MEET MY SISTER AND HER FAMILY

THIS IS MY SISTER AND HER FAMILY. THEY CAME TO VISIT US THIS WEEKEND AND WE HAD A WONDERFUL VISIT WITH THEM. IT IS ALLWAYS GOOD WHEN WE GET TO VISIT WITH THEM.

UPDATE ON THE DECK

IT IS ALMOST COMPLETE. JUST A LITTLE MORE PAINTING AND DAD IS BUILDING THE STEPS FOR IT TODAY. MY SISTER CAME UP TO VISIT WITH HER FAMILY AND WE SPENT MOST OF THE DAY OUT ON THE DECK YESTERDAY. IT WAS REALLY NICE.

THE BRAT CHILD SLEEPS

HERE ARE A COUPLE OF NEW PICS OF AMY LEE WHEN SHE IS ON HER BEST BEHAVOIR (WHEN SHE IS SLEEPING) LOL. SHE REALLY IS MISCHEVIOUS SOMETIMES BUT AGAIN I WOULD NOT TRADE HER FOR THE WORLD. SHE FINDS THE STRANGEST PLACES TO SLEEP. EVRY TIME I THINK I HAVE GOT HER FIGURED OUT IT TAKES ME ANOTHER HOUR AND A HALF TO FIND HER AGAIN. THE LAST TIME I HAD TO LOOK FOR HER SHE HAD FIGURED OUT HOW TO OPEN THE DRAWER IN THE PEDESTALS UNDERNEATH MY BED AND NOW SHE SLEEPS IN MY SOCK DRAWER. THEY ARE VERY SMART ANIMALS.

IT WAS A GOLDEN DAY

YE HAW I FINALLY GOT TO GO FISHING AFTER 2 MONTHS. I HAD A GREAT DAY A GOLDEN DAY. MY TALLY FOR THE YEAR SO FAR IS 20 GOLDEN TROUT AND 16 OF THEM I CAUGHT TODAY. THE BAD NEWS IS I COULD ONLY BRING SIX OF THEM HOME. THAT IS THE LIMIT HERE IN IDAHO. SORRY THAT YOU COULD NOT BE HERE UNCLE BUTCH BUT THERE WILL BE OTHER TIMES. IT STARTED OUT REALLY SLOW WAS AT THE LAKE A 6 AM. I DID NOT EVEN GET A BITE UNTIL 10 AM. THEN THE FISHING GODS SMILED DOWN ON ME AND LOW AND BEHOLD THE IDAHO FISH AND GAME SHOWS UP AND DUMPS 1200 FISH IN THE LAKE. BY NOON I WAS CATCHING THEM AS FAST AS I COULD CAST MOST OF THE TIME.HERE ARE A COUPLE OF PIS TO SHARE WITH YOU ALL. MY UNCLE BUTCH IS GOING TO BE SO JEALOUS. I HAD TO PUT MY SIZE 10 1/2 FOOT IN THERE TO SCALE SO YOU CAN IMAGINE HOW BIG A COUPLE OF THOSE FISH ARE. YIPEE IT WAS A GOLDEN DAY TODAY.

FINALLY

FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT DON'T KNOW ME I AM A TATTOO ENTHUSIAST. I HAVE ALOT OF THEM. I ALSO AM A FANS OF VAMPIRES. I FIND THEM FASCINATING. DON'T ASK ME WHY I HAVE ALLWAYS LIKED THEM. I WENT AND GOT VAMPIRE BITE MARKS TATTOOED ON MY NECK AND WAS NOT HAPPY WITH THEM SO I WENT BACK TO HAVE THEM REDONE AND STILL WAS NOT HAPPY. FINALLY I FOUND SOMEONE TO DO THEM RIGHT AND HERE THEY ARE. THEY WILL LOOK EVEN BETTER AFTER THEY HEAL.

I LOVE A PARADE

THIS WEEKEND WAS WESTERN DAYS HERE IN TWIN FALLS AND THEY HAVE A BIG PARADE AND LOT OF STUFF TO DO. I SPENT WAY TO MUCH MONEY THIS WEEKEND AT THE VENDORS BOOTHS. I AM A BAD BOY.HERE ARE A COUPLE OF PICS. AND WHAT PARADE WOULD BE COMPLETE WITHOUT SMOKEY THE BEAR. LIKE I SAID IN MY LAST POST I HAD A WONDERFUL WEEKEND AND JUST WANTED TO SHARE IT WITH YOU ALL.

IT'S SHAKE AND BAKE AND I HELPED

SOME OF YOU ARE NOT OLD ENOUGH TO REMEMBER THAT COMERCIAL. I SPENT THE WEEKEND HELPING MY MOM AND DAD PUT UP THEIR ROOF OVER THE PATIO THAT MY UNCLE BUTCH AND DAD BUILT LAST SUMMER. I HAD A VERY GOOD WEEKEND WITH MY FAMILY. I ALSO PAINTED MY AUNT KAYE AND UNCLE ARLANDS SHED FOR THEM.HERE ARE A COUPLE OF PICS OF THE ROOF. IT WAS ALOT OF FUN.

THE US HAS BEEN CHEATED

AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED THE US HAS BEEN CHEATED. WHY BECAUSE MELLINDA DOLITTLE DID NOT MAKE IT INTO THE FINAL SHOW ON AMERICAN IDOL. SHE IS BY FAR THE BEST SINGER THEY HAVE HAD THIS YEAR. JUST LIKE LAST YEAR WHEN CHRIS DAUGHTRY GOT VOTED OFF. BUT LOOK AT HIS CAREER TODAY. WAY BETTER THAN TAYLOR HICKS. ANYWAY JUST HAD TO VOICE MY OPINION.

IT IS TIME FOR YOU TO MEET MY DAD

THIS IS MY DAD . HE IS NOT MY BIOLOGICAL FATHER BUT I CALL HIM DAD BECAUSE HE IS THE ONLY DAD I HAVE REALLY KNOWN. HE HAS TREATED ME MORE LIKE A SON THAN MY REAL DAD. HE HAS ALLWAYS BEEN THERE FOR ME WEATHER IT WAS TO KICK MY BUTT OR GIVEN ME PRAISE AND WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT WHEN WARRANTED. FOR THAT I LOVE HIM AS IF HE WERE MY REAL FATHER. I LOVE YOU DAD.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY UNCLE BUTCH

I AM SORRY I HAVE NOT HAD A CHANCE TO POST THIS UNTIL NOW. I HAVE BEEN VERY BUSY AT WORK. IT I SURE NICE TO BE BACK TO WORK FULL TIME. ANYWAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY UNCLE BUTCH. HIS BIRTHDAY WAS ON MAY 17TH. I DID CALL AND LEFT HIM A HAPPY BIRTHDAY SONG ON HIS ANSWERING MACHINE. NOBODY SINGS HAPPY BIRTHDAY LIKE MY AUNT KERRY THOUGH. SHE ENTERTAINED US WITH IT ON THERE VISIT AT CHRISTMAS TIME. IT WAS QUITE UNIQUE AND HER GUITAR PLAYING WAS JUST AS ENTERTAINING. SHE HAS IMPROVED ALOT.

IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THEM YET

I HIGHLY RECCOMEND WATCHING THE MOVIES WORLD TRADE CENTER AND FLIGHT 93 IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THEM YET. THEY ARE VERY GOOD MOVIES AND VERY HEART WRENCHING. SO IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THEM THEY ARE A MUST.

FIRST FULL DAY BACK TO WORK

TODAY WAS MY FIRST FULL DAY BACK TO WORK SINCE MY ACCIDENT LAST WEEKEND. IT FELT GOOD TO WORK A FULL DAY. THINGS ARE GOING TO BE ROUGH THIS NEXT WEEK BUT ANYONE THAT KNOWS ME KNOWS THAT I AM A SURVIVOR AND I WILL MAKE IT THROUGH. I HAVE MADE IT THROUGH WORSE THAN THIS. BUT I AM GLAD TO BE BACK TO WORK. I STILL HAVE SOME HEALING TO DO AND HAVE TO WEAR THE CAST FOR ATLEAST ANOTHER WEEK BUT I FEEL ALOT BETTER NOW.

MOTHERS DAY

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ALL OF YOU MOMS OUT THERE. I SPENT THE DAY WITH MY FAMILY TODAYHAD A WONDERFUL DAY AND A GREAT VISIT WITH EVERYONE. THERE WAS ON LY ONE THING MISSING FROM THE PICTURE AND THAT WAS MY AUNT KERRY AND UNCLE BUTCH. THEY WERE HAVING THERE OWN CELEBRATION THOUGH IN RENO NEVADA. HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO MY MOM, MY AUNT CARRIE, MY AUNT KAYE, MY GRANDMA, DEE DEE MY COUSIN, AND MY SISTER KATHY, AND THE REST OF THE MOMS IN MY FAMILY.

TIME

TIME IS SOMETHING I THINK WE ALL TAKE FOR GRANTED. I HAVE SPENT ALOT OF TIME DOING THINGS THAT WERE NOT ALL TOGETHER GOOD FOR ME. I HAVE DONE THINGS IN MY PAST THAT I AM NOT VERY PROUD OF. BUT I LOOK AT IT THIS WAY IT IS THINGS THAT HAVE HAPPENED IN MY LIFE THAT MAKE ME WHO I AM TODAY.
WE LOSE TIME WHEN WE DON'T GET TO KNOW THE PEOPLE IN OUR LIVES THAT MEAN THE MOST TO US.
I HAVE LEARNED ALOT THESE PAST FEW YEARS. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I HAVE LEARNED IS YOU CAN NOT TAKE TIME FOR GRANTED. ONCE IT IS GONE YOU CAN'T GET IT BACK. IF YOU DON'T TAKE THE TIME TO GET TO KNOW THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU THEN YOU HAVE LOST.
I HAVE GOTTEN TO KNOW SOME VERY SPECIAL PEOPLE AND SOME REALLY GOOD FRIENDS. THEY HAVE COME INTO MY LIFE AND I AM VERY THANKFUL THAT I HAVE BEEN GIVEN THIS CHANCE TO HAVE THAT TIME TO GET TO KNOW THEM.
SO IF YOU FIND YOURSELF THINKING THAT YOU DON'T HAVE THE TIME FOR SOMEONE THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU COULD BE MISSING IF YOU DON'T TAKE A LITTLE EXTRA TIME OUT OF YOUR BUSY LIFE TO LET THAT PERSON INTO YOUR LIFE.
TIME IS A PRECIUOS GIFT AND I INTEND TO USE IT

MY DAUGHTER

I WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE YOU TO MY DAUGHTER SENICA. SHE IS THE LOVE OF MY LIFE . WE HAVE ONLY GOTTEN TO KNOW EACH OTHER IN THE LAST FEW YEARS AND I AM SO GLAD THAT WE HAVE GOTTEN REUNITED. THIS IS THE ONE OF THE THINGS IN MY LIFE THAT I AM VERY PROUD OF. SHE IS A VERY BEAUTIFUL WOMAN NOW AND VERY RESPONSIBLE.

SOME PICS OF ME

THESE ARE SOME PICS OF ME ONE OF THEM IS ME AND MY DAUGHTER DOWN IN THE SNAKE RIVER CANYON ONE IS OF ME WITH A COUPLE OF THE GOLDEN TROUT I CAUGHT LAST YEAR I HOPE YOU LIKE THEM.

MORE PICS

THIS IS MY AUNT KERRY AND MY UNCLE BUTCH ON THERE LAST VISIT HERE MY UNCLE BUTCH FINALLY CAUGHT A GOLDEN TROUT AND THAT MADE HIM HAPPY. MY AUNT KERRY LOVES IT UP HERE AND THEY ARE GOING TO MOVE HERE ONE OF THESE DAYS. I WISHED IT WERE TOMMORROW BECAUSE THEY ARE VERY SPECIAL TO ME AND I LOVE THEM VERY MUCH. IF YOU EVER HAD THE CHANCE TO MEET THEM YOU WOULD BE BLESSED FOR THEY ARE TRUELY WONDERFUL PEOPLE. THEY HAVE BEEN MARRIED FOR OVE 30 YEARS. THAT IS RARE IN THIS TIME OF LIFE. I SO LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING THEM WHEN THEY COME UP TO VISIT. ONE DAY IT WILL BE FOR GOOD. YEEE HAWW
