Bull Ridin' aint fer kids






Well, heres the story. I had to become an ultimate aggie before i finished college. This entails riding this bull.... naked. Sunday night at 10:30 i thought it was a good time for a practice run. As i climbed up i saw a cop pass so i got nervous and wanted to do it quick. I used the tail to get up and slid myself quickly into the center of the back, emmediately discovering it was very slick. When i started to tumble over sideways it was too late and i had nothing to grab onto. Trusting in the strength off my arm to catch me i put it out, landed and jumped up on my feet. It didnt hurt but could tell that something wasnt quite lined up... I didnt dare look so kept it covered with the sleeve of my coat. I got in the back seat of my car, trying to stay calm and called Stephanie to come pick me up then i called dad to tell him i was headed to the hospital. The rest can be seen in the photos. I have surgery friday morning to get a plate put in. No more handstands for a while :(. I get a scribe to take my final though! Also, im going to miss graduation. Moral of the story - ROLL if your falling off something high! Dont put your arm out! What a silly boy...

Spring Break


I havent been to Vegas for a long time and one night jsut wasnt enough time to see it all! I want to go back... perhaps with some men.

No im not flexing my abs for the picture! Do you think im vain or somethin? I probably think this post is about me.


we started off going on that rollercoaster you see behind us... twice. From then on I was just sick all day.

Well, this week was just awesome beyond words. Why cant life be one big vacation!? Oh yeah, thats what we call being a hermit. No wonder thats my life dream. ANYWAY, heres a few pics. I went with my two ward friends Lara and Jen. We spent monday night in hollywood. Tuesday at Knotts berry farm and the evening at the Newport Beach temple. Wednesday we went to balboa island, then to coronado island beach in San Diego, then we ended off the day with an amazing temple session at the San Diego temple. Thursday we drove to vegas, visited the Las Vegas temple and then spent the evening on the Las Vegas strip. It was way cool! Friday we drove back to Utah and I spent a wonderful weekend with relatives and the lovely Stephanie Smith and her family. I woke up this morning and wished i had spent a little more time RESTING, but it was a great week.

Budget Cuts

Well, they made the rifs to cover the budget cuts here at work this week. Im happy to say that I did not get laid off, but many others did and my prayers go out to their families. Its made me realize how blessed I am to have had this job since i got off my mission. I always had my own place on campus to do homework, I could go from work to class easily and never had any problems. Ive always had work off by 5pm and have had weekends off. And now im set up with a great job with amazing benefits for after graduation! Thanks Lord. I love you.

Next week is spring break and im going to california. Pimpin' it wit da ladies. Finally ill have some cool trip pics to post up! It will be a wonderful and much needed break.

News Update







K, so i havent posted for like a month and I need to. I swear there seems to be more stuff for married people to blog about or something, because I can never think of anything! Anyway, since I still dont know what to post I just took some recent pictures posted of me on facebook to put up! Sometime I need someone how to edit these posts so I can put the text under the photos... but for now it all has to go under all of them together...
So first we have a couple valentines day things.. I went sledding at the high councelors house with Jen, Lara, and Allison my sisters from my ward. There isnt a picture of Jen... but those first two are of sledding. Then I had some friends over that night to play games and I made cookies so the next picture down is with Megan while she helped me make cookies for the party. Oh hey, what'd'ya know, Jens in the next picture. Thats Jen making some french toast for me. She does that. Brett, my MTC comp was up for the weekend and so we did a big breakfast together. I provided the food and the women cooked it, just like in primitive times. Ok, so next on the list we have Brett and I. He is a great friend. Lastly, there is a random picture of sunday night games. I play games with these people every sunday night.

So in other news..
im still waiting on USU to decide what they will do about the budget cuts. I hope I dont lose my job! Im not worried though, the Lords been blessing me so much that I bet if I lose my job its because the Lords got somethign even better for me somewhere else.

Im getting closer to graduation and love it. I thought I failed my stats test yesterday and wouldnt be able to graduate but then I got an 87! Did I mention the Lords been blessing me?

Hmm... Ive been dating this AMAZING girl Stephanie (not my sister, or Wills wife. another one) Wish I had a picture to post up of her! Oh. Funny thing about her name being Stephanie. She mentioned last night about how I have so many Stephs in my family and wondered if that bothered me. I said "theres not that many, only 3!" Well, theres really only two but I accidentally counted her as a part of my family. Haha, we had a good laugh. Is that even funny? It was when it happened though. Anyway, definately another blessing.

The End. I guess I had more to say than I thought :-)

Christmas

Well, another lovely christmas has passed! This was seriously a great christmas break. As you can see, I got many of the things I asked for!

I didnt get a phone but SUPRISE my work is going to pay my cell phone bill so im starting a new plan and ill get a new phone with it! Isnt life just wonderful? You can see me here in my new superhero PJ's! Some other fun things during the break were snowboarding with my friends and cousins, seing old freinds at Tonys have having freinds over for games at my house.

Christmas wish list

Dear Santa,
What I would like for
christmas is...

drawing tablet for my computer so I can draw really cool things in photoshop and i dont ever even have to use a scanner,

a new suit because I still have the old one from high school that I took on my mission and it has holes where the pockets go and its getting a little small,

a shovel because picking up the briquettes with two sticks is really hard and your face gets hot plus men need to be able to dig holes if the need arises,

a lantern so when we go camping we can play games in the tent... also comes in handy if you need to use the restroom or make food things and its dark,

a hatchet becau
se... hatchets are just cool and indians use them... also a hammer,

an itunes giftcard so I can buy games and music for my wonderful wonderful ipod touch that I love,


new shoes because my socks are cold and when when im at work because the snow and water gets in,


and a new cell phone because mine barely vibrates and its been 2 years with cody and a year with me now,

From Adam

Holiday Fun with Eggnog and Cute Clothes!





Well, ive been dying to post something new up so I thought the christmas party I went to last week was a good opportunity since some people had posted pictures on facebook. It was an ugly sweater party but I said, hey, why not just go with a whole ugly outfit all together. So me and devin both got pink sweaters to wear. Devin just looked like a crossdresser. Our friend Lara, in red, also decided to go with a whole ugly outfit. She does that everyday though. Just kidding :-). It was a pretty fun party. Now most people have gone home for the holidays while the last of us stay up here in the north pole and work. Its finally all cold and snowy up here in Logan. This is cool for about a week, so I think by saturday when I go home Ill be all ready to head south for winter.
