Yearbook Photos

Alright. I had some fun with this one. And yes, I wasted quite a bit of time on it. But some of these turned out pretty good I thought. Please enjoy my yearbook photos, from 1954-2000. Click to enlarge.
I expect to see some of you create your own. Go to www.yearbookyourself.com.

Rather dumb woman.

Apparently she's never heard of a tow truck.

Lake Powell

My sister in law Heather is a fantastic photographer. Check out her website if you like. She had her camera down at Lake Powell and got some great shots.

"I lost my swimsuit...has anyone seen it?"

Me diving with my new swimsuit I just made. Thank goodness for boy scouts for teaching me how to make a very fashionable swimsuit from a t-shirt.

LOL! Clayton "parading" on the beach. Cracks me up.


Can you spot the retard?

The Six Quirks Tag

Ok, I've never done one of these before. But since Brandi took the time to tag me, I'll acquiesce.

Brandi tagged to come up with six quirks about myself. Here are the rules:

* Link the person who tagged you
* List 6 of your quirks
* Tag 6 other bloggers by linking them
* List the rules on your blog

THE QUIRKS:

1. Punctuality. If you were to graph my irritation level related to minutes that I'm late for something, the curve would rise exponentially beginning minute one, with an average slope of at least 25. I don't like being late, especially when people are waiting on me.

2. Reading on the toilet. I've read entire novels on the toilet. I've always gotta have something to read in there. I really like to do business when I'm doing business. Too much info? Yes. But you wanted to know the quirks.

3. If you haven't gathered it already, I'm a nut for BYU football. I read every article written on them every day. I can't not watch the games. If it isn't available in my house, I'll most likely knock doors till I find someone who has it.

4. I don't know if these are quirks, or simply the results of being a member of the lesser sex: belching, gas (seems to be there whenever I need it, especially in the middle of the night), ear wax, & stinky feet.

5. I pick at my eyelashes. I posted about this once before. Go here to see that post. I've done this my whole life. I usually have big chunks of eyelashes missing. Right now the gap is on my left eye. See below:
6. I sleep face down with my pillow on my head.

Ok, so who to tag. It would be neat if I actually had a group of dedicated subscribers to choose from - but I think I only have one or two readers. Anyway, I'll tag Josh, Emily, and Mindy.

Southern Smarts...

Blog Worthy Joke

This got me laughing.

A farmer had five pigs:


A farmer had five female pigs. Times were hard, so he decided to take
them to the county fair and sell them. At the fair, he met another
farmer who owned five male pigs. After talking a bit, they decided to
mate the pigs and split everything 50/50. The farmer's lived sixty
miles apart. So they agreed to drive thirty miles each, and find a
field in which to let the pigs mate.

The first morning, the farmer with the female pigs got up at 5 A.M.,
loaded the pigs into the family station wagon, which was the
only vehicle he had, and drove the thirty miles.

While the pigs were mating, he asked the other farmer, "How will I
know if they are pregnant?" The other farmer replied, "If they're
lying in the grass in the morning, they're pregnant. if they're in the
mud, they're not."! ;The next morning the pigs were rolling in the
mud. So he hosed them off, loaded them into the family station wagon
again and proceeded to try again.

This continued each morning for more than a week. The next morning he
was too tired to get out of bed. He called to his wife, "Honey, please
look outside and tell me whether the pigs are in the mud or in the
grass."
"Neither," yelled his wife, "they're in the station wagon and one of
them is honking the horn."

Lake Powell return trip...

Ok. So Lake Powell was a blast, and I will get pics up of that soon enough. But Jon and I had a riot on the way home taking pictures of none other than ourselves. This slide show is dedicated to all those who love taking pictures of themselves.

ENJOY!
