Attention everyone, attention. Ryan is blogging again!!! Yes, it is true. He has been resurrected and is back in the blogging world. I think this deserves a round of applause! The only down side to all of this is that I had BIG intentions of discussing his current "single" situation with all of you, but I guess we will just have to let him participate.
Well, since we are now on that topic...lets discuss. Ryan, anything to say about that? Besides your current state of jaw clenching, of course! Ha!

We're Out On A Limb
Our Little Family
- -KJ
- Kevin and I were set up my senior year of high school, shortly after he had returned home from his mission. I think true love began to blossom the night he took me to my Senior Prom! Just kidding! We had a great friendship that turned into a long distance relationship that turned into true love. We were married October 23, 1999 in the Las Vegas Temple. We waited 3 1/2 years before we had our handsome little devil, Spencer. He is a good little boy, but knows how to work it when he wants something. Miss Olivia Lauren came three years later, and is so much fun. She LOVES her big brother, and she is a party animal! Life couldn't get any better than this. I love my family!

You Should Write That Down!
- Jan 22, 2009: Olivia has a cold, and went into the kitchen to grab a big plastic bowl. She thinks she has to cough into the bowl everytime. I guess I should just be grateful she is trying to be prepared.
- 2008: Spencer has, for the last year or so, been under the assumption that he is a scientific genius. He knows how all things are and came to be. Just ask him anything, and he'll tell you.
- Oct 13, 2008: Olivia said she was "two of a half." Meaning 2 1/2 of course. It made me smile.
- July 7, 2008: Spencer said, "I mess it, YOU clean it!" Um, EXCUSE ME!!! No he didn't!
- June 25 2008: Spencer quoted a line from The Bee Movie, and had an accent just like Jerry Seinfeld. I was dying!!!
- June 2008: Can someone teach my child to just talk? She screams everything! ;)
- May 3008: One of my favorite things about Olivia lately is that she has an "east coast" accent". So funny. My fave is when she says, "Close the dooah (door)."
- April 14, 2008: Spencer blew his first bubble with gum!
- November 3, 2007: Spencer recited the ENTIRE Pledge of Alliegence! I was so pleased! I am glad to know he is paying attention in school. Also, Spencer split his head open AGAIN. He had to get three stitches.
- November 2, 2007: Olivia now says NO WAY! It was cute at first, but NOT anymore!!! I also love the way she says breakfast. She says "buckus."
- October 29, 2007: Spencer learned how to snap his fingers!
- October 17, 2007: Olivia learned how to do PERFECT sommersaults! It is so funny to watch her! She knows she is pretty impressive!
- October 13, 2007: Aunt Aleda gave Spencer a little guitar from Mexico. He was so excited, and the whole way to lunch he played songs in the car. Some of the words to one of his songs were, "You have your good intentions, but everything goes wrong." What!!! Is there a 40 year old trapped in a 4 year old body?
- October 10, 2007: We were driving down to Vegas and it was night time. Spencer was looking out the window and said, "Mom, I can see a caculation!" He meant a constilation. So cute!
- October 8, 2007: Olivia wore her first night gown. She loves it! Did I mention she is talking like crazy! She loves to say "All done!"
- October 5, 2007: Spencer heard me say Olivia, and I really pronounced the 'O'. He then told me her name wasn't O-livia, it was A-livia and that her name didn't start with an 'O'. He was shocked when I told him it in fact started with an 'O'. He asked me why we just decided that and that we should have decided that when we were at the hospital. Hee hee! I was dying!
- August 12, 2007: Olivia is literally repeating everything you say to her! I better be careful!
- August 5, 2007: I noticed that Spencer cut his own hair today. He did it while Kevin and I were in Vegas, and he was staying with Bree and Eric. He tried to blame it on Bree! What a turd!
- July 23, 2007: Olivia has learned to say "poo poo" today, and already thinks it is a funny word. It doesn't help that I laugh everytime she starts laughing! Also, Spencer said today that when he grows up he wants to be a pilot. I can't wait to hear what it will be next week!
- July 1, 2007: Spencer has noticed black people and started asking questions. I just let him know that everyone has a different color of skin but it doesn't make us different inside, and we are all Heavenly Fathers childern. He also noticed that a doctor he went and saw had absolutely NO hair. I was panicing the whole appointment that he would say something about it. Thankfully it wasn't until we got into the car!
- June 25, 2007: Olivia puts her sandals on and they were even on the right feet!
- May 30, 2007: Olivia learns to make a buck tooth fishy face. So funny! It is the best when she sucks in and makes a sucking noise! She can also make a crazy grunting noise.
- May 22, 2007: I caught Spencer and his friend Isaac mooning eachother in Isaac's clubhouse. Funny, but he got in a little trouble, kind of!
- May 17, 2007: Olivia knows a pretty good handful of words, but as of the last two weeks or so she has only been saying "daddy." Everyone and everything is daddy. Can you guess who her favorite is?
- May 10, 2007: Spencer started soccer
- May 7, 2007: Olivia gives high (and low) fives.
- May 1, 2007: I forgot to say that she points to her eyes, nose, ears, mouth, and tummy too!
- April 30, 2007: Olivia has been dancing and kissing! She can also go down the stairs now!!! Another thing that she has been doing for a while, that I love, is sitting on her bumper pad like a bench. She is like that everytime I go in to get her.
- April 15, 2007: Olivia learns how to fold her arms. I love it!
- April 10, 2007: This is gross, but has to be written! Spencer had diareha and he described it this way, "My bum popped and then there was dirty water." Nasty!
- April 8, 2007: Olivia eats kitty food! I actually heard her say "Mmmm!"
- April 4, 2007: Spencer learns how to wink ;)! Sooo cute!
- April 3, 2007: Olivia says "Uh oh!" Also, Spencer has a major freak out because I wouldn't watch him pee! When I finally gave in he didn't want me in the bathroom.
- March 31, 2007: Olivia learns to get off the couch, the right way!
- March 28, 2007: Olivia jumps
- March 25 & 26, 2007: I told Spencer to use his brain. He told me he didn't have one. The next day I made a wrong turn and said, "Oh no!" When he asked what was wrong I told him I wasn't using my brain. He said, "That happens to me sometimes too."
- March 24, 2007: Spencer gets EVERYTHING except his mattress taken out of his room for being so naughty!
- March 18, 2007: Olivia discovers her shadow!
- March 17, 2007: I told Spencer that we were going somewhere with Uncle Garrett and Aunt Nicole. He said "like on a cruise?" Too bad it was just to dinner!
- March 7, 2007: Olivia learns to drink out of a straw
- Feb. 12, 2007: Olivia learns to walk!

I was totally going to do this...but I didn't! hehe
Just leave him alone..."Let a playa play."
playa/menace to society...same diff, no?
;) I keed...I think.
yippee! Happy late B-day btw. How was the George?
About Freakin time!
You know, I was about to post a plea for my brothers as well. They have been home from their missions 9 months and haven't dated at all. What is with the boys these days? They need to get married, or at least be heading in that direction.
Ryan's only been home 6 months and hasn't dated...wait no that's 6 years.
Well, he is dating someone, but he is currently calling it "hanging out." Retard.
I will repeat myself...that is why there are no daughters of perdition. They will get all of those cool guys in the celestial kingdom who died in wars defending the honor of women of the world. Those retards(not Ryan) who think they are too good for beautiful, righteous girls deserve the perdition as far as I am concerned...Just a bitter mother here.
Hahahahaha! You are crazy, but I agree with you! That makes me crazy too, no?
I have to say that I am not too worried about Mr. Ry, I know he has a plan. I just don't like being left out of it! Hahaha!
oh my gosh... You are so gay. First of all, I said "hanging out" without thinking like a girl would, cause you guys dive so deep into every freakin word. What I meant by that I was of course dating Lauren. For quite awhile now, and I love it. Secondovly, 5 years Taylor. And I have dated since the first week I was back. Like my only defender Ben said, I was playin and felt good about doin that cause I had plenty of time to think of marriage cause after all its ETERNITY and no way am I not gunna not date around and see what I want. All suckers who just get married right after their missions just cause they know marriage is the next step to take are capital R retards. You gotta shop around.
By the way, Chad is freakin 29. Im only 26. And I'm dating, no wait...courting (ugliest word ever but used for KJ since I must be specific in my dating words around her relationship sensitve ears and eyes) a great girl. Point being, I'm not the menace or the sad one here... Haha not as long as Capitan 29 is still sittin around bein noncommital.
hahahaha That's freakin hilarious!! hahahaha Good thing he doesn't have a blog...right!? ;)
Good responses, Ryan. You have just been smart!!! Keep it up!!!
Some people just find the right one a little faster than others. Why would they shop around when they've found the right one right off the bat? I hope you're not calling those people retarded, especially when a certain cute girl throws off the "plan" of being a playa right off his mission.... *laughs at the thought of curtis being a playa although he was one in HS with his mullet*
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! *wipes eyes* I LOVE it! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Look at the wonderful reaction I got. Perfect. All I wanted was a little info, and I got it. You just need to poke the right place! Glorious. Anywho, I never thought you were a menace to society. As for Chad, well I am sure he is working on it. It is better he finds the right person for him than find someone to fill the void. We love you Ry...AND Lauren!
Hey lady! This is Valerie I think it would be way fun to get together. I'm sure Melissa would appreciate a little time to recoupe from being a large pregnant woman. Twins! Wow! Not something I would volunteer for. Your kids are adorable. I love catching up on your family.
Hey this is a long shot- do you know a Travis and Tana Homer that live in Layton. I played ball with her in college. I think she even coaches or coached for Layton High. Email me at faaootoa@aol.com and we can exchange info.
I belive Val bought a few too many vowels. Her name would not be a big money making round on "Wheel of Fortune".
To Ryan: Someone is a little snippy, snappy, a bottle full of unhappy. (Taylor puts his hands on his knees and stoops down two inches from Ryan's face) Hey you. Hey funny face. No need to get all worked up...I think you need to dig down deep to see why the hostility. Let's take a dive...a dive deep into Lake You.
Haaa! I'm a reservoir, not a lake. But I haven't been defensive in some time and I knew KJ wanted a reaction...so why not. As for the unhappy part, of course I'm not the cheeriest, I'm in 20 degree weather everyday. Its as warm at 2 am as it is at 2 pm. However, Romney is ahead in Florida projections so I do have a smile on. Oh, have you seen Point Break lately?
20 degrees is warm where I'm "from!" Kiss my almost frost bitten toes! Now, -20 is more like "cold."
Yay for Romney! Can't say that I have seen Point Break lately.
I saw it last the time I was up in Utah. Your Dad should be getting the bill any time now.
Tip: Come on vacation to San Diego. It's pretty nice here. It's almost speedo weather.
leopard speedo that is
Val, I am pretty sure Tana was in my Stake that I just barely moved out of. Actually, I think she lived in our subdivision, but she was in a different phase. I know all of my other friends knew her. For some reason I can't picture her face, but I know we have met! My brain has been scrambled since we moved!
KJ could you please say "at ease" I have been standing at "Attention" in front of my computer with might feet parted slightly...and since Monday January 21, 2008!!! Hurry I am getting hungry. I do have a lick of cheesecake left in the fridge.
