I love you peta!

I know this may sound weird but peta (people for the ethical treatment of animals) has given me one of my new favorite words. They have decided that all those cute fish in the sea are being eaten so we need to change their name from Fish to sea kittens. I don't think peta really thought this one through. I don't know what it is about the name but instead of making me NOT want to eat them it is doing to opposite! I actually want to go out and have a nice sea kitten dinner! I also found this picture that is just awesome!

I think this is a great gage as to how crazy our society is becoming! Why can't I eat fish without some crazy tree huggers complain that i am evil and a hate monger! They are crazy! HAVE A FANTASTIC DAY!

The big cut.

So as all of you are aware this is how Kathryn's hair use to look. As you can tell this post is to announce that Kathryn has cut her hair and it is quite different then from this picture. Now of course i think she looks stunning but i guess I am a little biased.

So here is a picture of her getting her hair cut. The Lady doing her hair is about six months pregnant and she claimed that kneeling down was the most comfortable stance she had been in all day.

And here is the final product. I think she looks super cute. It is so nice to actually see her neck. She is such an awesome girl and a good sport. She loves her new hair cut and i can't do anything to tell her otherwise (not that i would).

Ode to a public education.

if anyone has any doubt about how awesome a public education really is you have to look at this picture. Someone should have really checked this kids spelling before he turned it in. It is really cute but wrong on so many levels. 

Kathryn's Birthday!

Today is Kathryn's birthday. I felt bad because it was a sunday but i don't think she minded to much because she got to relax. My parents came up to take us out to dinner, a Ballestero tradition. We went to this great place in Idaho Falls called Smitty's. You get so much food for you buck. It was one of the most amazing places I have eaten at in a long time.

Oh, today was also the first official day of Kathryn's new calling as Relief Society President. She said it went really well. I am so proud of her.

School has also started for us which is crazy. I am taking 18.5 credits while Kathryn is taking 14. We really don't get to see each other much so this weekend has been wonderful. 

New Years

For New Years we went down to Utah to spend time with Kathryn's family. We went with Jenny and Schyler to play in the snow. We went to some rental properties that Schyler's Dad owns and went sledding behind a four wheeler. We had a bit of a rough start with Porter but in the end i think he had fun. I will let you decide from the pictures. I don't think Allison was having to much fun but in the end she was all smiles. It was one of the best New Years I have ever had.

Christmas

Well it has been a while since i have done a real post so here we go.

For Christmas we went down to my folks. It was a nice vacation from all the hoopla. We spent 3 days there and when we tried to come home on the second day the roads were so icy that we had to stay another day. All in all it was way fun. I got this awesome game called Acquire. It would take to long to explain it here but never the less it was way fun. We went up to the south hills on christmas eve which was way fun. I thought we were going to die because of how slick it was. anywho it was cool.

A real east coast education......

Glenn Beck has provided me with yet another humorous picture. This one is from a Philadelphia PA Burger King. You have to laugh. I found it so funny i almost wet myself. anywho, enjoy. I love how meat is spelled meet. CLASSIC!!!
