2010

Here's to you 2010. You started out rough but ended with a bang!

Digging the cars out

We got three feet of snow this week. Had to dig the cars out and clean them off twice because it wouldn't let up. Merry Christmas!

Happy Halloween

Another Halloween celebrated. This year I had to pull out an old number while Mandi made a new one. We had fun carving pumpkins with the McKinlays and I got to act as Willy Wonka at my parents ward party. The kids kept on coming up to me asking me if I was really Johnny Depp. Some couldn't stop calling me Johnny even though I kept saying, "Who is this Johnny character? I'm Willy Wonka!" That costume will live on for years and years. We got a great photo of all of the family after the party was over. Krystal did some great paintings of Han and Lea from Star Wars and some Umpa Loompas that you could stick your head into for photos. Well, Until next year!

Thank you for keeping the Hobbit in New Zealand

I'm in this "Save The Hobbit" video that the technicians at Wetta put together. Warner Brothers almost pulled the Hobbit from filming in New Zealand because of the actors strike. There was a call to fans from the technicians at Wetta Digital and Wetta Workshop to submit video on why the Hobbit should be kept in New Zealand. It was shown to Warner Brothers in hopes that they would change their mind. I'm happy to say that it did. You can hear my voice at 1:48 and see me announcing my name at 4:35

Day 2: California Adventure

Here are some photos from our second day in LA. We had a great time in California Adventure. It's really cool because you kind of get a glimpse of California through the years. I loved the Aviation section of the theme park. Very cool. They end the night with an awesome show called the World of Color. They spray mist in the air and project images in the water droplets. The fountains paint the sky in such amazing ways. You just have to see it.

Disneyland Part 1

Over fall break the McKinlays took us on a trip to the Magical Kingdom of Disneyland. This is day one of our trip. We were all like little kids. We even joined in on the parade and danced with the characters in a Conga Line. Awesome! Thanks to Art we were escorted to the front of most lines because of the wheel chair. What a good sport.
Enjoy the photos and stay tuned for more with day 2 in California Adventure!
