My Blog

Well I decided a while ago that I was going to write a book. It is more of a retroactive journal that I need to write. I decided that rather than just writing on my computer I would take advantage of this blogging idea and broadcast these stories as I go. I don't know if anyone other than my family will care but I just wanted to put it out there for people to enjoy. I plan on posting once a week or more often if I feel inclined to do so. Anyway I'm going to have fun with it so maybe someone else will also. Here is the link to the blog or you can click on it in the list.

Our Meager Little Garden

This blog is as a result of Brandon Hess. He told me the other day at the Salt Lake

Buzz game we went to that our blog stuck. He made the comment because we haven't

blogged very frequently. So, here you go Brandon this one is for you.

We have been pretty busy lately. Jess left for the MTC on wednesday June 3rd. It was a really quick goodbye because the MTC is afraid of the Swine Flu spreading anymore that it already has inside. A total of 3 missionaries have it. Needless to say my Mom wasn't a happy camper after we threw Jess out on the curb and got run off by a cranky old Elder missionary. This is about the only decent picture we got of Jess before he had to go inside. We didn't even get to see his missionary tag.

On to other items of interest. Today when I got home from work Britney and I decided to see how green our thumbs really are. I planted actual plants in a big pot, which included: corn, carrots, peas, onions, and little tiny pumpkins. I really don't know if they will actually grow, but it will be fun to see what comes up. I'm mostly excited for the corn. I think it will be amazing if i can get it to grow in a pot. To tell you the truth there it probably too much trying to grow in one pot. Britney on the other hand got some flowers and and put them in her own pots.

This is my mini garden

This is Britney's flower garden in the process.

And here is the finished product.

We are having tons of fun being home this summer. I didn't realize what it was like to not be a slave for the summer. We'll see if we can make this a more frequent event.

Well Britney figured out how to do the cute little background. I plan on figuring out how to add pictures and stuff like that. I've got time right now since I am home alone with Beautiful Britney hanging out with her Mom in Eagle. It was her birthday on Saturday, so we went up to celebrate with her family. Her family has gotten a little spread out recently. She has a brother on a mission in Alabama and another one in Norway. She has a sister who lives with her husband in Kentucky. Also her older sister was vacationing in Mexico for a few days. We had a a lot of fun playing frisbee golf and bowling, and you can't forget to mention good old homemade birthday cake.

If she was writing she would have to mention her favorite birthday meal "CRAB." Personally I am not a big seafood fan, but depending on the day I can handle crab and shrimp but never fish. I will probably never find a love for seafood. This year she asked me if I was going to eat crab and I said it all depends on the first bite. It was actually a prophetic statement, because the first bite I happened to be a bad piece of crab that tasted heavily of fish. I gagged it down and knew that this year wasn't meant to be. I settle for some breaded shrimp and left the table as soon as I got a little bit full. Britney wasn't sad though because that meant she got more of the crab.

She should be back tomorrow night, and I am glad. It isn't very much fun to sit around alone and know I have to homework without anything more exciting to do.

Well I decided to make Britney a Blog to play with. I have no idea what I'm doing, but I decided if I started it then she would figure it out. Mainly I decided it was fun to see what other people were doing and thought maybe people want to see what is happening in our life occasionally. Hopefully it works out and we can figure out how to use this blogging thing.
