Go Fly a Kite

Who Does He Think He Is??

I came downstairs the other morning to find this.....

He's looking at me like "what???"

He thinks he's a human or something.

And for those of you that are curious about a neti pot go to http://www.netipot.org/ and watch the demo video. Don't you people watch Oprah?

No More Brass Door Knobs!

Good one honey.

Not only did we make it back alive from our first backpacking trip, but we had a great time too! I know this may shock some of you but..... I cant wait to do it again! I was rather proud of myself - not only did I hike 5 miles into the wilderness carrying a huge backpack, I overcame my fear of (i hope this isn't too much info) "going" in the woods. Here are some pictures from our trip:

Here's Charlie raring to go right before we set out. He's such a good helper!

Here's Brett on the trail Notice Charlie up at the front. He was constantly fighting to be in the lead, and I was constantly in the back.

Beautiful beautiful scenery, and me bringing up the rear


Not a very good picture of us, but check out that view!

Brett and Charlie at camp.

There was still some snow on the ground which turned out to be very convenient. Especially when we needed to put out our fire.

Another picture of Charlie in the lead and me bringing up the rear.

After a rocky start he's hooked. He didn't want to mess around with the kid stuff, he wanted to go straight to playing hymns. And by gully he's doing it.

In other news, please notice the red and black thing in the picture behind Brett. Well folks, that's my backpack. It's carrying everything I'll need for two days. 2 DAYS! We're going backpacking! So pray that I live to tell the tale.

Happy Mother's Day

Thanks for all you do mom!! Even though you're far away, I don't know what I'd do without you! I love you!
