Logan Canyon

Jessica and I wanted to add something to our blog that was about us so we decided to take a drive up Logan Canyon to see the scenery and get some photos. These were taken at second dam. Click here for more photos

Things that Make Me Want to Vomit, Vol. 4

BARNEY FRANK, ECONOMIC GENIUS - Massachusetts sure knows how to pick 'em.

Things that Make Me Want to Vomit, Vol. 3

Ok, you've probably received the e-mails that say Barack Obama is a Muslim, or that he doesn't salute the flag, or that he eats puppies. Well, here's something that's actually true. This is an article about Obama's stance on the abortion issue. I've never read a more interesting analysis of the politics of "pro-choice." Read it here.

Things that Make Me Want to Vomit, Vol. 2

This one will probably make you laugh before it makes you vomit. This is a video of some people who are awfully fond of trees.

Hockey Update

After the first game I was traded to Napoleon's Dynamite because they didn't have enough players. I've posted some photos of our most recent hockey game, which we lost 7-6. I'm #11. Here's how our other games have gone:
W - Dynamite 9, Transformers 1
L - Dynamite 5, Razorbacks 6
W - Dynamite 5, Ice Monkeys 3
L - Dynamite 6, Transformers 7

I play forward, mostly left wing and center. I have 4 goals and 3 assists so far this season.

Things That Make Me Want to Vomit

I thought I would add a series to this blog called "Things that Make Me Want to Vomit" since it isn't very hard to find these things in the news these days.
Today's entry is from congress (go figure) where they are talking about removing the tax benefits from 401 K's that encourage individual retirement planning. The congressmen even called the lack of taxing this money "subsidies." WARNING! This article may cause excessive vomiting. Read it here.

We were tagged, by Celeste!

This is part of Celeste's picture tag, go to her blog to see what I'm talking about.

1. Kitchen Sink - It's actually pretty clean, the bowl is from breakfast today and that jar used to have Grandma's delicious marmalade jam in it

2. Laundry Room - Yep, that's right, we have SIX washing machines!

3. Fridge - Pretty boring stuff: last year's USU football schedule magnet, visiting teaching assignment paper, old receipts, and the not so boring stuff like my hockey schedule and a Total Care Wellness Center magnet.










I also thought I should include this cool thing made by my mom because we use that as our second fridge.










4. Bathroom - Very exciting, eh?










5. Closet - I like this feature of our apartment, we have an entire wall of closet space. Celeste said we weren't supposed to clean anything up so that's why a certain piece of protective equipment that I wear for hockey is hanging off one of the doors. Sorry.









6. Favorite Room - Hmmm, there were so many choices, but I had to go with our livitchen room, since that is where we eat food and read books. (The kitchen is the other side of this room.)







7. Favorite Shoes - This seems like such a girl thing to do, but it was pretty easy since I don't have very many shoes to choose from. I wear my black dress shoes every day, my $3 flip flops are very comfortable, and I love hockey. The combined price I paid for these shoes was $73 before tax.





8. Self-portrait - Again, Celeste said we weren't supposed to clean anything, so I didn't comb my hair.








9. Children - This is the closest thing we have to a kid since our fish died: Commy-Pig!













10. Dream Vacation - I would love to go to a couple of my mission areas, Puerto Vallarta and San Blas, and see all the things that I didn't get a chance to see.
