BIG FINISH

Last night was a big night for me. Not only was it the last home game of the season, it was also the last game that I will ever work. As much as I complain sometimes about the hours I will miss it ALOT! I am always too busy running around to take pictures so I made myself take some pictures of the craziness as we were running around. It is so exhausting and by the end of the night I could barely stand but I thought I would share some pics of people I really care about and will miss so much, and also the people who I couldn't do it without, MY INTERNS, you gotta love them. To top it off the Blaze won again and are going for a home playoff (so I guess technically this might not be the last) but still I figured I couldn't miss the chance to capture a game night!


HANK IS THE BEST! I GET SO STRESSED DURING THE GAMES AND HE JUST CALMS ME DOWN AND WILL DO ANYTHING I TELL HIM TO. HE DOESN'T EVEN WORK FOR ME OR THE BLAZE AND IS ALWAYS THE BEST EMPLOYEE WE HAVE ON GAME DAY. I WOULD NEVER SURVIVE WITHOUT HIM!


MY INTERN EASY BREEZY, IF YOU KNOW HIM THIS IS CLASSIC! WE COULDN'T SURVIVE WITHOUT HIS MUSCLES


MY BOSS BARBIE, MANY OF YOU KNOW THE COUNTLESS STORIES OF BARBIE, SHE IS QUITE THE WOMAN. DESPITE ALL THE STORIES I AM REALLY GOING TO MISS HER, SHE HAS TAUGHT ME A LOT AND I FEEL LIKE ANY JOB AND BOSS WILL BE A WALK IN THE PARK COMPARED TO THIS!


I MAY LOOK LIKE I AM HAVING FUN, BUT HONESTLY AT THIS POINT IT WAS 11P.M. AND I FELT LIKE DROPPING DEAD! KALLIE IS MY GAME DAY INTERN AND SERIOUSLY SAVED MY LIFE THIS YEAR.


LAST BUT NOT LEAST....SWOLLEN FEET ANYBODY. MINE ARE STILL HOLDING IT TOGETHER BUT POOR KALLIE'S ANKLE LOOKS PAINFUL.

As you can see we have a lot of fun with our hard work. I am going to miss the Blaze and the games. Being at those games and seeing the arena and everything come together is very rewarding and I feel lucky to have spent two years with them.

Blog Wishes Do Come True!

I just wanted to let all of you who enjoyed my great "letter to my bike" know that this is in the mail for me:



However mine is even better because it will have a pink basket. Aren't I a lucky girl? If anyone wants to go on a bike ride let me know.

Oh and I guess Hank scored too! Our birthdays are a week apart and this is in the mail for him:



Although it may seem like we are five (getting bikes for our birthdays) we are so excited. There is nothing better then getting something fun and impractical, it takes you back to the good old days!

QUESTION?

If you honestly shed some tears during an episode of the Bachelorette, what does that make you?

CHANGE AHEAD

Well there is a big change happening for Hank and I....and before you all jump to conclusions I am not pregnant! We are really excited about this change and although some of you already know I thought I would have a little fun with it on my blog. Hank and I will be moving at the end of July so I thought I would give some clues as to where we are ending up and you can guess in the comment section below. After I get some guesses I will post all about our adventure, the what, why's, and where's. If you already know you can comment but try not to give it away.

CLUE #1
The average temperature in January is -2.8 Degrees Celsius (note to self: need to start studying the metric system because I will be using it from here on out)

CLUE #2
I will have to learn the rules to hockey, so I can conversate with the locals....

CLUE #3
If Hilary Clinton becomes president I won't have to freak. I will no longer be a resident of the U. S. of A.

CLUE #4
I will not have to learn a foreign language, however they may think I speak a foreign language with my Utah accent.

CLUE #5
If I choose to stay in the football industry I will be working for a team called the _________ Stampeders!

CLUE #6
They call a trash compacter a garburator. (Ok maybe I take back Clue #3)

CLUE #7
Hank will now be cheering for the CFL and not the NFL

CLUE #8
This place is also referred to as a type of Bacon

CLUE #9
Within an hour's drive I will be to Banff National Park, putting 6 Ski Resorts in my reach (My plan to become a snowboarding bum may come true, if it is going to be -2.8degrees C. I think I deserve to do so.)

CLUE #10


Good Luck and I can't wait to share our adventure with you all.

Dear: Tahiti White Lady Six Speed


You don't know this yet but we are meant to be together! In fact I think that if I drop enough hints I may have you by my side for my birthday. Since I first laid eyes on you I have loved you and dreamed about riding you each night. I know that I don't live anywhere near a beach so I have no need for a beach cruiser, but I think the thought of having you makes my love for the ocean breeze seem real! Your crisp white frame and cute pink wheels would be perfect for nightly bike rides along the Provo River Trail with the wind blowing in my face. I love summer and I know that you would be the perfect fit to make this summer the best ever! I love you Tahiti White Lady Six Speed and I hope to have you real soon! If not then I guess I will dream of better days when we can be together.

Sincerely,

Your admirer Emily

Dance, Dance, and more DANCE!


Its that time of year, spandex, fake eyelashes, freakishly orange tan, and some great bonding time with good girlfriends. In fact that last reason is why I keep doing this to myself. Yes its true... I am a grown adult and yes just had five dance concerts. Its seems wierd but I have danced since I was three and just can't stop. I love it! When Gina, the studio owner found me and told me she had an adult dance class four years ago I was hooked and have been doing it ever since. Of course the performing is fun but really the amazing women I meet and become closer with through the process make all the late nights and stress worth it! This year was especially fun because both my high school best friend Kellee and my college best friend Lynlee did it with me and became good friends in the process. We can never have enough good girlfriends and I love how close we have all become. I have included some dressing room pictures since that is the only place we had our cameras..so enjoy the overly hairsprayed, overly tanned, and overly energetic pics! And if any of you miss dancing give me a call!


Kellee, Lynlee, and I at dress rehearsal!


The Whole Gang!

BEST FRIENDS

My #1 Fan, he sat through the show 3 times, now that is a trooper!
