Blairs back to blogging

as you probably now by now Maren is particly king of the blogs but no more i might not blog every day by mine will be more interesting. ya maren i went there. so let me share with you some of my videos.

Update

Hello everyone! I just thought I would let you all know what has been going on. Nothing singularly is worthy of its own post so I thought I would just catch you all up at once.

1.) Brent is currently engrossed in finals. I have not talked to him about just about anything else since before thanksgiving break. I have no doubt that he is doing amazinginly well but we will not officially find out until late january when grades and rankings come out. He has two more final exams. One on Tuesday and the other on thursday.

2.) I am also slowly finishing up this semester. I plan to submit one of my finals today, and then take one monday tuesday and wednesday. I think I will do fairly well on all of them, well I don't forsee any major issues but you never really know. I am hoping to achieve all A's this semester but honestly I am not sure I care if I recieve a B in one or two courses.

3.) So as most all of you know the company I work for is down sizing... well going out of business. This has been happening for a while now so I am not surprised and have been expecting to be let go for a while now, this, however, has not happened. Yesterday I was pulled into my supervisors office and she asked me to stay on through next January and increase my hours a little. Well I am kinda done with the job and have made arrangments to start T.A. ing for Prof. Lott 20 hours next semester which should cover all of our needs but I said yes. I figure it is better to use that extra money from that month to save up for a harder time or even better, put it towards brents law school fund. Regardless I will still be working with Icon until the mid or late January time.

4.) Brents football team did make it to the championship game but they lost. I did not go because it was ten degrees out and I am intelligent, but brent told me that to win the championship they would have had to beat the team twice because they were undefeated. He also told me that right before the game they over heard the officials saying that they had to make sure Brents team lost so they would not have to work on saturday. I think that would have been very demoralizing and I am sure Brents team would have had a much better shot if the refs had been decent.

5.) Ericas Wedding in on Saturday. I have been helping out here and there but not a ton. I am excited and this week should be really good for her! Brent is really excited that he gets to eat at Tacano's and that we get it all for free makes him even happier! It should be a great time but I am ready freeze for pictures!

6.) WE GET TO GO HOME! Brent and I are both getting very very antzy about leaving for christmas break. Thanks to somewonderful sisters in our ward we have substitutes for our class and then we have a friend who is willing to watch Caliah while we are in Arizona! Well I should get to homework but hope you all enjoyed this!

My blog!

Okay everyone! Mon suggested as a Personal Progress project I should blog every week. I think this is a great idea and I will start right now! SO as we all know today was Blairs birthday! Yay! But he isn't having his birthday dinner tonight so I'm not going to blog about it! Instead I want to blog about a funny e-mail I got and read to Mom, dad, Toren, Audrey, Blair and Cj. They were laughing so hard! It is really true. I think this story is true for Frisbee Baxter and Itty-Bitty (our dog, our other dog, and our cool cat) Here it is!

From a Cat's Daily Diary...

Day 983 of my captivity.
My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects.

They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed hash or some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my strength.

The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape. In an attempt to disgust them, I once again vomit on the carpet.

Today I decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike fear in to their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates what I am capable of. However, they merely made condescending comments about what a 'good little hunter' I am. Bastards.

Th ere was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to the power of 'allergies.' I must learn what this means and how to use it to my advantage.

Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this again tomorrow -- but at the top of the stairs.

I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches. The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released - and seems to be more than willing to return. He is obviously retarded.

The bird has got to be an informant. I observe him communicating with the guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is safe. For now.......

That was funny wasn't it! I loved and I will start the blogging next week too!

Dear Braden

Dear Braden,

You were blessed in church today, and we just wanted to let you know how sad we are that we couldn't be there. I'm sure your mom has told you that we're living in Ohio right now (along with Aunt Mallory and Uncle Brent). The rise in gas prices made the cost of plane tickets skyrocket recently and we just couldn't afford it. Don't worry, though, we'll be at every big event in your life after this. Even though we haven't had a chance to meet you yet, we also want to let you know that we love you very much and you will be spoiled very well by us. Look forward to that!

Love,

Aunt Audrey, Uncle Toren and Cousin Bax

For proof of how sad we are, just check out the picture below:
