Random - The Sustenance of our Being

Howdy folks. Just thought I would pop in and give you your daily 500 mg. of Random. This first picture was taken on the third of December, 2005. This was a great time in our lives (cough, cough) but  I still don't know why this picture has survived this long.

This picture was taken after our hike to Swift Creek Canyon. As you can tell, we are just enjoying life... and the nasty, little fruit flies that get everywhere.

During late summer, we made the trek to Yellowstone and Grand Teton Nat'l Parks. Here are a few pics that show us at some of the generic sites.

This summer, we (me, Sara, Ryan, Mom, Dad, and Lauren) completed the Star Valley Half Marathon. I had fun chatting with Sara the whole time, and burned a few calories. Afterwards, nobody could walk  or bend their legs without emitting a blood-curdling scream and shedding a few tears. Also, I just wanted to add that the meal right after the half-marathon was excellent. I had a pastrami hoagie, cheese tots, and a 48 oz. PB&C shake, all via the Red Baron.

I also decided to go into the shoe making business. The sandals I made were actually quite comfortable, but they couldn't be worn outside. They would be reduced to a pile of soaked cardboard and felt.

I also completed my Eagle Scout project over the summer. Here are a few pics of the tedious experience. Can't you just feel the camaraderie and teamwork flowing through our veins.

Also, during the summer, Cubby decided to dye her hair bright red. It was so red that even Clifford was jealous. And Gerard Way. Let's not ruin this blog by talking about him. Here is Cubby and Kiki and the Red Hair.

I also had a great (and by great, I mean awesome) suit jacket that made everyone else jealous. Here is me wearing it at my fall orchestra concert.

While we are talking about and looking at things that are a few months out-of-date, check out this hairdo.

Oh, haircuts. Don't you love them.

I also became a master fisherman over the summer, as you may already know. We could only take one picture of me holding the fish because holding up it's colossal weight was impossible for me to do again. You are witnessing a feat in this picture that was previously impossible for man and beast.

Here is a picture of us at Christmas dinner. No, I did not overeat on smokies.

We also had some of the family up for Christmas. Here are "the boys" playing with the castle.

Now I am leaving you with these randomosities to brew around in your brain for a few days. I can't leave you on a cute/cuddly note, though. That would be impossible for me. Here is one downside of my summer.

I could've had you watch the video, but that would just be heartless. 

Now I really must leave you for I hear mother calling me from the kitchen. I must bezounce, really. I am sorry. Just remember this. Random is good. It the sustenance of our being. But never more than 500 mg. If you do overdose, you do become a bit, well, random.
