Nebraska


Here's some pictures from our voyage to the hot spot of Nebraska, McCook. Michael's older brother, Christian and his family live there where Christian is an agriculture consultant. We got a grand tour of McCook (very cute little town, a lot like Wyoming towns I thought), went to the Rocket Inn, had delicious food prepared by Jill (Christian's wife) hung out, played card games, and just had a good time.

Happy 25th Birthday Shayla!! (4.10.83)



I just have to say a few things about this wonderful person whose 25th birthday we celebrate today. Shay and I didn’t become friends until high school, and lets just say, from then on, good times were had by all. Between Kade and his blood red hot dogs and regular excursions to China Town, Shayla made my life a little sweeter every day.
We decided to be roomies at BYU-I, where many more good times were “had by all” but lets just say she put up with me and has remained my friend throughout all my ridiculousness and that in and of itself is something.
25 cool things/fun memories about Shay on her 25th bday

1. Ridiculously smart (for real, she is)
2. Really good at any kind of game, you name it, she'll kick your trash (I’ve never beat her at ANYTHING)
3. Good vball player
4. Great mom
5. Great wife
6. Great friend
7. Great sister
8. Great aunt
9. Patient
10. Loving
11. Gentle
12. Great sense of humor
13. Good listener
14. Loves Tim McGraw
15. Gorgeous voice
Remember…
16. Eating cold hot chocolate at homecoming jnr year?
17. Climbing to castle rock (and the blood red hot dogs, of course)?
18. Foreign exchange students during vball during practice (remember the ones that were really bad??) and Shannon goofing off at every vball practice?

Confession


...So I'm sitting here in my living room watching kids cruise around on their scooters outside and all I want to do is go grab one and ride around myself. Does anyone besides me ever get urges to do "kid" things again?? Like swing, jump on tramps again, ride bikes reeeeally really fast??
