Petrified Wood

So I used to use 'petrified wood' as an example of something I felt 'neutral' about. I have now decided that I am no longer neutral toward it, I do not like it. I am currently searching for something to replace this for my example of neutralness. It is hard to think of something you feel neutral about, most things that come to mind right off the bat are things I don't like, then if I think harder, I think of things I like, but try thinking of something you don't really like or dislike, it's just there. Harder than you thought, eh?

Turnip/Large Bell Pepper

So I am 17 weeks and 6 days, this is the appx size of the little man.
Wierd. Who references 'turnips'?


Bell Pepper - 18 weeks


Turnip - 17 weeks (this particular picture is a 'healthy' size...)



Disclaimer: This is not the appx size of my freaking belly..! Looks more like a swallowed 4 turnips and a small cat whole!

Yellowstone/Jackson Hole Trip

So we left last Friday with my parents and left for Ennis, MO. We drove thru Idaho Falls and Rexburg and got good shots of both temples. We stayed in a cute little cabin of our own, drove around looking for animals, laughed, and ate. We saw a ton ton ton of deer that first night, too many for it to even be cool anymore. We saw a few flocks of geese that were kinda cool, but it was too dark to get pics. AND I hate birds. We had our own little cabin and our own room and even our own bed! It was great, clean and very nice. (I expect nothing less from my mother.) So we went to Yellowstone Saturday and Sunday, drove our butts off looking for wildlife & gysers. It was a ton a driving, but a lot of fun. We actually saw more wildlife outside the park than we saw inside. We went to Jackson Hole, WY Sunday night and stayed in a cute little lodge overlooking the river. Trust my dad to always eat well on vacations, we had great food every meal! (Max says 'thanks papa'!) We listened to Jerry Seinfeld and Larry the Cable Guy and laughed and laughed. It was great.

Buffalo

Buffalo on side of road. They are so mellow it is funny. Problably aren't too funny when they are rawled up. In fact one of the handouts we got said people get 'gored' if they agrivate them too much. 'Gore' was a dramatic choice or word I thought, but hell, i guess it really is that bad.
