Coming June 18th...

For those that can't make out the picture and for those of you who do not follow my sister's blog. Brittany is Pregnant! Her family found out a few weeks back as she was stricken with morning sickness the three days we went to visit. As for my parents we took this picture and sent it priority mail, with nothing else enclosed. You should have heard my mom's voicemail!

As for the baby, we know rather little as yesterday was our first doctor's appointmtent. We do know that we are estatic! How Blessed we are and how we can't wait for this summer!!!

Lubbock Christian, Here We Come...

We found out this morning that I was accepted at Lubbock Christian University to start my Master's in Divinty in order to become a Navy Chaplain. Britt & I are so excited that we have made a step in that direction. We will actually be moving to Vernal for a time, where I will start my master's program online and Britt will teach school. So it's more like Vernal, here we come.

Popper's Wall

Brit's Dad did quite a bit of consturction work back in the day. One of the last projects he did was this wall on the way to Flaming Gorge.

A Tomato Heart

Found this in our garden a few weeks back. We LOVE Tomatoes!!!

Bear 100

Well, to make a long story short, I did pace some one at the Bear 100. Rather than pacing my buddy Brian, I paced Davey Crocket. On my watch (clockwise from the top left) The Date, Calories Burned, Time Elapsed, and Distance.

Our First Harvest!!!

Well here is the first fruits (or rather vegatables) of our graden.

It's a Spider

 
Well to start of our road trip to VA, we got to Vernal at 2 AM. Upon arrival we heard some water leaking, come to find out there was a pipe that had leaked over two feet of water into the old cellar. There were spiders,a ton of water, all in a little space. Good thing I have a little plumber gene in me. Thanks Dad.

Birch Creek

 
The is the way down after going up Smithfield Dry.

Smithfield Dry Canyon

 
Went on a early morning run, just like most things, the picture doesn't do it justice.

Take Me Out to the Ball Game

Went to a Double Header with fireworks along with Meesh and her folks. The games struggled, I thinke the #4 batter from the Bee's was sub .300.

Squaw Peak - Year of the Mud

Well different years have been known for different things, but this year certainly was muddy. Took me two hours longer than last to get over the finish, but it was fun. I love running in the mud!!!

The Overlook

The day before the Squaw Peak 50, Britt and I, went to the Squaw Peak Overlook to check out the view of Provo & Orem. Sure was a nice day.

Squaw Peak 50

This weekend is the Squaw Peak 50 which means Britt & I will be in Provo. It starts and finishes in Vivian Park, I will be coming across the finish line sometime between 3 - 5 PM. Kind of hard to pinpoint exactly when I will finish but you can check www.squawpeak50.com for live updates.

Homemade Ice Cream Cake

 
After fininding out how expensive an ice cream cake was, Britt decided to make me one!!! We had another couple over to celebrate my birthday and they could not get enough!!!

Little Sprouts

 

Here is the begining of Our Little Garden.

BFA SHOW

This is one of Britt's prints that will be in this year's Bachelor of Fine Art Show her in Logan this weekend. Any of you that want to come see more of her work, give us a call.

PS Don't be fooled by the pic, it is actually 26"X38".

Not Meant to Be...

Well as I said on Monday, I was planning on running 50 miles on Sat. Sadly, I was unable to finish the race. I dropped at 20+ miles due to some complications. None of them related to me being in the hospital on the Thursday before the race or the Sunday after!!! All is well now and I have my eyes set on my next 50 in June down in Provo.

If the Bowl Fits...

...wear it!!!

Our New Niece

The is our new niece, Ruby May. We went up to Burley the weekend after she was born.

Our New Truck

This is our new truck!!! JK!!! This is a truck that was left out by the ranch on Antelope Island, we just thought that it looked cool.

DNF

This is my first DNF, or in other words the first race that Did Not Finish!!! Sad Day, but I was just too dehydrated from being sick earlier in the week. I was also kind of achy before I was 10 miles into the race. This is a pic that Britt took at the start.

Antelope Island Ultra - This Weekend!!!

This Sat Morning @ 6 AA, I am jump starting my season with a nice, easy 50 mile jaunt around Antelope Island in the Great Salt Lake. For those of you that want to come watch be sure and e-mail me or visit http://www.buffalorun.org/ for more info.

Minnie Love

My nephew, Emi with Minnie Mouse at Disney Land.

Which Clock Are You???

The big clock is us, here in Utah. The bottom left is Eastern Time for all the fam in VA. The top left is Central Time for those in TX and IL. The bottom right is for Japan. The top right is still up for grabs. So if you are family or friend and aren't in a named time zone let us know!!!

Boardin' Ol Main

The funds have been low this year and I haven't had the equipment for back country boarding, so I strapped in and headed down Ol Main one the west side of USU Campus. It had been pretty beaten up by sleds, but it was still fun.

Happy B-Day Gordon

Our Nephew, Gordon, and the dog my mom mailed him for his B-day. I am pretty sure she mailed him just like that...yeah, no box!!!

the In-Laws

The pic is kind of blurry, but here is my father-in-law with his 8 daughters!!!

History Buffs

For all those History Buffs out there, this sign in Lexington, VA, should be pretty funny!!! If you don't know why... do a google search on the date.

the decorations

Obviously we did not leave them all on one table but for all those that were not there, these are the decorations that Britt designed. Cool, huh!?!??!

... off into the sunset

 
...and they lived Happily ever after. Britt, Tommy, and their trusty camel!!!

The Edible Tree

 
Not something I would try, but it didn't seem to stop my little nephew.

My Cute Parents

 
This was taken back in 1999, just before I left on my mission. I just really like this one!!!

In the Begining...

 
Well I moved into the apartment where Britt and I will be living in once we are married. Like all apartments we are amking it our own. I decided to start with the view from our front door. We had an army crate, some vases, dried out plants and some old shoes. There was something missing, so I added the sage purse and the shoe brush. The part I like the most is that Britt made the vases!!!

Grandma Robertson

 
Just thought it would be cool to show an old pic of my grandma!

Little Britt

I figured since I was putting pics of me on here I should at least throw one up her of my bride to be. We are 12 days and counting down.

Super Siblings

I realize that in addition to Liz & Lin, I have three amazing siblings. In any case I thought that this was a cute picture.

I'm Blue...

Many of you have not seen many of my pre-mission pictures, but I was little punk.

Little Tommy

Hard Lessons Learned

Well as some of you know, I was taken to court after a rather large ordeal with a jeweler in Vernal. I will not go into details as to all that happened but I learned the following things:
- Verbal Agreements are binding contracts in Utah
- Whenever you purchase a large ticket item especially if that it includes any type of service an you make any type of prepayment or deposit be sure to get an itemized receipt

9 hours later

 
Well this is nearing the end of our 9 hour adventure, screen printing our own invitations. We had all sorts of setbacks from ghost prints to bad screens, but they're done!!! They look really good and will end up in your mail baoxes here in a few weeks!!!

Sneak Peak

 
Here is a peak of the inside of our invitations.
