Helpful Thought

I had the hiccups today, and a patient in my office suggested to put a packet of sugar or a sugar cube on my tongue and let it melt, and my hiccups would go away. The cube wasn't even completley melted, and my hiccups were gone. Some of you may already know this, but it made me very excited and I wanted to share my knowledge with others!!!

Fun In St. George

I went down to St. George this past weekend with my sister Mallory and my son Alex. We went to visit my other sisters Hayley and Bethany, who both live there. It was nice getting out of the cold Salt Lake weather, to the beautiful St. George weather. Although the weekend wasn't too exciting, my son was able to play with his cousins, which for him makes for the best week ever! I was able to take some pictures of the kids playing with my cell phone. For those who don't know my family well, Hayley's kids are Tyson and Julianna. My son is Alex. Alex is the one in the blue shirt in the pictures.

Group hug!

Silly, silly kids

The kids will all be up to Salt Lake for Halloween, so I'm sure we'll be getting more pictures then!

The Car Incident

So I'm just minding my own business at work today, filling candy bowls and such. All of a sudden I hear this crash and the room shakes. My boss comes out of his office thinking I had fallen over or ran into a wall or something. We both ran into the back room of our office to find a car outside the window. Now you have to understand, our office is located a level below the parking lot as you'll see in the photos. A very sweet, but stupid old lady somehow jumped the curb in the parking lot, came down a little hill (somehow missing the trees) and ran smack into the building. My boss and I ran right outside when we saw her in the car. Luckily she was just fine. Can't quite say the same for our office. Here are some pictures....

This is from the outside, looking down at our window. Just right

of the window is where she hit.

This is from the parking lot. As you can see, she went right through

missing the tree and lightpost.

This is from inside after the car was removed. As you can see, the

wall is cracked and there are paint chips everywhere.

Sorry, this one is sideways. But you can see the car through the blinds.

So maybe my life is a little more exciting than I thought. Maybe there is hope for our blog!

A Few First Words...

We've decided to start a blog... obviously. Not sure that our life is interesting enough to have a blog, but at least this way we can pretend it is. It will also give us an excuse to post pictures of our cute kid so everyone can see. So here we go...
