My birthday is next week so on the 30th we are going to Salt Lake to see Alex and the other Ostriches at Kilby Court! I'm excited!

300 Miles of Gravel Trailer / Life Update

This is footage from last years Trans Iowa. The documentary should be coming out early next year.

The Trans Iowa was started by a man known as Guitar Ted who thought it would be a great idea to ride his bike across Iowa. Its pretty insane but if you are interested in the history of how it started you can read about it here, and if you want updates on next years event, here.

LIFE UPDATE:
Other than that today I have been packing for my journey to Idaho for school, packing is not my favorite thing to do at all. I leave on the 2nd early and should be in Rexburg on the 3rd in the afternoon some time.

Christmas went well, we changed it up this year and opened presents on Christmas Eve, it was a nice treat to not have to be rushed on Christmas having to open presents and go to dinner at Grandma Paulsons. It was a good Christmas this year, it was great to be home and be around family and friends, not saying that I didnt like Christmas on my mission. I got a new camera, nothing fancy but anything is a lot nicer than not being able to see anything on your screen at all.

Over all I am excited to go to school and start a new chapter of my life, it should be fun and exciting and new and all those other things school has to offer.

Hope you all had a fantastic Christmas /  Holiday / whatever the crap you celebrated season!

The Flyboard Zapata/ Life Update

This looks like the closest thing we can get to an iron man suit!




Other news:

I was working on my mission wrap up/ some other photo projects and magically my external harddrive where I store my photos and music decided to crap out on me. Now it only makes this delightful clicking noise and I cant access it. LOVELY! Hopefully someway someone can recover the at least the photos from it. The best part about the whole thing is that I was going back all that info up on my other harddrive tonight!

Hopefully you all have better luck than me and don't loose all of your digital film memories.

And to think, now we have stuff like this:

Transfer 7, The End of the Poky East Era!

Oh... the Pocatello East stake... it was a great area and turned into pretty much a second home to me. There will always be fond memories of the great things that happened there and the people there. It was a good run, but sooner or later the fun has to end. I was transfered to the Ammon West stake and learning new people and places has been ok, it is very exhausting to learn a new area but is all for the greater good, I guess the people of Ammon are in for a treat. Hope you are all have a great week. Gota run!

Madison, A Beach, A Fair, Work, Food and 1 More Fair

mariah came up to visit a few weeks ago, it was fair week so tom and dad were busy getting toms stuff done. Well now im jumping ahead of myself. Mariah got into town on late sunday night and i had to work monday. boo.

on tues we went to madison to find a suit for my mission, first we went to burlington coat factory, and they had a pretty good selection. Nothing seemed to fit correctly and there service was horrible, so we got a bit frustrated there and went to a place in the mall and the dude was great, he had me in a suit and out of the store in about 20 mins, it was great. After we were done at the mall we decided to go check out downtown since Mariah had never been there. it was pretty cool, we went up and down state street just going from shop to shop. here are some pics from monday.

On wed we decided to go to the beach, it was a good bum around day and mike didnt have to work so he came with us, it was a good time, but mariah and i got burned pretty badly.

on thurs we made the trip to milwaukee, to go to the state fair, it was another good day, we walked around the grounds and checked out the venders building, ate some good fair food, listened to some good music, went to the pig races, in the evening we went to a pretty sweet horse show, oh and i got to drive on the milwaukee mile speedway with my car, it was glorious, just with i could have went faster. (we parked between the start/finish line and corner 4 to bad it wasent free of cars). oh and when your at the wisconsin state fair you cant forget about the cream puffs.

then on friday i had to work again it was grand.

on saturday we went to the crawford county fair. we check out all the entries, i think tom got blue on every thing he entered and to two best of departments. so thats pretty sweet, after we checked that out mike and i tried to win some cash playing guitar hero but we werent as good as the rest of the people playing.

we also partook in the most redneck of sports, know as the demo derby.

this car got hit so hard the roof caved in

oh... and i got video of it!

Andy and I just watched this video and I thought it was sweet! So watch it.

Long needed update

It has been far too long since I have made a real post on here so I thought it was about time. lots of things have happened since my last real post (around Christmas) and it has been a busy couple of months. 

Since we have been back in Wisconsin Mariah has been in the hospital twice. The first time a few months ago for to get her tonsils out, and the last time a this past weeks to get her appendix out. I think that those two things should be taken out when you are 3 so you will never have to worry about them again. 

Between the 2 times of hospital-ness  Mariah and I have gotten engaged!!!

 So thats pretty sweet, we are getting married on Aug 1st, In Nauvoo, IL. 

Then heading back up to PdC. Its all pretty exciting and planning is underway, we booked a spot for the reception.

Other than that I'm still on the job hunt after "not fitting in" to my last job (LAME). Mariah is almost done with school and is moving back to PdC on the 5th so thats only a few days from now. That will be good.

I will try to keep this updated, but its hard being busy and all, until then...
