OK all you blog crazies I guess I will give in. I will admit it has been fun to read your blogs-my complaint is that I do not think they should ever replace a phone call. Nothing drives me more nuts than when I am talking to someone and they say haven't you read my blog? It's like I am being downgraded to irrelevant status if I have to go read what someone wants me to know about their life.
Life is great right now-I feel busy and have three great kids and a sweet wife, not much more a guy could ask for except a room with like a million fish tanks. But seriously, life is great.
Brianna is as sweet as she can be-obedient, cheerful, smart, way above average on reading for her age. She is precious.
Kyle-hills and valleys, one second he will make you want to hug him and another, well you get the idea. We have been struggling to deal with his anger and talking back. I knew Melanie was going to contribute some bad genes somewhere along the line. (ok we all know where it comes from, I admit it). We have been doing a bit of reading and for FHE we had a lesson on anger for the whole family. I told the story of when i killed Dan's mormon crickets and he was angry but didn't hit me. Just got me in a bunch of trouble with mom and dad. Anyway, we now have an angry sock in our house. Whenever someone feels angry which is a natural emotion that needs to be expressed, they can grab the angry sock and wring it. we will see how it goes.
I had so much fun taking him to the fish auction in Salt Lake. We spent the night before at Great Grandma Brown's and had a good visit with her. While at the auction, he held my bid paddle and bid on a few things I didn't want when I wasn't paying attention. But we had so much fun. On the car ride down the cord to the dvd player was screwed up so we just talked. The next morning I told him I would buy him a toy since his cord was broken. We were at the Quik Stop in Malad-there were no toys to be found in that place. He found a traveler's sewing kit that he like so we got that. It lasted for about 10 min. Once in Salt Lake I bought a new cord and all was well. Anyway, I don't get the chance to spend a lot of extended one on one time with him so it was great.
Kameron-is getting so much personality. He makes a face when he gets mad at something. He curls up his top lip and breathes really hard-it is hilarious.
Work is work
Melanie takes great care of us all and I enjoy spending time with her. Last week we went to the Titanic exhibit and had a great time. We are really trying to make a goal and go out at least once a week and to take our kids and do something fun for them once a week. Sometimes we succeed, sometime we dont.
Well that's all for the blog now-I make no committments on posting very often but at least there's something out there now.

WHOA!! Sign of the apocolypse!!! Thanks for blogging! Even though we live seconds away, we don't really see you that often so its fun to get the "inside" on whats up :)
Just what I was thinking...the Second Coming must be pretty close ! Thanks, Dave. A great read !!
Ahh yes, David has finally been assimilated. He is one of us now. All we're waiting for now is Jason.
