DING DING DING DING DING DING


Mark had to work in SLC yesterday and had a hard time driving home late last night. He felt like he was going to fall asleep, so he stopped at Fort Hall to walk around and wake up. He couldn't withstand the temptation of the slot machines and put 20 bucks in a nickel machine. He won 25060 nickels!! Being too tired to do the math he thought "Cool, I won a couple hundred bucks." After cashing out with the cashier and getting his picture taken, he was handed 12 hundred dollar bills, 2 twentys, a 10 and 3 ones. Whoa!!!! He was wide awake and drove home safely. I was shocked when we walked in our bedroom and handed me the wad of cash. I still can't believe it!

Not Such A Smartie

Alyssa came to me today almost in tears. She said "Mom, I have a problem"... Turns out...This little hand...

Put one of these...

Up this...

"Mom, my nose has a problem." Well, after lots of hard blowing and threatening the doctor would use tweezers, she finally was able to get it out.

I was having a hard time not laughing at her because I knew she knew better. After it was all over I asked her what made her think to do that??? She said she saw some boys putting things up their nose on nickelodeon. She learned a lesson and was very embarrassed! Poor kid!
