I'm trying to think of something cute and clever to type with these pictures. But I guess Bryar is the cute and clever one. Just another hot day in Alabama. I guess you could call it the redneck swimming pool.

the scariest time of my life.

i'm now in cicero which is in the city. this is the place where al capone ran his business out of and there is crime and crazy stuff everywhere. there is a section of my area which is a blue light district. which means it has blue lights on top of every stoplight flashing to warn you not to be out at night. it's a totally ghetto area, and the only white people i have ever seen there are the cops. of course that area is where we do almost all of our work. so if you stop getting posts from me, i may be dead. but thats ok because its practically a free trip to heaven! i have a tongan companion though so i get a little "street credit" for that, he can pass as black. anyway i love you all and hope to survive to post next week.

hello everyone. We too are about as exciting as Jeff. Joe is going to work and the rest of the time he come home to do some mudding in his workshop. Marshall helped start the sheetrock and we finished it so now the fun mudding starts. Joe loves it!! So hopefully that will be done soon and we can get his tools out there so he really will actually like to work out there. Love you all

Education Week Fantastic

Education Week was again terrific.  I learned so many things.  The church is not only absolutely true, but it is exciting.  The scriptures are very revealing if we just read and study them.  The last days are here, but they can be the most exciting and spiritual days of our lives.  Of course, we need to be on the right path and facing the right direction.  God loves us and He will help us through it all.  That's why He keeps trying to teach us.  May we learn and know that He loves us is my hope and prayer for all of us.  Together forever!!!! Keep to the CORRECT and TRUE source!!!

For Weston

Well, since I really have nothing new to say, yet Weston reads this, I will post something for him. We are still working away on our house, my deadline is October 1st. My schedule is to get up at 6:00, read scriptures... go to work at 6:30, work until 3:00, go home and work until 9:30, shower and go to bed. I do that every day, so not much changing. However, the house is on schedule, and that is the important thing. Kristen and everyone is doing fine. That's about it. Later all

watch the second video first

not from kati, from doug

shall we not go on in so great a cause?

the blog does in fact need posts but i'll say no more about it. i'm getting my first baptism saturday! and i'm getting transferred to cicero which is in the city. my new companion will be molisikupu, a tongan as you probably guessed. everything is looking good out here and hopefully everything is going well there.
ps bruce willis is pretty strong evidence, after all, he did make die hard, i don't think anything else need be said.

For those of you who like Bruce Willis:

Just want you to know that Bruce Willis supports 9/11 truth.

That's all.

Lazy

I will admit it, I am just too lazy. I sit around doing nothing all day, just relaxing in the summer sun, which is why I no longer post. Anyone is free to come up for a "vacation" and join me anytime!

busy

so busy that all I can think to say is that I'm busy.
10-year reunion
new AP class to prepare
two-a-days

folder with completed work examples for certification
stakeholder's report for american fork city

SO I'M NOT WORRIED ABOUT THE BLOG. SORRY.

Okay, okay

I just thought I would share with the family some of my up and coming Christmas cards! (Please, do not feel obligated to use any of my designs or whatever - I do it mainly for fun) I have had some requests and I am working on a whole slew so people can pick and choose whatever they want. And, if you are especially fond of anything in particular - I love to do requests!

hey

fam? the lack of activity on the blog greatly saddens me. i don't think you guys realize that i'm a missionary. aka i look forward all week to the smallest things, such as posts by the fam. get it together people! i need entertainment, and i've been hard pressed to find it at this site of late. if nothing else play a game of mafia via the blog or something. ok thats a ridiculous idea but i'm sure with the combined talents of our family, we can come up with something. anyway i'm happy and doing well except for my shoulder(i tore a ligament and almost had to come home) i love you all and will see you next week.

Are our lives really that boring that we don't have anything to say for a week and a half. Come on guys we are slacking. If nothing else has anyone found some land that we can all move to.
