An Easter Poem by Kinlee

I found this poem on the desk of the office today so I thought I would share it :)

5 Little Bunnies

5 little bunnies sitting on a bench
The 1st one said "Do you have a wrench?"
The 2nd one said "Let's go have some fun!"
The 3rd one said "Should we go run?"
The 4th one said "I'm too tired."
The 5th one said "Wow I just got fired!"

Haircut

So I took the girls for a haircut the other day. It was Kaitlyn's first real haircut at the salon. I had always just trimmed the back myself, but I am no pro and she needed a good cut and style. She was so cute, she was getting a deep condition here sitting under the heat for a few minutes looking at a magazine...






The finished products!!

One Hardcore Chick



Thought I would post this picture to let Jill know that she is one hardcore chick. She has been religiously going to Crossfit for 7 or 8 months now and from the picture you can see that it is really agreeing with her.

My Nemesis



I love diet coke.... man do I love diet coke. I love diet coke so much that a few years ago I bought a wine fridge and put it in the pantry so I could stock it full of my diet coke just to keep it chilled at 37.5 degrees. Anyone that loves diet coke knows that this is the optimal temperature to store it, this is in part because this temperature allows more carbonation to be released, thus creating a bigger head. There is nothing better than coming home and popping a nice cold aluminum can of coke, letting it fizz and then gulping it down. Just writing about it makes me want to go get one.
Anyways as part of our new years resolutions Jill and I are doing "theme months" where we pick something we need to do better at and try to improve on it. At first I thought "how can I improve on drinking diet coke?" Then my beautiful, but slightly crazy wife informed me that this meant that I was limited to two cans a day. I must be the crazy one to agree to such a thing. I thought last months "sugar free" month sucked, but this is taking it to a whole new level. Anyways I will let you know how it goes. Whether I last the month or cave in, either way it isn't going to be pretty.

Chuck and Larry


I have a terrible memory.. I admit it. For years the two oldest have been known as Chuck and Larry. (from an old Adam Sandler movie). I might not remember their names all the time, but I remember the good times we have together, here we are at the Jazz game last night. The Jazz lost but Chuck, Larry and I had a good time together.

Christian turns 3

So our little Dude turned 3 today!! I can't believe it. Seems like he was just a baby yesterday. Well, he still kind-of is because he isn't potty trained yet. hee hee. He was so cute when we sang happy birthday to him, he got all shy and covered his face until we were done singing...

He tried to blow out the candles before the singing even started...


I love these next few pics of Dude, just shows his cute little personality...








We love you little Dude and we are so glad you came to our family!

Run-in with the shower

So the other morning Dylan went in to use my shower and next thing I know I hear a loud scream coming from my bathroom. I went in there and Dylan was on the floor holding his head and blood was gushing everywhere. Apparently he got in to turn on the water and turned around to get out while the water warmed up and hit his head against the side of the glass on the shower. I called Aunt Lisa (aka. Dr. Lisa) over to see if it needed stitches and she said it probably did. I decided to call our kind neighbor Scott Rees (who really is a doctor) just to see what he thought and he was coming home from an all-nighter at the hospital and dropped by and put that medical super glue on the wound to close it. Dylan was thrilled that he didn't have to get stitched and I was thrilled we didn't have to go sit in the emergency room for hours. :) Anyway, he wishes it were a better story like he was catching some air while skiing or something like that but unfortunately it was just a fluke accident with the shower. You never know what's going to happen! :)
