Fun things at work

For work yesterday we made a bunch of appetizers for a party Robb is catering. That is my boss, anyway it was lots of fun. We made a lot of different kinds of deviled eggs. One was a lobster filled egg, and sun dried tomato egg, and the last, I don't know what you would call it. It had capers and some other things in it. It was a more traditional deviled egg. It was a pain peeling all those eggs but I end result was nice.
I want Doug to bring the kids for dinner tonight. Robb order so really nice tuna, and Doug loves seared tuna. I thought they could go get a christmas tree and then stop on the way home. I guess we will see. It is a fun weekend in Greybull, the holiday parade, and other things. A craft fair, and a basketball tournament. Doug is reffing a few games on saturday.
Kam had a good game yesterday. I think he had 8 points. But they lost to Powell. They have beat them one time this year.
I had 2 kids in the paper this week. Kam and Wes. It is fun to live in a small community.
Well I can't get the picture to be the right format. Have a great weekend.

Christmas shopping

I think I'm going to do most of my christmas shopping online this year. Crazy I know. We have Billings 130 miles away but I haven't made a big effort to get there. I got a cute star yesterday at the store on the corner, in Greybull. (I was to lazy to close the curtains, I hope you can see the picture.) I guess it is official I've lost the will to "drive to shop". Notice I didn't say "fly to shop" or "sit at the computer to shop". Doug we be glad to hear that.

I thought you went Pheasant hunting?

The guys went pheasant hunting on Saturday night and Chris found this. They where pretty excited about it.

This morning

Ren got the dirty plates out of the dishwasher so he could have a better look at them. It was cute, but as soon as I said "Go get the camera" he turned around and started saying cheese, cheese. He is to smart.
Kam must of still been in the shower. He takes his time getting ready. Wyatt didn't even have his hair combed yet. I hope he combed it before he went. Who am I kidding that kid is a perfectionest when it comes to hair and style. I wish some of his other brothers would care a little more.

Ren the bean bag hog!!

You can always tell the youngest. Ren is enjoying some hockey. Notice his finger on the channel changing button. Yes it is true he can change the channel and watch whatever he wants.

Rainy, lazy day

I didn't make it to the gym today, or even in the shower for that matter. I have been on the phone all morning. Oh and cleaning and laundry. It is raining outside and I didn't put the suburban in the garage so now it is really dirty. Doug and I worked on the yard yesterday and new leaves have taken the place of the old leaves today.
I can tell Wes is comfortable. Already pant less after getting home from school. Crazy kid. Doug is in Ten Sleep today checking on a bridge they are putting in. It needs to be replaced it is really small.
We made jerky yesterday. It is very time consuming. And the kid have already eaten all of it. I guess it was good. I better get moving. Erica

Drunk driver gets maximum sentence for killing worker I hope this works. My sister told me about a new story the fold Kollins story.

Kollin's Trial

I was looking for some new stories on the trial yesterday I found a few if you are interested.

http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/339067_hit10.htmle I guess there where lots of news people and newspapers there but Sara didn't want anyone talking to them. I totally understand that. You can find more information about the trial on the Seattle news channels.

Kam's great game

Kam had a great game against Worland last night. His coach has changed the lineup and put all the good players on the same team. Which is good because they can score but bad because the second team isn't near as good and loses the lead. Kam had 6 points which doesn't sound like a lot until the finial score 13 to 20. Not a lot of scoring in the 6th grade. It was fun.
Hope you have a good weekend and enjoy your day.

Looking through the camera

I'm looking though the camera to find something to post. Ren and I got the dishes and house work done and then went to the gym. The ladies love him, but I don't get my heart rate up very high before he comes to visit me. Kam has a game tonight and Doug is reffing. It should be a fun night. I made the best soup yesterday. It is at Suzanne's blog. Everybody loved it. I wish we would of had some left overs. Next time I will make a bigger batch.
Everyone in my family a traveling today. For Kollin's trial on friday in Seattle. Hope everything goes well for Sara. After the trial she is taking everyone to Kollin's favorite restaurant in Seattle.
Hope you have a good day.

Trip to Ten Sleep

We enjoyed a little basketball in Ten Sleep last night.
And for my birthday we stop in Worland and went to Pizza Hut. When we were seated the waiter informed us kids eat for free at the buffet tonight. So it was a nice birthday present. I don't think she knew what she was getting into. It was a fun night and Kam had a good game. Hope you all have a good day.
