So this is our atempt at telling all of you that have licence to read my Blog how we are doing this time of year.
Some things that are worth reporting about in our progressively disfunctional family is...and this is good...Alex is now potty trained. We desided to psych him up for this in telling him that after he turned three he didn't have to wear diapers anymore, that he would be able to wear "Big Boy" underwear. Well it worked! Alex now loves to call me at work and tell me about the latest episode of "Things I Did In the Potty!" He's a big kid now and is growing so fast. We spoiled him for Christmas this year, he can't wait for Santa to come and bring him LOTS of presents.
Wyatt is growing like an infectious skin rashm (maybe that was a bad comparison). He is now smiling, laughing, and even carries on a small conversation with Mommy now and then. Wyatt even surprised us one night. Wendy had laid a blanky on the floor and put Wyatt down for some Tummy Time, well he got to rockin' and well...he flipped over onto his back. We were dumbfounded! Hasn't done it since, but I'm expecting he'll soon start campaigning for babies rights and will a Nobel Peace Prize.
Wendy loves being home with the boys, she is now into this thing called "Scrapbooking?" She makes cards for different occasions and such. She loves playing with Wyatt and telling Alex to stop touching the food that will end up being dinner that night. You see, Alex loves to help Mommy make things in the kitchen. He'll pull up a chair next to the counter and "try" to help in anyway he can.
As for Papa, (that's ME, Will), I'm doing well. Work is going great, I'll be progressing on my rotation and move to the Construction Flight. I've been in the Operational Contracting Flight over two years now. I'll then move to a Systems job in October '08. For right now I'm scheduled to deploy July '08 to Dec '08. Now that doesn't mean that I'll actually go, it's just the time schedule that I could go. One thing to look forward to is my promotion this May. That's right! It's been two whole years and I'll be pinning on 1st Lieutenant 6 May 08. This means more money in "Wendy's Paycheck."
I can't believe that we've been in Dayton Ohio for almost two years now. We live in a great neighborhood, go to a really nice ward and really can't complain...about too much!
We have been so blessed this year. We want to Wish You A Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year!

JeFa-Fa Dun-Ham .com
So, a while ago I ran into a video on YouTube called Achmed the Dead Terrorist, (see the bottom of my Blog).
Well Wendy and I were surfing through the cable stations...ok, I was the one doing the surfing...but that's besides the point. I saw that there was a standup NEXT on Comedy Central. So I watch and it turns out its the same guy from YouTube...This outa be good!
For the next hour and a half Wendy and I laughed longer, harder, longer than I can ever remember.
So this guy Jeff Dunham is a ventriloquist and he has 5 acts that he does. First, is Walter, 2nd is Achmed the Dead Terrorist, 3rd is Melvin the Superhero, 4th is Peanut, and 5th is Jose the Jalapeno. By FAR one of the best standup acts I've ever seen. I would recomend seeing the whole act. They all play on each other...the jokes are all interlaced with each puppet.
Look it all up on YouTube! Let me know what you think!
P.S. Jose the Jalapeno IS legal!

The Extreme Suckage That Is USU's Football Team
In attempt to make sense of a football team that seems hellbent on going 0-12 this season.
USU has the claim to fame of being on ESPN's Bottom (Top) Ten List, making themselves quite comfortable there in recent years. This year they're ranked 2nd on that list, only behind FIU.
Within the local community of Cache Valley Utah the residents are hoping for a Athletic Coup. Yes indeed, it does seem likely that Logan High's football team, (the Grizzlies), will try to overthrow the college team in attempt to bring a win or more importantly dignity back to the small college town.
With the TOTAL LACK OF TALENT...I mean who would want to come play here but some of the local kids. Don't get me wrong, USU is a great school...it has a lot of highly respected organizations & departments, but the football team is NOT one of them.
I actually overheard a elementery school kid talking SMACK during a fieldtrip to the school. When asked what he thought about the football team he said; "My dad brought me to the game this Saturday and after the game I told my dad that my home room class could have put up a better effort than USU did." (The truth could have not been more plainly spoken!)
So in conclusion, we can all take our hats off to the USU football team fotr they will do somethning that maybe one or two other teams will accomplish all year. They will be PERFECT! Perfectly BEATEN! ***Maybe it's the coach's fault!**

Alex Meets Middle Size Gruff!
Alex is in fact holding a staring contest with the Middle Size Billy Goat Gruff! This is the walk through where the barn animals are. There were baby calves and this obnoxious family of Gruff! There's a holding area outside this barn where the goats can congregate and can walk on these long balance beams. You can also feed them.

Young's Dairy
So for dinner we decided to go the biggest tourest attraction in Ohio. Young's Dairy! For those of you who don't know about this hot spot, let me explain it to you.Young's Dairy...well is a dairy farm est. 1958. You go there to feed the animals...goats, cows, calves. There are some tractors that the little kids can climb on. Alex loved this part of the evening. It was late so we didn't spend a lot of time looking around. We had dinner there and I ended up getting the 2 hour flu, didn't feel so hot during dinner time.Another big ticket item at Young's Dairy is the ice creme. All the ice creme goes from cow to delicious ice creme within 24 hours. Now that's fresh!We went inside the barn and Alex got to see baby calves and all the billy goats Gruff. He really wasn't afraid of them, he just wanted to feed them the straw that was in their pens.
