Picking Winners

Logan and I were in the car today when I hear him in the back seat say "Daddy Look" I was driving so we waited until the next stop light and look back to see Logan sitting there with a giant buger on his finger. As soon as I say "gross" he follows that up with " Daddy look, I picked a Winner!!!" This is hilarious because every time I catch him picking his nose I always ask him if he "picked a winner". I always thought that he never paid any attention, guess I was wrong. Every day he finds a way to crack me up.  Love that kid!!  

Summer Fun

It has been a while since I have posted anything.  Here are some pictures of some of the fun things we have been up to this summer.  We spent a day at Lagoon with Emily's work which was really hot and sunny, Logan had a blast as witnessed by the pictures.  Last weekend we went down to St George, the weather was perfect, low to mid 90's in August in St George is perfect. We played in the pool, went up to Snow Canyon, and on the way home we went up through Cedar Breaks which was actually kind of chilly but very beautiful. 

My Macbook.

Ok so I finally started to play around with the different features on my Macbook. Here is my first little video, it is of Logan of course but you can't help but laugh at the kid.

Torrey Pines June 2009

We flew in on Friday morning and played the North Course. Played the South Course on Saturday, and played Balboa Park Golf Course on Sunday, and flew out Sunday evening. That was the whole trip except for a few good restaurants (Fidel's in Del Mar was some of the best Mexican food I have ever had.)  

Where the wild things are!!

When Logan, Emily and I went to see Monsters vs Aliens (great movie) a couple of weeks ago it was to my great surprise to see this trailer.  We saw it again last night when we went to see Earth. (another good show)

Here is the link,

I have never been so excited to see a movie in my entire life!! It sounds incredibly stupid but every time I see the trailer, I get a little tiery eyed. I have a ton of memories wrapped around this book and every time Logan and I read it (it is our favorite book to read before bed) I can't help but think of 2 very important people to me, my Mom and Kirsten. We won't go into the mushy details behind why this book reminds me of my Mom and Kirsten, just want you to know that I love you Kirsten.  Cant wait for October 16th.

Mexican Riviera April 2009

MEXICAN RIVIERA:

Emily and I went on a 7 day cruise down the Mexican Riviera the 2nd week of April.  The weather was perfect (85 degrees and Sunny all week). The weather was even better because we heard that the UC (Utah County for those of you who don't know the acronyms) got 10 inches of snow while we were getting perfect suntans.  Hope you enjoy the pictures, BTW Jesse and Kirsten the guy in the speedo is just for you. HaHa. These 2 guys were the first people we saw when we went to the pool, we called them the speedo twins the rest of the trip.   

PUERTA VALLARTA:

Puerta Vallarta was our first stop, and was it nice to get off the boat after 2 1/2 days.  We Walked along the ocean front and looked at these incredible sand sculptures, there were bunch of them, the ones I posted pictures of were Moses and the Last Supper. We chilled on the beach for a while and then we ate lunch at this little restaurant called Si Senor. It was the best Mexican food that we have ever had.  Emily had carnitas and I had a mexican steak, they had the freshest and best guacamole ever. We finished up lunch with cocunut ice cream, it was delicious.  If you are ever in Puerta Vallarta you must go there!  We also visited the local catholic church, I love to go look at the old churches and the different types of architecture.   

 

MAZATLAN: 

You will notice that there are not many pictures of Mazatlan due to the fact that this was our least favorite stop.  The city was dirty and the people not very friendly.  We went to a beach that was dirty and full of other tourists, which also meant there were a ton of the vendors trying to sell you crap you don't want.  

CABO SAN LUCAS:

Cabo San Lucas was our last stop. We got off the boat and got a water taxi which is a rickety old boat to take us out to lovers beach. This was the best beach( there were no vendors trying to sell you a bunch of crap.), and the driver of the water taxi took us out to see the arch, sea lions, sting ray, lots of different fish, and the window to the pacific before dropping us off at the beach. On the morning when we were coming into Cabo we woke up to see the sunrise  

 

Football and Dogs.

I had Logan this weekend and most of last week due to time off work. Logan and I like the rest of the world have been so completely overwhelmed by the amount of football on TV that most days we didn't even get out of our pajamas. After we had breakfst this morning I was up working on the computer and came down to find that Logan had removed his pants and was using a nightlight as a tee to kickoff his ball. (I am well aware that these are the types of things that a parent can't stop laughing about, while everyone else doesn't get it. Thought I would share it anyway, because I did happen to catch some of the action on film.) Also Logan loves to watch the movie "Sandlot", and even though he knows the name of the movie, and is aware of the difference between football & baseball he always asks to watch Football and Dogs. Kid is freaking hilarious he never ceases to make me laugh with his comments. Peace out.
