Good times!

Well today I FINALLY began the task of organizing my "craft room". There is bajillions of unfinished and unstarted projects. Things I have purchased but never put my hands on. Lots of things! It's exciting potential but nothings happening with it. Anyhow, as I was unloading a few small boxes that hadn't been opened yet, I came across my book of poems that I've written. So tonight begins the sharing of my poems. Oh what a delightful and hilarious journey it will be as I reveal the hideous past I once lived. All these poems are from an "era" of my life known as high school. Craig likes to call it Hike school. Don't ask me why. I don't even know why I told you that. Anyhow, I once was a pathetic girl who had boys boys boys constantly ripping and tearing at my heart, and occupying most of my life! When I say the hilarious journey begins, you just wait until you see what embarassing I can do to myself. I know that only I will find them hilarious -- oh but your curious minds will for sure get a glimpse of a sad sad day in my life. Needless to say, I will be sharing my best kept secrets and opening the door to humiliation and regret. Todays poem however begins with a little less "depth" (shall we say) then the rest. But I also find it ironic and as you read, you will see there is one line in which I didn't keep my word. Tonights poem was titled...

UTAH
I love the beauty we have here
The gorgeous mountains that are near
Special places we can go
To get away where no one will know
I love our sunshine it's just right
The sky is beautiful at night
I love our parks where we can lay
Waiting for another day
The trees are amazing in the fall
We go on long drives to look at them all
The winter is perfect with awesome snow
Looking around here so many things grow
I love being outdoors and would stay there forever
If offered to live somewhere else I would never (ha hah ahahaa!)
The river it's gentle beauty is rare
Tonight I'll thank God for this place in my prayer

Alrighty then, so now I'm blushing! But honestly, how sad is that really? I miss my beloved home state!! It's so good to be out here seeing the world though. There's more beautiful places than just Utah. The fall here is absolutely AMAZING as well! I have some pictures I've developed that I've taken with my NON digital camera and as soon as I get them on CD I will share them, but it's really beautiful here in Mississippi too but Utah is Utah and I sure love it! Don't take it for granted ya'll that live there!

Lastly tonight... my favorite thing to share. Videos of my littlest Linkster buckeroo! Here are two videos that had me laughing. I hope to get the fact that he's a total Kooky monster across by showing these two videos that I took today. There's many more videos out there that have been shoved to the back burner but I shall stay on top of it today and catch up later...
Forewarning: The second video starts out real funny and then heads straight down hill as he throws a few temper tantrums and then falls and hits his head! Just a heads up!

Okay--- I like your poem. I wrote a lot in hike school too! Lol! Sad times. hahaha! And Deisel could swollow Linkin if he ever wanted to without even chewing! Tooo funny!

I like getting comments too so I guess I need to be better at writing them. By the way the poem was good. I bet I feel the same way about Utah after we have been gone for a while.

Such a cute little boy. He's a little weird but oh well. He has weird parents. Thanks for teaching him that cough laugh you do, Jackie. Just what we need in the family another cough laugher.
