bentley and pumpkin

Well its about time that i post because i have been waitng for Jimmy Chris Bob to blog but he is a slacker.

Well Sat little Bentley got to come for a short visit. He got to ride Grandmas pumpkin, help papa feed apples to the horses, and feed the chickens. then we got to eat grandmas pork chops fresh french fries, well little B started out with a side order of crunch berries, then ate almost all the french fries, then went had dessert of fresh sliced peaches, I didnt know you could eat a whole bowl without taking a breath. the snot was dripping off his top lip, the peach juice was running down his chin,hands arms belly and i forgot how little kids eat.

I love fall the orchard and some one to enjoy it with.

DD layneee

Yesterday we got our work done and headed to firth to see the latest member of our family. As we got there Karisa was home alone up and around and doing really well.
She said at one time we could load up and go find Brent. (she just had a kid!!!)
I got to hold lanie and what a living doll. she is so precious , Long black hair and the longest fingers. My mom had the biggest hands and was so embarresd that all through high school she would try to hide them. Then she realized that heavenly father gave them to her to help other people. This morning i awoke to the D girl in my bed. her and i spent some time just getting to know her spirit, every move she made was so fun to watch. I am so glad she is here safe and sound and her mom is dong so well. Grandma P thinks keese will have them in the semi for the harvest. And Brent is so proud of the little girl that will be a big handfull but be his best freind in the whole world.
Im a pretty proud (Papa) myself. Patrice is staying for a few days and maybe by then she can get hudson to smile, (what a giggle puss) the other night when he came in and saw grandma parish. He was bouncing off the walls.

why I hate neighbors

Hello everyone. Setting here in my chair waiting to go hting, but nobody is at home, so i tried going to sleep but my arms and shoulders ache so bad. I finished my fifth beam at Delis's and it is raining so i decide d to see if i could blog without the meeky princess ( i miss that girl) Well you have all been home and seen the tree house next door. As i was sitting in the chair I looked out the open window and saw a sight that brought back alot of fond memories. (Kimmy and the prairredogs) al the sleep overs. dave beck our home teacher giving us the lesson in the tree house. The construction of the tree house and the geocache. Then you take a little twelve year old boy that his parents are divorced and he is staying at grandmas with nothing to do. I confronted him thrice and took the ladder down and asked if thingds wern't ok at home. he finally got the job done and i haven't seen him and the cousins since. Well we planted trees a few years back and by the time the grand kids are ready for one they will be big enough. (When Bentley gets brave enough to climb.) maybe they can help me build it. I hope things are good enough in your life that you don't have to tear somebody or something down.

I love my girls

It was a busy week, and instead of getting more done i ended up with more jobs. chad called and i met him a delis s patotoe packing shed , on the tracks going to grandpa's. they are shutting down in a couple of weeks and i have to have all the beams and posts ready to go in when they have all the old machinary out and support the roof and box room with out any posts in the middle. It could be a night mare but we will get it done.
I will allways appreciate all my little helpers with all the work we used to do. how about doing mellings chores and does anybody remember the spud cellars? dworshak school, unnumbered hand rail jobs. Nikkala on the punch, karisa on the track torch, hand torch and reamer. deidra welding pin caps and handrail, tameka the power hack saw , welding pin caps, painting and being my hay hauling driver. you girls will never know how much i appreciated your freindship and help.
I am so proud of each one of you and the beautifull women you've become, maybe because of our experiences you will be fantastic mothers and wives. I love you and i have a happy father's day every day ! love dad

THE BLUE GHETTO RIDES AGAIN

tonight i sluffed the cousins party and braden , tameka, and I went to the river, It was totally awesome just like glass and only one boat, alec helms and tyler seamons. wonder how they found our spot. I warmed the ole girl up and then we hit bugs smashing speeds. Tameka got on the wake board and did totally well. The only thing left is the after skiing party. Mom just went to bed and the kids ar being kids. I might have to put in some spark plugs and lube but we did forget to put in the plug , so we had to come out of the water and save our lives. the offer is out, if you want the blue ghetto, you have to take the junk.

time flys even if your not having fun

I have to apoligize to my fans, and especially chrissy jim bob. I think Im in his trash can. This last month has been wild and crazy. Work has been an adventure with more work to do and stuff than i have ever had to do .I have two high school kids working for me and thats a pain. (wish i had the old crew back that we busted butt then went water skiing, they were awesome.) I have to show them ever thing to do and every thing is different. I had them welding pin caps for two days, and then Jared Rhett Jensen came and took them all. It really deflated there ego s to see all the empty paint cans again.
Mom and i are headed to utah mon night , we have to be at the galvinizers and 700 am then pick up stair treads, then meet with the patent attorny at 2:00 get to the temple, then pick up the stuff at the galvinizers at 7;00 p m and then head home. this past week we were building the columns for franklin building and i told jason jones that i wanted an exact measurement so i could cut the 48 foot six inch pipe and get the bollards so i didnt have any waste in the material. long story short he got the old plans and figured a 2/12 pitch . after they were done and painted and deleveried ,I get a call they were all wrong it should have been2 1/2 on 12 pitch. I picked them up and brought them home and cut the bollards up for the 28 inch peices. Measure. cut, grind , fit up , weld, clean, then paint, load on the trailer and deliever. the next day I get a call, out of eight four were wrong, he had thought the left were rights and the rights were lefts. then i start the process all over again, ugh!! when i have so much to do i hate doing things over . DO IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME I got released from my eleven year old scouts acouple weeks ago. It was one job that i could be myself and the stories were new to the kids i only had them for a year, and they laughed at my jokes.
Mom has really been working hard in the yard, and is taking shape. im posting a picture of a pump. I dont know if you know the story. After my mission i visited betty and carol and there families in glenns ferry , as i was driving doen the road i spotted trach heap (being one to never miss an opportunity i spotted this pump in peices and found a cast iron pot, they went with me to california in 74 and hung in the newmans yard and came to Idaho in 76 . a couple of years ago we made a pond in the back yard, and i love the sound and the memories.
