Let The Resolutions begin!

New years resolutions. i love them just for the simple fact its an excuse or reason for people to change something about them selves. I guess its crazy to think about the whole thing. the one holiday that has no meaning or purpose except.

Guy 1: Hey! its a new year lets get drunk.

Guy 2: Ok.

Guy 1: (after the hang over.) Wow that was horrible i want to never do that again.

Guy 2: oh yeah!  you ought to make that a resolution.

BAM! the birth of new years resolutions. I just always think its funny that what people want to do in the new year. its like I’m fat i want to lose weight for my resolution. cause quite honestly any other time of the year there isn’t a reason for me to loose weight.  i have to do it in the beginning of the year….. yeah. can’t do it cause your over weight and you want to do it just for your self. NO! its my New Year’s Resolution! Its just funny to me maybe you never thought of it the way i do. or you just think im a jerk. no matter what its funny to me. yeah well there are things i plan on doing this year so here is my list.

1. Be the best DaD as possible.

3. Become a better Photographer
4. Get my farm back in shape from the windstorm
5. get 2-4 more goats for the woods.

So my little sea monkey now looks like a alien. YAY alien baby. heh well ill tell you what it goes a lot faster than you think it would. we are 20 weeks into pregnancy half way over. its a strange feeling sometimes just thinking about the little thing in Christina’s belly. she started feeling it recently and wow that is crazy too. sometimes its hard to really wrap your head around that there is some living little thing in there. i automatically think she got a face hugger on her and she feels fine and then at dinner bam little alien comes out. he he seriously though its a strange feeling cause it kicks so hard you can see her stomach move and you can feel it hit your hand. I can’t even think about what that would feel like on the inside. but any way we went to the doctors today for our 20 week ultrasound and check up. Up front everything looks great. 10 finger 10 toes a head and some other parts. everything points to a beautiful healthy baby just needs to bake for a few more months. So we have had a few arguments/disagreements lately concerning the baby. let me break it down for you so you will compeletly understand every argument

 

ME

Don’t want to know the sex

 

HER

Wants to know the sex!!!

so now your up to speed. I really would never have believed that we would dispute so much over this. even though i should have seen it coming. Christina is a very planed organized have to know everything to plan everything type of person. i am the type of person that … how does she say it…… the kind of person that flies by the seat of his pants. yeah that it. so personality wise we are ying and yang we fit perfectly together cause the things she really cares about and wants to control i don’t care and let her control it. and just the opposite so we complement each other rather well. but i will tell you what we have butt heads on this topic more than we have ever butted heads being married. mainly cause the dispute never ends cause no one is right and no one is wrong thats what makes this such a hard thing to dispute cause this is a dispute where no one is winning or losing.( i keep saying dispute cause its not an argument where it ends up screaming and throwing things across the room FIGHT. it just disagreeing) I never wanted to know what my first child is i think the joy of finding out when you first see it is part of the fun the experience. that is something that will stick in your mind for the rest of your life kinda thing. Its just something that makes that moment even better. it one of the last real surprises left in a persons life. then walking out to the waiting room where you family is and saying Its a (insert gender here)!!!! what a feeling it must be. thats what i have tried to explain to her but she thinks its just as surprising knowing while she is laying on a table with a bunch of jelly on her stomach while a woman rubs this probe on her belly and we see something or nothing on a black and white monitor ITS A ….. yeah thats not exciting not a moment you will remember for the rest of your life. it goes yeah we found out what you were we planned and everything…. meh. everything she comes up with i come with a counter and vise versa so you see how difficult it is to disagree on such a topic. so what are we doing? as of now we do not know the sex….. as of now.

(fingers crossed)

Friendship.

friend·ship /ˈfrɛndʃɪp/ [frend-ship] –noun

1.	the state of being a friend; association as friends: to value a person’s friendship.

2.	a friendly relation or intimacy.

3.	friendly feeling or disposition.

when you put it that way i guess there is not much to it. i have little friends or should i say a few. i have some that i could ask for help and they would come. others that would try to help as much as they could as long as it wasn’t really in the way of something there doing. i also have a friend that would drive across the country to help me no matter how dumb it may seem he would do it cause i asked him in a time of need. i know i would do the same as well. its hard to find that kind of a freind these days or any time for that matter its so easy to find a fair-weathered friend as they say. and it the worst feeling to find out that they turn out to be that type of friend too. trust me i have had my fair share of those freinds. Some times its hard to …not ignore it but i guess to acknowledge it. to truly tell some one that they are like a brother or a sister. that they mean alot to you and there friendship means more than words can discribe cause they have been there when your flat on your face. you have been there when they are flat on there face. and when that time comes your there even if its in another state you or they are there to help them or you up. and letting the one realize that they are going to be fine they/you have been thourgh worse and there will be worser days ahead and you/they will be there. its hard to find i guess thats all i am really trying to say. its hard to find a true friend. I just found out my true best friend is going to into the Air Force. Its scary to think of him getting into service during a time like we are living in now. The thing is being a good friend in my opinion  is never just telling some one what they should do. you have to let them make the decision for them selves the only thing you can do as a good friend is to make sure they know all the options for both choices. My friend had made a list of all the pros and cons and this seems to be the best bet for him. i hope to god it is. I know he is not one to make quick and irrational decisions. its just a lot to take in when you find out these kind of things. Its just something that has been on my mind the past few days.

My prayers are with you greg.

Now That’s What i Call a Tractor!

Good Old Boy, Rough Neck, Country Boy…. Call it what you will I am one I don’t go to the existent of calling my self a redneck or hillbilly cause well those are the people that think wal-mart is part of the government.  I have been in the country my whole life i live and breath it. I am not your typical Country Boy of course due to the profession i am in i do more than just sit around a tire fire talking about there cousins. Truth be known i really don’t sit around tire fires…..yeah. well being a Country boy I have to admit that i do indulge in some of the sporting events. These are not what you would think though but yes NASCAR is one of those events but i hate nascar. what i am talking about is Tractor Pulls. yes good old fashion lets see how much that tractor can pull till it stops Country Sport. i just w For those of you that have never heard of or seen Tractor Pulls its my delight to tell you all about them.  The basic premise of Tractor pulls is they hook the tractor up to a sled that at a slight angled track on it that track is a large amount of weight when they start pulling it the box of weight moves toward the top of the sled and the weight of that starts to make the sled dig in the ground so they are not only pulling all that weight but also pulling against the earth. the goal is to pull 300 feet. that is what they call a full pull. but if they pull past 300 they will either do a pull of at the end. which means they add more weight and pull again or they will just do a floating finish which means who ever pulled the farthest wins. but you might as what fun is seeing a tractor pull a sled of weight. OH well thats the one thing i didn’t mention you to you yet. When i say tractor well some of these the only thing they have in common with a tractor is the frame and wheels. People will put any kind of engine on these things can range from a Modified Tractor engine to a Jet Engine i have see ones with 4 hemi’s on it before amazing seeing such power pulling such weight is awesome. its a great thing to see if you really like to see raw power.

other country sporting events:

• monster truck rallys
• crash derbys
• rodeo’s
• and anything with a gun or fishing pole.

That Rod Stewart. . . best days of life song.

So yesterday was a great day for the first time in a long time christina & I did nothing. not the oh we did a little here and there but nothing really got acomplished. i mean nothing we just enjoyed each other all day and im not saying we just screwed all day under the sunset kind of spending time with each other either. We slept in watch movies snacked around. We just had us time sitting around just talking about random crap and nothing important. we were planing going to her family cook out but we didn’t. It was great i don’t know if you ever just spent a whole day just devoted to being with the person you care about but i recommend it. we had a great day one of those days you don’t forget. for those of you know what I’m talking about you know. i don’t have to explain anything. for those of you that don’t im sorry that you have never enjoyed something soo good.
