bOyS!!!

Why is it that boys think fighting is cool, or tough or macho?? Jade got into a "Sparring" match, they claim was Ultimate Fighting....but I disagree with him on that one. In my opinion he was releasing a lot of anger towards the kid. All I know is Jade was knocked out which makes his opponent the winner right??? Sigh....
His ears were black.......





His hand was swollen, black and blue.....

I hauled him off to the ER on Monday to get it checked. Diagnosis....
His thumb is broken and the ligaments are possibly torn. We have to see an orthopedic dr. on Thursday.

Sooo.....for being a good little boy he got a prize from the nurses....2 stickers and a sucker.....

29 Years Ago Today.......

HaPpY AnNiVaRsArY to Us!!!

29 years ago today I married my love. Did you know we had only known each other for 2 months before getting married? I met Randy on Center Street in Provo on June 20th 1980. He was a cocky little turd, who strutted his stuff for all the ladies cruising Center. He saw me and yelled for me to "pull over"!! Playing hard to get, I didn't! On the next pass down Center, he jumped out in front of my car, forcing me to stop so he could jump in. He asked me out on a date and when he asked for my name and number, I told him I was Lisa Jensen, and gave him a phony phone number. My friend that was with me ended up telling him my real name and phone number. From the day we went on our first date, we were inseperable. He was the BEST kisser!! Randy wore this black western shirt with white snap buttons that he looked so HOT (sexy) in, and after our first date I had to keep it because it had his "smell" on it! When I missed him, I would sniff the shirt and couldn't wait to be with him!

So here we are 29 years later, and I still love the same good-looking, sexy man.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY RANDALL FRANK HALL!!

And this is the result after 29 years of marriage.......

Happy Birthday Shawn

This is a VERY late post to tell my son-in-law Shawn Happy Birthday!! Even tho I told him on his b-day and we had a party for him, I can't let the opportunity go, by telling him what a SPECIAL person he is to us. Kara needs to know how truly lucky she is to have Shawn. I don't know many husbands that are like Shawn. You know that this man loves his wife and more importantly how serious he takes being a good husband and father. When Shawn got a new job after being unemployed for 6 months, he said how he's going to miss not getting to play with his kids everyday, all day long. How many guys say that!!

Anyway....we just want Shawn to know how much we absolutely LOVE him and appreciate all he does for our daughter and our grandchildren.

HaPpY bIrThDaY sHaWn-JuAn!!!!!

Jade's Senior Pictures

Here is my "baby"! I cannot believe that my youngest is graduating this (school) year! Isn't he cute! Thank you Kara for taking his pictures.

Weekend Getaway

Over the weekend, we decided to head south to Blanding to go 4-wheelin' with the Cosby's. It was so much fun!! This is where I grew up, so it's fun to go back "home" once in a while. Dennis, Cathy, Ked & Ashley always have some fun trails to ride. Here we are getting ready to go.

We saw a lot of bucks and doe's

The view from the top of Blue Mountain overlooking the valley is so beautiful. At this vantage point you are looking at 4 states.. It's "more" breath taking when you are right there, than in this picture.

There's a forced "cheeze".....

Stopping to eat lunch in a nice shady spot...

There was a quakie tree that had fallen over one of the gate passages, so here we had to hold back one of the large branches to allow us to get thru.

Almost thru the end of the ride, you have to stop at Johnson's Creek and take a break just to enjoy the scenery and let the kidlets play in the creek for a minute...


All the older farts have to lay down and take their afternoon nap.

Once we got home and showered, Cathy fixed us the BEST Navajo Taco's and we ate it out on her deck.

Dennis dressed himself after his shower....

Coming back home, we stopped at Wilson Arch in Moab to take some pictures. We drive by this every trip we take to Blanding, but have never stopped.

Can't forget Indo....This is his kind of heat!!!

We had a really good time!!
