The Countdown Is On!

That's right!  Exactly 7 days and counting until the "Big Blues'" opener against Virginia Tech!!! With such a strong defense, a quarterback w/ a coach's mind (and an amazing arm), and the best coach in college...not to mention almost a whole team of return players...who couldn't stand behind these guys!!! 
Sport Illustrated even recognizes the talent BSU has to offer!  We made the Northwest region cover for SI!!!  (And it sold out in the state of Idaho the day it was released!)  And, they ranked us 3rd in their poll...and placed V. Tech at 10th!!!  (Not to mention BSU is ranked 3rd in the AP poll above both Florida & Texas!  And USA Today has us ranked at #5, w/ V. Tech falling into spot #6.) 
Blue has never looked so good!  Look out Hokies!!!  Not only do I smell a victory!...I think I smell a National Championship game on the way!!!
GO BRONCOS!!!
(Oh, and have you seen Chris Petersen's commercial on ESPN! I'm thinking about getting a blue turf loveseat myself!) :)

New Front Entry

It's been a busy summer for us!  Camping, sports, and...yardwork!  We put a sprinkler system in our back yard!  (Yea! No more hand watering the lawn! Thanks for the help Rick, Kyle, and Cade.)  And, we put in a paver path in our front entry! 

We discovered that we were the only house in our whole neighborhood that did not have a path (separate from the driveway) going to our front door.  Our original house plan has a sidewalk...wonder what happened to that?! :) So, over the years, everyone's just had to walk through our front flower bed. 

But, mud and bark no more!  We have a very beautiful front entry way (thanks to alot of help from my Dad and Uncle Scotty)!!! We've received so many compliments and have really enjoyed it!  It's added a whole new dimension of class to our house!  We love it!

Our First Nephew!

Baby Edward Lawrence Cornelison is finally here!  Our first little nephew was born Wednesday, June 2nd at 12:58 pm.  He is 7 pounds, 4 ounces and 19 3/4 inches long.  He's a cutie! 

My New Toy

I work w/ alot of dirt-bike and atv junkies...and they talk about riding all of the time. And I have friends that ride (or have ridden) motocross. So, I figured it's my turn!

I've actually wanted a motorcycle or 4-wheeler for a long time, but haven't been able to afford it. But, an opportunity came up to get a bike for a really good deal...so, I took it! So, I am the proud owner of a 125cc, 4 stroke dirt-bike!

I took it out for my first run on the dirt a couple weekends ago at Balanced Rock. My dad is a motorcycle guy, so I asked him to take me so he could help me out. I put on all my cool gear and hit the dirt for some fun!

I'm far from being great...but had a really good time riding! I even braved a hill!

Look out motocross...here I come!!! :)
