So I've completely been avoiding putting these links on my blog over the last few days. This whole experience has been so interesting! Marty and I have been trying to be really compliant to what the ad agency and Rocky Mountain Power wants us to do, but let me say we are not professional tv personalities. I know they don't expect us to be, but it makes me have a greater appreciation for all those beautiful people in front of the camera who are witty, quick and at ease. We definitely are not that! But we did an ok job and hopefully the tv interviews are over. We did another one for ABC, but I don't have the link. Here is the link for the FOX 13 interview we did a few mornings ago. Click Here.
We also did an interview for the Salt Lake Tribune. A disclaimer about the picture... I look awful:/ Everyone else looks cute which is good, but I know you all wouldn't want an ugly picture of you circulating around town. (My sister said it is definitely not my best) I bought the print version for a keep sake at Barnes and Noble... fun memory finding your family in the newspaper. So here is the link for it. Click Here.
It has been a little hard for me because everyone hasn't been so nice about the contest. There have been people that have said the money should have gone to more deserving families and other mean things. And I lay there at night coming up with what I should have said if I was quicker, etc. I hate it! I was super sensitive about it last week because I didn't want people saying mean things about Marty or me or our family in general. I know I can't control what other people say about us, but it is never fun to have people be critical to your face or in the media (which is entirely out of your control.) I can't imagine being torn apart by the media for actually doing something wrong... crazy!
Anyhoo, we are so excited and grateful and we actually went to Lowes the other night to just look around at appliances. It was really fun just to even imagine them replacing all of our old gems.
So I'm off to bed while you all watch some pretty embarrassing clips of us!
Here's to energy efficiency... remember to turn off the lights and unplug your appliances:)

Eh, Ignore the mean people. They're probably just jealous! :) I really loved your video. Totally cute and creative! Love your cute house too... So excited you won the giveaway! That is very very cool, congrats!
p.s. what are you talking about? I really thought you guys looked great on the TV clips! A whole heck of a lot better than I could do in front of a camera.
No matter who won there would be people saying stupid stuff. You did the best video according to the judges and that's all that matters. Who can argue with that. And I think you guys did great in all your media stuff. ENJOY getting your new stuff and your beautiful house!
I'm sorry people have been mean about it. I love the idea of the competition and you guys absolutely deserved it. Just know you've got way more people on your side. Congrats again, just enjoy it! :-) xoxo
