Tragedy, Triumph Experienced on Weekend Camping Trip

Tragedy: This is a hand-drawn picture of our camping trip. This picture is hand-drawn because we (read: “I”) remembered to bring our camera, but forgot the batteries. Sigh.
Triumph: Seeing as how we hadn’t been camping in going on two years, we triumphantly packed up the Frontier and traveled the dusty back roads to the little …

Hose Pwns Joshua, Mama; Incites Male Nudity

So the other day we were in our backyard doing some spot watering on our fledgling garden (“Fledgling?” You say? “In July!?” You say? Yeah… What of it!?), when we turn to see Joshua taking the initiative on keeping cool : i.e.– hosing himself down.
The party in his pants quickly moved to shirt and …

If Summertime was Single, We’d Marry It.

We love summer. And not just any “love”- passionate, groping, sweaty, giddy, blind love. Yeah, that’s right. I mean LERRRRRVE. There’s nothing better than sprawling out on the cool lawn on a comfortably warm summer evening, eating meat and salad off a paper plate, jumping into water any time you want, an 8:30 pm sunset …

Happy Birthday to We

I don’t know if you guys heard or not, but yesterday was kind of a big deal. That is, it was the official recognition Dan and Joshua Day: the day the world became a slightly more bodacious place way back in 1974 and a little more recently in 2005. Yes, it was the dual threat …

From there it …

These photos were a loooooong time coming (the relay was June 20-21st) but for everyone wanting to see what the Ragnar Relay was all about, here they are.
You can click on the link above to get more detail, but in short, the relay is a 178 mile run that winds through some gorgeous …

Vinton BBQ “Utah Chapter”

Heres some pics of the ole Logan BBQ/Pool Party! Thanks again for hosting it Dan and MC.

Uncle Ben Uses Legs, Head, Brawn to Win Shirt

Thanks to the lovely (and currently estranged) Brooke, I’ve obtained pictures of Ben working it all out and crushing the competition on the Fields of the Beautiful Game in windswept Rexburg, Idaho.

Behold! As Ben steals the ball from a girl!

Marvel! As Ben heads the ball into the stratosphere!
Thanks in part to Ben’s mad defensive skills, …

Rebuilted!

Hot Dog! As you can see, the blog has been updated. I (thanks to much help from my pal Andy) upgraded to the latest version of WordPress and added new theme. This allows everyone to see who actually posted, includes recent comments, post histories, categories, a calendar and the ability to change the header and …
