Its all lead free and hand made. yes my hand did make this stuff we have been to a couple of show. we have done pretty well. So here is a glimpse at our fun stuff.

Susan G. Komen - Race for the Cure

Yesterday I joined 18 thousand of my friends for a great cause to support the fight against breast cancer.  It is very difficult to try and start running when 18 thousand people are packed into one city block, but it does show how many people support the cause, and it was a great experience.  Next Saturday Jess and I will be running for another great cause.  Please support the Brain Injury Association of Utah! My wife and I will be running for Charlie Cooper If he is not your reason, I'm sure you can find one! We will see you all next Saturday morning!!!

Don't ever give a 30 year old that does not have much to do a pink cape when he finishes a race.  He might get home and try to fly....... I am going to chalk this thought process up to the endorphins from the 5K

Windshield Wiper Embarrassment

As I was making my Saturday drive to greywhale in an amazing downpour this afternoon, it reminded me about how embarrassed ummmm...my wife...YEAH.....How embarrassed my wife gets when her windshield wipers are on.  I think she thinks that the faster the wipers go, the harder other people are laughing at her because of the insane speed at which they move back and forth.  It was a very difficult morning for me....errr I mean my wife, because I had to.....ummm SHE had to keep those wipers going a million miles an hour.....so embarrassing...... The rain can be such a hazard for driving conditions since it FORCES you to be embarrassed at times.  

Long Time No Blog........

It's been a lot easier to copy someone else's blog than to keep up on my own blog........But really nothing much exciting has happened in our lives......I cleaned up some beagle poo...that was a good day.....I need to post about "Pearl Jam Day"....This is a national holiday btw.......so please eagerly await that post!!!!

Happy Birthday Jo-Jo!

Today is my beautiful Mom's birthday!

My Mom is the best Mom in the whole world! She is also the funniest Mom in the world! She is so kind, caring, fun, goofy, and amazing. I'm so happy the Heavenly Father blessed me with a great Mom such as her. She is always there for me whenever I need her. I call my Mom all the time to ask about cooking, laundry, cleaning, crafts, and just about any other situation that might arise from my crazy life. Growing up I thought I was a Princess ( I still do), but my Mom will always be my Queen and I love her so much.

My Mom is such a great Grandma to 3 silly grand kids. She gives them anything they want and will help them with anything she needs. She loves them and they love her!

Jo loves nothing more than to vacation with her family. This past year we went on a ton of vacations! Mom is a great planner and makes sure that we have every dinner and activity planned. She loves to have fun and explorer new places. The best vacation we went on was a trip to Oregon where of course our motor home broke down. The sewer tank blew out and some guy was trying to replace a tire and Mom saw Sewer "stuff" running towards the guy. Mom kept putting paper towel on the ground to stop the "stuff" from touching the guy. (GROSS) Fell free to share your funniest Vacation moment with Jo Gines!

Mom is an amazing cook she has tried and tried to teach me, but it just goes in one ear and out the other. She is the Queen of killing I swear show her a stain and it stands no change against my Mother.Mom always did the not so fun stuff around the house, clean up puke, kill the spiders, fix my pain, cook, and try to make us kids help her clean the house. I hope one day I can be "a strong Edman Woman" like her.

My mom is so out going and loves life. She has been through so much and can give you advise on almost anything you ask her about. In High school my Mom was the rad Mom, everyone loved her and wanted to come play at my house because my Mom was cool. She fed our friends by the dozen I know most of my friends would come to my house just to eat and then leave. They would all call her Mama Jo and they thought of her as a 2ND Mom! Thanks for being such a cool Mom.
She has supported me in every play I have been in! She was at every play at woods cross every night and even backstage helping with food. She was at Rodgers when ever she could make it.

How is my Mom Super Woman? Thanks Mom for being so awesome with us as your 4 kids I don't know how you are still sane. Thanks for teaching me everything I know and for teaching my example. I know I can come to you whenever I need help, advise, or just need to talk to someone. You are truly the best! Happy Birthday, I LOVE YOU!!
