This past week and my Birthday Sept 8th

Thanks goes out to the kids for the Birthday presents I received last Sunday. This external hard drive and a graphic card that allows me more storage room for the many pics I take, better and faster pictures and it speeds things up. Thanks everyone! Thanks for the phone calls today as well many of you have checked in. Mom worked today, the kids were in school so it was kind of slow. Yesterday, mom drove me to IF for 2 new suits and I am excited about picking those up next week. We then went to the Blackfoot fair and that was fun, I am not sure where we fit in, it was Wednesday and not many people were there you had the older folks and the handicapped kids. About 400 kids I would guess with their care givers. I am thinking that I fit in both groups one way or the other.Here is a pic of the ext HD. Thanks, again!
I was able to go shooting Tuesday... Being on shift work allows me to have a little time for shooting that I have not had in a long time. Here is a .22 mag that I played with. Excellent shooting at 15 ft. (I am not looking forward to starting mids tonight for 3 in a row.) One great thing is that this shift has allowed us to read the scriptures more easily (daily) then ever before. Our goal is to read the BOM before the end of the year. We ended at page 100 today after reading just a little over two weeks.
I went to a garage sale last Sat and picked up this tool box for the truck. It does a better job of carrying the tools then the rubber maid box I had back there. Later gang!

I want to shoot that .22! It's cute!!! I'm glad you had a good birthday. Wish we could have spent it with you... Some day we will. Only 3.5 months til we come home. It feels like it's been an eternity!!! Love you daddy o. Xoxo

Yep, it will be fun. Not much sleep today with the neighbors all working on their projects and mom's hair customers. Haven't seen much of her due to her being busy for the past two days. Kind of a bummer.

I can't believe you didn't comment about Jessie calling a .22 "cute". I guess you are getting soft in your old age. You were nice enough not to mention that Lucy and I were the first to wake you. We have to get used to you working nights, too. I hope all is well!

Tessa, I didn't mention Lucy (and you) because I love you both very much and the squeeze I got from Luc made up for it. The worst part was the hammering from the neighbors. The "cute" part for the .22 does not out weigh the damage that little magnum can do it not used properly. And... yes, I am getting old and soft.. Your ma might want to trade me in for a couple of 26's. I am on my last night though and if I could learn to smile while running on low sleep your mom would be a happier person. I will work on that. I love you (all my kids) tons! Later, Dad (NOT daddy! Jessie)
