What instrument do you resemble most?

The ward that Tyler and I attend is in the Woods Cross High School area. Most of the people in my ward either was a student in the band or is a parent of a band member. I love all the stories that they have told me about Dad and Mom. This one happens to be the latest thing stumbled upon. Kelli (who also happens to be in some of my classes for nursing) was a student of Dad. Her daughter happened to come across this.

1. Videos of Dad that I've never seen before.

2. Good friends and their stories.

3. The look on Tylers face while he watches this.

A Quick Get Away

So earlier this week I really wanted to get out before school started again. I have been working a lot of over time and haven't had time to do anything else. I know, I know. You guys have been checking my blog every day, I'm sure, to see if I've posted anything. . I'm sorry to have let you down. :)

Sadly we didn't catch any fish. But I can honestly say for probably the first and only time in my married life that our hearts weren't into it. And when I say "our" I mean Tyler. Tyler just got into the Fablehaven books. He usually likes to take his time reading things, but this is the 3rd book and he started the series 6 days ago. I just got done with the Twilight series so I started on book one of Fablehaven. Take note that these events that I've taken into evidence with this picture will probably never happen again. There have been times when I have physically had to pry the fishing pole from his fingers.

We had the Benadryl and Prednisone ready just in case. But thankfully Misha came back with no bee stings. I had enough fun the last time that happened. I think that the last time has taught her not to go chasing after them. Although, in this picture I can almost see her having an internal argument about whether or not to go after them.
These bees were everywhere. The constant buzzing made it sound like we were in that movie with the killer bees chasing after everyone. The bees collect the pollen and keep them in sacks on their legs. They fly around with huge orange balls weighing them down. You could hear the lower buzzing from the ones that had to work harder to stay in the air. They looked extremely happy.

This picture does not do this justice. Misha does this thing where she digs around in the dirt to try to get it fluffed up. But after she fluffs she pushes the dirt back out so she can do that little circle thing to lay down. She has gotten it so bad sometime that her whole face is completely white. I think it's safe to say that she's a little spoiled. She won't lay down in that spot until every rock has been removed. Usually by the time she is done with it we are moving to the next spot.

1. No Swelling!

2. Being able to find the LAST camp site in Tony Grove.

3. Finally being able to have the day off.

So it's been an interesting weekend.

Misha has a history of allergic reactions. Tyler went for a day hike and this is how my dog came home. I took this picture two hours after we gave her the drugs. Just imagine her eyes looking like an old Asian monk. This isn't actually the worst she's had it either. I feel like we have a child sometimes when she gets sick. But I guess it's sort of a warm up for when we actually have some.

1. Best bestest Mom in the whole world

2. Benadryl and Prednisone

3. An awesome animal ER that know me well enough to give me advice over the phone.

Take a stroll down Memory Lane with me, won't you?

Leave me a memory about you and I! First time meeting, funny, sad, crazy events etc.
Here is how you play:1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember! 2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments.

1. Family

2. Jansen and Holly are going to be coming to visit!

3. The best Mom that anyone could ask for.

Sad News

With all the sadness and trauma going on in the world at the moment, it is worth reflecting on the death of a very important person, which almost went unnoticed last week. Larry LaPrise, the man that rote "The Hokey-Pokey" died peacefully at the age of 93. The most traumatic part for his family was getting him into the coffin. They put his left leg in, and then the trouble started.

Shut up. You know it's funny. I'll have updates for last week in a couple days. :)

So can you tell that I have so much going on in my life right now? I'm sitting at work trying to think of things that I could write on my blog since I really haven't put anything on there for awhile. And I saw this story on Yahoo's home page. I've recently gotten couple email from friends that talk about how gas companies aren't certifying their pumps, so you need to check the price and the amount of gas that you put in your cars to make sure that your getting the same amount of gas that you pay for. But this story is something new that I haven't heard of yet.

I know it's lame, but I'll have some pictures for you of Montana by the 21st. Tyler and I are going camping in Bear Tooth, Montana for a week. It's a long awaited trip that will be much needed. I also am getting back into showing horses and the next show I'm doing is on the 19th. I know you guys are dying to see those pictures. I'm sure it will look like this one above. :)

Here is that story of the gas scheme for anyone interested.

1. The church

2. Heating pads

3. Hot baths

AAHHHHHH!!!

Wow, so I've been trying to mess around with my background cause I was getting tired of seeing the same one over and over. I went on the internet (at work, cause it's Saturday and there is nothing to do) to look for some cute ideas. I found a good one and so I switched my HTML. It didn't work cause it said I had to have the classic blogging setting on. So I switched it over. Then all my stuff was erased. Can I just take a moment to say how computer illiterate I am? Kudos to all those computer nerds out there. To the rest of you, I feel your pain. I finally got some of my stuff back but now my list of friends is non existent. Bring on the jokes about me being friendless. I'm ready.

So here is my cry for help. Please, anyone out there know what I did?? Cause I don't really want to start all over. Plus does anyone know where I can get some cute backgrounds?

1. Computer nerds for in laws.

2. PC laptops

3. Nice doctors that bring me treats for being here.
