screw winter

yep. guess you can tell what mood I am in. I was doing my usual 5 mile run this morning. And I passed the most hilarious snow man. Needless to say it pretty much sums up EXACTALLY how I feel about winter. Wanting it to be over is sort of an understatment. At this point I am thinking about holding the weather man hostage. because we all know that he really controlls the weather. dont you just see that little sniveling snow man and laugh? I wish frosty was real so i could punch him in his stupid carrott nose. oh by the way, i dont really run five miles... i run six. ok i just cant post the lie. i cut and pasted this picture. How funny would that be though if you saw this?

AND THE OSCAR GOES TO:

Raegan for throwing up on my face. This is NOT a lie. we were watching the Oscars, by the way best dressed (Natalie Portman) worst dressed (Tilda Swintin isnt it always?) and I was making funny noises and making Raegan laugh when suddenly. she barfed on my face. I was stuck between laughing and crying. I had to keep my mouth clamped shut so i wouldnt taste it. it went down my shirt between my boobs and everything. I dont have a picture, sorry to disapoint. I didnt really think of grabbing my camera with chunks sliding down my face and chest. Good thing shes so cute or she'd be a goner.

exotic utah

So, we took a little family vacay this weekend to Utah. Sounds boring you say? well, good thing i can't punch you through my blog because it wasn't. We stayed with Rich's sister Kristen and her husband Scott. It was such a great kid friendly house. It came with a built in crib and toys which i suspect that Lane might have stolen as we now have a Gordon, and a Lady Train when I know we didnt before. We started out going to the Dinosaur museum at Thanksgiving Point. the only problem is all the pictures are on my cell phone. Could someone please tell me how to get thoes on my computer? It was a blast none the less. Lane was a little scared of the Dinosaurs Rich says hes a "baby mommas boy." My dad says hes a tumor growing off the side of my body. I say he's an affectionately attached three year old.

Rich then suggested Chucky Cheese which I thought was for the kids but... rich wouldnt stop playing this hunting game. he even got enough tickets to buy one of thoes plastic nail rings. he claims its for the kids except he keeps wearing it.

This one is of Raegan eating her first Pizza. at my house we eat only organic fruits and vegtables but I though why not let her splurge once in a while? (is the sarcasim coming through?, im afraid someone out there is going to think im being serious.)

The boys had a blast play and Lane had a blast hitting other kids.

Some more pics of Raegan being her cute self. she learned how to say CHeese this week because I took so many pictures.

I also went and had lunch with My friends Becky and Mary at the Olive Garden it was so great. I didnt have any kids or anything! why didnt we get a picture guys? It was so good catching up. We also had dinner with Rich's old mission companion Mike and his wife Lindsay. It was so good to see them and so apparent why we like them so much. once again, didnt get a picture so sorry. although I think Mike would appriciate it. since he just had surgery on his neck and his bandage resembled a maxi pad. (sorry mike it did.)

Then we headed to the Live Aquarium in Sandy it was cool. Here is a cute picture of the boys through a fish tank. There was lots of shopping. I still love Thai pan! it was so great to see everyone that we love. sorry all the pictures are out of order. I am to lazy to organize this blog.

Rigby dictionary

I was recently thinking over all the new words and phrases that I have had to learn since moving to eastern Idaho nine years ago. and I was thinking it might be helpfull to someone who is currently learning the lingo if I posted it. so here goes,



Diggin or Muddin: driving around in the dirt or mud in a truck. what I would have called four bying.



snowmachine: fairly self explanatory. althought I would have called it snowmobile.



Outfit: no ladies this is not your carefully chosen shoes and top combo, its what kind of car or truck you are driving. odd I know...



Dressing: this does not mean salad dressing, I was embarrased when my mother-in-law continually asked me to pass the dressing and i kept asking "ranch or blue cheese?" she meant stuffing.



up to, over to: this one is more subtle but still there. instead of saying, "shes from Rexburg." locals say "shes from up to Rexburg." or "shes from over to Rexburg." reguardless of if you are south or north or east or west. it doesnt seem to have anything to do with actual direction.



dang cute: this little ditty I have found myself saying alot. you cant just say something is cute, or beautiful or flattering. it has to be DANG cute. and that pertains to anything from shoes, to hair, to clothing, to houses, to anything.



to town: this one is strange because I have heard it said meaning Rexburg, or Idaho falls, or even downtown Rigby. Locals will say "He went to town." at first I didnt want to look stupid and assume which town. I usually find ways to carefully, while still looking knowledgeable ask more questions to find out which "town" they mean.



Barrow pit: this is a favorite argument between Rich and I. What I would call the ditch, he calls the barrow pit. meaning the area next to the road. he says their is no water in it so it is not a ditch. he claims its called the barrow pit because they "barrow" dirt from it to build the road. I claim when was the last time you heard your mom say, "You could have been dead in a borrow pit for all I know." yeah just doesnt have the same ring.



sluff or ditch: someone might say, "we slufffed school.." we always said skipped. it seemed that only old people, namely our parents said sluff.

I thought I might share these discoveries with you. feel free to share any of your realizations with me. together we can figure out how to look native.

Super Birthday/Bowl

I had a great 22nd birthday this past week. just wanted to thank everyone for the cards and phone calls. I posted a picture of the beautiful flowers that Rich and the kids sent me. It was so sweet and so unexpected. Also we had a fun little super bowl party with our friends Chris and Cindy. I made this awesome Chocolate peanut butter cheesecake that i was so proud of.

SISTER FOR SALE!!

so I was getting ready for the day one morning and I could hear this muffled crying sound. i thought that Raegan had shut herself in a room. (it happens alot) so i went through all the rooms and no Raegan. I even looked in the garage. finally clay came to the rescue from his seat on the couch and nonchalantly told me, "oh, shes in the cupboard." So I pieced the story together and even though Lane insists that she did it on her own, admitted he put her in the cupboard. she kept taking their train tracks apart so Lane (the brains behind the operation, Clays just not that sinister) and Clay (the brawns, Lane could never lift her chubby butt into that cupboard) decided that they should shut the door. I have no idea how long she was in there but I got a big smile and a hug for getting her out. Maybe it could be a good time out spot? just kidding mom. She'll get them back one day by dating their friends.
