The Fly Swatter

Mom: "You are looking for the fly swatter huh?"

Zach: "Yep, the fly slaughter."

Good luck Bud. :)

My Wonderful Wife.

So if any of you know me well. You know that I get pretty good migraines on occasion. Well one night, my wife made me this.

It's a cold/hot pack that fits very well around my neck. How did she do it? Well, like anything else she does, she gets an idea, figures out the details via the internet, and then makes it.

Oh, and no, I haven't needed it yet from this weekends activities. However, I wouldn't recommend operating a backhoe for 10 hours, then running a 5k the next day. (At least don't do it without a good helping of Ibuprofen.:-)

Thanks babe!!

Backhoe today, tomorrow a 5k!!

We had quite the weekend! It started with renting a backhoe, to push all the dirt around that we've been receiving. That took all day Friday. Then Saturday started with returning the backhoe bright and early, then driving to Salt Lake to run a 5k that was part of my work party. Then we spent the rest of the morning riding trains, touring a pioneer village, riding horses, etc... It was tons of fun!!!

Happy Anniversary Babe!

Love you!

Concrete + Water + Running = ....

He's learning what an Ice pack is for. Don't worry, he's fine. :-)

In case some of you don't know my family, I will start with the fact that I have a few picky eaters. The other day I received a list of approved food from my four year old. Including things like plain noodles, chicken nuggets, pizza, etc.

Well tonight I made something that I have loved to eat, fully expecting snubbed noses. I was shocked, I didn't get a single one! They all ate until their plates were empty; even my pickiest.

We will be doing Jambalaya again.

*Note: I made ours with just smoked sausage. I think if I added shrimp I would be the only one eating, then again, maybe I should.
