Jared's Look-Alikes

Jared's not so sure about his look - alikes. Maybe he doesn't really look like any celebrities. We were suprised that David Copperfied and David Duchovney weren't on his list.

My Celebrity Look Alikes

My cousin Rachel put me on to this. I'm glad that there were lots of women faces for me to choose from. What do you think?

Oh Captain, My Captain

A Warning!

8 Apr 2008

Don't put a glass pie plate on a hot unit.

Oh the humanity!

For All You Skeptics Out There!

7 Apr 2008

For all you circus folks out there who think that moving to Texas is a bad idea because of the heat - take a look at these pictures I took of my yard in Utah last week! It wasn't even this snowy at Christmas. Oh wait, yes it was! It's been snowing for 8 solid months!!! Arrrgggghhhhh!!! I can't wait to get out of here.



Easter Egg Hunt!

6 Apr 2008
I know that this is a little late but we really did have a fun easter egg hunt on easter. We all went to Grandma James' house and found eggs full of candy. Then we ate lots of candy and probably went to bed without brushing our teeth. Yay for dental insurance!

This is William. He has a pink basket because he forgot his and had to borrow one from Grandma.


This is Derek. Notice the Thomas the Tank Engine toy clutched firmly in his left hand. Even candy cannot make Derek forget about Thomas.

This is Tyler. He of course found the most eggs. We made him share.

This is Jared. I guess his egg had a dog in it.

A Fish Out of Water

2 Apr 2008

Tyler did his first book report! I am so proud of him. I am also amazed that they are assigning out book reports in kindergarten now. When I was in kindergarten all we learned how to do was color on paper instead of walls and pronounce our own names correctly. Well, maybe I'm exaggerating a little, but I'm sure that I didn't do a book report. Anyway, Tyler chose to do his on a book called "A Fish Out of Water." I don't know if it's his favorite book, but it's by far my favorite book to read to him so he might have picked it to make me happy. It's about a boy who feeds his fish too much and it turns into a giant fish.

Jared and I helped Tyler to make a paper mache fish sculpture and type out 5 sentences about the book. It was a big hit at parent night! Unfortuneatly, all the other kids had posters and so Tyler felt left out and wished that we'd done a poster instead. So here's advice for all you budding parents out there - don't be creative or awesome, just help your kids make boring old posters.
