How beautiful is my baby girl??

Wow!

How long has it been since I updated this?!  The three followers I have must be beside themselves with grief.  But need not worry.  I have returned... for a minute anyway.  Honestly I completely forgot about his blog. I found it by googling my own e-mail ROFL.  I know... pathetic.

September 2010... let's see.  What has happened since then?!  You would not believe it if I told you.  So I'm going to tell you anyway and your unbelief will just have to deal.

I have a daughter.  Yes, that's right.  Parker LaRene Burt.  Born Febuary 8th 2011.  She is almost a year old now. 

I don't have any updated photos on this computer.  So an old one will have to do.  There are plenty on facebook if you want to check them out.

Also, Grandma Peterson died... (RIP).  I love and miss you.

Felicia graduated from highschool and I'm so proud of her.

Christopher got married to Tami and has a stepson Terrence.  They are an adorable family.  They had a house fire recently but it looks like they are getting back on their feet.

Maurine has returned from Canada.  She lives in grandma's old house now and I have a hard time calling it her home instead of grandma's. 

Mom broke her foot.  It was a really good break too.  She had to have surgery and everything.  But it's doing good now.  She is good.

What else... lets see.

Christmas was fun.  Parker loved her toys.  She is not one of those kids that prefer the packaging over the package.  She went straight for the good stuff.  Now... a month later... battery prices are getting outrageous.  They should make these things rechargable.

There's a lot more, but I only have an hour and a half of work left.  So we will cut this here. 

I will leave you with a video....

What I do with my spare time =)

Plants

I was goofing off the other day and took pictures of all of Lynne's plants and thought I would show them off on here. They're pretty kewl.

This one she inherited from her grandma Hawkins.

Bought this in Mesa last week. It's actually mine, it's a Rhubarb. Lynne takes care of it for me though.

This one she got in Mesa as well... but it is hers.

This is her hanging plant. I don't actually know what it is.

These are starts she got from two of my mom's new plants.

We were trying to start an avacodo seed. It didn't work very well.

She bought this at the flower shop with her tax returns.

These three actually live together in the same pot now. I call it plant consolidation.

I think this one is mine as well. But I don't remember. Lynne takes care of all of them.

This one was left over from my father's funeral. I stole it from my mom.

Aloe Vera!!!! I love Aloe Vera!

We couldn't resist. I love palm trees.

Just recently found out that this is a Jade plant.

So, what do you think? Feedback people!!!

Felicia's B-day Party

Felicia turns 16 tomorrow. Scary huh? Makes me feel old. We had her party tonight. Here are some photos

HANNAH MONTANA!!!

Patches was laying on the old TV set at Grandma's house and when he noticed everyone, he went to the middle of the floor and layed there while Felicia opened presents. Layed just like this.

Felicia couldn't wait to actually open the package to eat the swedish fish.

This cake was from Anna's (Lynne's niece) b-day party the night before. it's a princess cake, she just turned 4.

Trip to Mesa

Since last I wrote a lot has happened. A lot for big "B" Town anyway.

Last weekend (like feb. 21 thru 23 or something) Lynne, my mom and I went to Mesa to see Tim for his birthday. I think he just turned 23. I didn't take a lot of pictures cuz I forgot.

We went to dinner with Connie and her family on friday night. That was a rewarding experience =P. We went to Chili's. The food was actually pretty tasty.

First thing Saturday we hit the mall. None of the actual shops were open, which I thought was weird cuz it was 8am. But I guess AZ morning is diff than UT morning. But we did get some kewl pics from the food drive they were having there.

Pretty kewl huh? All those statue-like things are made of canned food.

That night we went to Walmart. I chopped off all my hair. My feet hurt and I wanted to sit down, so I went to the hair salon there and butched it off. I don't have any really good pics but here are a couple.

So far there has been positive feedback. I, personally, love it.

Ok, so Sunday, after our emergency trip to walmart again before we left for home. We ran into this in the parking lot. So of course we had to take some photos.

Evil Garbage Cans

So after enjoying a sandwich at Subway Wednesday mom backs the Exploder into a trash can. It brought flashbacks of the time she backed into the tree at Lyman Park years ago. Except that time it only took out her rear view mirror. This time... well see for yourself. Crazy huh?

Too bad I didn't think to snap a picture when the trash can was actually sticking through the back of the Explorer. Good news though. It didn't actually dent the hatch. Just shattered the

window.
