Tyler Laughs

It's not very often that we have multiple posts in a day, but we wanted to share a video of Tyler laughing for the first time. He got started when I told him that some meat head on ESPN.com actually picked the Magic to beat the Lakers in the NBA Finals. Okay, not really.

Back on the Oxygen

Last night, we noticed Tyler looking pretty blue. Probably bluer than he's ever been. Jamie took his saturation levels and they were pretty low. We had to hook him up to the oxygen again. Tyler hated it. Unfortunately for him, he'll probably need it until his next surgery.


On Saturday, we took the kids to Liberty Land, a new play center in Lehi. Jamie's sister in-law works there and hooked us up with free tickets to play Laser Tag and have the kids go on some of the rides. Here's a picture of them on the "Frog-hopper" - a kids version of the Tower of Terror. It's a little blurry, but you can still tell they are having a blast.

No. 15!


I thought about posting more about the Lakers playoff run this year, but decided against it. I didn't want to make my mother in-law upset. :) Tonight's game was a little anti-climatic. The Magic didn't put up much of a fight in the second half until the waning minutes, but it was too little, too late. I wish the Lakers could have got revenge on the Celtics, but a championship is a championship. I do have to admit that Kobe and Fisher's post-game celebration hug was quite lengthy. Good thing their wives showed up to break them apart.

For the record, I picked the Lakers to win in 5 before the series started.

Now the Angels and the Cougs need to follow suit and make this a perfect sports year.

Another wedding

This time it was my good friend from Ridgecrest, Blair. All I can say is, it's about time. Just kidding, Blair. I was able to go his sealing at the Salt Lake Temple and Jamie & Tyler met up with me for the luncheon afterward. All of us, (sans Brandon who is going down to a beach house with his Grandma in California) went to the reception, which was held at this garden place in Orem. The big moment of the night was when Jenny's (Blair's wife) dad's pants fell down during the father-bride dance. Sorry, no video footage.

Somehow, we also managed not to take any pictures of Blair and Jenny. But you're not completely out of luck, as we did get some pics of me, Jamie, and the kids.


Kaylin didn't want her picture taken - silly girl.

Daddy and the boys (well, most of them at least).


Kaylin, still moping, opts out of the picture of my beautiful girls.



By the end of the night, she was happy as can be. I'm sure the cheesecake helped.

Oh, by the way - saw Terminator Salvation the other night. That was a pretty sweet flick, but I'd venture to say it's a lot better on the big screen than it would be on a regular TV. The special effects were pretty awesome. Lots of stuff blowing up. Good times, good times. My only complaint is that the dude who played Ham Tyler in the V series should have had more screen time and shouldn't have been confined to "central command." If he doesn't have a gun and explosives, he's being underused.

UPDATE!!! - Here is a picture of Blair and Jenny that my friend Zeke took. Aren't they a good looking couple?

This is June??

First off - Happy Birthday to my sister Amy. She's 21, married and pregnant. I feel old.

Today was an interesting day weather-wise. It's been rainy most of the week, but today took the cake as far as intensity in our neighborhood. Not only was it pouring, it was hailing also. Check these pics out.




Maybe next week it will snow.
