Happy Birthday Dad
Why I love my Dad (for his birthday)
1. I love your outlook on life. You are always ready to laugh, and you don't let the situation get you down.
2. I love that you love your grandkids. There is nothing as sweet as watching you hold your brand new grandbaby.
3. I love the way you treat Mom. You and mom have been a great example to me, and I hope that Peter and I can have what you have.
4. I love how excited you get for projects. Peter and I still laugh over the instructions that you sent us to fix the bookcase.
5. I love that you are willing to visit us. It is so much fun to have you come and stay for awhile, and I am so grateful that you are willing to come.
6. I love that you are always willing to help. Whenever we need an answer I think of you first. You have given some great advice, and we appreciate it so much!
7. I love that you can laugh at yourself. It helps me to try and do it myself. Where would we be if we couldn't laugh at ourselves?
8. I love that you are my dad. I feel so blessed to have been able to grow up under your care and guidance. You have helped shape me into the person that I am today, and I will always be grateful for that. I hope that you have a wonderful birthday! I love you!

Hyrum 3 months old
Kristi, I can change the "story" if you want! Let me know what you would like it to say.
This Little Piggy went to…
When Isaac and Kade stayed with us, I played, "This little piggy" with them. When you think about the words, they don't really make any sense. Isaac must have thought that, too, because he came up with two different lists that he liked better. This first list is for ALL fingers and toes!
This little piggy:
- Ate roast beef
- Went in a house
- Came out of the house
- Hid under a tree
- Jumped out and said, "boo"
- Played basketball with his friend
- Watched TV
- Went back in the house
- Hid under the table
- Went to his friends house
- Played a TV game
- Played with a fire fighter truck
- Listened to Narnia (book on CD)
- Played a Spiderman video game
- Did his chores (good little piggy!)
- Went to swimming lessons
- Went to a parade
- Hunted for bears
- Hunted for dinosaurs
- Went to their new house in Idaho
This next list is just for the ten toes:
This little piggy:
- Went to school
- Played video games with his friend
- Snuggled with his brother
- Played checkers
- Played with dinosaurs
- Rocked on a rocking chair
- Did a hand stand
- Played with toy TV's
- Played with his brother
- Went to Oakley's house
I'd say he is a pretty clever little boy!

Does this sound like anyone you know?
You Might Be an Engineer If ...

You forget to get a haircut (for 6 months!)

Tender Mercy
We just had a tender mercy I thought I would share. You remember the newspaper bucket. It gets pretty full and yesterday I told your dad that we should empty the bucket for garbage pick up today. How hard do you think it would be find a piece of paper that is 3 1/2" x 8" in that pile of papers if you were looking for it? Well, Reed just happened to pick up the papers in the right sequence so that piece of paper we have been looking for, for 2 weeks was just sitting there. It was a check for $205! It must have been on the table and got scooped up with the paper one day. We are just thankful that the Lord looked out for us one more time!
