EASTER ASSORTMENT

LAUGHING OUT LOUD

I was sitting here thinking about how we can make the Marble Mountain Trek more extreme: bring one pair of clothes, take only rice and seasonings, trap and kill a few more animals, and generally go wild for like 10 days( lord of the rings style). Then I remembered how we all try to pack in a little more from home each time, crammed into our packs, and more and more items end up at Shelley Lake then there would be at Black Bird. Well, then that's when I laughed out loud, because I remembered that Danny tried to go extreme without a tent last year and ended up in the Zuro clan tent, tucked in between Carter and Calvin, he thought anything would be better than being attacked by the prehistoric ants and flying insects at 5 am. Well he was terribly wrong, not only did we not fit in a four man tent, but Carter itched himself to death all night and I kept reaching over Danny to beat him every 10 minutes until Danny decided to hold onto his hands and sort of lay on top of him to stop the scratching madness when all of the sudden, he yelped and Carter sat up to puke on top of him, and all over our sleeping bags. He actually got four people with it and I was crying and laughing and dry heaving at the same time! I used bum wipes and roll on deodorant and Dannys head lamp to clean it up so we could survive the rest of the night. So maybe Lord of the Rings style will have to be an adult only trip!

HAPPY EASTERSSSSSS!!!

Well, it's that time of year again, same time, every year...these pop up...EVERYWHERE...and what comes into my head?.......HOLLY NEVILLE!! Back in the day when Iwas young and spry, at Ricks College, Holly and I would haul around in the blue dart. Three on the tree baby!! We owned Rexburg Holly and you know it. Holly was the addict first and then, due to temptation...oh the horrible influence you had on me Holly, I fell.....I fell hard. I love these mini-eggs and I buy bags and bags and bags every year and then stuff my face, get sick, and start all over again the next day. But it's good cuz it brings me back to my family, my cousin Holly Neville, then my mind wanders over to the livestock center, then to homeade pipebomb things we blew up in apartment complexes, then to prank calls, then....Oh I could go on. Happy Easter Holly! P.S. Notice the opened container of this package....I had to!!!

So... Alyssa's favorite movie is "Annie". She loves, loves loves the singing, the " over acting", and broadway dancing etc... So she liken's her life and everyone else's to the character's in the movie. Guess who I am? She will mimic the dances, and say the lines only if she thinks no one is watching, but the note that I am posting relates to this story, because she secretly wants us both to be" girls on broadway", performing and dancing alot, and mostly being very dramatic, so when I got mad at her for doing so, she wrote this note ( I banned her from talking for 10 minutes).
