This is the same as last year except I replaced the cat with Will. I love his chocolate covered face and I think it is cute when he drives.

Happy Halloween!!! Despite the Knight and Princess theme I had going, I ended up with a little pumpkin, two knights, and a policeman. I couldn't believe the amount of candy that collected at my house between the ward carnival/trunk-or-treat on Wednesday, the school parties on Thursday, and neighborhood trick-or-treating on Friday. Even more amazing is that it is all completely gone now. They should all be sick! Eli wore his costume night and day for three days straight. A great big thanks to my mom for helping me construct the knight costumes! I'm glad Halloween only comes once a year, and if I find one more sucker stick "stuck" to the carpet I'm going to scream!

people say that i'm a dreamer...

You Are Most Like John F. Kennedy

You live a fairy tale life that most people envy. And while you may have a few dark secrets, few people know them.

What Modern US President Are You Most Like?

interesting. this gave me a clue to what issues i find important

Your Issue Profile: 44% Obama, 56% McCain

Truth be told, you're not really satisfied with either of the candidates. You could vote for either of them. You are the typical coveted swing voter. You may want to narrow yourself down to a particular set of issues in order to pick your president. Or start looking at third party candidates. One of them might suit you better.

Should You Vote for Obama or McCain?

hey i am a raccoon!

You Are a Raccoon

You are very curious. Your curiosity has led you to learn a lot about the world... including some things you rather not know. You are also very sneaky. You can blend in when you need to, and no one really knows what you are up to. At times, you can be morally dubious. You're willing to do a lot to get ahead, even if it means stepping on other people's toes. You are generally passive and tend to work behind the scenes. But if someone challenges you, you get downright nasty!

What Animal Are You?

i am glad i am a raccoon. i like raccoons. i don't know if i like the description though.

I need to stop taking these silly quizzes...Bill Clinton???

You Are Most Like Bill Clinton

No doubt, your legacy may be a little seedier than you'd like. But even though you've done some questionable things, you're still loved by almost all.

What Modern US President Are You Most Like?

This is Probably Why I Can't Decide Who to Vote For...

Your Issue Profile: 52% Obama, 48% McCain

Truth be told, you're not really satisfied with either of the candidates. You could vote for either of them. You are the typical coveted swing voter. You may want to narrow yourself down to a particular set of issues in order to pick your president. Or start looking at third party candidates. One of them might suit you better.

Should You Vote for Obama or McCain?

My Friend was a panda...I want to be a panda...I tried it several times...I was a chicken every time I tried...

You Are a Chicken

You are a naturally curious and inquisitive being. You are often poking your nose where it doesn't belong! Collecting nuggets of knowledge is important to you. You enjoy knowing everything you can. You are very independent and strong willed. You don't like to be bossed around, and you do as you please. You are quite determined and able to take on challenges. You will “peck away” at a problem until it's gone.

this is from thanksgiving 2006.

Labor Day

We had so much fun camping at Emigrant Springs near Pendleton. Thanks for the great idea, Becky! I really enjoyed spending time with family and I enjoyed the Oregon Trail history.

We are all very exhausted. I had to wake the girls up. They are in the bathtub quickly washing off the campfire smoke before I haul them to daycare. And so begins another great school year....

I got up early to do laundry, unpack, and make a movie of our adventures. I'm happily exhausted. It has been a great summer.

Rachel narrates a little bit, but Erin Joy was too sleepy to talk so I gave up on getting a commentary from her.

Opening Pitch at the Chukars game

Ted had a blast throwing the opening pitch on August 18th. He did decide wearing a complete Bonneville Bees uniform was a bit much. Scott, Conner, and Eli got to go out on the field with him. And Conner also brought home his first foul ball. This summer he has been coming home from games pretty disappointed....and crying...that he didn't get a ball.What a fun night!

william and mallory
