Surprise!

Joshua seems to always have a look of eternal surprise on his face - I wonder what's so darn shocking at our house???

Bob's Big Boy

Has any one ever eaten at Bobs Big Boy? I guess there used to be one here but now the only one left is the origonal one in California. It is now a historical monument. It was acutally really good. You could tell the meat wast high quality like the ones I have been spoiled with at the Carters, but it was almost like they carmelized it before they put it in the bun. Any way it is way cute, waiters on skates and a classic car thing outside. It was fun.

One horse....comin right up!

Landon told me earlier today that he is skipping the "I want a dog for my birthday" phase and is going right to wanting a horsey for his birthday.

Hie to the blog!

I am not one to jump in and prod people with electronic control modules, but it is apparent that there is a summer "bog on the blog" and some people are not posting regularly. I implore you to reconsider. To account for this slack, I am offering to post pictures from my mission as a cheap facsimile of what really is out there with all of you creative people. That threat alone will surely nourish the seeds of creativity amongst our group and the harvest of well-taken photos and biting commentary will be with us once again.

This photo was taken in Tijuana, as you can tell. It depicts one of the most zany attractions the city has to offer--a polaroid photo offering to a fee-paying individual to sit on filthy serapes whilst posing behind a donkey painted to look like a Zebra. Not only that, but the joy of sitting behind such a beast is like staring into the jaws of...well, I am sure you can fill in the blanks here can't you? Can you say "el stinko?"

The deal is this: either we become more creative with postings of family photos (children's photos are appreciated) or I will begin with the slides of the mission. Trust me on this one. They may not be pretty.

Joshy Josh

Just thought I'd post some newer pics of Joshua - trying out this internet site a bit on the girls' computer too... Wow, is he adorable or what??

I was also hoping to commemorate the 1-year anniversary of the AZCARTER blog, but loooking back, I apparently missed it by a month. No one even made a cake, sheesh...
