Smarty Hannah Banana


Here is Hannah at her science fair. She did her project on Do crystals form better in warmer climates than cold ones? She did a really great job and Nate and I are very proud of her. Here are some pics.

Dwight Schrute Quotes


"I don';t have a lot of experience with vampires, but I have hunted werewolves. I shot one once, but by the time I got to it, it had turned back into my neighbor';s dog."
"I am faster than 80% of all snakes"
"Why tip someone for a job I'm capable of doing myself? I can deliver food. I can drive a taxi. I can, and do, cut my own hair. I did however, tip my urologist, because I am unable to pulverize my own kidney stones."
"If I could menstruate, I wouldn’t have to deal with idiotic calendars anymore. I’d just be able to count down from my previous cycle. Plus, I’d be more in tune with the moon and the tides."
"In the wild, there is no health care. In the wild, health care is, 'Ow, I hurt my leg. I can't run. A lion eats me. I'm dead.' Well, I'm not dead. I'm the lion. You're dead."
"Through concentration, I can raise and lower my cholesterol at will"
"I was the youngest pilot in Pan Am history. When I was four, the pilot let me ride in the cockpit and fly the plane with him. And I was four, and I was great and I would have landed it, but my dad wanted us to go back to our seats."
"I've trained my major blood vessels to retract into my body on command"

I love The Office. It is the funniest show. And if you can't tell, my fav. is Dwight. If you have never seen an episode, it is never too late. I recommend to start now.

TRAINING

I have never been very keen on exercise. Growing up, I was a cheerleader and in the band. Now when I say cheerleader, it's not the ones that turn flips and all of that crap. I did basic stuff like kicking my leg up and those gosh awful cheers. I maintained my weight until I got prego. In the south when girls get pregnant, they get really fat and they EAT for two. Here in Utah, that rarely is seen. All these girls here gain 25-30 lbs and when they leave the hospital they leave in their biggest size jeans...4. It makes me want to puke. I say give them a ding dong or a ho ho. Anyway I digress. I,being from the south, ate for two. And, when it was over I weighed the amount of 2. I thought in a couple of weeks it will fall off. Boy was I wrong. Finally after 4 kids, I got tired of looking the way I did. When I was younger, I was the hot one. I had to get that back. After I had Emma, I did The Firm. I was on a strict diet, and I mean strict. I exercised everyday and it began to come off slowly but surely. It took me 1 year. I was so proud of what I had accomplished. I did not want to go into my 30's overweight. After I lossed the weight, I kinda slacked a bit. Now thanks to my good friend Marlene, I am training for the Wasatch Back. 2 months ago I couldn't run 1 mile much less 5 and that is where I am now. I am at my 5 mile mark. I am very proud of myself and cannot wait to do the race. I am also doing P90X. If you don't know what that is, you should google it. It is intense but I am liking it. I will be in better shape than I was when I was "cheerleading". I hope this is what I look like in the Celestial kingdom and not the big fat lady.

Clarification

I have to clarify my last blog. I love my kids and they are great but they can be little devils. I also love babies. But when you get to mouthy little kids, and the ones that cry and won't shut up, and the ones that wipe their noses with their hands and then touch you, I have to draw the line.

Kids

I know some people will take this the wrong way and get offended but here it goes. I cannot stand kids. They are loud and obnoctious,annoying germ carriers. Kids get on my nerves. What really gets on my nerves are the kids that run all over the place and the parents that watch and think they are the cutest kids in the world. Well they are not. I am not one of those parents that think their kids could walk on water. My kids are devils and I will be the first one to admit it. So come on people your kids are annoying. The first step os to admit they have a problem.
