Randomness

My Grandma came to visit recently. She always gets put to work when she visits us but in my defense I think she likes it. This time her assignment was to show me how to use a sewing pattern. She decided she should iron it first and asked to use my iron.
"Uh, sure I'll go get it"...after searching the house I found it in the shed in the backyard.
"You don't iron much do you," Grandma observes. We laughed. No, I guess I don't.

I flew on Delta Airlines to Alaska and found out that they now charge $5 for those plastic garbage type bags for car seats. I just decided to wash the car seat cover when I got home.
I think Jay Leno had a pretty good idea the other night...Start giving away free beer and charging to use the bathroom instead.

Are two year olds supposed to know and use the phrases "leave me alone" and "don't bother me"? Or how about "I'm mad at you- don't talk to me"-- Just wondering

Jessie Louise Isbister


Randy and Vicki walking Jessie as she tries to hold it together. We all thought she was going to pass out and take a mighty fall down those steps. With deep breaths and a nice slow pace she made it all the way to Denis without incident.

Denis, Jessie and the oh-so-cute Hannah

Jessie and Denis at the reception- getting ready to eat delicious food and dance the night away. Jessie had these adorable giant cupcakes decorated with pinwheels at every table (so her).

You just can't help but love her. She laughs easily, often, and much- which is probably my favorite of many wonderful qualities. Jessie is good at making friends and she is a true friend. She even had a friend travel all the way from Japan to Alaska to go to her wedding. The newest Mrs. Isbister is genuine and thoughtful and just plain cool! Don't we all love her?

Jessie has dreamed of and envisioned her wedding day for a long time. It was definitely a dream wedding. They held it in Talkeetna, Alaska at a Lodge overlooking the Susitna River. Mount McKinley was in the background rising up 20,000 feet about us. Congratulations Jessie and Denis!

I know that guy


I love the summer Olympics. We've really enjoyed watching so far, especially cheering on Michael Phelps and Shawn Johnson. Robert is trying to figure out what he could take up to be in the London Olympics in 2012.

I'm so excited to watch a former fellow Greenwave compete. Tune in on Monday the 18th to see Aarik Wilson in the Triple Jump. We thought we were hot stuff to win a state volleyball championship but to make it to the OLYMPICS just BLOWS MY MIND.
