Evel Knievel Has Died Today

"The American Icon" besides the Statue of Liberty (What is her real name anyways?) was the biggest nut case but also lived his fears by doing amazing stunts. We will miss your insane character but wish you the best of luck in paradise. So long Evel!

Question?

Do you ever wonder what made him think so hard!

SLURPEE TIME!!!!!!

Ammon and his sweet slumber...

I wish that I can just look and feel this peaceful when I sleep. Actually when I sleep sometimes I sleep with my arm above my head. Funny huh...Like father like son.

Looking back on the Memories...Part 8 "The hottest couple on earth"

This is in the winter (I think) of '06. I am so grateful for my wife and everything that she has done for me and our family. I truly do not have one complaint in her and our marriage. She is absolutely a blessing in my life!

Looking back on the Memories...Part 7

"My Girls"! Are they not the most beautiful creations that our Heavenly Father has created?

Looking back on the Memories...Part 6

I just had to place these two pictures together. Ammon just looks silly cross-eyed and this isn't a normal look...just to let you know. And the other of course this is when he was just a few minutes old. Isn't he handsome!

Looking back on the Memories...Part 5

These are pictures of Halloween from last year '06. Aurianna was Snow White and Aniston was a cat. They sure did miss going with Bryce and Charla trick-or-treating. But they understood the circumstances that has come about. They still had fun on the truck-or-treating at the church.

Looking back on the Memories...Part 4

Being Loved from one another is one of the most wonderful gifts that each of them give to each other every day. Sometimes love taps count as hugs bet still the same, we are grateful for their love for each other and for Shannon and I.

Looking back on the Memories...Part 3

Of course these are different time frames when the pictures were taken but Aniston has grown so much the past (almost)3 years.

Looking back on the Memories...Part 2

Isn't Auri just the coolest looking cat on the block?

Looking Back on the Memories... Part 1

Shrek the Halls

Wednesday Nov. 28th at 8/7c "Shrek the Halls" don't forget!!!!!

The half-hour tv show will feature Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz and Antonio Banderas reprising their roles from the theatrical feature films. Stephen McPherson, president of ABC Entertainment, said "Family classics are a cornerstone of our brand, and Shrek The Halls will provide warm memories year-after-year, and be a great addition to our library of holiday favorites such as Santa Claus is Comin' to Town and A Charlie Brown Christmas". Jeffrey Katzenberg, CEO of DreamWorks Animation, added "The time has come to celebrate the joys of the holiday season with Shrek and his family, and see how Christmas would play out in his world.

Shrek the Halls follows a natural storytelling path for us, and we're so happy to be partnered with ABC in expanding the world of Shrek into the television arena". The special will be directed by Gary Trousdale (Beauty and the Beast) and produced by Teresa Cheng (Madagascar) and Gina Shay (The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie).

Shrek Goes Fourth (Shrek 4)

Dreamworks is testing the audience on how far they can push Shrek. There is supposed to be around 5 Shreks according to Dreamworks. The story was created in depth for a 5 part series. The next Shrek is called Shrek Goes Fourth and it is directed by Mike Mitchell. The film is in pre-production and is scheduled to be released in 2010!

The full cast is back Cameron Diaz, Eddie Murphy, Antonio Banderas and Mike Myers thank heavens. With out them it wouldn't be the same. I will try to do some more research on Shrek, but until then keep an eye out for Shrek the Third.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

There isn't a plot of the story that George Lucas has revealed yet so the anticipation of the plot still exhilarating. I am very excited that George Lucas decided to revisit the Trilogy to add another to the mix. I am still upset that Sean wasn't able to come back but I do respect his decision to stay retired. Check out the website there are some videos of what is going on about the film. Stay tuned for more Harrison Ford!!!!

Daddy and Ammon dreaming together!

This was the attempt of my wonderful and whimsical wife trying to record me snoring. First I need to say that I do not snore, and secondly if I do it is only because I am extremely exhausted! Thank goodness that she didn't know how to properly handle a camera recording aspect of the device. But she did manage to take my son and I sleeping together. Can you see the resemblance between the handsome looks?

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor

Director Rob Cohen is making the Mummy 3. In the Far East, trouble-seeking father-and-son duo Rick (Fraser) and Alex O'Connell (Ford) unearth the mummy of the first Emperor of Qin (Li) -- a shape-shifting entity who was cursed by a wizard (Yeoh) centuries ago. I just stumbled across this site on how Rob is created the movie and kind of doing a day to day documentary of the film "on location". The Mummy 3 and also just to note Digital Domain is doing the visual effects of the film. This is the same company that did 1/4 of the effects on transformers.

Another Ammon Picture....

Finally sound asleep! Shhhhhhh...he is hunting "Auri's".

Shannon and Ammon Inseparable!

I love my beautiful wife and our new addition to the family.Admire and try not to slobber over the beauty.

"Toujours Tingo" by Adam Jacot de Boinod

While I was traveling to Channel 8 I was listening to a program on news radio about this guy who read over 600 dictionaries to find the funniest, weirdest words he can find. I was thinking the same thing..."Does this guy have a life?" Well some of the words that he came across was just fascinating.

He gets these words from every culture and region all around the world. I placed him in my books links and also my other blogs. Check him out if you have time.here is his blog where he talks about the words that he has found and also his book that he has published.

Beowulf...

Ever since I purchase a 1913 version of beowulf, I was waiting for somebody (a decent director) to make a film of it. And finally it has arrived. Robert Zemeckis has done such films as Monster House, What Lies beneath and Death Becomes Her just to name a few. I am really excited to see the film. Check out the website it is fantastic!

Aniston's New Dress!!!!!!

She looked so beautiful that I had to take a picture and gloat about how my wife and I make such beautiful girls!

Halloween 07 Princesses

Here are both of our princesses ready to go trick-or-treating!


Auri was dressed up as Cinderella.


Ani was dressed up as Aurora.

Both had a blast on Halloween night. We did the trunk-or-treating at the Palo Verde Chapel. And then we went to Aunt Deb's house to see her and show off our beautiful Princesses. And then we headed over to Mike's house (Mike Conrad) and he set up a small haunted house deal and scared the girls. They wouldn't stop crying, they wanted to go home, NOW! While Mike carried Auri into the van she claimed that Mike will never marry her! (Where that came from I don't know?!?) We had a blast that night. We are so glad that we have such wonderful friends and family that can keep our fun clean and memorable.
