Me with a Polish sniper. These guys laid in the snow for about an hour waiting for Polish VIPs (Generals) to come watch them shoot. Hard core. They shot pretty well.

This is me and the "ratownik" (emergency response medic) who was working with the Polish Battle Group I was with the last two weeks. He was crazy and hilarious. He showed me a scar on his lower back where he had surgery, so he could walk again. He was unable to walk for 10 months after a fall. I asked him how many meters high the fall was and he answered, "a lot." Of course, having an old guy pointing out his scar just above his glutius crack was an experience worth remembering, especially when Polish explanations for why he's showing me his crack take a minute to register.

More Demotivators

The Internet here still bites and is unreliable, but it's working long enough for me to post some more demotivators. I hope you guys like these, if not then let me know and I will stop taking up blog space.

Ben likes this one a lot.

More Demotivators

Hey everybody, sorry for the delay but the Internet here has been pretty crappy lately (maybe it's because of the snow) but anyway, here's a new batch of demotivators--hope you enjoy.

Article

Here's an article about a 4-star general I thought you might all enjoy.

I especially enjoyed it because the writer told a story about Karl Malone too. My older sister was once alone in an elevator with Karl Malone at the Embassy Suites Hotel in downtown SLC and didn't even know it! I remember one of the maids pointed him out to me and then Beck realized what an idiot she was for not knowing. She was like, "Yeah, he was really nice. Asked me what floor I wanted and pushed the button for me." Ha!

Pictures from Joe

Joe sent me these pictures today and asked if I would post them for him. These may be the only pictures we'll see of him while he is out there.

Possibly best commercial ever!

blog format

Hey guys. Does anyone know how to change the spiderweb background?

thanks

Dave

Pass the snow, please

I think Punksatony Phil might not have made an appearance today had he lived in Iowa. Infact, he might have suffocated. We got hit hard last night with wind and snow that created 5-6 foot snow drifts. Everything is closed. No school for Dave. I don't know how he'd get there if it wasn't cancelled! Our car is literally buried.

Yep, that is most definitely our back door.

And our car.

Happy Groundhog Day!

Trip to San Diego

Lucy with her Great Grandpa Abeyta at his doughnut shop in San Diego.
Hailey with her Great Grandma Abeyta.

Lucy got in her first fight. I think the chair won. She doesn't have a dirty face, they're all scratches from the fall.
