The Cougar Song
Brigham Young University
By Clyde D. Sandgren, 1932

Rise all loyal Cougars and hurl your challenge to the foe.
We will fight, day or night, rain or snow.
Loyal, strong, and true
Wear the white and blue.
While we sing, get set to spring.
Come on Cougars it's up to you. Oh!

Chorus:
Rise and shout, the Cougars are out
along the trail to fame and glory.
Rise and shout, our cheers will ring out
As you unfold your victr'y story.

On you go to vanquish the foe for Alma Mater's sons and daughters.
As we join in song, in praise of you, our faith is strong.
We'll raise our colors high in the blue
And cheer our Cougars of BYU.

Family Picture

Jeremy & I have been married for 9 years and in all that time we have never had a real family picture taken.  Like the kind with an actual photographer that truly knows what he or she is doing.  Anyway, that day still has not come :(
So I'm settling on having this picture printed on a canvas and calling it a day!

Photo taken by Kevin Large (good job Dad!) after eating lunch to celebrate Nyah's Baptism. {April 2011}

We love each other and it's time our walls prove it, ha ha.  So yes, our hair is a little unkempt, and our outfits are not coordinated in anyway, but this is us, imperfect but gloriously happy!

I can't wait to see how our family picture looks on canvas!

Today was a mom payday, you know, one of those days that makes all the countless hours we put in as moms totally worth it!  I walked in the family room to Cali singing a song she made up that repeated over and over, "my mom is my best friend" *sigh*  Then later in the day this little cutie of mine came up to me, squeezed my legs in one of her full body hugs and said, "mommy I just love you so much."  *double sigh*  Oh Cali I just love YOU so much too!
