Uncle Preston at Lake Powell

Sunday April 20th, 2008 my uncle Preston Blair unexpectedly passed away at his home. I didn't really know my uncle until the past few years when Lance and I started going to Lake Powell. I searched through my pictures and this was the only one that I had of him. He was such a good guy and I always told him that he, out of all of my dad's siblings, reminded me most of my dad; which was probably why I felt so comfortable around him. He left behind all 4 of his children, 3 grandchildren, and one on the way. Pres was such a blast to have at Lake Powell. He always had such a sarcastic sense of humor, which I loved. You could always joke around with him, and he was the best snoring uncle I've ever had (I know, I have proof on tape...long story). This is a sad loss, but we know he is in a better place. Pres, you will truly be missed and we love you!

"Preparation"

While Cass (sister) was on vacation, this last Monday and Tuesday I had the privilege of babysitting. They actually weren't too bad, but W O W was it still an eye opener for me. I give credit to all the stay-at-home moms! My whole day (or should I say two) I was thinking about feeding, nap time, entertaining, cleaning messes, temper tantrums, changing diapers....my whole day revolved around them; I never thought having two kids could be so tough. Especially going from 0 to 2 kids. This was the first time I have had my nieces overnight, and boy was I glad to get home and back to work! Whew! I had a blast....and I think it helps just a bit that they are so darn cute.

The Golfing Trio

The weather was a little warmer this day, so my dad, lance, and I took the opportunity to practice our swing at the golfing range. My dad has been teaching me how to improve my swing. I must say it was some great advice! I was hitting every single ball, and not only were they going farther, but they were straight! It was a lot of fun.
Mom thought is was too cold, so she sat in the truck and waited until we finished.

Dad and Lance

Swing away

I was playing with my camera again, so I thought I would check out Lance's swing.
...so here we go...










Great form Lance!
