Winter Pictures

Kenny and Kim

Job and I went up to Vernal for my cousin Kenny's wedding. It was cold, but beautiful. The two of them are so adorable together. The first picture is of the ring ceremony that was done after the temple.

Back On-Line

We just got internet working again at our house so here are a bunch of pictures I have taken over the last week. This is a picture of our driveway one night while Job is shoveling it. He shoveled almost a foot of snow that night.

This is the morning after Job shoveled the foot of snow. It was all back on our driveway.

Lucy likes being out in the snow. She runs through it like a little Reindeer. Here she is just sitting at the door watching Job shovel snow and me take pictures. If only she was always this calm.

Last Friday we spent the night at the Rindlisbacher's house down in St. George. We went to their Ward party. Here is Kurt and Reagan, the only picture we have at the party. Reagan is a genius at two so our children will be tutored by her. Because of the crazy winter weather, St. George had some snow on the ground and some houses even had snowmen. This picture was taken across the street from the Temple. I believe it's a little boy, a snowman and the last Job says is a reindeer. An hour later, the snowman had fallen forward. Poor little guy doesn't stand a chance in St. George.

Simple Solution

Now a days I like simple. The simpler, the better. I would prefer good things, so I try my best to make them happen (most of the time failing). Like most of you, I like french toast. The drawback to making it though is the messy-eggy-milky-hands that come with every dip. I have found a solution: Yup, tongs. I used wooden ones, but I am sure others would work to. To avoid those yucky hands you just place the bread in the batter, then using your tongs, flip bread over and place in pan. Easy and simple. One warning though: the bread gets soft so move fast. You don't want scrambled french toast. Enjoy a little more often!

Blind Pickin'

Somehow all my pictures that I put on are being put in backwards. This year Job and I got a permit to cut down a christmas tree. By the time we got up on the mountain it was pretty much dark and so we were unable to see all sides of the tree. We also don't have many ornaments, so here is what I call our "Charlie Brown" christmas tree set up in our house. All we have to put our tree on is our little blue car and we tied it down with only two bungie cords and some string (wrapped around a couple times of course).

Here is Job carrying down our tree. There was quite a bit of snow on the mountain, which made walking a little more difficult at night.

Job and our tree. Somehow it looked a lot better in the dark and on the mountain. Nonetheless, it is our tree and we love it.

Disneyland

Job and I went to Disneyland with all of his family on Thanksgiving Day. It was a lot of fun with all of the nieces and nephews. We didn't get too many pictures while there, but here a some cute ones. Above is Marley and Reindeer Pluto.

We got cookies at Santa's workshop and here is Aubrey and Heather. As you can see the green on Aubrey's face, she must have loved her cookie.

Fatherhood

About the cutest video I have ever seen. This makes me look forward to being a Dad more than anything else.

Cakes

Job and I made these cakes about a week and a half ago. The first one needs practice, but I think we did good for our first time.

Cedar Mountain

The Cyclopse

The other day Job and I wanted to make cyclopse pancakes for breakfast. We saw the idea on the food network channel. Job's was so big he needed help from a cookie sheet to flip it (as shown above). It was fun- try it.

Sunday Walk

On Sunday, Jen and the Kids, Kenny and Kim, and Job, Lucy and I went for a walk up the Canyon Trail. It was fun just being together and enjoying the beautiful earth. Above: Kim, Kenny and Katie.

Lucy's Haircut

We have a dog. Her name is Lucy and we got her from the Enoch Shelter. We tried to cut her hair a while a go but she moves a lot so we decided to take her to a groomer. She looked good after 3 hours of cutting and cleaning. She even got a bandana to wear.

Christina and Kimberly Visits

Christina and Kimberly came to visit us for a week and while they were here we went to the Cemetary with flowers for our Grandpas and Uncle Todd. We took Katie and Isaac with us and they loved to help us put the flowers on the tombstones.







We also went to Orderville for the Demolition Derby. On our way there, we decided to stay the night in Kanab at Parry Lodge Motel (in the Anne Baxter room). Since we didn't bring anything to stay over, we just picked up some toothbrushes and some toothpaste at the store. While in Kanab we stopped by to see Martyn.

I took a lot of pictures at the Demolition Derby but they weren't very good, so this are the best in motion. Actually . . . it wasn't really a demolition derby, it was more of a race, but it was still pretty good. This first picture is of a car that had to be pushed out of the track because it broke down. You can tell that we were in "Hick Town" because a tractor pushed it.


The picture above is of a car that struggled. It got hit a few times and had a hard time starting back up, so it just sat there in the middle of the races. This next picture is of the event that we left during. They took a car hood and strapped an old van seat to it. Then they put people on it and drove them around the track. Some of them flew off the back- not so smart.
