Go Cardnials!!

I enjoy watching a good game of football. I love the season of Friday night games and have liked it more when someone in my household is into too. I know it sounds weird to all of those women who wish their husbands liked it less. I guess if my husband was obessed, I might not like it too much. My son, Matthew really enjoys college ball and has followed his favorite teams, especially BYU. I grew up watching Pro Football every Sunday. I would attend church with my family on Sundays, then we would usually end up at my Aunt Maida's house, watching Football with the cousins, eating Red Velvet Cake, and drinking Pepsi. We loved the Dallas Cowboys and hated the Steelers. My dad knew one of the players and loved the coach so that was my team, too. That was our Sunday.
Well, we try not to watch too much Football on Sunday, but have made an exception, the Cardinals!!!! I loved that last game and really enjoyed it watching it on a friend's 96 inch tv! I'm impressed with the talent, and amazed at how Kurt Warner married a woman who had a special needs son from a previous marriage in which her husband left. Kurt and his wife have two more kids, too. I steel dislike the Steelers and hope the Cardinals win the superbowl tomorrow.

Gun Control

My kids and I had a blast doing one of Matthew's favorite activities

Shooting guns. Wayne Clement (now our bishop), invited several families

to join him at Mesquite Wash, shoot away and we did.

Wayne had it organized and was showing Zachary

how to properly shoot a .22 rifle
Wayne gave a quick discussion on how to load the guns

Luke Clement, and the group setting up targets

I was holding steady shooting a .38 revolver

Matthew shooting a .22 rifle

There was tons of power when he shot his favorite 9 mm pistol

Amanda and Natalie Clement looking tough

after they shot their revolvers

Zachary was brave and used the 9 mm pistol

hitting targets and having a blast!

Vacation in Utah

My dad took us to see temple lights in Salt Lake

They were beautiful and we were freezing. It was around 20 degrees!

Spent time with my highschool friend Jenai (Schroder )Reid- and we went shopping

Jenai's husband Steve Reid, David and I

Amanda was posing like Christine in the Movie "Phantom of the Opera'
at my cousin's secret room in St. George, Utah

She has two girls, Cierra 16, Saddie 15, the same age as Matthew and Amanda and
two boys, Shay 10 and Seth 7,a little older and one younger than my boys!

My half-sisters Cara Hansen, Elise, and Natalie and my step-mom, Carol

Carol made Pajama bottoms for all of her grandkids!

She is an awesome seamstress, and a wonderful cook.

We were spoiled.

Amanda was posing in the snow outside of my

parents home in South Jordan, Utah

Zachary was so excited to play in the Snow!

Jeremy loved the snow, too

Matthew was posing before throwing a snow ball

Constructing a Snowman outside in the back yard

Amanda was wearing a really warm eskimo headdress that

my dad bought in Alaska. I tried it on and it really worked well.

Grandpa Lunt, Zachary and Jeremy finished the snowman.

We also visited my cousins in St. George, Utah.

We enjoyed staying at their beautiful home

They have a secret 'Phantom of the Oprah' room.

Zachary and Jeremy went down their slide in their home,about 100 times

We visited Church History sites.

Chuck, Chris, Paul Gunderson and our family are sitting the Tabernacle.

Chris was a wonderful hostess and she is an awesome cook, too.

We had a five star meal after church and enjoyed spending time with their family.

Our vacation was short and fun. We had the best time!
