christmas card

Ok so I don't do christmas cards. If you ask me they are a waste of money. Especially since the usps has again raised their rates. I don't need hallmark to write Merry Christmas on paper for me and make it all sparkly. I can type it all by myself. Right now I am at the school listening to a choral concert all the music made me think "oh I should update my blog while I am sitting here and send out my Christmas update for the 2 people who read this blog. This year has been a fast one full of many things, not many worth listing. I did move this year to american fork. This has been a big change cuase I was raised and spent most of my life in orem. ...... ya well the concert got over and I had to work so I didn't get this finished now it is a few days later and christmas eve. I had better post this now so I don't miss it all together. Merry Christmas

Just a quick update and some pix. Jana, Chris, and kids (and any others who see this) Here are some pix of my new house I am buying (I should close the end of next week) and of my new niece.

test

I am trying this from my cell phone so I don't know how well it will work. I haven't posted forever as you can tell. I have been really busy with the end of school and summer work and construction on my building. I am also looking for a house. Needless to say I don't have a lot of free time. Oh did I mention I have been coaching baseball as well? Anyway I am sitting in line for the midnight showing of thew new Harry Potter movie and waiting for some friends to meet me, so I thought I would try it out. Anyway that is my life right now. So till later if this works.

Back to Missouri

Well this weekend I drove back out to Missouri. It was a good drive except from Lincoln Neb. down to about 30 miles outside of Kansas City. That was really slow and go. Roads were really slick and there was alot of cars slid off the side of the road.
It is really good to see the family. Jack and Gabbi have been sick as well. Jack is still having tummy probems. He is having trouble getting comfortable and letting us know what he wants. The weather here is niceish. The sun is out but it is still cold. The snow is melting. Today for dinner we are going to try my slow cooked bbq ribs. We will see how they turn out. I guess that is all for the update for now.

These are my 2 crested gecko's

Survived?

Well I survived for the most part. I only worked 3 12+ days and saved 2 for this next week. This last week has been kind of nice. The weather has been decent till this weekend when it rained and the wind blew all weekend. It could be worse at least it hasn't snowed. That will come this next week and make this week worse. I HATE THE WINTER!
Anyway, now that, that is out of my system, I can... I HATE THE WINTER!! OK let's try this again.

BORED

Well this will be 2 of 4 12+ hour days this week. Today will be 14, tomorrow should be about 15. Monday was 12 Saturday will be around 12. (I only get paid for 8) The joys of being in a salaried management position. Today and tomorrow are Parent Teacher Conferences. I am just waiting for the last few appointments to finish up so I can lock up go home, try to quickly fall asleep so I get enough sleep to do it all over again. Construction is finally looking like it is actually progressing at a snails pace instead of slower.
We had construction meeting today and we are ONLY 2 months behind. I just hope it is all done and everything can be moved over before school starts next year. -just a side note, can I just say that I enjoy construction meeting. The people (engineer, contractor, district people, general, etc) are such great people. They are very helpful and so great to work with us. It is nice that they are willing to let me (so completely stupid when it come to all the things they talk about) join them AND answer my questions when it should be completely obvious what a nksdfjiasdhwef;j is for and what it is all about and where it goes.
Anyway there is the quick update. Now to wander around till the parents all leave.

Sunday afternoon

Good afternoon all, if there are really anyone that reads this. Today is Sunday afternoon and I am waiting for football playoffs to start so i thought that I would update my blog. Work this morning was usual nothing special. I have been watching JAG and playing with Nikki , my little girl. Here are some pix.

Nikki wants a cracker

So much for my news paper

Well here I am waiting for a Turkey to cook. I got it for the holidays and never got it cooked. Now I am cooking it for Sunday dinner and I don't think that it is going to be done in time. Sorry guys. Nikki just climbed on the back of my chair and she is looking over my shoulder at the blog. Hopefully she approves, the camera does at a couple pounds. She is getting good at her tricks. She will wave with one wing, say hello, and give kisses. She does other things as well but not on cue. We will keep working on the other things. Well have a good Week or 4 until my next update.
