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.

I guess I'm a Printmaker

 
This is Britt and I printing the last of the covers for our wedding invitations. The real project starts tomorrow when we have to screen print the letter for the 500 we plan to send out!!!

Name Search

Well, it is really late at nite and since I am not very tired I did an internet search of my name. Surprisingly, I ended up on some other bloggers pages. In addition to the Sojouner's Website (My Sponsor), I ended up on another runner's site. I also ended up on my buddy Brian's Blog. Who knows, maybe one day I will be famous.

Back in the Day...

 
Not really sure what year this pic was taken. It was probablly 1993, in any case, I was just getting pics ready for a wedding video that my cousin is putting together and came across this one.

For Real This Time

 
Well I originally proposed on Sept 9th, but due to some technical dificulty with the ring it was not done. It was finished on Oct 2nd and I took an unexpected nite off of work to suprise Britt. She had no idea I was coming or that the ring was even near being done. I proposed again in a much more private location at the Ampitheater on the USU Campus overlooking the city of Logan. I was very romantic!!!

Wasatch 100

 
This is Brian and I as we rolled up to Brighton. I paced him for just over twenty miles. We almost missed each other at the check point where I was to pace him. I heard he was dropping out so I left and by chance showed up later to chat with him and he was actually ready for me to pace him. If you couldn't tell I am the two on the left.

Fun & Games

 
Well, the engagement pics are done!!! We had a blast. It rained most of the time so our outfits lasted all of a few minutes and even after Britt pulled her hair back, it was water logged after only a few minutes. This was just before it started raining.

Pics Everywhere

 
We decided to take a picture in a booth at the Firehouse Restaurant in Logan. For some reason we could not stop laughing. We had the camera on timer and this is one that came out.

Roadside Treasures

 
Britt & I went on a drive the other day up Kraus Canyon in Vernal when we saw this abandoned cabin. We jumped out took some pics... this was one of our favorites.

Harper's Corner

 
On one of our many hikes we headed up to Harper's Corner overlooking Echo Park where the Green & Yampa Rivers come togehter. It was really a spectacular view.

Country Time Lemonade

 
I am not exactly certain why, but when I see this picture I think that it would be a good ad for Country Time Lemonade. Britt and I took this pic with a tripod and timer.

In Love

 
It's official. I'm in LOVE. Brittany & I met at Institute not too long ago. Not an institute, but the class at church!!!

Innagural Ride

 
Well I couldn't pedal my bike everywhere, so I opted for a scooter. Britt actually shouldn't be riding with me cuz I only have my permit, but you know me always living on the wild side. ;)

Oil Field Trash

 
This is what I look like on a near daily basis as I get off work.
