on the new poll.

It's over!!! Finally over!!!

So it is all over now, complete, end of story, all finished, period. Band is over!!!! We went to competition and lost. Everybody was so sad because that means we don't go on!!! Oh no the awfulness!!! No more practices, no more Saturdays gone because of band, no more not having a life!!!! What will we do? Ha ha so everybody was sad except for me. I was a little pissed though because of how much time I would put into band (around 20 hours a week) and then not to make it... Oh well I was sitting with the color guard (who are all girls) when they announced when we didn't make it. They all started to cry so I decided to do the hard thing and give them all hugs and comfort them. I know, I know I do too much but hey that's what makes me so nice. :) So now with all this time on my hands I really don't know what to do! I don't have practices or anything or anything!!! So I invited Patrick over last night to watch Better Of Dead. My favorite comedy in the whole world. I drank 2 liters of Mountain Dew and was off the walls and so was Patrick, and I think we officially creeped out my sisters. Oh well what can you do!!! What else has happened? Well I broke up with Cori and am now a free man again. I realize that just having a girlfriend isn't for me at all. I am much too big of a flirt. :) Oh and I got my braces off finally!!! Man isn't it going to be a big surprise for you back in Utah to see me without my braces!!! Well that's about it. A short post today, thanks for reading. Miss you guys soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much!!!

Homecoming a.k.a. Lots of Pictures

Yay!! Homecoming finally happened. Let me tell you all about it. First we had a Marching Band Competition that day which really sucked so we got back at four and were planning to meet at 6. So that left Cori (my date) two hours to get ready which for a girl is like no time at all.



Me and my Patrick at the competition. Yes our uniforms are dumb thank you very much.





So we all meet at a lake near my house to take pictures here are a but load of them.


Okay so left to right: Me and Cori, Ryan and Kathrine, Matt and Reagen, Nate and Aliece, Cody and Katie, Aron and Sarah, and Tyler and Amanda. (All of us are Mormon except for Aron who is Sarah's boyfriend.)



Okay so yall are probably wondering what those big huge things the girls are carrying and that the guys are wearing on their arms. Well those are called mums (what the girls are carrying) and garters (what the guys have). A weird Texas tradition wear you the guys make mums and the girls garters for their date to wear. Well it is really dumb because you wear them for pictures and then throw them in the car and never take them out again. They have little things on it thought that are for you like Cori put Spiderman things on it (she knows the way to get to my heart) and I put some band things on it for Cori. Only thing is that I didn't make mine I bought it from Kroger's. Guess how much it cost me? $75!!!!! For something she is never going to take out again or do anything with? I thought it was a waste. In fact Aron and Sarah didn't do them which was smart. Oh and all the guys did plan on wearing black shirts. Just in case you thought we just showed up in black shirts. Nate's date flew in from New Jersey. That's right he has a "girlfriend" in New Jersey and she flew down here to go to homecoming with Nate. Man I would love it if a girl did that for me (hint hint) jk jk. I love ya guys. Now here are some pictures of me and my beautiful date. :)


So after we spent forever taking pictures we had a progressive dinner. We went to Nate's house for drinks (Not alcohol don't worry) then to Katie's house for appetisers. Then to my house for the main course. Here are some pics from my house.



So after that we went to the dance. Me and Cori carpooled with Tyler and Amanda we had a blast as you can tell from this picture. (Yes I am trying to be gangster from the back seat... it isn't really working is it?)

So we stayed at the dance for about forty five min. then left. We just go there to dance to one slow song because well their is a lot of lets say dirty dancing. Not the kind from the movie Dirty Dancing either.
After the dance we went to Cori's house for desert and then we went back to Katie's house for final goodbyes then I took Cori home.
It was such a fun evening and just awesome!!!
Don't Forget to vote on who is the cutest couple!!!!
