The Sam's Club Diet

In case anyone is wondering, I'm making up for lost blog time at the insistence of Natalie. It's not that I don't like blogging, I just don't do many things I consider blogworthy. I've been at school for almost a year and a half, so most of my life revolves around friends and people that no one in my family knows. So if it seems to you like some of these posts are contrived and designed to take up space, you're right. For example:

Hi, my name is Richard. All my life I've been a chubby kid. Sam's Club changed all that with their 12 month diet. For 12 months, I was paid to push shopping carts for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. I could eat all of my favorite foods in large quantities, and I would still lose weight. Sounds too good to be true? Just look at the results:

There's proof, everyone should work for Sam's Club.

Roommates......

He's at it again. Here's my favorite roommate, Daniel, sleeping on the floor at 11:00 am. I love this kid (actually, he's 27).

Bling Bling

Here's my new bling (and an excellent shot of my not-so-sparkling white teeth):


Fortunately it's only temporary until I get my real crown. That will be my last dentist visit for two years, thank goodness. After two root canals, four wisdom teeth, and four cavities, I think I deserve a break from the dentist.














After taking this picture, I kinda got carried away... Here's the aftermath:

New Camera

Happy Birthday to me (a month ago)! Here's a few pictures to show off my new camera.

Halloween Fun!

We had a ward trunk or treat and everyone got into the halloween spirit. Anna and Natalie were matching witch sisters (and on Halloween night they trick-or-treating together). Krista got nostalgic and dressed 50's complete with poodle skirt. Murray and Nadine paired up as Phantom of the Opera and Christine. On halloween night they sat out on the porch step handing out candy and playing Phantom music. It was great fun. We always love to dress up at our house. The kids got way too much candy this year so next year we will probably all have to go as round pumpkins and roll down the street.  

Anna also got invited to other Halloween activites opting for the cow girl look. 

Haircuts for fall break

The girls took time during fall break to get haircuts. Anna dosen't want to cut her hair though because she wants to grow it as long as Rapunzel's.

Here's Krista's new look. 

Natalie got hers cut too but it wasn't to different. 

Here's Anna's perfect Kindergarten teacher, Mrs Ramage. Anna likes her teacher very much and gives kindergarten a two thumbs up.
