It couldn't get any better

















I had Saturday off work this last week, so we decided to go down to St. George for a little fun in the sun. It was not sunny. We had to wear our jackets until noon. Then the sun came out and it was not too bad. After Jennifer ran from store to store, not buying much, we got to go to Carl's Jr. We then hit the mall and kid to kid. Seth got some new levis and new, dark blue, church pants. We then went to DI. The St. George DI is always packed. There were something like 200 people in there. After looking through everything and not finding any goods that we wanted, and not wanting to spend any more money, I found this lovely BYU clock. It is works and only for $2. What a deal! I asked Jennifer, "What kind of a fool would send this to DI?" She figured some old guy died and losers sent all of his stuff to DI. I am grateful to that old man for his sacrifice.

It is rare that I found BYU stuff. Usually I just make my own. Here is picture of our new door mat. It cost $4 at Walmart and then I add that special touch. We needed a mat out front. Our carpets are getting kind of dirty, since I never wipe my feet. Feel free to use the mat, just don't step on the Y.









Since it was Skip's birthday back on the 8th, we wanted to get him something useful. We all know that Skip loves to cook. We have been at his apartment a few times and he has been wearing Amy Jo's apron. He hasn't wanted to wear a flower apron, so he turn the flowers to the inside. It works but looks funny. We found this apron cheap at Walmart and used some paint to personalize it. Using a skip card from phase 10 as my guide you can see that I painted a larger card on the front of the apron. Skip seemed very pleased with it and put it on immediately. He then cooked us up some delicious pork chops. Amy Jo and Skip always treat us to a nice dinner everytime that we visit. We need to return the favor very soon. I hope they like Totino's Pizza.

The clock is pretty good, but that apron of Skip's. Classic! That was a way good idea to think of phase ten. Good present.

You need to open a shop. The "Y" gift shop. The apron was a creative idea. What are you getting me for my birthday?
