Happy Love Day Mandi!

I love my wife SOOOOOOO much. We refer to our anniversary as "Love Day" and I found this picture. I decided to post it for my wifey. She is so cute! I love her.

I just wanted to update everyone because I know you are all dying to know. I WON! I won my fantasy football league, first place. My team name is "Frojoe Baggins"

I edged out Jerky Boys in a Fantasy Playoffs nail-biter! As I chanted "BLOCK THAT KICK!", Chicago's defense decided to hede my council, and that last minute blocked kick was the swing to put the match into my favor.

You can all congratulate me now.

The best part is what I win. I don't win some stupid pot of money, or some insignificant trophy. I win bragging rights, which is the best reward ever!

Thanksgiving

We had a GREAT Thanksgiving weekend. We went over to Ryan and Alisa's home on Wednesday night to hang out with Joel's family. Thanks Ryan and Alisa for having everyone over :) We had a lot of fun. I put Joel in charge of taking pictures because I didn't have my phone, and apparently he forgot to take pictures because there weren't any on his phone. I wish I would have taken pics of Alisa cooking. She made everything from scratch! She even baked her own pumpkin for pumpkin pie!!! I was very impressed. I'm sure that everything they had for Thanksgiving dinner was delicious.

On Thanksgiving night, we went to my parent's home. They have been out of town for Thanksgiving the past two years, so it was nice to have them home this year.

Thanks mom for a great dinner!

This is my favorite part of Thanksgiving. The nap after being stuffed.

The Larsens love playing games. We started out playing spoons (which I won), and then played catch phrase. Grandma even got in on the fun!

Jeffrey was pretending to be a dog and went arond licking everyone. He kept trying to sit by Broseph and lay on him, so Broseph finally gave in.

End the day with a wrestling match. Jeffrey is only two, but he already knows how to beat up his uncles.

The iPhone is so Bad! (bad meaning good)

The iPhone is so cool. We just got new phones on Saturday and we have been playing with the iPhone all weekend. It is a pretty cool phone. It is really like a freaking laptop almost. It can do so much. If you have any cool ideas of cool apps or anything, let me know.

A few weeks ago we went to the Terrys home for Brits birthday party. As a birthday gift, Joel honored Brit with a head to head hug. Brit looks a little uncomfortable doesn't he?...

California Trip

We just got back from a short weekend trip to Anaheim. We spent the first two days in Disneyland and California Adventure. Disneyland always makes me feel like a little kid. We had so much fun! All of the Christmas decorations were up, it was really cute.

The two Toy Story rides are the most fun. Joel overall was better at them, but I killed him every time at accuracy, so I think we are equal even if he did get more points....
That's C3P0 back there...

We were just about ready to leave Disneyland, and the last ride we were going to do was Splash Mountain. Joel sat in the front of the log, and I was in the second seat. I didn't remember all of the little drops in that stupid ride, but we got soaked before we even went on the huge drop. Then the huge drop topped it off. We left right after that because we were soaking wet.... Not cool.

We asked this couple to take a picture of us, and turns out they were drunk. They took three pictures, and this one turned out the best.

The Toy Story ride in California Adventure is probably the most fun out of all of the rides. We went on this one three times, and this ride had the longest line out of all of them.

I took this the last night we were in Disneyland. This picture doesn't do it justice! It was so pretty down that main street!

This was probably Joel's favorite part of the trip. We went to Medieval Times, a little dinner and show thing. It was a lot of fun, minus the eating with your fingers. They serve you soup, chicken, ribs, baked potatoes, and dessert all without utensils. I though it was a joke until everyone around me started eating with their hands. Our knight was the red night, and he would have won if the stupid green knight didn't stab him in the back!

Jesus is my friend.

I heard this on the radio the other day, and thought that it was a cute little song, but mostly funny.

I love what K.O. said here...

I wish that people who don't know how they feel about this issue would just come talk to me for a moment. This issue has effected my life more than any other political issue on the table. I listened to this from Keith Olberman, and he really put to words a lot of my frustrations... I'd love to hear any comments that you might have on the video. Please take a moment and watch, or don't.

Tinkerbell Party

When Joel saw the preview for the new Tinkerbell movie, he decided to invite our three nieces over so we could all watch it together. Those cute little girls only watched the movie until the popcorn was gone (about fifteen minutes in), but we still had a lot of fun : )

Gardner Village

My mom, sister, and I went to Gardner Village last week. Gardner Village is such a cute little place. It's always really crowded when we go at this time of year, so we don't stay very long, but we got some good pictures in. Thanks for going with me mom and Kar!
