What's In a Name!

My brother Aaron and sister-in-law Jenn are having a baby boy. Now they have kept us all in suspense as to the name. This has kept me up at night, trying to figure out the name. Will it be modern? Will it be biblical? Will he be named after his aunt? Who knows but here are some of the names I think that they will pick!

Anderson
Andrew
Buddy (the paper boy)
Bartholomew
Curt
Carlson
Daniel
Darell
Edward
Ethan
Frederick
Flower (opps think that's a girl name)
George (he was very curious)
Gleason
Henry (I think this is the one)
Hank
Ivan
Ivra
Josiah
Joshua
Ken
Kip (PLEASE NO)
Larwerence
Lupe ( I need help with the groceries-arrested development)
Marcus
Mcoy

Richard (YEAAHHH)
Raymond
Spencer
Thomas
Timothy (I think I am naming the Spamans :) )
Ugene

Now all these names came off the top of my head as I have thought of them over the past months. I know that their boys name is listed here! If not as soon as the baby is born the name is going on this list for the record! I love that son of a preacher man!

Hulking IT

So the other night we went to go help some friends put together a Gazebo,. As per usual I feel I have to be in charge barking orders left and right thinking "logically" through the easiest way to put it together. So I think why not build it upside down, this will be great cuz all we'll have to do is flip it up and WE are in business. With my supper hulk bossiness I have everyone take a side as we are ready to put it upright..."One, Two, Three!" at that moment the polls, that are one toothpick thick, starts to bend, of course I bark out "put it down" what now? We start taking the whole thing apart that we had just spent the last 17million hours putting together. At a closer look the toothpick poll is broken right at the joint and I am thinking "anyone have a blow torch handy, maybe we could sodder it?" Why would this work and how scary that I would try to do that. I do not want to be the one who thought sodder could hold together something that is house-like, can you imagine...Having great night, food, drinks, music, and BONK the whole thing hits someone on the head...Flash back to bear soddering the pieces.

It did end up being ok since we just went and bought a table and chairs set. Who needs the gazebo? Not me. If anyone happens to sit on the chairs we put together and they fall and bonk their head it is not my responsibility!

"You were flying today buddy, a little to close to the sun"

How long has it been since you've flown a kite? This was one of the gifts that my parents brought to us. I am not sure if they knew that we would end up in the middle of nowhere flying a kite...I guess so. Nemo was flying high that day and now is grounded in our garage. I have a feeling that the neighborhood kids will "accidentally" find it ask me if they can have it.
Or maybe I could tie the kite to Wilson and he could fly it, can you imagine, "WILSON the amazing dog, he can find his "kitty", eat worms, bark at the hose, go on hunger strike due to new food, and fly a kite! (see tiny picture top left corner)

"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love." 1Corinthians 13:13

This was the first family photo taken since, I can't remember. Aaron sent me an email and said this was his wallpaper so what a better place to have the family on my blog.

Love you all and miss you so much!

Obsessed

Ever since my parents came out to Utah I have been at hyper mode with planting, some may say obsessed even. Since I work at Wal-Mart I have to shop the barging everyday. Today I didn't do my usual walk around the store on my lunch hour, so in an unfortunate event my 2 clay pots broke tonight. Well I have to get new ones can't let some flowers have their roots exposed and vulnerable to the evil snails that live in the lawn so off to Wal-Mart I go. I walk into the garden center and immediately look at the .25 cent items where I found a Gerber daisy and some other annual that is purple. I will now spend the rest of the summer nursing back to life the 20+ plants I have bought under these same circumstances. I tour our yard everyday, talking to the plants, dead-heading (taking all old flowers off), watering, fertilizing, and cursing any insect or SNAIL that ruins my plants.

Is their a planters anonymous? Am I alone?

stop to smell the flowers

NINJA TURTLE

No specific reason for this picture just is one of my favorites from Kona HI. We took a trip there this past winter and I go to this place in my mind everyday. Paradise!

Here is my dad pondering his thirst...."What I need is a drink! I need some type of beverage...Maybe a barq's!
Aaaaahhhhh that's it!"

This is what Ro and I looked like after the snowball fight. Silver lake is known to cause the use of hideous glasses.

HELLO, it is just the middle of May and the mountains still have at least 3 feet of snow.... We had great fun ice fishing, making an igloo, and a friendly game of face washing. Mom and Dad ended up looking pretty good. During this cold weather mom grew over a foot to tower over dad.

Mothers Day 2006!

After a long morning of sugar bacon, breakfast pig, and coffee mom and dad had to nap. While in Utah mom and dad broke in these chairs and they still have sat in them more than us!

This is my first entry into my very own blog. Thats it.
