Today was Saturday the 27th of September, heretofore known as Michael Davis Day, in honor of his visit. It’s not everyday someone that good-looking just waltzes into town.

In other exciting news, I got to watch Kristie coach her first White Squad game tonight at the BYU vs. Air Force volleyball game. She’s a pro and the team looked great. I’m really proud of how she’s stepped into this role, she really puts a lot of time and heart into what she does.

No football game this week…bye-week for the Cougars. Major withdrawls.

Nathan and Kendra joined us for a little sushi-and-movie date night tonight. I was debating whether we should rent Memoirs of a Geisha to keep with the Japanese theme, but then decided against it, since my sushi is about as authentic as the Chinese cast members of Memoirs. Instead we saw the half-good Hancock at the dollar theater.

I wish we got a good picture of N&K too, but they ended up with the camera while our hands were busy with the rolls. The evening got particularly exciting as we all had some “death by wasabi” close encounters.

That’s my “V” for Vizad

Jen and Preston hosted another company BBQ/shindig at their new house in Lehi tonight. We got to eat, mix and mingle while wii boxing and discussing some exciting business–the beta launch of or much anticipated LotusJump SEO tool. It’s gonna be big I tellz ya.

Friday night we went out with Houston, Amanda, Leah and her date (Houston’s bro) to The Mayan in SLC. The place was enormous…complete with live cliff divers as part of the restaurant’s “Mayan adventure” theme.

On Saturday we got to witness the Cougars shut out the Cowboys 44-0 at Lavell Edwards Stadium. It was beautiful. It was also the first time we sat in our actual seats, since we had sideline passes for the first two home games. Our seats are located on the west side, pretty far up…but they give you a terrific view of the field. Another benefit is that, due to the press box, we’re the first to get shade from the sun during the sweltering afternoon games.

Saturday night we went out with Grant and his date, who turned out to be Tracy, the younger sister of my longtime friend, Jody Farnsworth. Small world.

Sunday we cooked an amazing pork roast for 8 hours and ate like kings (thanks AJ). And to top off the evening we dropped by Harry and Sarah’s pizza night for a couple slices (who could resist?) and Dan in Real Life.

Before heading off to the Mexi date-night that Harry and Sarah had been planning, Kristie and I got to meet up with a bunch of her Eagle friends for dinner at Costa Vida. It was great catching up with all of them…they’re a blast.

After the get-together we headed to the Colony for Harry’s homemade salsa & enchiladas and Sarah’s homemade horchata. The food was terrific (we made sure to leave plenty of room). Here’s a shot of Dan, Harry and Sarah:

To top off the evening’s entertainment we watched a Mexican film entitled La misma luna, or Under the Same Moon. If you tend to enjoy foreign films, I’d check it out…definitely worth watching.
