trading places

so, this is jared and i pretty much refuse to ever capitalize anything...except for Christ, God, and words like that. i just wanted to let you know what it would be like when i post to this blog.

we just had a great visit from my parents. we were semi-busy (nothing new) but my parents are always good sports and are willing to put up with our crazy lives. i didn't see my parents until wednesday night when they came home from a opening dinner and entertainment. they both look so good. they are eating right and exercising...and it shows. love them to death!

here's a picture of corban with cousin sinjin in salt lake going into home depot:

I missed my wife and corban while they had a mini vacation in utah. amanda's friend, allison, was married last weekend. they left saturday morning and got back tuesday night. but apparently they had a great time! while amanda suffered in the snow, i suffered in the 80's (weather, not era)! it was nice and busy at work, but i still missed them terribly.

TRADING PLACES:

ok, so nika (our dog) has been doing certain things forever. things like climbing in the bottom of the stroller on walks...knocking over the laundry basket and climbing in to play...well, there was a role change just recently. check out the videos and pictures to see what i mean. basically you can see that from an early age our children are observing and learning...corban is learning how to be a dog. here's a pic of corban in nika's bed:

hope you enjoyed my first attempt. this will be the first of few, i am sure.
