Kristie & Tom McConnon

This weekend Kristie ran the last installment of the Salt Lake City Track Club’s winter series, a 15k (9.3 mile) race out by the Saltair Pavilion in Magna. Her doctor figured that since she’s been running 5 miles a day since she was a fetus, she’s probably just fine doing it now. Kristie told me [...]

The Wagstaffs (family friends of the Tanners) invited us up to their beautiful cabin at Solitude ski resort this weekend. Being the ski bum that I am, I was beyond excited for another opportunity to get out this season. So Friday night we picked up Houston and made our way up a snowy Big Cottonwood [...]

Friday was the last day of work at my previous job. It had been a terrific 3 years, and I’m really proud of the things I learned and accomplished. My decision to move on came about when I received a job offer from another company–but then within days of that first offer, I was given [...]

Our new friends Jared and Kayleen gave us some extra tickets to the men’s hoops game on Wednesday and it was a blast. BYU’s team has had a killer season so far [watch me jinx it], and they’re playing lights out. Maybe we’ll finally make it past round one of the big dance this year..

But this time, everybody took a crack at it…even the non-cheerleaders. For [...]

Our awesome/kind/generous/etc. friends Leah and Jonny gave us their tickets to the BYU vs. CSU game because they were going away to Mexico for the long weekend. So we spent the afternoon basking in the glory of another sellout crowd and another Cougar win. At one point, after Harvey Unga ran into the endzone for [...]

Kristie and some friends are on an awesome flag football team. I’m not sure if they’ll win a game this season, but they sure do have a good time. Kristie’s got an awesome throw and quick feet, so she switches between QB and running back. I didn’t get very good pictures, but here’s a shot [...]

On Saturday BYU upset the #3 team in the nation at the brand-new Cowboys stadium in Dallas. I was beside myself. We watched the game at Leah and Jonny’s with some friends…my only regret is that we didn’t make it out to join the 2k fans that met the team at the airport when they [...]

We went with David Grant to the annual Cougar Kickoff by the IPF to meet up with old friends and get amped for the upcoming season of BYU sports. Here’s a couple pictures I took of Kristie with the old cheer gang:
