The Awesome Arringtons: August 2008

Thursday, August 28, 2008

So if you haven't been able to get a hold of me.... this is why. We are remodeling our bathroom because the previous owners who "remodeled" it had no idea what they were doing and put it in completely wrong. Good thing I know an excellent tile setter.... Shane I am talking about you.

UP UP AND AWAY!!!!

So I have a question for everyone... doesn't Paige look way too small to be sitting up already? I think she does. I wonder if it is because Eli wants her to do everything fast so he can have someone to play with! Well I can't believe she can sit up and now I am scared to see when she starts crawling!

My dad.... What a guy!

My dad is so wonderful. A lot of people don't know this side about him, but he loves to help out people in need. He has done countless things for the MDA and always will volunteer to help out at summer camps. This was one of those times where he helped out again.

This teen wasn't even supposed to be alive and he is now 18. He was born with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. He has been collecting firefighter and police patches since he was 6. He now has over 15,000 patches and the LDS humanitarian aid is making a huge banner to display for him. My dad set up picking him up in the fire truck because Andy ( the teen) thinks that fire fighters and policemen are his heros. In all reality Andy is my dads.

Andy wants the banner to go across the United States to earn money for burn camps and children in need. Wow, what an amazing guy. My dad was so excited to go and meet Andy and I will always remember my dad helping those in need.

I'll get you Jenilyn!

I have been tagged by my sister Jenilyn

THE RULES

1. Post these rules.

2. Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours.

3. Tag 6 fellow bloggers by linking them.

There are a lot of unspectacular things about my life so to just narrow it down to 6 is going to be difficult. Well... hear we go!

#1- I have a phobia of eating turkey... yes turkey. I must have hated Thanksgiving as a kid or something.

#2- In my lifetime I hope to go skydiving, run a marathon, and donate 1,000 dollars to a charity.

#3- If you have read the Twilight series you will understand this one... I PREFER WEREWOLVES. There is something creepy about someone without a heartbeat.

#4- I am addicted to Rockstars! No not the ones in a band... the drink. Guava is my favorite, but I am not going to turn down a regular one either.

#5- I can't stand driving in Utah! People are in such a big hurry to get to where they are going that they will be jerks to whoever else is on the road.... man.... if I am already complaining about people driving, what am I going to do when I am old and have nothing better to do with my time.

#6- Last but not least.... If I were an animal I would probably be a chimpanzee... those monkeys are freaking hilarious. they look like they have such a good time. How could you not want to be one.

Well there you have it... pretty unspectacular huh. Well my pepes are going to be
