who me?

You Are An ENTP

The Visionary You are charming, outgoing, friendly. You make a good first impression. You possess good negotiating skills and can convince anyone of anything. Happy to be the center of attention, you love to tell stories and show off. You're very clever, but not disciplined enough to do well in structured environments. In love, you see everything as a grand adventure. You enjoy taking risks for love. And if things don't work out, you're usually not too much worse for the wear! You would make a great entrepreneur, marketing executive, or actor. At work, you need a lot of freedom to pursue your own path and vision. How you see yourself: Analytical, creative, and peaceful When other people don't get you, they see you as: Detached, wishy-washy, and superficial

What's Your Personality Type?

Thank You

What do we mean by patriotism in the context of our times? I venture to suggest that what we mean is a sense of national responsibility ... a patriotism which is not short, frenzied outbursts of emotion, but the tranquil and steady dedication of a lifetime.
—Adlai Stevenson (1900-1965),
Speech, August 27, 1952,
"The Nature of Patriotism."

What Kind of Soda Are You?

GO D-BACKS

i took isaiah to the diamondbacks game last night.
GO D-BACKS! it was a great game and they had fireworks when the game ended. he of course had a hard time sitting still so luckily there weren't a lot of people around us so we had plenty of room to wiggle. i spent most of my time gawking at the players in those sexy white pants.

Summer Movie Fun

ok is there anything better on a hot summer day than Summer Movie Fun. isaiah looks forward to this all week long. he gets to go with his friends and cousins. we go to az mills theatre so when the movie is over the kids like to play in the video arcade.

Summer Fun

isaiah is having so much fun with his new "best friend" colton. we love our new house where isaiah can ride his bike and swim. just a few pics of the boys enjoying summer.

i have been a complete slacker. i have'nt blogged in so long. i could lie and say that its because i have been really busy but the truth is I AM AN ADDICT. im addicted to lds planet. im addicted to bloq quizes that i dont even post. im addicted to other peoples blogs. its crazy. i tell myself that i am only going to quickly check my email and 3 hours later im browsing through some complete strangers family pictures. i have to stop. my house is a mess, my laundry is piling up, and isaiah is watching to much tv. somebody please help me!!!

krystals wedding

this was a lot of of fun. a couple of weeks ago one of my friends from work was getting married. leslie had this great idea of renting a hummer limo so we could all go to the wedding together. we were so excited. leslie arranged for the limo to pick us up at the office at 6:00 sharp so we could be on time for the wedding. as it turns out, apparently not everybody was excited about the limo because only 5 of us showed up. that didn't stop us from having a great time anyway. krystal looked so beautiful.

here are a few pics-

CONGRATULATIONS KRYSTAL AND STEVEN

ok so here are a few pics from my fabulous weekend with julie....and the yard sale. there were no takers on the kids.

best friend

ok only 5 more days until julie is here. i have so much to do to get ready. mostly cleaning house. does anybody else have a closet full of clothes that don't fit anymore? why do i hang on to size 6 jeans. it's never going to happen. i need to face reality. and the reality is i eat ice cream every night at 10:30pm with chocolate sauce no less. i guess there are worse things. anyway back to cleaning house. have a great day. check out the pic. it's a stroll back in time.

happy birthday elder paul westbrook

yesterday was pauls birthday and i didn't send him a card. i wish you could call missionaries. anyway happy birthday paul. i love you. keep up the good work.

The work is demanding, the impact everlasting.

This is no time for "summer soldiers" in the army of the lord.

Disneyland

on monday i decided isaiah and i needed a vacation. maybe it was really only me that needed the vacation. anyhow, i somehow talked my boss into giving me the week off and i got home from work at 5:30, booked a flight online at 6:30, and got on a plane at 7:30 and off to disneyland we went. we had a great time. we met our friends over there and spent 2 days at disneyland and california adventure and 1 day at knotts berry farm. (check out the pics) we are home now and its back to work i go. oh and we also somehow managed to potty train amidst the chaos. HOORAY!! no more poopy diapers.

Who cares?

Ok so I'm trying this blog thing even though it would seem to me I have nothing important to share. Actually the more I thought about the more I realized this could be really good cheap therapy even if nobody reads it at all. I have had such a good time reading everybody else's blogs. What a great way to keep in touch.
