So this season of American Idol I was a huge David Archuleta fan. I just cannot believe he didn't win. Granted, I do think David Cook is really good, but I was certain the other David would win.
Yes, I voted. More than once. Me and all the 14 year old girls from Utah are all depressed right now. He will still do great in his career, but ahhh... I am laughing at the fact that I am so upset about this!
Ev, I'm sure when you see I did a blog post about this, you will think I am just pathetic! I will be buying his CD when it comes out. Ever heard of Ruben Studdard? Yeah, he won but then disappeared. It is not over!

Birthday Celebration!
Ev did an awesome job with my birthday plans this year! I put a lot of pressure on him to do something great- and he excelled at doing so.
On Wednesday I decided to check our bank account and came across a payment to a hotel in Seaside. I have told Ev numerous times how I remember going to Seaside as a child and having so much fun. Well, Ev was stuck on surprising me this time (I always either figure it out or get the information out of him) so he redid the plans without me knowing.
Our first stop on my birthday agenda was to one of my favorite places- the mall. He took me to the Lloyd Center in Portland which I loved. After that, I thought for sure we were headed to Seaside. He totally punked me when we pulled up to the River Place Hotel. It was such a nice place!
Hanging out by the water...
That night we ate at The Old Spaghetti Factory. I loved the location, decor and food of this place. I'm sure we will be going back there.
Photo shoot after dinner...
Later that night we walked around downtown Portland. Seeing how I am just a small town girl from Missouri, this was quite the experience for me. From the random people yelling at the top of their lungs, to the fun ride on the Max, I loved it, and I think Ev loved watching my reactions to it all.
Thanks, Ev! I look forward to what you will surprise me with next year!

You've had a Birthday, Shout Horray!
Though I am not big on birthday blog's, when it's you wife, I think they are allowed. In fact, they may be required depending on what else you have planned.
Without further or do, 21 things I love about Whitney. (With getting to cheesy and lovie dovie on ya'll). You are also encouraged to comment and write things you love about Whit.
21. She makes me want to be better, much better.
20. She scratches my neck and back in church and keeps me alert and attentive all at the same time.
19. She makes my mom love me even more, and makes my Dad think I am even smarter than I am, because I married her.
18. She is great motivation when it comes to sales, when it feels like everyone hates you and wants you off their doorstep.
17. She is not only a fabulous wife, but also a great sister, daughter, daughter in law, sister in law, etc etc and mother...jk, not yet.
16. She has been a huge help on "Project Turner House."
15. She is so much fun to spend everyday with.
14. She is famous, and that kind of makes me famous. I still get texts/calls about her GC showing.
13. She is very smart and beats me in our GPA competition every semester!
12. She can throw a football.
11. She consistently beats me in Yahtzee, Balderdash and Uno.
10. She takes a lot of the phone talking time, so that I don't have to take as much. In case you were unaware I am not a big phone talking fan.
9. She now loves tennis.
8. She is a great trash talker.
7. She lets me play lots of basketball, softball and tennis even on busy schedule where our time is limited.
6. She is gorgeous, sorry I know, dead give away.
5. She is a great cook, and willing to try to new meals. It is so nice to not have her in school taking 21 credits so we eat a nice meal together every night about 10pm.
4. She lets me watch cool shows that normal wives probably wouldn't put up with like" Modern Marvels, Deadliest Catch, Law and Order, Man vs Wild, HGTV everything, everything sports/ESPN, and many more. And doesn't tell my guy friends about the girly shows I watch with her, which will not be named here!
3. She is awesome with babies, and makes me want to have a few of our own! Just watch her with Jocy-pants and you will know exactly what I am talking about. (Just ask Adge)
2. She has never missed one of my intramural games since we have been married. And in case you are not aware thats about 2-3/week for the last two years. Wonder how long that streak will run?
1. She talked to me. On August 30th 2005, her famous 2 lines you have all heard a thousand times will never be forgotten: one- "Are you trying to cut?" and number two- "I want to work for sportscenter."
