We're # 1!!

Okay, so I know that you are all probably bored with hearing about my cheerleaders, but let't face it... Most of the rest of you have children so you have lot's of fun stuff to blog about. The closest thing that I have to children are my 23 teenagers! So with that said I will be a bragging parent for the time being. We had our first competition yesterday and they did so so awesome. They took first. It was the first competition of the year and we still have a long way to go.. they did great, didn't drop any stunts, showed confidence and had energy. It was a blast, it would have been even better had I been able to yell for them when they won.. ( I am sick and have lost my voice- Hannah I sound just like a chain smoker and Mark thinks it's sexy!!:)) I had an individual group stunt that competed- and took second. I am so proud of them also because they basically made the routine up on the spot.. and most of the other girls that competed had been planning and preparing for months! It was AWESOME!.. It was an all out cheer day we had the competition in the morning and then we were in charge of a preference dance for a fundraiser in the evening. It was really pretty fun to go and see all of the high school kids. It was an eventful day, but the best part of the day was definatley when they anounced the second place team and then we had known that we took first! It was GREAT!!

Cool School!!

I have to post this.. my girls were on T.V. this morning and I had to wake up at 5 a.m. so I could be to the school by 5:45 a.m. But you gotta check out the killer pyrmaid they did for Big Budah.. PG was the Cool School of the week! http://www.myfoxutah.com/myfox/MyFox/pages/sidebar_video.jsp?contentId=7799488&version=1&locale=EN-US

Bored @ BYU!!

Well I am just sitting at BYU working on some homework! I am slacking off right now and taking a break! I just thought that I would give you all an update on Becky, I know all of you love her and would like to know how she is doing. Hopefully she does not mind me talking for her and keeping all of you updated! Over the past couple of weeks, since we found of the news, she has had many different doctor appointments. Her MRI came back telling us that she had 3 different lumps/spots of the cancer, all in the same breast. So that meant that she for sure had to have a masectomy on that breast. However she has since then decided to have a double masectomy, she figures she will play it safe and not have to deal with breast cancer again! She will be having this operation done tomorrow. However I do have a correction from my last blog! She did find out from the plastic surgeon that she will not be able to get the tummy tuck with the new boob job! The doctor said that she would have to gain about 30 more pounds to get that done! So she won't be puttin on 30 pounds anytime soon! For those of you wondering she is doing so so so well.. She has the best attitude and positive outlook. She knows that it is all in the Lord's hands. She is so Awesome and doing well! I will keep all you updated on how the surgery goes! I just want her to know how much I love her and will be praying for her! She is the bomb!! I'll give her the "Whoo Whoo"!!!

It's Been A Little Rough Around These Parts!

The last couple of weeks and especially this past week has not been the greatest in our world! For those of you who do not already know my sister Becky was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. This came as quit the shock due to her young age, she is not even 30 years old yet. We do not know all of the details yet, we are still waiting for many of the test results to come back. However the things that we do know are.. They are going to do surgery, as to whether they are going to remove the boobs or just the cancer lump, we are still unsure. She will for sure have to go through chemotherapy, and yes she will loose 100% of the hair on top of her head and probably even her eyelashes and eyebrows. Her husband told her that they would have to get her a whole new hat collection and she is hoping that the doctor will remove the man-eating mole on her head! We are still waiting for the results to see if it is genetic or not, our Grandma Duffin has had problems with this, so there is a good chance it could be genetic. If it is genetic it will mean that Jensyn (her daughter) and I will need to be watched very closely. Jensyn will never be able to take oral birth control pill and for me it means that I should probably get off the pill! The reason for this is because the estrogen in the birth control makes the cancer grow alot faster. For Becky it also means that they will have to also take out her ovaries and take off the boobs. However the good news to Becky is that if they take off the boobs, she is going to get "reconsturctive surgery" and with this "reconstructive suurgery" they take fat from other places of the body, and then have to fix the place they take the fat from. Basically all I am trying to say is that she will get a boob job and a tummy tuck all in one, which sounds pretty cool!! I hope none of you think that I am being insensitive about this. For those of you that know our family, know that we joke around alot and this is kind of the way we are dealing with this. It has been really rough on all of us, however there has been so much support. We have the best extended family in the whole world! My Aunt Cheri and Aunt Weezy wanted to do something for my sister. My sister has painted almost her whole house since she has moved in, except for her own bedroom. My Aunt's wanted to do something for her and they knew how much she wanted her bedroom painted, so.. they painted her bedroom over the course of a couple of days. They figured she will be in bed more than usual in the next few months and they wanted her to be able to look at her walls and know that she is loved! They are awesome! Becky has also said how great and supportive her husband has been. I am so thankful for Jon and his love for her because I know it comforts her so much! Becky has an awesome attitude about all of this and I am not so sure that any of us could get through this without her positive attitude. She is the best sister in the whole world and I want her to know how much I have looked up to her my entire life. Even though she did rat me out a few times when I wasn't doing what I was suppose to! She has been an example to me! I pretty much copied her life, except for the geeky parts! This Picture is a perfect example of my coolness and her geekiness!! She is the Best and I LOVE HER!! I will pray for you Beck your the BEST!!! So pathetically I do not have any picutres of Becky and I when we are older, well I have some some at my house, but I am at my parents and these are the pics I have come up with at my parents I love them!!

IF YOUR WONDERING!!

If your wondering why we are not having children, maybe this will answer some of your questions!! Believe it or not Bitner was the cutest one we came up with, we made many different attempts to make a cute child! If you are wondering why Bitner, I dont know other than Mark really liked it!! Hope this gives you a good laugh cause we had some!

Another Boring Update!!

Hello all! If there are any of you out there that even still read this! I figured I should update it at least once every few months!! JK... So I figured out what makes it so dang hard for me to update this. I have not really done anything too exciting where I have taken pics... It is a lot easier for me to post when I have fun pictures to show! I thought I would let all of you know how my job is going.. It is going so much better.. Yes better!! I will be honest this is one of the hardest jobs I have ever had, and yet it is one of the most rewarding. I love the girls so dang much. They are so cute and so dang fun (most of the time!!- they still are high school girls!!) We have went through a few rough patches, it is always hard to adjust to a new coach! I am hoping that we are through those rough patches and there won't be anymore. We are almost done with football season only a few games left. We are starting to work on competititon and I think that is going to be a blast.. Competition is awesome. Moving on to other things I am doing... School is GREAT.. I never knew that I actually liked school. I am learning so much and it is actually the stuff that I am interested in. I know that with my degree there is not much to do with it, but I really enjoy it, so I am happy about that! Mark is doing well and looking forward to graduating this December if he can just get this Docterine and Covenants online class done!! He has a little over a month to complete it and lets just say that he has not done much with it!! I know he will get it all done, its just a little nerve racking! We are doing great! We are busy busy, but Life is still GOOD!! Here is a pic of the girls that I spend alot of my time with, aren't the so dang cute!! Can you pick me and my assistant out of them?? It is really funny when I go and park in the faculty parking at the high school the parking police guy always tells me to leave, cause he thinks I'm a student!!
