UPDATE ON MY BROTHER MIKE!!!


*THIS JUST IN!!*
My family is picking Mike up today!! Due to some restrictions (not having a ramp in Rock Springs or something) the plane from Mississippi is landing here in Utah, and then they are all taking a bus to Rock Springs, WY to officially be released! I am honored to be Mike's brother, and I support what he has done in Iraq...BUT I COULDN'T BE MORE HAPPY AND RELIEVED TO HAVE HIM HOME, SAFE, ALIVE AND STATESIDE!!!!! THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR ALL THE PRAYERS IN HIS BEHALF!!! I thank you all on behalf of his entire unit who were all kept safe! Did you know that his unit was called the "God Unit?" It was called that because it was the only unit that while sustaining damage, there wasn't ONE SINGLE DEATH to his unit, or whatever other unit he was traveling with. It will be great to finally have him home! Love you guys!!! I'll be sure to give him a big hug from all of you!

Lights, Camera...ACTION!!!!! (4th & final attempt)

This was at 1am at night and I went into the bathroom, and there in the tub was this king-sized, man-killer, mutated arachnid from Hades!! Now I'm not afraid of spiders, but one of these (same size and everything) bit me over my eyebrow back during my '98 Senior year in High School in Afton, WY, and one fell in my hair at work last Saturday morning (29-September-2007, I thought I felt something moving around in my hair and brush my ear) and when it jumped off my head and onto the dining room floor, it totally freaked myself and my two coworkers out!! These creatures are truly what nightmares are made of!!! Now, before you laugh...just picture one of these crawling in YOUR ear!!!

Lights, Camera...ACTION!!!!! (3rd attempt)

Wow, this is truly crazy hair!!! A note concerning video quality, these four videos were all taken with my LG cell phone...and the quality isn't too great, but the convenience is fantastic! I am very rarely near my camcorder when something truly worthy of documentation is unfolding...but I am never without my cell phone! I've had a cell phone since 15-December-2001, and now it's a part of me. If I leave it at home by accident, I'm feeling inadequate and ill-prepared...EVEN IF I DON'T GET ANY CALLS ALL DAY! I know, its a conundrum; I can't even really explain it. I JUST KNOW THAT IF I LEAVE THE HOUSE I HAVE TO HAVE MY PHONE WITH ME!!! I might miss something, and won't be able to be reached! :-)

Lights, Camera...ACTION!!!!! (2nd attempt)

This is the cutest little video of Jaxon in his highchair! He's fallen asleep in the chair before, but this was the first time that I was able to watch it unfold and catch it on camera! Enjoy the jelly-neck-head-bob!!!

Lights, Camera...ACTION!!!!! (first attempt)

Let's see if I can figure out this video thing...Jaxon began trying to walk, and taking small steps back on the 29th of June. I was walking in from work, and Angela and the rest of her family were cheering and clapping! I flipped out my cell phone and began to record. This is what I saw!

Interesting Point from Sally Fields...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImoMGyJjWIk
I was watching YouTube.com, where sometimes you can watch really funny and entertaining material/videos. I came across this video of Sally Fields accepting an award at the Emmy's, where she made a comment which was anti-war, and fox censored it and cut it out. The above link is to a video on YouTube.com where it isn't cut out, and you hear it. She does take the Lord's name in vain saying, "...G**Dam* wars." But it is my opinion that it isn't totally offensive, and I would dare say somewhat accurate! So, you may view it if you wish. I have only added this short sentiment to protect myself from those who have...unaccustomed ears. Enjoy!
