Congratulaitons Ryan and Becky!!




So, Michaels bff from HS lives in Arizona with his wife and they just had a baby boy. Peyton. So cute. Anyway, here is a pic of the blanket we (and by we I mean I) made for the little guy. Nothing too fancy but it'll do. Michael was impressed by how quickly it was put together. And if Ryan and Becky check our blog, sorry to ruin the surprise, you'll get it in the mail in three-five business days.

My 'vanna' . . . to bad whatever was on tv was more important than possibly posing for a picture.

A.I.

This post is for all you Utahns out there. I want to know if any of you went to Murray/The Gateway last week in support of "our" American Idol? I must say it was kindof fun to watch them talk about places I'd been- the gateway, energy solutions arena, murray HS. Who knows, maybe David's family lives next to Grandma and Grandpa Allsop, after all Ken Jenings did. (The guy who won like booko bucks on jeopordy.) Maybe there's something in the water.

I still can't decide which David should win. . . . I like them both. And I'll probably end up purchasing each of thier first albums. surprise surprise.

summary

So, its been a while. I'll sum up: We went on a camp out a couple weeks ago and dared a friend to eat a marshmellow wrapped in bacon, afterall, bacon makes everything more delicious. I myself failed to taste this treat but apparently it was "interesting". We went to a state park that's pretty close to where we live and had an excellent time. They have a lot of camp sites/picnic areas and a river. We went on a little hike and played in the water. Definately a place to be re-visited.




My friend Paige. yay.





Apparently "fiesta" in Texas is a big deal. It's basically a week-long party. They have like 6 parades (most of which are telavised and in the middle of the day) A big carnival with lots of music, dancing, and consuming of alcoholic beverages. We went to be part of the crowd one night and were basically told if we were to stay past 7 we'd be the only white people there. Needless to say, we didn't really fit in. We did get some quality 'people-watching' time in. The lady was a dancing FOOL, and yes, this spurs fans hat was made from aluminum foil.

Last but certainly not least our ward had planned a little camping trip to padre island/corpus cristi. We decided to meet them on saturday for a day at the beach. I was really surprised at the tempurature of the water. It was quite pleasant. That's the gulf for you. We had a nice relaxing day. Telling you we got fried is an understatement. My skin is now a lovely shade of BRIGHT RED. The ocean is fun and all but I'd rather be at the lake. Salt water and me do NOT get along. :)

Happy Birthday Sis

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MELISSA!!!
This is a special post wishing my sister a very happy birthday, and hopefully it will make someone smile or laugh half as hard as I did.
If we weren't best friends since birth you couldn't tell by how many times we were photographed together. This is one of my favorites! Now, if this doesn't make you laugh, you are hopeless and probably not my friend. And if any one of you doesn't have a similar aweful 'paid-for-photo' (as Ellen Degeneris would call it) then to bad that you can't laugh at moments like this later.

Oh, and sorry for that time I ran you over.

Well Melis we've got A LOT of crazy memories together! I love you so much, and I am very glad you were born :)
