Chris's turn to update the blog...

It has been a while since we added stuff to our blog. Alot has happened in the last few weeks. Caelee is working hard in young womens with her camps and activities. She has to take her girls to Heber next week for girls camp, I am glad that it is her and not me. I am not sure how she does all that she does with work and young womens oh yeah and her family. She is going all the time!

Abbi and Whitney started school today and what fun that is. Our little Abbi has been so nervous to go back and last night she did all that she could to not have to go today. 2nd grade is so hard she says and she is not ready for it yet. She was sure that she was sick enough last night that school was not an option today. Caelee and I were just laugh and we are not sure where she comes up with some of the stuff that she says. Whit on the other hand does not care either way if she goes or stays home. She reminds me of Caelee in that she is so laid back and easy going.

I took my all stars to the state championships last weekend. We had lots of fun and oh by the way won state in 12 and under. The team worked so hard to get there and kept pulling out the wins.

I will try to get the real blogger to add more posts asap. I just saw that we had not added for a while and we owe it to all of our fans to keep on bloggin.

I got tagged (thanks Greg)

I have been tagged thanks to my good friend Greg. Thanks buddy I really appreciate it. Just to let everyone know I am not a blogger and do not claim to be good at this. So here is the tag answers and I hope that everyone learns just a little more about me.

3 joys:

1. my greatest joy in my life is my children and my wife and the funny stuff that they do. They never stop amazing me.
2. I love the outdoors. camping, fishing, hunting and boating.
3. I enjoy golf. I wanted to put this under obsesion but I have to many so here it is.

3 Fears:

1. My greatest fear is not being successful as a father. I hope that I can teach them all that I know, which will take up 5 minutes of their time.
2. A recession and all that come with it. I worry that we will not be ready for it..
3. Natural dissaster like a earthquake flood etc. I would like to be more ready with food storage and generators and thing like that. I loose sleep over this seriously!

3 Goals:

1. Own my own buisness and be successful doing that. I have several ideas that I have been working on and would like to make those a reallity.
2.Getting more involved in our ward and being more active. I have several good peaple around me that help motivate me I just need to pull my head out and go!
3. I need to lose a LOT of weight. I was going to put this anyway but when I saw Gregs tag I thought that it was a good goal. So I to would like to loose 25 lbs. by oct 31.

3 Obsessions:

1. I am currently into softball heavy. I coach fastpitch and play slowpitch and would play as much as I could.
2. xbox 360 and first person shooter games like call of duty and rainbow six. Caelee says that I am on it to much. But if I am not on the xbox I am at softball so pick your poison I say!
3. My last one is the GREENBAY PACKERS! I have a collection of stuff and have marked just about anything that I can with stickers and decals. Caelee says that when you can Identify someones vehicle by paraphenelia that is OBSESSED!


I have to tag three people. I would like everyone to know that I do not ever do this and would not so this if I where not forced. So I would like to follow Gregs Idea and do only men so wives do not do this for them.
