Back in the Saddle?

.: (You really should read this first!) :.

Well it's been quite a while since I have blogged. I have been quite the busy body.
With moving into the house, picking up my wife from Minnesota, missing the 35W bridge collapse, getting a new Dog, preparing my response in preparation for a Family court hearing on the 15th, working in the yard and in the garage, etc I haven't had much time to blog.

BTW - pray for me in regards to the children and my custody of them. Pray that I will get full custody or at least that I will retain the custody I already have of them.

Pray for the Judge as well. Her name is Karen Potts.

Jen and Kendall went horseback riding for their birthday. They had fun, I know because Kendall couldn't stop talking about how fun it was.

So..... I spoke in church today! Well actually I didn't have much to say or at least the time to say it. It never fails, Jen insists that I write a long talk so that I can cover for the time she leaves me with, but the thing is, I never have more than 5 mins to talk. I don't mind.

Jen's talk was on obedience.
My talk was on suffering and why we have it.

It went well.


Love you all!!! Come out and visit us sometime.

At our Enrichment we had a "Celebrate Her" night. It included tables to display our talents and then a talent show. A group of us got together and performed Dancing Queen like in Mama Mia. We had a great time!! Watch, laugh, and enjoy!! I am the one in the blue, silver and fringe (if you ask Greg, I looked like Janice from the Muppets). Mom is the Dancing Queen in the chair in the front. I love my peeps! You guys ROCK!! Photo and video editing at www.OneTrueMedia.com

.: (You really should read this first!) :. With the end of my pregnancy drawing near I wanted some pictures taken so that I could remember my belly in all its glory. Now, I know that I am huge....but I don't think I realized how huge I was until I saw the pics. See Andie - I promised!! Now, these have not been touched by Greg's handy dandy program that makes all bad things disappear - hence the reason my arms are still fat. :-) But this is me in all my glory. Everyone is amazed that I am willing to post them... but I actually think it is amazing what the body does when you are pregnant and I think it is fun to look at them. I am scheduled to be induced next Wednesday, June 11 th . So I am glad we were able to get the pictures taken before then. I saw a picture of a pregnant belly with a child's hand on it and tried to duplicate it. Kendall was sleeping so there are only 4 of the children behind me. Greg is going to touch this one up, focus more on the belly and

Gerald Shepardson has passed away.

Jennifer is a bit preoccupied with assisting her sister with the formalities of the passing of a loved one, so I hope I don't do any disservice to his memory by writing this blog post. Gerald, Gerry, or Papa Bear as Jennifer lovingly called him, is Jennifer's father. I believe he passed away on June 24th, 2008. He was 80. Grandpa Shepardson was a very talented man, a concert-level pianist and very intelligent. He did a wonderful job of preparing Jennifer to marry me, because he loved music, photography, thrift shopping, "STUFF", dry humor, bad puns, reading, sharing the knowledge of his passions, and sarcasm. I love him and was sad to hear of his passing. I'm not sure if I expressed to Jennifer my admiration for her father, but I certainly hope she knows that I have always felt him to be a kindred spirit from the day I met him face to face. We love you Papa Bear! You will be missed.
