Happy Birthday!!

Happy Birthday Dad! Thank you for always being there for all of us-no matter what. You are an amazing man. You can do anything!! We are all so lucky to have a Dad like you. I hope you have a really good day. Such a wonderful Grandpa too!!

We love you!

It will come

Well, thanks for your concerns. I will be blogging but you will have to wait about two weeks or so unfortunately. I do have some Physics to be studied so until then..... Love ya!!!

Blogging Strike

Well, apparently I have not blogged for quite some time now. There are good reasons for this- it is called "blogging strike". Yes, it is true! I have been on strike. I got tired of posting stuff but getting no response. Maybe I am just plain boring- that is fine- but please just tell me so I can find better things to do with my time than blog- like study Physics!! Well, if you so desire to keep me blogging than please feel free to make a comment or two. You know who you are who just peek with no comments (MOM!!) and there are plenty of others.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!! I hope you all have a wonderful day and be thankful for all that you have.

DELIVERY!

Happy new 4-wheeler day to my dad!! He bought a 4-wheeler while he was in "Utah" and we(really I) offered to deliver it for him. Good reason to get down there. It was a nice trip.

Dad made dinner that night and it was definitely the first for most of us.

Yep, that is a buffalo heart. I wanted to dissect it but Dad wouldn't let me. He cooked it instead. It wasn't that bad actually. I can't believe how big a buffalo heart really is.

you guessed it- that IS a 20 oz DP bottle. AMAZING!!The final product

So you know those bears people have that have been carved out of a log?? Well, my brother-in-law (John) is amazing and carved one just for fun (without being told how). He was wanting some logs because he already has people lined up wanting to buy some from him. I offered my Dad's amazing logging skills to provide him with some logs. While I was down we went and got some (8 in fact) and I hauled them back up and delivered them to John. I absolutely miss being on the mountains with my Dad. It was just my Dad, me, my niece (Jayden), Nikki and 6(I guess 7 (Jayden)) of the 17 grand kids that went up. Since my Dad was cutting that left just Jayden and myself to haul (or drag/roll) them down the hill. Nikki was the photographer since she is pregnant. The grand kids were alot of help. I was impressed with the boys, they worked hard and didn't quit until the logs were all down.

We stopped and got three more pieces to top the load off on our way down.

THANK YOU DAD!!!! THANK YOU MOM!!!

Thanks Mom, Mari, and Emiko that were at the house making a yummy early Thanksgiving dinner! It was delicious!

It's in the blood

What a week! Anthony and Cole had their wrestling tournament last Wednesday at Viewmont High School. They did awesome!! They both got 2nd place in their weight group/ages.
