I am a villain and a very bad man! My oldest, Scott, was so excited to have found a female canary for only $25 dollars on-line the other day. He had called the guy and arranged for me to stop by and buy the bird. I thought I was all prepared by taking an older, [...]
Just when you thought nothing else could happen in Eagle Mountain, along comes the plague of foot and mouth! Well – that is my foot and Kristy’s mouth! What a week of fun it’s been! Sunday night I landed on my ankle while navigating over a gymnastics mat in the basement! and Kristy had to [...]

They had just asked their dad today a question about some extended family members they were concerned about. Scott wanted to know if they would get to be in the celestial kingdom or not?

I think I can safely say that I’ve just experienced my worst commute! It all started at 3:30 pm on Wednesday, February 13th 2008. We were told we could leave early due to the heavy snow. Everybody left expect me! I had the idea to wait and let the traffic calm down before I would [...]

I wasn’t thinking too much about today being veteran’s day except that the mail wasn’t delivered and that Ian had the day off (being a government employee). Until I picked up Scott from school. He came out looking sad as if he had been crying a little. He got in the car and I immediately [...]

Summer always seems to bring out those orange cones together with the orange signs of delays. Just what we need to help us enjoy the summer heat on our road ways – Yes – It’s construction time again. But construction is not only limited to our highways – but also to our basement! I have [...]
From the Bible we read that even a fallen sparrow is loved, yet we want our lawns to look the best, and who really cares if a few birds get in the way!! We had the unfortunate sadness of cleaning up after 3 of our neigbors decided to "Tru-Green" their lawn. They tell you to [...]
