Don't talk back to Darth Vader

Castle Park

Monday after we picked up Ashley from school we went to Castle Park. That's what we call it anyway, I think it's just the West Jordan City Park. It's a fun park. It makes me wish I had something like that to play on when I was a kid. The girls seem to really enjoy it. Olivia gets really excited when you say we're going to Castle Park. Here's some pictures of our time spent there. I didn't really get good ones. I should have taken more of the structure of the Park, because there are a lot of neat things, but I didn't. It was also hard for me to get good ones of the girls because they were constantly in motion, and didn't want to hold still for me. One of Ashley's friends from school happened to be there, so they were playing tag.

Five More Days

Five more days until we find out what we're having. La la la. I can't wait. La la la

Here's Now

This was taken yesterday. There's more of a pooch now. It doesn't look like much more then the other picture. Trust me though it is, I don't fit in most of my clothes.

Pregnant Dallas

Here is a picture of Dallas being pregnant. I took it a couple of weeks ago. She was barely showing. She is a little more poochy now. It's cute.

The genius of Livy

Olivia had her end-of-year testing for kindergarten on Monday, so we went with her. On the wall outside of her classroom they had a little assignment hanging up. Apparently they had some eggs in the classroom that they were trying to hatch. For their assignment they were supposed to write down what they thought was going to hatch out of the eggs. All of the other kids wrote down some sort of animal, mostly chickens. Olivia said ........ cookies. She guessed that cookies were going to hatch out of the eggs. And while that might seem like a silly answer at first, I think it is pretty smart. What would you want to hatch out of eggs? Some stupid animal? Why not cookies? It makes sense to me.

How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?

Problems

So we're finally done painting the brown color. We took the tape off and this is what we got. What the? Did we do something wrong? What's the point of taping if it does this?






This is a picture of our TV. As you can see, it's broken, unless you only want to watch half of the picture. I called a couple of places about getting it fixed. One place wouldn't give any sort of estimate. They wanted us to bring it in and pay them $75 for an estimate. I called another place who wanted $50. He did give me a "ballpark figure" over the phone though -- "anywhere from $100 to $1500". So.......we might not have a TV for a while. I guess if it's towards the $100 area we could get it fixed. Why in the world would we pay $1500 to fix a TV though? I even looked on LG's (the brand) website, and they have a brand new 42 inch (our size) plasma (our type) TV for $1199. So, I could possibly spend more than that to fix a broken TV that's almost 3 years old, or just buy a new one. I'm going to think about that for a while.

$5904.84

$5904.84 -- that's how much the estimate is for fixing my car. That's a lot of damage. Holy jiminy.
