Say Hello to the New Home Owners!

I could not believe that March went by so quickly. I thought a quick update is in order.

Heather and I are still waiting for the papers from Salt Lake clearing us to be sealed. In the mean time, we have taken posession of a wonderful home. As of last Friday, we are home owners! Since that time we have been removing wall paper, painting, other quick renovations, and moving her and the boys into the new place. I of course will move in when we finaly get married, which will hopefully be soon.

It amazes me as to how quickly everything has progressed. Yes, there have been some bumpy roads in the last few months, but over all everything is falling into place. I so look forward to finally being married to the most amazing woman there is and having a family with her. While I am eternally grateful for my older sister and her family for allowing me to stay in their basement these past two years, I am looking forward to having a home of my own.

Just wanted to make a quick entry. Here is the Top 10 List:

Top 10 Things I Have Always Wanted to Try
10. Skydiving. Yes, I am afraid of heights, but for some reason falling out of a plane has appealed to me.
9. Performing in a theatrical play. No, I do not mean in some amateur type thing like is done in church (although those are fun). I mean a professional play.
8. Watching surgery take place. Since I am a biology teacher, it would be very cool to see it being done.
7. Alligator meat. Actually, there are several animals I want to sample, including bear, kangaroo, and snake.
6. Traveling to every state in the US and every province in Canada. I'm just missing one province but almost all the states.
5. Attending a big show biz award show...wearing a pair of jeans, T-shirt, sandals, and asking where the BBQ is at.
4. Interviewing a famous person. Don't care who. I just want to ask them what their least favourite song from the 80s was and then sing it to them over and over again.
3. Visit the grave sites of all of my heroes who have passed on. This includes Jim Henson, Johnny Cash, Joseph Smith, and Gene Roddenberry (which will be difficult as his ashes were sent into outer space)
2. Sit in on a session of Parliament with a friend of mine and heckle the politicians like the two old guys on the Muppet Show.
1. Parenthood. At least that one is on the horizon.
