Worth a read (somewhat political)

I encourage you to read this article by the editors at National Review Online. It sends a chill up my spine. (re: Prop. 8 in CA)

Z is 3!

My baby Zachary is 3! I can't believe it. He had a very fun day on his birthday although he didn't get used to the idea that it was supposed to be fun until the afternoon. He was concerned in the morning because we have been telling him he will have to use his potty when he turns 3. (that's another story) Since he doesn't like using his potty chair, he told me that he was 4 on his birthday, instead of 3. I guess he figured he would outsmart me on the potty training. :)

We did a motorcycle theme for his little family birthday. He had a motorcycle cake, he got a bunch of little motorcycles, and a motorcycle ride on toy that he is crazy about! We love you Zachary and are so blessed you came to our family.

Sometimes you just have to laugh

Anxiety and Exit Polling

I have a familiar gut ache. It's the every 4 year variety, usually the first Tuesday in November I have an uncomfortable rock in my gut. It's called "ifmyguydoesn'twinican'tgoonitis". I feel it more than ever this year but I am also going to be an exit pollster tomorrow so I feel doubly nervous. It's right up my alley but I am not one who usually likes to approach strangers and ask them questions. Oh well, it pays well and I like to try new things!

I don't know what I am going to do without Drudge all day. Usually I am the one watching for leaked exit poll results and tomorrow I will be the pollster asking for them. Being the local pollster won't tell me anything about the national race though, because Idaho is the reddest of the red states.

I voted at the courthouse today because I will be working from morning til night tomorrow. Zachy was asleep on my shoulder during the 30 minute wait. My arms are still shaky but we got it done. I love to vote and consider it a privilege.

God Bless America!

Oooohh....Check it out

Luke Skywalker, half dressed kid, Bugsy, and the Mummy Bride

The kiddos have the big annual SPOOKTACULAR at their school today. You would think it's Christmas the way they anticipate this carnival and parade.

Brynn got to be in a Halloween Fashion Show at her church Young Women's group last night. She is enjoying being a mummy bride a little too much. At least she likes it. You never know with her these days. :)

Kate was going to be Princess Lea to go along with Ryan as Luke Skywalker but I couldn't find a dang Lea costume. (do you think it's because I am 20 years too late) Oh, well. She fell in love with the mobster costume as soon as she saw it.

Ryan's only disappointment is that he can't bring his light saber to school as it's considered a weapon??? I know the school has to draw a line somewhere but he is still sad.
