3 Year Old Knock Knock Joke


I had to post a funny joke Alexis made up today! She asked my mom if she knew any jokes and then my mom asked Alexis if she would tell a joke.

- "Knock Knock" (grandma)


-"Who's there?" (Alexis)


-"Jimmy and Joe" (Grandma)


-"Jimmy and Joe who?" (Alexis)


-"Put your arms around my neck Jimmy a Kiss and let's Joe" (Grandma)


-"I know a joke!" (Alexis)


-"Ok, tell it to me" (Grandma)


-"Put your arms around my nose and lets Jim!" (she throws her thumb back like a hitch-hiker) (Alexis)


It was her first real made up joke. It was really great! I loved it. I laughed and laughed.

Balloon Festival

Not much new going on around here. We've been having fun watching the Olympics and going to the Balloon Festival. I've been helping my mom to get ready for the new school year. (She is a kindergarten teacher). Shaun went out to Nebraska for yet another interview. It feels like our lives are kindof on hold right now playing the waiting game with companies. Sometimes it takes forever for them to consult. We are hoping for a full time position soon! The Balloon Festival was so much fun. We went at night and watched them light the balloons with an accompying live music band. It was beautiful! They were so colorful and there was a full moon. Lately I've been experimenting with digital scrapbooking it has been really fun!

Just another crazy busy week!

So it's been another crazy busy week. Shaun had a second interview with a company here in Utah and we are waiting to hear back hopefully by tommorrow especially because he is supposed to fly out to Nebraska for a second interview with another company this Thursday! This interview job stuff can be so stressfull! All in all we have been enjoying our summer and the fun times we are spending with family. We have been mountain biking quite a bit wich has been great excercise and great fun. We also had a family reunion for my family (maiden name Hurst).
It was really neat to see some old pictures and movies of my grandparents who passed away in 1999 a little over a month apart. I was able to go to a temple session with alot of my family members. . It was such a great feeling to be in the temple and think of my grandparents looking down and seeing their family in the temple together. We shared memories at a girls luncheon of my grandma shelling peas, cooking for family patio parties, and sewing. My grandparents mean so much to me and I feel very honored to be a part of their family. Other activities we've been up to are going to Roy Days, trimming trees, weeding, painting the garage door, painting the front doors to the house, mountain biking, sewing, and cooking. This week we have an Olympic party at my sisters house and another family party for my mom's side (The Winwards). Hopefully the next time I post we will have a new job!
