First post ever... June 22, 2008
I was looking through some of the first post to the blog.. This is the first one ever...Harper looks so little. Well, I guess is was 3 years ago. She was ONLY 3 1/2and already loving fireworks!
The 4th of July is only a few weeks away and Matt and Harper are already getting ready. She loves to go out the driveway and 'light' things off. Matt got her some kid friends sparklers (or at least as kid friendly as they can get) and she loves them. Cousin Craig was over last week and they started lighting thing off. They of course had to add in the ever so popular smoke bomb -which Harper wasn't so sure of at first but got the hang of it.

The PIT's progress!
Mitch and Matt are making great progress on the monstrosity... oops, I mean the PIT!
It's alive...
I was going through some old email and came across this one that Matt has sent me on 06/14/2008. I know it's old, but it is sure funny!
It was an average Friday afternoon. We cleaned the shop like we do every week and I clocked out. I needed to run a couple errands down town, the bank, the parts store, nothing out of the ordinary. As I pointed the Intrepid towards town, I realized that something was different about this day, I couldn't explain it. There was a strange aura coming from the downtown area, kind of an erie glow, It was like I could see evil all around. I didn't pay too much attention to it, I figured I was just seeing things after a long day at work. I hit the bank and made it to the brake house and figured I'd drive by the pub for the hell of it and see if anyone was there. I got to 13th and L street and started smelling the most foul smell I have ever smelt. At first I thought I may have farted and not known about it, I sniffed towards my crotch and it checked out clear. By the time I got to 12th and L, the smell was unbearable and I could see the erie, evil glow was coming from around the corner on 11th street,,,,,,,,,,Right by the Pub!! It was if death itself was all around. I made it to the corner and went to turn left and there it was!! It was hidious, all orange and rust colored with the remnants of imitation wood grain trim and what was once white paint. Once again I had come face to face with my shamefull rusted past,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Holden's Humor
Thought I would add a couple of 'funnies' from Holden. Jayne told me about these and I will try to get them as close as i can remember....
Jayne, Holden, Katy & Caroline were heading to Marion for Jordan's graduation. Holder was getting bored so Jayne told him to look for cows and windmill. Holden asked what a windmill was so when they saw one Jayne pointed it and and explained what it did. "The windmill has pump that pumps the water up from the ground and that is what makes it turn." Holden was quiet for a bit and then says "I bet the
water sure gets dizzy." Jayne, let me know if I'm way off on this and I'll change it.
Jayne had taken Holden to Super Target and there was a bunch of Watermelons. Holden asked Jayne what they were and when she told them they were watermelons he got really excited and asked "If they were full of water?"....
