the night the sky lit up

Last night at around 12:15 I was sitting in my office on the computer talking to Hayley on the phone. My office light was on but the rest of the upstairs was pitch black. At the exact time my upstairs LIT UP Hayley (in Provo) freaked out on the phone saying that something just lit up my moms front yard and she could see her car as if it was daylight. Then we both began freaking out. I immediately got on Facebook and soon had people commenting saying they saw it. Then a friend of mine in St. George said he saw it. He described it as something that started out as a shooting star then proceeded to grow as big as the sun. He said it was green, blue and white. It freaked him out to no end. Then a guy on the freeway said he thought we were getting nuked. He said it got as bright as if it were two in the afternoon. I soon called Channel 4 who said they were pulling their hair out trying to figure out what it was. They were on the phone with astronomers, and that people from Vegas to Ogden had seen it. This thing was big or just extremely close because it was as bright in Vegas as in Northern Utah. They are pretty sure it hit, they just don't know where. CRAZY!!!! Here is a security video of someone in Utah. Remember this is at midnight!!!

Christmas in November...

SO different from Continuum but SO good. My ears are going to be quite busy. I have to now order the album on iTunes because he does a cover of 'I'm on Fire!' By the Boss. Court could anything be better?!!! Dad you will love 'Crossroads!'

In the song 'Who Says' there is a line that talks about planning a trip to Japan alone. It brings a smile to my face as I remember when HE looked into my eyeballs for what seemed like an hour and told me about his trip to Japan he had just taken...ALONE. (sigh)

Can I tell you how I enjoyed opening my T-shirt up to find my CD...nice touch.

Reflections!!

If you saw, I posted a poem a while back that Indi wrote for Reflections at her school. The theme was Beauty Is...

Yesterday we got word that hers has been picked to move onto the next level of competition.

We are so proud of her!!!

Way to go Indi, YOU truly are what beauty is!

Love you!

Trophies are fun!!

Happy Veterans Day/ Must Love Dogs

If you know our family well, you know we LOVE dogs!

My sister in law Nicole often refers to us as the Osborne family when we get them all together. She is Marvin's mom.

This is a photo taken a few months ago of our dog children. From left to right Rocco and Lulu (both ours), Marvin, Tess, Darla (Lulu's daughter, both rescue dogs), Tug and Ducati (Rocco's brother)

I came across this neat video that brought on the tears of dogs welcoming home their Veteran owners. Check them out....

THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR VETERANS WHO SERVE OUR COUNTRY.
