Below is an article in the newspapers here in Utah of me being the new Volleyball coach at Timpanogos High School in Orem, Utah. I was really excited when it came out. This article also came out in the Utah Daily Herald. I'm really excited to start working with the girls at Timpanogos. I'm also excited to be a part of the Timpanogos coaching staff.
NEW COACH: Timpanogos High School is pleased to announce the hiring of Lisa Magalei as head volleyball coach. Coach Magalei and her husband recently moved to Utah from Southern California where she was the head girls and boys volleyball coach at Bell High School for 10 years. Lisa Magalei's girls teams were California Eastern League champions in 2005, 2007 and 2008 and her boys teams were league champions in 2003, 2005, 2007 and 2008. Lisa Magalei played volleyball at Cal State University, Dominguez Hill from 1993 to 1996.
"We are thrilled to welcome Lisa to our THS coaching staff," said assistant principal Debbie Zirbes. "She brings a great deal of coaching experience and enthusiasm. Her knowledge of and love for the game of volleyball will really add a positive influence to our program. Lisa is excited to meet the girls and will shortly be announcing plans for open gym times and summer camp information."
My niece Isabella Ann Purcell was blessed today, March 8 2009. She was blessed by her father, Dicky Purcell. In the circle, were the bishopric of the Harvard Ward, my father and my husband. She was so adorably beautiful in her gorgeous white dress. Below are a few pictures we took with her and with william, her brother.

This here is my nephew William. He is my younger brother Dicky and his wife Melissa's son. He is such a character, this kid. My husband and I went out to watch him on Wednesday, March 4th at his gymnastics class and I took a few pictures and even captured him on video. I think you'll get a kick outta watching the video of going through his obstacle course. He was funny, cause he could not wait in line for his turn and he's caught several times cutting in line infront a few of the little girls in his class. Enjoy!
William waiting to get started on his little jumping, swinging, rolling, hand stand and cutting in front of girls workout.
One of the exercise skills William had to perform during his class.
William doing a turn on the hand bars with a little help from his gymnastics coach. She was honestly thinking, "man, this kid is impatient" LOL...
Another one of his skills task he had to perform was hanging and swinging on the bar.
