Don't Cry Out

Ok so I realize this is not an 80's song, not all of them are but I guess for the most part they are. But I really couldn't think of a great one and this is the song that kept coming to my mind when addressing this issue. So being home has been good, I absolutely love my family. Lindsey is finishing clinicals and Rulon is working so that means Mom gets to watch the baby, well for the past three days I've been watching her, which I love! Do not get me wrong, she is the sweetest cutest little baby, but she is so scared of me it freaks me out! She screams whenever I try to pick her up, look at her, or talk to her. It is not so cute when the baby is screaming because she doesn't know you, but today was successful! She didn't cry! I guess I should mention that it was because she feel asleep right after she got to my house and when she woke up I was there to greet her and she only cried a little bit. Yes! I'm making progress! I can't even imagine how its going to be when I meet my little Bailey, seeing as she's never even seen me! At least I've been around Shy several times. I'm glad I can be here for a couple more weeks, maybe she'll favor me just in time for me to leave! But for now baby Shy, please, please don't cry out!
Cute toosh
When she likes me the most!

Changes, turn and face the strange.


I really don't even know what to say. I cannot believe how fast the past 10 months have gone. I lived in New York City. This morning as I sit on my couch for the last time writing this blog so many things are going through my head, I can't believe its time to leave already. My parents and younger siblings came in yesterday and I couldn't have asked for a better day, if anything was going to make this easier that was it. The past two weeks have been fun filled. I have great friends here and I am so sad to leave them behind. Life is so crazy in all its stages and phases. I decided that I can look forward to Utah, and starting over once again. I'm so thankful for the time I had to spend in this great city, and mostly for the people I've met while I was here. This will be something I will never forget. Ahhhh, this just feels so surreal. Ok so I'll post picture from the past couple of weeks.

'Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance, well they're no friends of mine.

Ok this is a little bit of old news for those of you that have heard this story I apologize, but I didn't get around to calling all the sibs to tell them about my sweet weekend! So last Friday I went to a Yankees game with Jeff, Natasha, and Russell and it was sooo great! I've never been a huge baseball person, I've always been partial to watching guys pound each other into the ground during football, but going to this game opened my eyes a little! I love baseball games!! (This doesn't mean you'll catch me watching it on tv, I just don't see that happening). But I absolutely loved it! It was Yankees vs LA Angels. Now before this game I was a bit hesitant to go and cheer for the Yankees, but after being there and enjoying the atmosphere I changed my mind, and I am now a Yankees fan! We sat in the bleachers and it was just so much fun, the people were so funny! There were two old men (ok they weren't that old) that were my absolute favorite!! so here's what happened. Yankees were up, 4-0 after the first inning, then in the 6th inning the angels came back and were up 6-4, and in the 7th the scored another 3 runs, so going into the 8th inning it was Yankees 4 Angels 9. During the 8th (maybe 7th) it started to rain and our spirits may have dropped just a tiny bit, but then something amazing happened!! The Yankees scored 4 more runs in the bottom of the 8th, then comes the 9th and the Angels get all three outs with no points, so its bottom of the ninth BASES ARE LOADED!!! Cano was up to bat he hits and and we get two runs which means.... YANKEES WIN!!! yay!!
Two hilarious guys sitting in front of us.

This was obviously a low point in the game.

Bottom of the ninth.......BASES LOADED!!!
