HILARIOUS!!!!

The above picture is Dwight on "The Office" wearing a "3 wolf moon" shirt.  About a year ago somebody sent me a link to amazon.com for this shirt and told me to read the reviews.  They are hilarious!  The other day a friend of mine had been browsing through the reviews and came across the following review:

It is almost blasphemic to use mortal words to describe this garment. A product that carries within it the power of not one, but three times the wolf intensity. I purchased this shirt (legally must be called so, although it more closely resembles armor) after months of debating how to survive taking tank rounds to the chest. Once equipped with this modern day chain-mail, I slammed a Rockstar and was well on my way to becoming more creature than man. I bolted out the door leaving a trail of fire and wolf fibers behind me as I was ready to take on any challenge the world threw my way.

Cars and buildings disintegrated when the shirt waved in the wind as I ran by, winds that even Tom Schilling could not predict. That is when I met my destruction. I approached a trailer park where a small lad about 7 years young stood with a shirt portraying 4 wolves. HOW COULD THIS BE??? I Remember yelling... HOW????? No punch or kick was needed to defeat me. I had been out-wolved. I returned to my nest to regather myself and await in the darkness for a 5 wolf shirt that will bring about the end of man.

Til then.. $17 dollars of magnificence. Use at own risk.

New pics!

This frog was totally random. I was about to go out to the back patio and this frog was sitting on the sliding glass door. It didn't move at all so I got a couple close-up pics. Pretty cool.

This is our fabulous finance team. I get the privilege of working with these guys everyday!

Alexis posing

Carter just recently started holding pens and crayons correctly with his fingers and has become very attentive to details when coloring. I loved that he wanted to wear gloves while coloring!

A recent business trip to Salt Lake City (last weekend)

The kids in the car while we were at a stoplight

The Key Bank tower is where our (Intermountain Healthcare) Corporate

Office is located in downtown SLC

This is the Capitol building just a couple blocks up the hill from downtown SLC

I'm a big fan of sunsets. This is just north of Salt Lake City looking west over the valley.

From the same spot as the pic above, zoomed in on downtown Salt Lake City

One nice thing about a business trip is being able to eat for free. This is at the

Gateway Mall in downtown Salt Lake City

This is Carter last night at bedtime

New pics coming soon!

At the park today

The Wonderful Coeur d' Alene!!

Carter: "Dad, buy some bananas"

Me: "No, you buy some bananas!"

Carter: "I can't buy bananas, I'm too little!"

There is never a dull moment with these kids! I love it!!!!

Happy Halloween!

It was another successful Halloween tonight. This year has been the best in many ways. Every other year Alexis has been terrified of all the Halloween decorations and Carter was too young to really understand what was going on. This year, Alexis enjoyed all the decorations and Carter enjoyed it almost as much. Its priceless to see their joy and excitement in such simple things. Just about everyday this week, Carter kept asking me if it was Halloween and if he could wear his costume. He was thrilled to be a transformer. Alexis asked me months ago if she could be Tinkerbell this year.

This first pic was a couple nights ago at a Halloween carnival that their daycare put on. Here are the kids playing a modified version of musical chairs. Carter actually won the first round and got a cupcake that he scarfed down. Each of the rooms had a different activity. There was a big turnout and it was a lot of fun.

Here is another of Carter at their Halloween carnival just sitting and eating candy

Carter, the Transformer

Alexis as Tinkerbell

Thanks Mike and Kaye for the Halloween package! The kids loved it! They can't get enough of that card. When Alexis first saw it with the music playing she laughed and said, "Silly skeleton!" It was classic.

Trip to Provo last weekend

Last weekend we made a quick trip up to Provo. We left Friday after I got off work and came home Sunday morning. ESPN's College Gameday came to Provo for the first time to highlight the game between BYU and TCU. Saturday morning, Mike Ratelle and I got up at 5:30am and went down to where they were set up to air the show. We waited in line for over an hour and then we were got in pretty close to everything. The show went from 8am-10am. It was a lot of fun.

As for the BYU game, it was very sad. It was fun going though. I sat next to one of the guys I work with and another that I used to work with just a few months ago. It was a fun trip and it was good to spend time with friends.

For all you Boise State fans :)
