I Bet You Didn't Know...

I taught first grade at Provost Elementary School for seven years and now...



Some of my first graders are at Timpview High School taking classes from my dad!
Time flies by too fast.

I Bet You Didn't Know...



My mom and all of my siblings worked at the Ream's Turtle at some point in our life.
My mom was a checker for several years.
My sister, Kim, met her husband Brad there.
Brad worked in the produce department.
Stephanie worked in the snack bar.
I was the nut girl and a checker for five years during college.
Kelly worked in the snack bar and helped me with bagging nuts over the holidays.
Kerri worked in the snack bar and helped me too.
Kris worked as a bagger, in produce and as a nut guy.
Julie and Spencer both helped me bag nuts over the holidays.

Too bad they tore the building down. No store puts up flags and big pairs of jeans quite like they did.

I Bet You Didn't Know...

I have offered to play the recorder for ward musical numbers in previous wards. Funny, no one ever took me up on that offer.

I Bet You Didn't Know the Answers...


1. Which one do I like the best?
The first Rocky movie is the best because it is the story of a man who needs to prove something to himself. He needs to prove that he can endure, stay standing, which is far more important than winning or losing.
Rocky III is a close second where a man loses confidence in his abilities and has to recreate himself.
2. Which one has the best music?
Without a doubt Rocky IV has the best music.
3. Which one is not a part of the series but instead a waste of time?
Rocky V. I tell most people that this is not a Rocky movie.
4. Which one was a pleasant surprise even though I had no expectation for it to be any good?
Rocky Balboa was better than I thought it would be. It helped redeem the series after the disaster of Rocky V. However don't have realistic expectations of this film, just watch it for entertainment value.
5. Where does the story end in my opinion?
It ends at Rocky III. Rocky IV is entertaining and fun but it tries to do to many things and recreate story lines from earlier movies.
6. What are some of the best movie lines from this series?
Hands down the best line in all the Rocky movies comes from Mic. He says: "You're gonna eat lightnin' and you're gonna crap thunder!"

Today is ground hog day. Day of my favorite holiday and favorite movie. I hope you all get a chance to watch it.
I took my Bar Application in today. I hope I don't have to relive that experience over and over.
By the way, Punxsutawney Phil did not see his shadow so we can all hope for an early Spring!
