I looked out the window and what did I see?

My brand new laptop waiting for me.... It finally arrived. It is wonderful. I can type and back space. All the letters work it is wonderful. I am back in blogging action. But I guess I am really back in blogging action because of Jake. Isn't he a peach. He has given me so much to blog about and I am so thankful don't get me wrong. All the guys at his work think I am a Queen B. They just now really know the truth about me after the last blog. But life is only getting better. Jake surprised me with a nice romantic dinner from his girlfriend Wendy's joint. But while we were are enjoying our fries and hamburger Jake slips in a little bit of useful information.. "while I went with Jesse, I gotta a dog." Seriously "Yes" he said. So I asked what any normal wife would ask who has had the weekend that I had. "Are you just trying to piss me off?" So off Jake heads to meetings. I go outside to check to see if there is a dog. No there isn't a dog out there....There was 2 dogs.... So, I am wondering if anyone knows of an apartment for rent for Jake and an extremely large bear.

The wrath of Jodi

So since my last post I have thought about how am I going to blog this upcoming event. I have thought of a few ideas to introduce the subject. Were going on a Jake hunt. Bear or husband that is the question. Husband for sale. What category would this go under on eBay. But the last few days I have unleashed the wrath of Jodi on Jake. It all started over dinner Jake said "the guy called and the bear would be ready this weekend. " I laughed . SURE.. So Friday Jake called home and said "can I go bird hunting on Sat? Or do you want me to bring the bear home on Friday night. " Well I weighed the options. A hundred dollar bird hunt on Saturday or a bear. I choose neither. So Jake said fine I will hunt birds on Sat and then pick the bear up that night. SO this is when the claws came out. I needed a big break and a deep breathe . So I went to pick up porter from nana's and then another issue came up that almost caused a use of the epi-pen. A crying mother praying to heavenly father for her little boy who couldn't breathe after eating cheese popcorn with Drey and nurse Jami who deals with this stuff at crest working.

But the news was told to porter and he had to call Drey and nana. It has almost been as exiting for Jake and porter as Christmas. So after a trip to Lehi with a snowmobile trailer it is here. Yes I want to tell you that it isn't as bad or big as I thought. But it is huge. Porter and Drey love it. Jake loves it and I am in depression. At least it doesn't stink.. So if you would like to see it. Come on down Jake and Porter would be proud to show you.

The boys took about a million pictures of it and then they wanted their picture taken with it.

So since it has been outside in the trailer since Sat night waiting for the guys to help move it. I have just talked mad OK yelled and scram at Jake about looking at me. Or anything that I can think of too yell at him about. I know many of you will not believe that but it is true.J ake has said the bear has been in the house for the last few month. I guess that is me...

So there is some of the beck's dirty laundry for ya.....

So for all of you who would like to see it. Here it is.....

PS-- Jake is looking for a 1 room apartment for a few months while I calm down..

PSS-- The only comfort I have this week is that a email came and my new computer has been shipped. It is hard to type when half of your numbers and letters don't work..

Like sands through the hour glass.. So are the days of our lives..

There will be more information posted soon about this time in my life. I will give you and update and a picture when I have my new computer. Since I spilled water all over mine and the numbers and letters I need to log into the blog. Don't work any more. I just hope that I survive the weekend. I may need your help with sympathy and chocolate.

What time is it?

Only in Payson would you see this sign to send off the hunters. I have heard the opening of the deer hunt compared to Cinco De Mayo. A bunch of men running around drunk shooting their guns. PRETTY SAFE.

They added the Root about 2 days after the first posting. But Jami and I got a good laugh at it.
Our Garden would you say we have a "Plethora of Pumpkins?" Quoting the Three Amigos. Our garden kicked out about 25 pumpkins. We will be carving and digging out seeds for the rest of our lives.


We actually bought some of the Mr. Potato Head stick in the pumpkin things that work real smooth. But Jake feels we need the carving and cutting experience. He will do any thing to break out his knives and sharpen them...
But now that I have told you about how great life is. Let me tell you a little gripe. I HATE HALLOWEEN. I hate the scary shows that come with it, I hate the dark. But most of all I hate those stupid emails that go around. I have all ready commented about the pumpkin moon. Since posting that I have not got another one of them.. But the ones that get you watching a movie of a girl wrecking on her bike the email states, or playing tic tac toe. So you are concentrating thinking you have three in a row in the bag, and then the scary lady pops up and screams. What the heck. I appreciate all of you sending those and scary the you know what out of me. Porter and I about had a hard attack after a tough game of Tic Tac Toe. So anyways if you continue to want to send them great, just don't send them to me. And that's all I have to say about that.

Nothing blog worthy to blog about..

So I haven't had anything blog worthy to blog about lately. Porter was the star student last week, and now this week it is someone elses turn. He had to bring his poster home. He wasn't to happy about that. I guess he felt like he should be the star student all week. Keller has a cold and he is the grumpiest kid I have ever meet. Jake has now racked up two straight weeks of bird hunting at a bird farm. The justice is it has been cold so I feel better about him getting to go out and play while I stay at home and slave over the laundry and the chores (if you could see my house you would call BS on that statement). I think that there is a reason you go to college when you are young and single with no responsibilities but looking for your spouse. I will confess lately I have been skipping paragraphs and if it is a chart,graph or some kind of statistics it is skipped. I sure hope my professor isn't a blog stalker and comes across this sometime. But I love the weather sitting in front of the gas stove, drinking hot chocolate and watching Iron Man with Porter is my favorite thing to do lately. Here is another picture of out Halloween costumes and an update on the P-town becks..

Sports do not build character. They reveal it

A wise man once said; "Sports do not build character. They reveal it." -- Coach John Wooden and if you don't know who he is. You can not call yourself a true sports fan.

But the other night I was playing for the world series of COED SLOW PITCH SOFTBALL in Santaquin Utah. When I was once again reminded of one of my favorite quotes from coach wooden.

"Sports do not build character. They reveal it."

WHY.. THose of you of you who were there you know what I mean.

2nd on my list of gripes today. Is Yes I am guilty of this one. But I have now officially been mooned 7 times this year by the scarecrow pumpkins butt... But it is all fun and games but I am wondering if you have all been mooned as much as me..
