Snowcross!!

For Christmas I got Lee tickets to Snow Cross, since he loves anything with an engine. He used to be a big time snowmobiler, and still loves it even though he doesnt have a snowmobile right now. It was the first year that snowcross came to Utah, and it was in the new Rio Tinto stadium. The event was outside, and was sooo cold!! We knew it would be cold, so we dressed accordingly, but according to Lee it was "biting" cold. Im pretty sure that just means it was way cold! I think it was around 25 degrees. I was trying to be a trooper, so I never asked to leave or complain when I was cold. I thought for sure Lee would have wanted to stay for the whole thing, but after the pro races Lee turned to me with rosy cheeks and a red nose and asked if I was ready to go because he was cold.

These guys were getting so high off the jump and doing tricks!

So high!!!

Lee loved this snowcat, he said he wanted one. When I asked him what he would do with it, he said he would just drive it around and plow the roads for people. He is such a little kid!!

Over all the night was fun. After we left we were trying to run to the truck, and our feet were so cold it hurt to run because we kept getting charlie horses. To top off our date night, we got some of the best pizza in Utah from Zeponies and just hung out at home.

Proud Mama!

We are so proud of our little Sadie. She is such a quick learner. She all ready knew sit when we got her, and she picked up on lay down pretty quickly. We wanted to expand her repertoire and teach her some new tricks. We thought "shake" would be a good one, she mastered it in 2 days!! I don't know who was more excited about her progress, her or us. We are like proud parents! We will be teaching her new tricks as time goes on.

The newest Schultz family member..

Introducing Sadie Mae

Anyone that knows me, knows that I love dogs. Lee and I had discussed getting a puppy for Christmas, and that since we now have a house, we could have a dog. I had decided that I wanted to rescue a dog and adopt a dog who really needed a home. Lee was on board with this decision as well. The very next day, we found a cute dog who needed a home.

I was in Salina doing a show, when I got a phone call from Lee telling me about a little black dog who needed a home. This little dog has tons of energy, and we got her from the Roberts family(Our Brother in Laws parents). She is about a year and a half old, so she still has some puppy spunk in her. She is a sweetheart and loves to cuddle.

From what we can tell, she is a mix of a Lab retriever and a Australian Shephard. She is to smart, for her own good sometimes. When we are at work, we would put her in our laundry room so she couldn't get into trouble, one day she figured out how to get out of the room. She dug through our laundry and got one of Lee's sweatshirts, she carried it into our bedroom and just layed on it until Lee got home. She loves Lee.

She is not a morning dog! When I leave for work I try to get her to go out before I leave, but she just wants to sleep. She climbs onto our bed and lays in my spot, hoping that I wont pick her up to take her outside. She is always learning, and she is becoming an awesome dog. We can now trust her to leave her in the house and roam free when we leave, as long as she has a treat and a toy to play with.

She is so spoiled, and we love her so much. She has a permanent spot in our family. Everyone that meets her loves her, and she is such a pretty dog. We are still working on getting her trained to stay in the yard. All of our neighbors have dogs and she is eager to become friends, however she doesn't always see the cars coming up the road. She is starting to understand that she just cant take off anymore, and we will just keep working with her so she can stay safe.


We are so glad to have her in our family. She is such a great addition to our home, and is always excited for us to come home and play with her.

Technicolor bruise

My mom called me yesterday to check on me and see how I was feeling, I was trying to explain to her how my eye looked and it went something like this: It is yellow and red and black and brown and purple and blue. It reminded me of Joseph and the technicolor dream coat. You can tell by my face in this picture that I am really concerned on how I look...Just be warned.. I have been home since Monday hanging out with my brothers dog. If small children are in the room you may want to divert their eyes from this picture...

Scary huh!!! I have to work tomorrow, and have a show on Friday so hopefully I can cover some of that up with some makeup.

Christmas lights..

Its the time of year that christmas lights go up. My mom's husband Allen fell off of a roof a few years ago and hurt himself badly. My mother's balance is awful, and since I had put christmas lights up for her in years past, I had no issues climbing up to put them up for her. Lee wanted to help me put the lights up, but being the impatient and stubborn person I am, I didnt wait for him. My mom's house has a steep roof, I wad run the extension cord up to the roof, and was ready to start putting up the lights. I was starting on the corner of the roof, and there just happened to be a tree on that side of the house, and branches were hanging on the roof. These branches were in my way...and I tripped over them and fell off of the roof. Yes, I fell. I tried to grab onto branches on the tree to catch myself, but the branches were not strong enough and ended up taking them down with me. I didnt break anything, I just have some awesome bruises and cuts. This lovely black eye needs to go away . I am in a play called the "Altos", and I have a show on Friday, so hopefully it wont be so bad by then.

These pictures are scary...but this is the worst of my injuries.. Pay no attention to my awesome hair.

The first picture is from the ER, and the 2nd is from last night. Believe it or not, the black eye is worse....My doctor told me to take a few days off from work, so I am just hanging out at home...bored. Daytime TV is super boring.

When I was in the E.R. at Lakeview, they told me that I was the first one to come in from a christmas lights accident. So I at least can have that as bragging rights..
