Making Faces

I miss the kids and Jamie since I have been away for a week and a half now. Last night I woke myself from a dream where I was making faces with Emesha. I would wink and she would wink; I would poke my cheeks and she would poke her cheeks; I pulled my nose up, she pulled her nose up. When I woke I was sticking my tongue out, so I must have been playing along while I slept. Aiden will not play that game with me as much as Emesha, but I do miss the kids and Jamie.

Snapfish.com

So recenly Jamie has had a fear of loosing her mememory or at least the computer's mememory. Every picture we have ever taken of the kids sits on the Hard Drive on our home computer. Before Emesha was born we printed some of them, but not many. So now there are thousands of pictures on there. Well printing these dang pictures is not cheap. I think Sams or Costco is 18 cents a piece! quick math... .18 x 1000 = way to much for a picture in my mind! Now comes Snapfish... 8 cent photos!! So Jamie had me load a DVD full of all the 'good' pictures (so many garbage shots are taken with didgital cameras) and send it to them to load. We then were able to get a large box full of 1000 pictures mailed to our door. They offer matte or glossy finish and if we want to go back and order bigger or photos for frames, they are all online ready for it. I just had to let everyone know how easy it was!

Alone in Texas

Well, I dropped the kids and wife off in Phoenix after a short vacation with them, and now I am alone in Texas for a week. Last night I went with some others from the elders quorum and helped a less active family pick peaches from their orchard. I think he has about 500 trees and it is the end of the season. I ate a few of the peaches as we picked and they were very good. We shall see how time gets filled... Honey do's or the gym or sleep? I forced myself to sleep in until 9 today. I guess Mesha was sick last night in phoenix though. Poor girl was throwing up and now is sleeping some more. I miss the family and it will be nice to see them again in a week.
