Excuse Me?

So I ran that My Heritage celebrity look-a-like thing.... and I guess I always wondered if I look like a man, but I had no idea I looked the MOST out of ALL the celebrities out there, like an Asian man I have never heard of! And out of ten celebrity faces that it did match me to, I had almost more men than women!! Del and I laughed our HEADS off over this! I am not feeling particularly butch lately, but I must be making people wonder if I am in drag if I am to trust what My Heritage has to say about it!!
I mean, I wasn't expecting them to tell me that I look like Angelina Jolie or anything, but come on! Does this thing have something against me? Shigeki Maruyama, Michael Schumacher, Gerard Depardieu, and Courtney Love?

So I better go. I am going to look into being a stunt double for Shigeki. Still laughing... so hard I am snorting.

P.S. All of you out there should run your picture through this thing. It is really good for your self esteem!!

Day At The Pool

We took the kids to the local pool for one more family dip before school starts. We have to keep a close eye on Georgia, as she thinks she can already swim and crouches down and puts her face in the water. It was so cute, and the life-guard told me we have to get her in a class. She is a little pro. And note Wally in his goggles. He looks like some kind of bug. He loves those things. It was a fun day for all of us!

Our 2008 Summer Utah Trip

We loaded up the car and drove to Utah for the second summer in a row.
It was a VERY long drive, only aggravated by my stupidity, when I took a wrong turn in Des Moines and almost drove us to Kansas City. So after the recovery from the realization I had just cost my kids even more time in the car, we zipped right through. We set a new record for ourselves on the way home by making the drive in 20 hours straight through. Our kids really were so good for the amount of drive time we put them through.
We had so much fun seeing family and great friend on our visit. It is always so nice to be surrounded by the people we miss the most!



Fun in Grandma's backyard with the cousins.

My parents took us to the Dinosaur museum in Ogden. The boys loved it, and are now absolutely fascinated by dinosaurs. It is all we hear about around here.


We also stopped at Hill Air Force Base and let the kids look at the airplanes.

We like to take the kids up to Gateway to let them run through the fountains. It was especially fun this year because both my sister Emily, and Del's sister Renee came with their broods.


Love that crack!
