Matt's school visit

Today after work we all went to Matthew's school to visit his new teacher and class. One of the funniest happenings of the visit was when Matthew walked into his old classroom and walked up to his old teacher saying, "Surprise, Surprise!" He waved his hands in the air as he did it. I think Matthew has really missed going to school, learning from his teachers, and playing with his friends. He also saw his speech therapist and pointed at her saying, "Yes!" He's such a great boy.

Taylor is very excited for her new school and class. She likes to tell everyone her new school is where the smart kids go. I think she'll like it and she'll like the new challenges.

Evey says a cute thing that I'll have to record. When we read our scriptures at night she's so excited to get her own copy of the Book of Mormon. I can't really write how she says it but the way she says "scriptures" is just the best way it's ever been said by any person.

Rexburbia - 007 - Credit Union

Mom joined me for this weeks podcast. It was top-notch stuff because she brought a great topic right in the beginning.

-Mom mentions they went to the Beehive Federal Credit Union dinner, in Rexburg Idaho.
-Dallan is thrilled. He asks if they cooked chicken but mom sadly tells they have turned to hot dogs and hamburgers.
-An old band played old songs. They were from Pocatello (home of the mini-dome).
-Mom says the babies in the crowd were enjoying the music so much they began to dance.
-My nephew was one of the groovers.
-Dilly bars were a hit.
-Dallan feels slighted because he wasn't invited by the credit union.
-The invitation came through email, which mom threw in the trash.
-Dallan reminisces about wonderful chicken from the past.
-Mom didn't like to wait in the long lines so she decides they'll bring their own food next year.
-Dallan says that next year mom will think the music is too loud so she'll bring her own music at that point.
-People my age showed up and made it into a high school reunion.
-Lori doesn't want to go to her upcoming reunion. Dallan says she should.
-Dallan hasn't made it to any of his, but pledges to go next year. Mom says I should take my little audio.
-Mom advises not driving to the credit union dinner. They all rode their bikes to the park.
-The spray park has had some issues. Germs shooting everywhere so the kid level was small. Dallan thinks they recycle the water and don't shock it enough to overcome the urine.
-The city of Rexburg was suprised by how many kids used it and so they didn't take enough care of it.
-Dallan talks of his new picture on the podcast website (very swanky).
-Dallan talks of making the Simpson pictures of himself and Jon.
-Dallan claims to be number one when you search for "Rexburg Podcast." (Currently this is not true because Dallan slowed down on his posting and lost his position.)
-Mom's canning beans and talks of being an assistant wolf leader.
-Mom has a yellow scout shirt from Deseret Industries but she doesn't think it passes.
-Mom has a hunch she'll be doing something different for a calling.
-Mom starts her job at school at the end of August.
-Dallan asks about the new Rexburg high school. Mom says it's still in the planning stages.
-They talk about the dome building on the edge of town. Dallan thinks it's an odd place. Right now they rent equipment.
-Mom calls it a big Styrofoam dome that welcomes everyone to Rexburg. It's a very big eyesore.
-The Rexburg Temple is going fine.
-The End

Utah County Fair - 2007

We went to the Utah County Fair. Had a great time looking around, smelling animals, hanging with my mom and sister, listening to music, and watching fireworks. Good time. It's a quick listen so go ahead.

Thought I would update this post with a picture. Maybe the best Carcass picture you've ever seen.

Slow

Sorry that it's taken so long for me to add anything new. I have two Rexburbia's that I just need to edit, and one of us at the Utah County Fair that's practically in the bag. I'll try to have them up Tuesday.
