pre-birthday

Mutti & Gogo came out this morning to pre-celebrate Parker's birthday because Mutti has to work Tuesday. She brought a cake and a giant frisbee.

Cloudy Day

I LOVE cloudy days. Today was beautiful. I had to get out and shoot some pictures.
I'll probably put this shot on my desktop. I can't decide which I like more so I'm showing both versions. Feel free to let me know what you think.

Valentine's Day

Before breakfast we played with the kids and Parker's action figures.



Becky made crepes that we filled with creamy delicious Nutella, lots of it.

This is how they make Nutella crepes at IHOP.

This is how to make a real Nutella crepe. For best results, to really taste the chocolatey goodness, you should apply 2-3 coats of Nutella.











After breakfast we took the kids to go see Ink Heart. It was a good movie. The kids loved it.

Poster Day

My computer is still down after crashing yesterday, so I spent the day changing out posters in the Jordan Commons office tower and at the baseball stadium. After taking down the Mayan posters in the office tower (finally) I had lunch with Becky at noodles & company. It was great.
I had the whole grain tuscan linguine with shrimp.




Afterwards I met up with Thomas & Josh and we drove out to the stadium to change the posters on display.

These U23D posters are EVERYWHERE! Does it ever end? This is for Sean, he needs to find closure and move on to other IMAX movies.



Our next stop was to pick up some signs for $100.
This is what happens when you leave Thomas and Josh in your car with your camera.

After everything was taken care of the three of us walked over to Target. Josh wanted some Legos.



Then we bought the last six packs of Indiana Jones Masterpieces cards. Now we both have the complete set. Yeah, we're geeks.









I also bought a Marzipan Ritter Sport, one of my favorite kinds of chocolate from Germany.
Luft-Schokolade is #1.

The baby is a...

We had a great evening and I'll post some more photos... soon.

The News

It snowed yesterday and this morning. It was cold.


In the evening Becky & I watched Fringe and then the News at 9pm.
Jodi Saeland reported on the weather, which was very informative.


As far as our economy goes, the world's largest retailer, WAL-MART, announced that it will build fewer stores in 2009 and stop selling Cheetos. They've decided to roll back until 2010 when they will roll forward and build four Wal-Marts per five square miles across the United States, out of every four stores one will be a Super Center.

Then there was more talk about stimulation, particularly in Utah.

Even Wyatt Earp says Utah isn't getting enough stimulation.

You have any good ideas for this year?

Desktop for Thomas

Hey Thomas, I made you something to add to your collection of JG desktops.



I made this for Sean and now I'm invited to the premiere IMAX screening of TRANSFORMERS: Revenge of the Fallen!

Burrito & Rogue Ponies

Had to drive out to the Megaplex 20 today to get some new photos for the food court menu signs. Like this delicious looking burrito.


After that I hung out with Thomas for a while. In his office he has a shelf with various toys, some of which have no doubt been influenced by the dark side of Darth Maul.
