Spring Break was fabulous! Everything about it! We had a fabulous time in Phoenix! I am putting the pictures up in my gallery. We saw three fabulousd baseball games that were very fun and very different. We tried burm seating, which was interesting. I got to see Manny play, even though he didn’t do anything ( struck out looking twice, and hit into a double play). It was so nice to spend some time with the Joslin’s. It was so nice to spend more than just the weekend with Becca!n The weather was awful when we returned to Salt Lake. Of course, none of us brought coats and I didn’t bring any real shoes… It was a cold walk to the car.
We were home for one night and Chris Clark came for the weekend. I hadn’t seen him since my birthday so it was really fun! We didn’t really do anything, mostly homework and errands, but we got a new Wii game and it was so fun! You have to dance and totally make a fool of yourself.
School is keeping me so busy! I can’t seem to get caught up on anything! I am doing really well in my classes, even thought I feel like I’m totally slacking.

I have been trying to get something written about the WBC since it started, but I just haven’t had time. I love the WBC! It is so fun to watch the players play for their country and they are so excited with so much pride! I also really enjoy watching player from the Dutch league, The Korean league, the Chinese/Japanes league play. The big suprise team was the Dutch. I was amazed by the way they played. The U.S. did better this time then the last time, but still kinda a disappointment. The final between Japan and Korea was AMAZING! I think that it is so cool that Japan is the only country to win the WBC. I, of course, was rooting for them after the U.S. was eliminated because they have Kenji Johjimah and Ichiro. One of the player slid into second base and hit his helmet on the 2nd basemens knee… His helmet SHATTERED he hit so hard and he kept playing!
It was hard for me to believe that it was time for the WBC again already! Chris and I watched the last one on some of our first dates. It seems like we have been together forever and not very long at the same time.

We are having SO much fun! Our hotel is beautiful (so is the weather)! The game was fun yesterday, none of us loved burm seating however. We saw a man that looked like Yosemite Sam yesterday, however, we couldn’t get a picture. He had Texas Long Horn horns on the front of his jeep and a sword strapped into the seat next to him. We were totally wiped out after the game yesterday. I fell asleep in the car on the way home. We had Julio G’s mexican food last night and it was DELICIOUS! When we got back to the hotel Chris, Becca and I went swimming. Everything has been perfect!

After two very crazy, busy weekends in a row, it was nice to have one that was a little more laid back… Here’s a run down of our weekend…
Rebecca came home and got to meet baby Brie. It was relly nice to see her again! I miss her when she is gone!
It was Edythe’s Birthday. We got her a really cool book called The Oxford Project. It is so interesting! Phil had a migraine and had to stay in bed all day Saturday. We went out to dinner and The Sandtrap and had great food with horrible service. We ate huge cupcakes for dessert 
After dinner with the family, we picked Zach up and had a few beers and watched some funny things on TV and just hung out a little.
We watched several movies this weekend. I really liked Mrs. Henderson Present and recommend it if you liked Calendar Girls and/or The Full Monty. We rewatched Iron Man… Which totally rocks! And American Gangster. This movie was okay… Not my favorite and very very long!
Sunday we had a big lunch since Rebecca was leaving early and then more cupcakes! We just hung out after that. I did some homework and Chris hung out with Phil.
Chris ordered a new computer! I am so excited for him!
I know that it doesn’t sound very exciting… But it was a really nice weekend!
