To all my blogging friends and family. I've made the decision to leave the blogging world, so if you find that my blog has disappeared in the next few days you'll know why. Our Fall schedule is such that I simply don't have the time to keep up with it, or rather I've realized I want to do other things with the limited free time that I have. It's been a fun six months sharing with you the things and moments that have made my "Happy List". (My "Happy List" will certainly live on, just not publicly.) I'm hoping I'll be able to drop in occasionally to your blogs to see what you are up to. Happy Blogging and Au Revoir!

What's on my Happy List Today?

The beautiful voice of Luciano Pavarotti


"I think a life in music is a life beautifully spent and this is what I have devoted my life to." Luciano Pavarotti (1935-2007)


As you know I'm pretty passionate about music. For some time now, it's been a dream of mine to one day see the Three Tenors (Pavarotti, Domingo and Carreras) perform in concert somewhere in the world, preferably in Europe (of course). That dream was shattered with Pavarotti's passing today. Sniff (So sad, darn it!) I loved his voice and how he introduced people to the world of opera, particulary with this song...Nessun Dorma.
Farewell to one of the greatest tenors who ever lived!!!

What's on my Happy List Today?

Oh Rise and Shout! Oh happy day.....Today dawns the beginning of the 2007 BYU Football season as they play their season opener this afternoon against Arizona in Cougar Stadium. I absolutely love this time of year. It's my favorite!


This is how the BYU football team gears up for their games by performing The Haka, a traditional Polynesian war dance. Go Cougars!
