August 3rd, 2008 · 4 Comments · bridget, random

I’m convinced that someone could write an entire blog just of things toddlers say. An entry a day (or more) would be no problem. Anyway, here are a few more Bridget funnies for your reading enjoyment. I’m Freaking out We were going for a walk and Bridget ran through some neighbor’s sprinklers. The water was […]

Word of the day: Oligopoly

August 2nd, 2008 · 1 Comment · college life, dave, random

When I was helping Dave study for his Economics final yesterday, I was reading some of his past test questions and quizzing him. A word kept creeping in that I hadn’t heard before. I didn’t know the definition of the word, and I kept pronouncing it wrong. After butchering it a few times I finally […]

Perspective

July 31st, 2008 · 1 Comment · a day in the life, bridget, random

A couple of days ago I told Bridget that we needed to go to the grocery store. She didn’t want to go with me, so I used the argument that we didn’t have any food in the house and that if we didn’t go to the store we wouldn’t have anything to eat for dinner. […]

College Friends

July 30th, 2008 · 2 Comments · college life, random, the funniest people we know, tina

Last Wednesday, a couple of good friends from college came over for lunch. Kari was one of my roommates from 2002 to 2004. And Michelle was a good friend of ours – though she really should have been our roommate too, she really is one of the funniest people we know! Now we are all […]

The 24th of July ended up being a crazy, busy day… but it was tons of fun! After breakfast Bridget and I headed out with Lee Ann to try and gather a few more photos for our ward directory. At 10:30 we went to story time. At 11:00 we headed up to the Logan City […]

Bedtime Story

July 28th, 2008 · 6 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, dave, random

With Dave being in school this summer, sometimes he ends up going to bed before (or around the same time as) Bridget. One particular night… it was about 8:45 p.m. … Dave asked Bridget if she’d like to tuck him in. “Sure dad,” she replied. She pulled back his blankets and covered him up when […]

Jackpot, toddler style

July 27th, 2008 · 1 Comment · a day in the life, bridget, random

Last Wednesday I went to Smithfield Implement to pick up a Camp Chef for my dad – they were having a sale. The store opened at 9:00 a.m. Not knowing how many they would still have available, and recognizing that I had other commitments that would tie me up most of the rest of the […]

Spiderman Loves Me

July 25th, 2008 · 5 Comments · bridget, random

Just a little background here… For those of you that don’t know, the “I love you” sign in American Sign language is the same hand-shape Spiderman uses to shoot spider string (or web) from his wrists. The orientation of the hand is just a little different. Here are some images to illustrate my point. American […]

Happy Pioneer Day!

July 24th, 2008 · 3 Comments · random

I know its only a holiday for us Utahns – but why not celebrate?!? Here’s a little video to brighten your day. It has nothing to do with the pioneers for which this holiday was established, but I guess the presidential candidates are pioneers in their own way. Please enjoy!

Blossom-end Rot

July 23rd, 2008 · 1 Comment · domestic attempts, random, tina

You may remember that I don’t garden… It generally just doesn’t agree with me. Despite this fact, I decided awhile back to plant tomatoes. Its been pretty dry lately, so I’ve been watering them twice a day. But apparently not enough , because the leaves still managed to look wilted during the hottest parts of […]
