HELP!

Our blog needs some serious help... maybe we need to do something fun so we can blog about it, or maybe someone should do something fun for us and they can blog about it?!?! sorry to all those who may have checked our blog only to see the same old page.

Erin is Back

We just wanted to let everyone know she is back from her mission and her talk is this Sunday at 9:30 a.m. She called me yesterday and told me her flight was delayed. She did not know when it was coming in, or the flight plan. She ended up calling me later and said she will be coming in at 6:46. It was 11:00 a.m. in Australia and her plane was going to leave at 5:30 p.m. She and the other missionaries went bowling because of the big delay.

Hello Everyone! We just celebrated Dave Davenport's birthday at Classic Roller Skating and brought back the 80's in style. Doesn't "she got the look?" Na na na na na na na na! "She's got the look." I may need to put more na na to the song. Somebody may need to run song check on me once again. I will try to put some 80's slang on this posting to help all those who want to be back in the 80's. It's going to be "dank."


"Gnarly" clothes eh? "What did you do kid? Jump ship?"


"I kid you not," I have one "kickin" wife. I think we were meant to be because we played "M.A.S.H. and all signs pointed towards us. We are still waiting to live in a Mansion in Ogden with our 12 kids.






This is Jaime (Sara's cousin) and he brought back some "bangin" steps! Nice one "McFly."


This is Eric, Sara, Jackie, and Dave sporting their "fly" get up. We had some great "grindage." This picture was taken toward the end of the party before we "bounced. We said goodbye to them because we did not want to be "hosers." We were definitely "posers" and "Wanabes."



Other 80 terms...

These were found off of a website called, inthe80's.com. It is pretty "hard core."

Wisconsin FamilyTrip

Hi my name is Sara. I lived in Wisconsin until I was 11. I want to have a little show and tell about my old hometown state Wisconsin. First off, this is the church I went to in Wisconsin when I was a little girl. I was so happy to re-visit my old church as one may see by the big smile on my face.

Lets really start, we first packed our bags and flew to Wisconsin. Miles loved his first time flying. He was sad he did not get his peanuts and Ginger ale. Eric was jealous because he had a lot of leg room.


You see my sisters and I grew up here and learned many girlie lessons like putting make up on our faces. We played with our American Girl dolls and played dress up. On our latest trip one may tell things have not changed. My husband Eric thought I looked really great with all this lipstick. Dan and Robert missed out on a wonderful time with the make up. Amanda would have been in this picture too, but she flew in too late.



Sweaty Liam and Miles were sweaty from their flight, so we took them for a dip. Angela did not want Liam to see other babies bathing. It is not good at such a young age.



Here are the babies after their eyes wondered.


They sure did clean up well and are happy now. Theresa looks great too! Doesn't she? One hot momma!


We came out here to hang out with the family and introduce Eric to them. It was so much fun to eat all the fried chicken we wanted and then have as much fried chicken the next day. Thanks for all the chicken mom.

Here is my Mom, Liam and Baby Doll Gary celebrating like it is 1999.

Tim and Theresa were doing the same thing, but standing.

Here are all the kids playing on the ground. I wonder if they will invite Eden to sit with them.


Here I am visiting my favorite place on earth, Wrigley Field. I sure hope they don't change the name. Eric and I found tickets to a sold out game for only $15.


Here are our seats, they were right off of the first base line. We had a perfect view of a hot dog stand, people walking in front of us, and a big pole used to hold up the upper deck. We had to stay behind a yellow line. We must have accidentally tripped 20 people walking by us. It was great entertainment.

This is a picture of our view from our seats. We knew where all the men went. We had a mega phone and yelled at all the men who forgot to wash their hands.




We only lasted 2 innings in these seats and found some better ones up here. We only had to move once because we were in other people's seats.


Eric is so excited to come back to Wrigley Field. He loved singing, "Take me out to the Ballgame," and "Go Cubs Go." He is anxious to go back to the "Friendly confines of Wrigley Field."

Afterwards, we went to the place where deep dish pizza was allegedly born. We placed our order and went to Bloomingdales to look at fancy China. We even went to the bathroom there and I heard them call our names from Uno's Pizza to tell us our pizza was ready.




I am so glad I heard them call our name, or I may have never eaten the most delicious pizza I ever ate today. Look at how deep it is.


This kid was so amazed he kept looking through the window at us to see how amazing it really was. He was so cute.


This is our trip to Wisconsin in a lot of pictures. I hope you all liked them.

Welcome back Tyreek

Tyreek is back and ready to party. We are so excited to have him visit! He hopes they play Plinko on the Price's Right on his birthday this year.

Mud Monkeys

Sara is gone and she told me I could put some post up on this blog of ours, so here I am trying really hard to get it looking well. She sends her love from Wisconsin.

This is a picture of Mud Volleyball at South Ogden Days. Hershey sponsored this event and filled up the volleyball pit with dark, semi-sweet, milky, mud. MMM..... We could not fit it in our pockets, so we took a dip. Fondue anyone? We tell people it was chocolate because some people have never played in the mud and they may not understand how fun it is!

Here is the whole clan playing with us. Brooke, Ryan, Brindy, Kim, Sara-the beautiful babe in the yellow, and Eric. Brooke served this whole game and we won seven to zero.
Here is a guessing game..Which one of these two kids below have played in mud?



Answer: Grandma. Next year we will let Brielle be a cheerleader and then we will have a team meeting to see if we can let her on the squad.



Here is team Mud Monkeys after a game. We would try to wash off as much mud as we could after each game. Towards the end we gave up on trying to be clean and we stayed in our Mud Monkey mode.


After all these months of marriage Sara still loves me. Even if I forget to wash up. Woman do love chocolate. Oh wait...it says, "I love Sara." After all theses 5 months of marriage I still love her! Men love chocolate too!




Stay tuned for the sign up sheet to be involved in next years chocolate dip. Some people do the polar Bear Plunge, we do the Grizzly Bear Plunge. We may need two teams from the response we are getting. We do need more Fans!

Special thanks to Dad the photographer. Next year he may get to be in one of the pictures.

Cancun

Eric and I went on our honeymoon at the end of May to Cancun. It was kind of a delayed honeymoon due to school, but we ended up graduating and so we went to Cancun to celebrate both our graduation and our marriage. So.. here are some of our pictures from Mexico!

We ate breakfast here the first day in Mexico... Not gonna lie Mexican breakfast..eee. I could do better. But, the resort was beautiful.. and next is a picture of the view from where we ate..

SO PRETTY!! we both love the ocean!

Don't worry, we did find some awesome food there... it just took some searching



Eric and I did some shopping while we were there, we didn't really buy a lot, BUT we did find some awesome things... exhibit A:
I believe there are no words to describe how awesome THIS is! I also found something awesome..I know... it's not as good as the mask but I thought this shirt was SO cool! All the color is wax.. somehow.


We went to Chichinitza which was really awesome. There is so much history and mystery there! I loved it, the Mayan people were really smart.. they are the first society to come up with the concept of the number zero. PRETTY COOL! Oh and they gave us a great souvenier on our way out of the park... yep that's our picture on a bottle of Tequila!

Oh and they have these things in Cancun called Cenotes. They are kind of like sink holes. They were really pretty, Eric went diving into one... I'm not as good as a swimmer so I took pictures! If you look really close you can see Eric jumping, he kinda blends in with the vines.

Overall, we had soooo much fun!

Graduation!

We GRADUATED!! Can you believe it? It felt like this day would never come and then it just snuck up on us! Eric graduated from the college of applied science and technology and Sara graduated from the college of Science. Our graduations were at the same time but in different places.. it was so sad! Eric dropped me off in front of the Union building and said "congratulation, good luck" and then left to his graduation... I was all alone and sad! Not only that but Kim the boy graduated with my college so the Woodbury family had to split up between the two graduations! We all met up after and had lunch at the school afterwards and it was a great time!So... now we are out in the "real world" trying to find jobs.. So far, Eric is a piano mover and I paint schools in Davis school district. (I might not have the job I want yet, but at least I'm working for the district.) If you hear of any jobs for a math teacher or a sales man let us know!

I just thought I would add this picture because I thought it was hilarious!

Feb 15, 2008 continued

Our reception was at a church just down the street from Eric's parents house. It was perfect. We had so much fun... But we didn't get any of the delicious food that my cousin Jackie made! We did get to dance and visit with so many close friends and family who came. What a great day! These are just some pictures from our reception. (Mostly group pictures)
My family (minus my dad). Robert was really excited to be there!

Our cake was so beautiful! Of course my mom made it, she did a fantastic job!


These are three of my best friends from school, my bridesmaids Whitney, Lynsi and Molly. (Of course Erin is missing from this picture because she is still on her mission in Australia.) Molly caught the boquet... what is next Molly??

I had Eric's sisters and my sisters wear red with black skirts. It turned out really well.

We got to dance at our reception! We were so excited to have so much fun dancing with everyone!

These are two of Angela's little boys, Parker and Mason.

The Woodbury family. There are so many of them! Believe it or not there are three people missing, Eric's younger sister Erin (my best friend who isn't Eric), Ali's husband Josh and Tom's wife Lisa. Two of my new sister-in-laws are pregnant... The Woodbury family is ever growing!
