Mom took a picture of Jay and me before we went to dinner at Canton. After we went to dinner we went out and watched a movie with Lynds and Tanner because Taylor left her for work. Their first valentines together and she didn't even get to spend it with him, but I know she had a blast with the three of us. :)

Love Story...

Awhile ago I got the email from 1055 the Hawk just giving everyone a heads up about a contest they were starting. It's called Love Story. All you have to do it email your love story in 105 words or less and your story could win you...The Grand prize includes 2 tickets and 2 backstage pre-concert party passes to Rascal Flatts in Nampa, ID at the Idaho Center on February 25th 2009 and vouchers sufficient for one night’s stay at any Shilo Inn & Suites..

So I thought all day when I got this email and started to brain storm on what I wanted to write about my little love story with Jay. After i finally put our story in close to 105 words, went a little over opps I sent it away.

Welll.... today I opened my email shocked to see a email back from Brother Dale, the DJ... they enjoyed my story so much that I am a finalist!!

I'm so so so excited!! i called mom and told her all about it the second i read what Brother Dale wrote me. I told her what I wrote and how special it would be to see Rascal Flatts with Jay, because they are a band he shared many memories with his Dad. I got teary eyed when I was sharing my excitement with Mom, gets me everytime when i think of how special the Struhs family is to me. Mom was so thrilled and said her and Dad would take a little trip with us to Boise too if this turn out good in the end.

BUT... I'm still keeping this a secret from Jay so no one tell he he :) I'll have to tell him after I meet with the DJs tomorrow; it's a HUGE secret but its worth keeping from him for a day :)

I'll post after tomorrow and let everyone know how it goes.

AWH I'm so shocked still... :)

sweet nineteen :)

Mom and Dad just left Pocatello. They came and took me out to dinner for my birthday today :). I had a blast hanging out with them. We went to Senor Iguana's for dinner. Dad order a foot long burrito and we were just amazed that it was actually a "foot" long!!

After we were done eating the waitress came out with a sombrero and the whole resturant sang to me :)

After dinner I came back to my dorm just working on some homework and there was a knock on the door. I opened it and all of my friends were there with Jess. She made a cake and brought balloons.

I had a very special day spending it with my friends and family after this horrible "sick" week I had. I've been sick with a horrible sore throat, beautiful fever blisters on my lips, ear aches, and swollen gums. I went to the doctor twice and even a dentist to figure out what was wrong with me. After everyone I have seen since last Thursday, no one still knows what is wrong :(. I am feeling a little better day by day, but I just want to be feeling normal again. :)

Praxis Test and the Super Bowl

Today Jess took her Praxis Test to get into the Education Program here at ISU. She did GREAT!! She passed. She was so excited and had a big smile on her face all day. Mom called me and we decided to go get flowers and balloons for the big celebration. We are so proud of her :) WAY TO GO SISSY!!

Yesterday for the Super Bowl Mom made a lot of food for my roommates and myself! We had all of our friends over in our tiny three bedroom apartment, but it was still a blast!

way to go steelers!
