CHICKENS!

As some of you may have heard, on Saturday Dad bought some lovely little chackens. Some of us were against it, but upon seeing the little peckers in there little cage, Angela, Emma, and I actually came to think they were not so bad. Since we thought no one else cared we named them all. So here they are.

This one is named after a Scottish lady you

might know. Her name: Lady Cluck

This lovely little red-head is named Merideth.

This one's name is Sunshine. Anybody who

wants to make fun of the name will feel Emma's wrath.



This one's name is Glackie. :)

This one we named for its cool markings.

May I present: FALCON

This one is a favorite. A little chicky,

only a couple of weeks old. We

affectionately call her Goldilocks.

This one is called Zebra.

We have very original names, you see.

This one's full name is the Little Red Hen,

but you may call her Red, or Little Red, or Li'l Red.

Anything like that. I don't think she actually

knows her name, so I don't think she actually cares.

So there you go! I hope you all come to love (or tolerate) them as much as I do.

-Rachel, the chicken lover

P.S. Shawna I am sorry. I tried to name one for you, but Angela and Emma decided Hudson is not a name at all. ;)

First Fatality of the Swine Flu!

And we all know who the carrier is.........

:)

Children

So family as you all know, I am here at lovely BYU where tea and coffee we despise and we never ever lie. And, you also should know that here at lovely BYU, the hunt for eternal glory and marriage is constantly being thrust upon us. Because of these factors, I have realized that when I start popping out children faster than you can say marspeshaljenjeramananpacoualsteshalarmasracangem (our names all combined) I will need to be prepared with some killer names. If you'd all vote on which names you'd like to call your nieces and nephews, that would be a great help. I will have 4 boys and 4 girls;)

Boys
Hudson- Hudman or Huddy for short
Rafael
Triantula
Pwince Dewek
Tobais
Job
Tony B.
Red
Racer
Gunther

Girls
Nunrun
Slutrbo
Iroquis
Shelby
Ezma
Dzjessica
Barb
Petals
Janae
Shanae (the twins)


Cute names right? To all those older couples planning on having kids- I better not see any of these names on any birth certificates

-Shawna

I've got a Sexy Stache

Here is a link to one of the best BYU videos out there. Shawna knows what I'm talkin about! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdgFisYCPHs Enjoy!

A girls week out

So this post is dedicated to girls who stayed home with me. We had a blast! At least, I did... I only took pictures two nights but some of them are gems.

The dance party. When you are twelve, you can never have too much blush. Or when you are fourteen... And don't worry, I know white pink is not my color...

Emma and her sass

Angela. She just wanted to put on a little more lipstick. Is that possible?!

Rachel was lovin the blush. Bring it on Baby!

Do you need some "nourishment?" We had too much fun with tootsie rolls while we were ice skating on Friday night. Actually, they got me in trouble with Angela's friend Skylar. If he was a better aim, I would have gotten it in the noggin.

Angela showing off her skills

Angela was having SUCH a fun time... I guess I was the only one who got the "funny" face memo. I'm not usually that cross-eyed! And Emma? Well, that was her face in a lot of these...

I couldn't seem to get a good picture when all three of them were smiling. But look at those cute little girlsies!

I hope you guys had as much fun as I did! Thanks for a great week! I love love love you!
