The anti-diet




Well, the diet is on. Mom is looking absolutely fantastic and now I'm on it also. I suck so bad at dieting. I am a constant cheat. This is also complicated by the fact that I have a recent hobby of baking. It so fun to make something and then decorate it and then devour it. We made pumpkin cupcakes and Colby helped us cut up the laffy taffies to use as the faces and then recently I made cupcake sushi. It didn't really have an incredible taste, it was more for looks than for taste. They weren't bad tasting, just weird with the gummy bears, green tootsie rolls, and frosting. It's been a ton of fun.
Chris and I have been playing in a hockey league down in Provo, (actually on our way to the game now.) we haven't won yet, but we're getting better. It's great to spend time together, maybe Tyler would play with us when he gets back out here:)

Cake boss Ross



I've decided that I like the idea of making a cake. Duncan hienes took care of the body and I looked to Google to dress it up. It took the better part of the afternoon, but I think it turned out great.

Been awhile



It sure has been a long time. It's going pretty smooth out here in the Boston town.  Kinda slow, but we're getting enough jobs for now.  We've done a ton of fun things so far. The most recent was trip to Maine for a scenic drive and good eats. The trip started out early in the morning taking the drive. We stopped first at Nubble Point. there was cool lighthouse there on an island. Who doesn't love a great lighthouse? We spent quite a while there playing on the rocky coast. There tons of crabs to chase and catch. Bathe best were the starfish.  They were everywhere and easy to catch, they don't run away. We played for awhile in the water and then we went for lunch at Fox's for some Maine lobster. I dont remmber ever really eating lobster, especially when you have take it apart. It was messy, hot, and awkward. The taste was ok, but I  don't think it was enough to warrant the price or the work it takes to get the meat. After that it was a great afternoon playing frisbee on the beach. I love being out here on the coast. It was a fantastic weekend. I'd sure like to see some current pictures of the family, or the new house work.
