The other day Bridget and I were outside playing with sidewalk chalk. We traced her body and added a face and some clothes (inspired by the chalk outlines drawn on our driveway this past April Fools). And then I started writing “I love Daddy” – when I told her what it said, she starting singing […]

Head First
May 8th, 2008 · 3 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, dave, family, tina
Last week we took Bridget to the park. She recently got up the courage to go down some of the bigger slides by herself, so she was pretty actively showing off. We decided it might be fun to teach her how to slide down on her belly. We were at Willow park – the big […]

Sweet Pork, Revisited
May 7th, 2008 · 5 Comments · a day in the life, food
Its been a little while since my last post about Sweet Pork. So, I thought I’d give you a little update on my progress in that regard. Not too long after the little tasting party we had, I got a comment on my blog that read: “Your recipe is far off. I personally work in […]

Music Videos: Blue & Yellow Bed Sheets
May 6th, 2008 · 3 Comments · college life, music videos, the hottest girls at USU
Sorry its been so long since my last Music Video post. I know I promised more embarrassing moments. Well, this is it! In the last post I wrote: A few nights later we pinned a blue/yellow bed sheet to the wall, added a few more random strands of Christmas lights, and an occasional fan or […]

He said. She said.

Bridget has made an interesting development in her language over the last couple of weeks. She’s started to recount events telling us who said what. Its pretty neat to watch her language develop like that. Previously she would say tell stories from her perspective only and without dialog. But now… Here are a few “He […]

That Word Means Lost
May 4th, 2008 · 4 Comments · Uncategorized
For those that aren’t in immediate contact (and to explain where why we have been ignoring all forms of contact the past little while), we got seriously addicted to the show Lost. It started a couple of months ago when my sister, Jenna, loaned us season 1 on DVD. After catching up to the rest […]

Some day my Prince will come…

Last week Bridget and I were over at Hilarie’s house playing with Kambree and Konner. We had a great time. At some point during playtime Bridget came out of the kids room dressed like this. She was so adorable. Thanks for taking pictures for me Hilarie! She has just started to really like dress up. […]

Gardening?
May 2nd, 2008 · 12 Comments · a day in the life, domestic attempts, tina
I don’t garden. I don’t enjoy gardening. I hate getting dirt under my nails. I hate gardening gloves because there always seems to be dirt or something else gross inside. Just thinking about it makes my skin crawl. And I always manage to hurt myself when I try to garden. Its just not my thing. […]

Memoir
May 1st, 2008 · 1 Comment · random
I was tagged a little while ago by Emily to write a memoir in 6 words. I wasn’t sure I was going to do it. Ya know, because sometimes these things are just like forwards in your e-mail. But I’ve been thinking quite a bit about it, and wondering what I would write. I read […]
