A human Pyramid...

Nothing can beat it.

The boy's try at it... 

The Girls...

Girls won (the fastest and lined up/strait) - =(
I'm the one in the Orange reflector shirt

It's Wayne Grudem!

This video is a must see. Really.


Oh, and after watching this, and you find yourself thinking "Mmm. That's kinda funny." Then it's clear you haven't seen the background to this song - Go here to watch it and then watch first video over again. (BTW, I don't recommend the movie =)

Now the only thing is this, I wonder what Mr. Grudem thinks about this!


Stay Random!

And you thought you were having a bad day!

For those of you who are, here is something to cheer you up.
This could have been you.

(I feel bad for the dog, actually.)

"Oi! Look, it's a croc!"....

♫ "Here we go around the frozen car, the frozen car, the frozen car, here we go around the frozen car to get away from the bear!" ♫

Doctor: "This won't hurt a bit lil' fellow."

Monkey: "That's what you think"

(don't know about you, but a chill just went down my back!)

(You can just see him screaming for mummy)

Grrrr...

The Computer is acting up.

Internet won't stay on.

Have to schedule more drives so I can graduate from driving school.

Milk goat twice a day.

Ducks.

Feed Dogs, care.

6yo brothers baseball games.

Clean room.

Finish fence.

Practice bass.

Sleep.

Paint.

Finish Sketch.

Get back on running schedule.

Wash hair.

Church.

Make cape for Gus.

Find knife.

Oh, and finish school for this season.
... In other (and shorter words), my life seems to be running away from me and I can't seem to catch up to it. Forgive me if I don't post as much as I used to.

Oh, and I HIGHLY recommend Media Fasts. It REALLY makes you focus.

I've done the unthinkable (at least for myself)

So for those of you who asked to "see" the prank I decided to play for Fools day here is the post. I said I would do something radical and I did. =)

(odd picture but it was the only one that I could find in my file that you could actually see my hair)

So late, late March 31st (it was more April 1at though - after midnight), my mom and I were crowed into the kids bathroom with a box...

A box of dye.

{heh heh heh}

The next morning I woke up with - red hair... and very much startled my family (only my parents knew - dad had to OK it)

Most of you know I'm a blond, I have a kind of always-looks-dirty-blond color that slightly annoys me. But most of you don't know I was born with red locks. At birth (and for some time after) I had red curls that were really cute (I can count on one hand how many photo's we actually have and it would be 2 - bummer huh). But of course, as most baby's do I lost my hair at a (very) young age and it came back in as straight blond.

Anyway - back to what this post is about.

I prank my brothers and sister with waking up with red hair (funny thing is that they didn't even really notice until I started giving hints - it's a very natural red - and I've always had some coppery hints in my blond hair as it were).

Surprising?

Yes.

Now my only problem is that most everyone says I should keep on doing it - and I'm not too sure about that yet (who really wants to buy that stuff and have to keep up on it?)

There it is. Not totally shocking or anything but fun.

I kinda like being a red head (one of my brothers called me carrots... I suddenly feel very close to Anne Shirley - but alas I had no slate to ram on his head)

What did you do for Fools Day???

Please Share!

Bringing back one of the oldies

Here's one of the jokes that we posted at the very beginning of this blog - here it is again.

"Two men dressed in pilots' uniforms walk up the aisle of the aircraft. Both are wearing dark glasses, one is using a guide dog, and the other is tapping his way along the aisle with a cane.
Nervous laughter spreads through the cabin, but the men enter the cockpit the door closes, and the engines start up.

The passengers begin glancing nervously around; searching for some kind of a sign that this is just a little practical joke.

None is forthcoming.

The plane moves faster and faster down the runway, and the people sitting in the window seats realize they're headed straight for the water at the edge of the airport property.
Just as it begins to look as though the plane will plow straight into the water, panicked screams fill the cabin.
At that moment, the plane lifts smoothly into the air. The passengers relax and laugh a little sheepishly, and soon all retreat into their magazines and books, secure in the knowledge that the plane is in good hands.

Meanwhile, in the cockpit, one of the blind pilots turns to the other and says, 'You know Bob, one of these days, they're gonna scream too late and we're all gonna die!' "

How to Train your Dragon

My word, this movie looks funny. Have fun looking at the trailors and little clips. This movie comes to theaters tomorrow.





(sorry if the video feed thingy is too big for my layout...)

"Need a laugh? Here ya' go"

(ow... )

(my thought exactly dad)

(I sometimes feel like this... not that often but sometimes =)

(i totally understand this one)

you must see

A smile for the day

It happened when I hear my Grandfather sing "I'm my own Grandpa" while cleaning his teeth.

=)

Joke for the day

(because we like blonde jokes)

A blonde ordered a pizza and the clerk asked if he should cut it in 6 or 12 pieces.

"Oh, only six I think - I'd never manage to eat all 12 pieces."

You Must Read Out Loud...and then laugh your head off!

This is so funny!

Apples to Apples...funny!

he he he.

Last night I played Apples to Apples (really fun game to all those who haven't played it). But for the longest time that night I didn't get one green card! Then, over half way through I got my first...it was,

Misunderstood

then I got


Neglected


and then...


Offensive

lol, I thought it was funny!

Arg! Grrrrrr.....

Oh bother!


My brain is rotting and my eyes are bugging out...

My Goats + Breeding = “AWKWARD!”

Today I took one of my Oberhasli goats, Molly, to the breeders…
That doesn’t sound like much does it? But it was quite the experience!

(Tis Molly^, at a odd angle)
We finally got to the breeders (about a 75 minute drive) and got poor Molly out. It was then that we found out the “goat lady”(who we usually deal with) was out, so a guy named Jake came to help us. For those of you who know me well, you would guess my “enthusiastic” response to this. *wry grin*
He was around his mid 20’s and very “farmy”(if you know what I mean). But he seemed a little unsure of himself as he was picking out a buck. He finally brought out Bo…
We then knew for sure by her response that Molly was in heat, but we also found out…Bo…was too small… I can’t say a lot here, mainly because I don’t think you would want a vivid picture of poor Bo. So my mom went back into the barn with Jake to find a different, taller buck.
They came out, with an unnamed buck who instantly fell in love with Molly. Bucks do gross things when they are extremely and happily in love with a doe. For one, they, um, pee on their beards…and they jump around and stick their tongues out (while making a slight *grunting* sound)…I’m not sure I have ever seen a buck with its tongue *in* its mouth, now that I think about it.
But this goat, whom I shall call Romeo, Only wanted to talk to her, not do the business that we were paying for. And by ‘talk to her’, I mean, woo her, smile at her, pee for her, spit on her, lick her, and otherwise dance around her romantically. So after a while, Jake whined, “Well, I’d better help him.” You would not believe the reluctance in his voice. So with me holding Molly, and him, I’ll just say helping Romeo, I was thinking that this was getting a little on the embarrassing side of things. So I said so, “Wow, this is a little awkward,” looking at Jake. He laughed, a little on the nervous side, and replied, “Yeah, like Really awkward!”
Then Jake, mom and I all laughed. Hard. Then we also agreed, and thanked God that we aren’t goats!
Thank you Lord!!!

So any way, that’s what has happened today. My mother could more than likely tell this story better - I have tried. I hope you understand at least. =)
