i wanted to stick the picture of tyler's head in the water where we all did our but it is on tyler's phone and he is rocking out to the real dave matthews right now, the real one who is playing right now up in salt lake--what a cool kid. instead i found this wondrous photo of aaron--very nice.

tyler's sunday activity. like sister like brother.
max was pretty excited because grandpa made him strawberry juice.
poser--------------this is him posing for the camera, drinking.
it was a party over here sunday.
ok this one comes from our trip. tyler is officially fired as trip historian. we did the narrows and the sugar loaf and didn't get a single picture of it. we only have stuff from the car and right as we were leaving.

kung fu panda action. looks like a pretty good movie. it got watched 2.3 times i think.
it was fun to talk to grandpa down there

so week in review. probably forgot a bit of stuff but what comes to mind is the trip to st george. we left thurs morning after basketball and racquetball and drove down. missed meadow hot pots - sad day - but went straight to zions narrows. walked all through the water and had an awesome time there. (see http://www.zionnational-park.com/zion-narrows.htm ). then off to st george. mel and mom went to see cats and ty and i stayed home with grandpa and talked for a while - it was a lot of fun - he is a funny guy. then we went off to get a carton of ice cream (double berry cream cheese) and eat it on top of the sugar loaf till we got kicked off by the coppers. went over to tuachan and picked up mom and mel. that night was the largest meteor shower of the year so we went out towards a town called veyo and tried to stay at a pool reservoir thing place that looked way cool but had to much red tap so we stayed at some random coral thing on the side of the road and watched it. it was so awesome. lots of good ones. friday morning we got up and went back to get mom, had a good breakfast and got right back on the road to come home. it was a quick trip but way fun. that night we went up to todd's wedding reception and a good time was had by all there.

saturday was alpine days and we celebrated with racquetball in the morning ( just ty and i, mom and dad went up to the wedding), came home to our very own fireman's breakfast, then went on a good bike ride down the crazy rodeo trail - i almost crashed and i did get covered in stickers, (it has not been a good week for mt biking, i crashed on wednesday and hurt my side pretty good). after mt biking i got the trailer hooked up and went up to sand to pick up the brand new player piano. ( brand new for us, it is actually from 1923 and will need a lot of work before the player mechanism works) that night we went to see the fireworks and they we good as always.

sunday i was just reaffirmed that to have a good class all you need to do is bring a big bowl of candy. one of the classes had it and as you would guess i went straight to that class. starrs came over and we had fun then.

monday i got a lot of stuff done. just little chores that i have been neglecting. had a party with the boys from high school. patrick is off to school in st louise so we sent him off. played a bit on the banjo. this morning (tues) i rolled my ankle and it is pretty big, hopefully will only put me out for a bit. and that about sums it up for the recent past events.
