HOT DOGS!






Meet Amanda and Sam...or is it Sam and Amanda...or is it the Richards?............... Ahhh I'm not ABC's!





These two carnivores are madly in love and boy does it show?



They have been married now for 5 months. Everyone remember? August 1st right? Polka Dots? It was a smash. So what have these two love birds been up to?









Well, Sam is working on fulfilling his dream of playing for the Utah Jazz. Amanda has been very supportive of this. She even agreed to work overtime nannying her nieces and nephews. Some people have been saying that she floats down from the sky with her umbrella. She is an excellent wife as well. She cooks and cleans and slaves away to keep Sam alive.



They are both studying hard in school even as we speak. Luckily they have lots of ways to burn off some of some steam, like going to the Utah games. Yes Josh, the University of Utah...the team that beat BYU....bad. Thanks, Sam and Amanda for staying true to your Utah roots that your beloved parents instilled in you.








Sam however has been working hard to save our economy. He has been nominated for a position in President-elect Obama's economic revitalization committee. He has been asked to serve as Lead Teller at Wells Fargo Bank to help stabilize our economy. He has two jobs. He delivers packages of bacon to Kim who is lost up in the woods. (Amanda rides in the carriage though, she is scared of wolves). Second, He works day and night handing out stimulus packages to loyal customers who go through his drive-through. The only sad part is then they pull forward from the window sucking on that yummy sucker he has just given them and....oh no!!!!! ram the back of his car .


The last piece of news is that Sam and Amanda are...





excited for Christmas. They will be giving out signed autographed posters of Sam's accident.





Yes, don't you want to know what happened. Well, it is a great story. See, Sam loves Doritos. It is his life-blood, especially with Pace Salsa. Now, one day, he and amanda were at the grocery store. Sam wanted Doritos, Amanda wanted Skittles- her daily sustinence. The got into a little tiff, and well, as they were "hotly" debating which product to buy, all of a sudden, a cat jumped out from the shelf of chips and landed on Amanda's back. Sam new he had to do something. He had promised to love and protect her all the days of his life and so he sacrificed his addiction to save her and grabbed the cat. It freaked. Then Kim ran out from the shelf of chips. She had been hidding eating doritos in the shelf and tried to get the cat off Sam, but it was too late. Kim knew she should never have taken Tiger to the store with her. Tiger was still hungry and knowing that Tiger loves Doritos too, was upset at Amanda for wanting Skittles. So Tiger attacked. Sam's face has been healing, slowly. It will be back to normal some day. They finally decided to get both the Doritos and the Skittles.



Thank goodness they have each other. We are so grateful to have them. We love you both and I would now like to do a post on the 10 things I love most about each of them, but that would be too cheesey and annoying so I won't. Merry Christmas Richardseses.
