Family Pics

We just got our family pictures back-we had them done at our house and then we got the cd to keep and make copies of whichever ones we like. Recognize the box Mom and Dad? It says "Welfare Services" on the side. There are some good ones I will have to post later.

But Wes found the picture for Our Christmas Card this holiday season, he said, "this has got to be our Christmas Card!" I agree, it is quite memorable.

We have never got them out on time so we will see...

But this picture really takes the cake

Unfortunately it is not of all of us...

The saying to go with it will be

Hope your Holiday season is overflowing with Joy

Classic Cactus

Sorry we couldn't resist

Dino Park in Ogden with Camisha and Berklie! What a fun (hot!) pioneer day!Is it just me or is this summer flying by?

We got to eat at Rainbow gardens or "The Greenery", then spent a hot couple of hours with the dinosaurs.

On Friday we got to see baby Karlyn, Richard, Sara & Jocelyn for a minute at the gateway(Megan got married in the SL temple). Kara, Kindall, Russell, Jane, Cactus and I rode the front runner down to the gateway to meet them for pizza. That frontrunner is way fun, i suggest checking it out if you haven't yet. We also went to the drive in movie on Wed for Lisa's b-day, I forgot how fun those are...a good way to be able to watch a movie with two little kids.

Stinky but Happy

Yes right now I totally stink, but for those of you who know me well, you will know I am totally happy. My friend Stacey let me clean horse stalls, yes that's right LET me clean horse stalls this weekend for her.

This is bliss.

I HATE YOU!

I hate that I had to spend all day with you instead of playing with my poor children and lazing in bed until 10:30. I loathe how you strip my day of fun activities and blog stalking.

I can't believe how you have brazenly turned my family to your evil ways. Even my 6 month old baby has contributed to your evil cause. How dare you. How do you sleep at night?

I'm pretty sure you don't have any friends. I have yet to hear a positive statement about you. Sure I burn a few calories, but I'd rather go on a walk. My whole life I have tried to escape you and find shortcuts away from you. But still you loom dark and dismal in all the corners of my home.

I hate that when I do spend all day long with you I should feel a sense of accomplishment, but instead I find your friends Dusting and Wall Washing and Corner Vacuuming laughing and pointing at me. You taunt me with your never-endingness.

I would rather pay someone to do you, but then I feel guilty.

I abhor how you wait for me to return from vacation, or work or shopping with open arms.

And when I spend all day in your throes, you trick me. You trick me because I forgot all about going to the grocery store to buy something to cook for dinner.

For Shame.

I declare WAR. No longer will I bend to your wicked will. Not war as in a proactive sort, but in a Ghandi/Martin Luther King Jr. passive war. I will close my eyes to you. I will pretend the garbage should be overflowing. I will ignore the smell coming from the sink.

You will not conquer my spirit.

I am done with you....

Until someone comes over.

Or Wes needs clothes for work.

Or my kids need a bath.

Yours in eternity whether I like it or not,

Kristine

P.S. tell your friend Dirty Diapers that just because he is attached to something so achingly adorable that doesn't make us friends either...

and he stinks

Flaming Gorge

We just got back from Flaming Gorge and the trip was worth it. Our boat even cooperated and waited for the last day on the way home to break down.

Thanks Green Hornet!
