Soul Sisters

My cousin Kelsi should have been my sister. We are so alike, it's crazy. If anyone understands me, it's her! She is my best friend and always will be. 


Utah Jazz

The Lappe family is a BIG Jazz family. I can remember our outings to Jazz games as I grew up. It was our family "thing," it was our bonding time. We went to so many games and I remember going to the Jazz vs. Bulls game during the finals... it was so so so fun! we made posters and hung a beanie baby bull on a rope, it was so much fun. I was an honorary Jazz dancer once (Karl Malone almost fell on me :) ) Erik was a ball boy once. Anywhoooo... we just loved the Jazz and everything fun about them. Jerry Sloan is the only coach i've known as a Jazz fan. It was a complete surprise when he announced that he was leaving, I mean we all knew it was coming someday soon but it was just so sudden. It made me quiet sad to see him go!! He is a part of the whole Jazz memory. Hopefully it will bring new opportunities for the Jazz.
Thanks Jerry Sloan for all you've done, it's been a great run.

Best Friends

Stella loves her best buddy Harper boy.  She wants to be just like him. Lucky for me, he is a great dog to wanna be like. 

Very First Post!

This is my first post of many to come. I don't know that I have too many interesting things to share with everyone but here goes it....

Todd and I got our cute little Stella puppy in September, she is the best little gift that we could have ever picked out.
We had originally wanted a puppy that was at the shelter in Heber, but his owner finally went and picked him up after about 5 days without him. Todd's dad called and said that Dr. Prince's black lab had a litter of puppies that were just about ready to find their homes, which made us very very excited! Todd has always wanted a black lab so this was perfect. I had always vowed that I would never pay money for a puppy, even a pure lab, and Todd knew this. We found out that he was going give them all away for free! yay for us.
When we arrived to pick her out there were about 7 all black puppies, we didn't know how in the world we would choose which one we wanted to take home with us. But Stella was so friendly, and interested in us. Then she went to lay on a large stack of blankets, but she didn't try to get on top of them and lay down, she tried to lay down on them straight from the side hoping that somehow she'd end up on top of them... but instead she just slid down. Todd and I both said "we'll take that one," she just seem quirky with a goofy personality. She has turned out to be exactly that, and we love it.
