" Acentunios, Rien!" "SCHNELL!!!" "Ned Links!!!" It's the Nazi guy from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade!

A Hero for the ages


Indiana Jones. Who ever would've thought that the hero of the U.S. during the pre U.S. entry into World War II could've been an archeologist and college proffesor. Who was it that stopped the Nazi regime from having the all powerful ark? Who was it that stopped the evil trader Walter Donovan from taking the Holy Grail all to himself. Who is the man who provided so many cheesy lines for us like "Nice try Lowcha." to his awesome hard core lines like, "I TOLD YOU...(Machine Gun Fires) Don't call me junior."

But what truly makes a hero? Is it his super powers or his ability to fly? No, a true hero is a man who wears a worn out leather jacket, a brown hat and carries a whip at his side. The true and only true hero is the legendary......INDIANA JONES!!!

A Tribute to Pops


In honor of Father's Day I just wanted to share some memories of my favorite dad. I can always remember how fun he was (and still is). I have this really sweet memory of dad telling us stories at night time that he made up. We would pile onto the bed and listen to what crazy storyline he would create. He would do all the voices, like Herbert. I just thought he was the greatest and that he knew and could do everything. Dad brought so much imagination and fun into our childhood and I just want to tell you, Dad, that I love you and you are the greatest dad!


What are your favorite memories or things about dad?

Somewhere Over . . . in England



I tear up every time I watch this video. She's so humble and innocent and her pitch is perfect. I'm your biggest fan, Conny!

Only in Cowboy Country


When we were traveling through Evanston, WY on our way home from visiting Heather we stopped at McDonald's. It was actually the nicest McDonald's I have ever seen (and we have seen a lot in the past few weeks). There were fountains on the walls and HD tvs in the bathrooms and in the restaurant. The children's play place was so clean and there were all of these little tables that had saddles for chairs. I really looked like an out-of-towner when I took this picture, but I couldn't help it. It was so cute!
