Stuffed Turkey?

After our Sunday meeting at the Hilton we went out on their patio for some family momentos. This is a bridge built by the Romans that I think is at least a 1,000 years old. From what I understand, they just recently stopped driving over it. Although, I could be wrong about the age and the driving part. It wouldn't be the first time.
This is the big mosque is the area.  It is very beautiful and the grounds are amazing. This next week we will start seeing people traveling from Syria, Iran and Iraq to be able to visit this mosque. Buses and vans are jammed packed with people and the traffic is ridiculous. It is really cool to see.

Tagged: College Memories

Thanks to Heather, this is the first time I have been tagged in a LONG time. So... here are a few of my college memories:

I went to school a total of 5 years. Mostly because I didn't know what I wanted to do, and partly because some of my classes and me did not mesh.

My first year, I realized that boys liked me and that my world did not revolve around basketball. I went to UVSC now UVU and have sat in the hall of flags where people watching is famous. And, oh did I people watch. I am still a good people watcher today.

Second year was more fun because I joined the world of Utah State Univ. Heather introduced me to a whole bunch of people so I wasn't completely lost.  I really enjoyed my roommates and my neighbors. The kidnapping by JP and Richie were good time, and the ice cream even better. During this year, I also realized that I could be a little more feminine and I stopped wearing hats less that  year and started doing  my hair more often. Let's face it I already knew I was pretty, but dang I really am gorgeous (this great confidence comes from my family, mainly my older sister)!

My third year was great too. I moved into a place where I didn't know anybody and I could care less about my roommates, but I think  it helped me come out of my shell some more.  I worked a lot, but managed to have great fun.  I was in a car with some neighbors one who tried to outrun the police, and when he decided to stop he said, "It's a Caprice, you understand". He  was just given a warning because he did make complete stops at the stop signs. Also, Liz and I had buns of steel from "Buns of Steel". It really works.

I loved my fourth year.  Again, I moved in with people I did not know and made great friends.  We did lots of fun stuff, but one of the things we did was have the best Halloween party in town.  It was awesome.  We had food room, dance room, and a scary movie room/ whatever. They tried to do the same thing the next year, and it just didn't hold a candle to it.

The last year, Melissa Rimmer and I moved into Yellow Brick on Darwin.  We had one of the best views because it sat on the top of the hill with no buildings to block us. 

I made great friends throughout the years, but those who I miss hanging out with the most are Liz, Melissa, Heather and Shae. Ah, good times. 

I don't tag anybody. I am usually horrible at it myself, but if you want to feel free.

JEAN GENES

Rolling a tongue and connected earlobes are two traits passed from one generation to the next.  Apparently a keen sense of fashion is a lesser known gene picked up and passed from one lucky parent to one even luckier daughter.  PJ may not know it yet, but she is the benefactor of such a wonderful trait.  It is hard to tell which side of the family she gets this from.
If it is any indication, Rick will take her to the grocery store like this.  We don't know if people are joking when they ask if she dressed herself.

We would like to blog more, but we finally get to watch a new episode of 30 Rock. Udy's out.

Hilarious or horrifying?

I laugh until my face hurts when I watch this.

It looks like he lost his car keys on her caboose.

5 REASONS TO LOVE TURKEY

Rick got to hang out with Curly Neal and his manager all day a couple weeks ago.  So in the spirit of them supporting us, we took a picture.  Curly was really cool. He remembered all the little kids names, and had some really good stories. For those of you who are trying to remember which one he is, he is the one that always wore gold chains and was on Scooby Doo. 

1. The kids are so polite. They always come and ask for money (not these kids, but most do) and then keep following you until you are driving away in your car.

2. The air is super clean. There are only a few ashes flying past you from burning garbage.

3. All sorts of creatures end up in your bed while you are sleeping. Roaches, crickets, spiders, geckos, etc.

4. Bombs.

5. There is no need to spend money on perfume or cologne because no matter what your odor will match the environment (the smell of burning something and sewage).

There are actually lots of cool things about Turkey. The food is really good and the people are more hospitable than most places. They would literally give you the shirt their back if you said you liked it. There are a lot of cool ruins, and the produce is delicious!
