Hey there everyone! I didn't realize how long it had been since I had written on this page. There is absolutely WAY too much to cover in one post, so I may just have to summarize by saying that we are all still alive and enjoying life.Lynn is super excited about summer almost being here (I can't say I blame her). We have some pretty awesome trips lined up this summer that we have both been

It's official...Summer is o-v-e-r. Lynn had to go back to work this week. She wasn't excited about that at all. These first couple of weeks are always pretty hard on her. I'm trying my best to keep her spirits up, so hopefully she survives. I am excited that I will be getting Bella this Sunday and will get her until Wed. This will be the last time I will get her before she heads back to school in

Well quite a bit has happened since my last post. The most important of which happened most recently. :) I GOT MARRIED!!! I am now the husband to the most wonderful woman on the planet. Lynn and I couldn't be happier with how smoothly things went with the wedding and "reception". All the things we were worried about before the ceremony seemed to just take care of themselves (thanks to friends and

I see that it has been quite awhile since I have posted anything on here. I guess I've relied a little too heavily on Facebook to get my news out to those I love. Well I guess I will throw a little something up here for fun. :)As most of you already know, I will be getting married this summer to my wonderful fiance, Lynn. She has made me the happiest guy in the world. (I also happen to consider

The Tuesday before Thanksgiving, I had to take Bella to the dentist down in St. George. She was excited to go, but I did notice that when we got there she got a little scared. She did, however, handle the appointment like a champ. :) The dentist said she will definitely need braces when she gets a little older (which I already knew because sadly she got MY jacked up teeth) lol. We are going to

Well I had a pretty good Halloween weekend. I had to work Saturday morning, but only until about noon. I got a call from Bella that morning also, she had to tell me the tale of her costume evolution. When she went to school on Friday she was dressed as a princess (beautiful as always)...well I guess some kids made fun of the fact that she wasn't "scary". So she ended up going trick-or-treating as

Here are Bella's poptropica character and my poptropica character. She wants them to get married so we are Frankenstein and the Bride of Frankenstein. What great characters to be for the month of Halloween!Much Love,Chad and Bella-boo.

Here is a picture of Bella on her first day of school. She started first grade this year and has been doing very well. She has always loved going to school. I am glad that she enjoys it. She is one smart little cookie and I am very proud of her. :) Sorry it has taken so long for me to get an update on here. Not a whole lot has been going on with me.

Well, the time has finally come. Bella has lost her first tooth! :) She is super excited. She told me that it didn't even hurt when Krissy pulled it out with the string. I'm way happy for her. She wouldn't stop playing with that tooth at Lagoon. lolIn other Bella related news, she is NOT moving down to St. George this summer. She and I both are totally bummed about it. She misses her cousins

So I do have a couple of things that I think should be discussed here. The first thing is that I have met a wonderful girl named Lynn. We have been dating for a bit now and it has been a long time since I've been this happy. I WAS going to wait until I had a picture of the two of us together, but I just can't wait for that to happen (Lynn isn't a fan of photos of herself...Sorry babe, had to tell

Here is Bella playing on the Jesienouski's new Wii Fit. She had fun on the hula hoop and ski jump games. This particular video is a game where you tilt the board and try to get your "marble" to fall into the hole. It was fun to watch her. And here is a picture of her posing on the balance board:

Yes I've done it...I've gone and joined the World o' Twitter. I'm sure some of you don't know what that is...it is basically a site that lets you keep your friends/family informed of what you are doing throughout your day (in bursts of 140 characters.

Well, as usual, not a whole lot has been going on with me. I have just been working and lazing about as usual. The most exciting things for me to happen lately, I guess, would have to be the recent purchase of a new bed. For the past 3 years I've talked about getting a new bed. I just kept putting it off and putting it off. So I called this store down in St. George (the mattress gallery) and

So today is my Bella's 6th birthday. I can't believe how much has happened in the years since has been born. I was lucky enough to have her for quite a bit of time over the last two weeks. It was the most I'd been able to see her in quite some time. We had lots of fun. We tried out some new video games. She really likes the new one I had called A Kingdom for Keflings. :) She played that thing for

I know, I know. This blog has taken me WAY too long to post. Every time I would look at the pics to try and decide which ones to post, I would just get overwhelmed and then I would just tell myself, "I can just do it tomorrow". Next thing I knew it was 3 weeks later and still no post from me. So here are some of the pics from Christmas in Holden. :) Here is Bella on Christmas Eve in her new pjs:

I hope everyone is having a great day with their friends and family. I've been having a great time with Bella. She enjoyed getting her new bike. :) I will have to post some pictures later when I get more time.

Well it has finally happened. Bella got her ears pierced this last weekend. Sorry the picture isn't very good. It's from a cellphone. She said it hurt a little but Krissy says that Bella was very brave. :) Much Love,Chad

As most of you know, my Thanksgiving this year was pretty much non-existent. I didn't have Bella this year, so that kinda kills it as being a holiday right there...but other causes were that I had to go into work at 5am and then because I'm trying to save up enough leave hours for Christmas time, I ended up having to stay to work until early afternoon. I, luckily, had my laptop there with me so I

So last week I got to spend the weekend with Bella. I had a blast seeing her again. I took the weekend off of work so I could head up to Orem. Krissy dropped Bella off on Friday night at my dad's house, where we stayed all weekend. One of our funnest* activities was the fort building that we got to do in the living room. As you can see...here's the little goofball sticking her head out the door

Well not much has been going on since my last update. I've mainly just been working. Bella has started kindergarten and she loves it. I haven't talked to her in awhile so I will have to put more on here once I hear from her. Sorry about this one being so short, but when nothing is happening...nothing is happening. Much Love,Chad

I took some time off work this week so I could spend some time with Bella before she starts kindergarten. I headed up to my mom's on Sunday night after work and Krissy sent Bella down to Holden with her friend Terrell(sp?). I was very happy to see her. We spent a few days at my mom's house. This trip was mainly focused on Bella getting to spend some time with her grandparents before school. Bella

In about two weeks, Bella will be starting Kindergarten. I can't believe it has come to be that time already. Next thing I know...she'll be graduating college. lol I am excited that I get her for all next week. I'm taking some days off of work to be able to spend more time with her now since I'm not sure how I'll be able to work out seeing her during school. We'll be trying to come and see the

Geoff and I went out and played 9 holes today. I, as usual, started out pretty good, but towards the end I was sucking it up. lol I did, however, still beat Geoff by 9 strokes. It was good to finally get out on the course. I played the whole round with the same ball, which is a HUGE win for me. lol That means that I didn't have to spend much time in the dirt and weeds looking for my shot.

They found a great little place just a couple of buildings behind me. I was glad that I could help them out by giving them a place to stay and some help when moving all their stuff out of the storage unit. We came away with a couple of injuries, but should all recover quite nicely. D&G: Anytime you guys need anything...you just have to ask. :) I'm always glad to help friends out. Much love,Chad

So it has been a few weeks since my last post. I would say things have been busy, but realistically they haven't. A few note-worthy events have occurred though. Dez and Geoff have been living with me for a week now. (if you want the full story follow the link to their blog "Chesnut blog") It's been fun having them here. We've been rocking out to Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock. I had never

So there are a few things I'd like to cover in this post. First off, I'd like to welcome Dez and Geoff back to the state of Utah (where they belong). It was good to see them when they stopped to empty the majority of their belongings into a storage shed. I am excited to have them heading back to Cedar this summer. Next, I would just like to say what an awesome job Anje did in "Grease Jr." last

That I shall attempt to fix my Xbox 360 on my own. I have step by step instructions and they seem pretty easy to follow. I am just waiting for the kit to arrive (should be here tomorrow). I'll have to let you know how it turns out. The above photo is how my Xbox has been sitting for about two days now. I decided to get a headstart on the repair process. :) Wish me luck!Much Love,ChadUPDATE:

It has happened. My xbox 360 has taken the hit that thousands of xboxes have suffered before..The infamous Red Ring of Death!!! I have been pretty lucky thus far. Most of the early adopters of the 360 are already on their 4th or 5th xbox by now. The RRoD is thought to be caused by the solder joints between the motherboard and the GPU coming apart due to heating and warping of the motherboard. So

I recently came across this video by a guy named Johnny Lee. It is pretty awesome what he came up with using about $10 of extra hardware for the Wii Remote. Check it out:

Well I've been officially "tagged" by Dez (thanks a lot :p) So here we go:10 YEARS AGO:I would be just finishing up my 2nd year of college, which would mean I was moving out of the Village (aka Meat Market as my friend Ruth used to call it). I would have been working at the college for over a year then and STILL not knowing what I wanted to do with my life. lol5 THINGS ON MY TO DO LIST TODAY:1.

Well here it is....another wonderful spring day and I'm stuck inside the airport. :p Yay me! I had a great time with Bella last week when she was here. We had a blast hanging out together. There was lots of driving involved, but she seemed to handle it very well. We just took along the little princess computer that Dad & Pam gave her (for Christmas, I believe) and we would listen to the songs on

So I just got done watching No Country For Old Men and can I just say that is probably one of the worst cinematic endings I have ever seen. Prepare to be extremely disappointed with the "wrap-up" of the plot. This is just going to go on my list of movies that won "Best Picture" that I hate. I do have to give Javier Bardem some credit though. He played an awesome villain in this movie. Within the

So I am finally out of the Malibu. All I can say is HALLELUJAH!!!! I was looking at getting a nice mid-size SUV, but when I test drove some of them I just liked the feel of the Dodge Durango better. It feels more sturdy and it also had less road noise than the others. The downsides to getting rid of the Malibu are that I now have a car payment and this thing is VERY, VERY thirsty. Huge gas tank (

I just received my new 42" LCD 1080p HDTV. It is awesome. I can't believe the difference from my old tv. I tested the difference with my old tv using Assassin's Creed on my Xbox 360. With my old tv I couldn't hardly read the writing on the screen. Clues to where my assassination target was were barely legible, but on the new tv......DANG!!! It is crystal clear. I love it. I recommend a HDTV to

So in two days Bella will be turning 5. I can't believe how fast these years have gone by. When I talk to her on the phone she sounds like such a little lady now. I am definitely blessed to have her as my daughter. She is by far the greatest thing that has ever happened to me (and that ever WILL happen). I still don't know what I am going to get her for her birthday. I'm sure we'll find something

Well I guess since the "dead blogs" have been resurrected, I may as well put up my first post of the new year. :)My holiday season was okay. A little depressing at times, since I didn't get to see Bella for most of them. I had her with me the week before Christmas and then she and Krissy moved the weekend before Christmas and with work and everything I couldn't find time to get up there to see

Figured it was a good time to put up another post. I have had an awesome week this past week. I got to see lots of family, friends and I even turned 30. I gotta say....not as bad as some people make it out to be. :)It all started last Wed. (Dec. 12th), Brandy took me out to dinner and we went to see The Golden Compass. Pretty good show (don't worry, God doesn't die in the first movie). We went to

Well it's been a month since my last post, so I figure I may as well alert anyone to the new stuff going on in my life. There isn't any. j/kBella and I went up to my mom's house on the Tues. before Thanksgiving and I helped her set up her new 42" LCD flat panel tv(About time she upgraded...sheesh). The picture didn't really look overwhelmingly different, but that is mainly due to the source of

Well, since Mom decided to bug me about getting some new info on here...here ya go. I know pretty much everyone in the family knows about my current situation, but I have a wonderful new girlfriend named Brandy (pictured with my ugly mug..lol). I've never been happier than I am now. :) I met Brandy on an online dating site back in early September. We went on our first actual date in early October

This post is to appease Tonya's curiosity. I have purchased Halo 3, but will not play it until Bella is asleep tonight. I had a blast playing the Multiplayer Beta with Geoff during the summer and I from what I've seen the campaign and all the other features look pretty cool as well. Now if a CERTAIN UNNAMED FRIEND would buy a Xbox360 and Halo3 then I would have somebody to play against....(not so

Sometime last week my passenger side windshield wiper motor decided to take a permanent vacation. I don't know how it happened, but the motor pretty much split in two. So I had to get that fixed pretty quickly since the weather will be getting worse from here on out. Plus I didn't feel safe having Bella in a car where the wipers wouldn't work. Took my car in this morning and they told me they

I guess it is about time for me to post another...post. (Should have thought that sentence through more before I typed it out) Anyway, this last month has been a little busy. Geoff and I tried to get some last minute golfing in before he had to head back to Phoenix for his last year of law school, so we headed down to St. George to play at Sky Mountain Golf Course. While we were hitting some

Well, Bella can officially ride her bike now WITHOUT training wheels. Krissy has been doing a great job of teaching her how to ride. She still needs a little help with the takeoff and she doesn’t quite have confidence going down hills yet, but she’ll get there. I’m very proud of her. Also in Bella news, she is doing MUCH better on recognizing letters and numbers. Krissy bought her the "Letter

Well I know I haven’t been the best blogger as of late, but it’s summertime and it is always better to get out and be doing things rather than sitting in front of the computer. First off, this last week, Geoff and I went golfing. We ended up playing with a couple of guys from Hildale. We were all doing okay when I FINALLY got a LEGIT birdie on a par 5 hole. If I would have had a shorter 2nd shot

Well I just thought I’d give everyone an update on how big Bella is getting. I took her in last week to have a wellness check done and she is now 46 1/2 inches tall and 52 lbs. and 2 oz. Of course this places her well off the charts, but that comes as no surprise to any of us. This last weekend was spent helping my mom move her fence back 35 ft....I survived....nuff said.Hope all is going well

I'm an avid gamer. So of course I'm gonna get excited when I hear earlier in the year that they are going to be releasing a Halo 3 Multiplayer Beta to the public. They gave 3 ways to get access to the Beta...1) Win a contest and receive the invite 2)Play so many hours of Halo 2 on certain days and be entered to win an invite or 3) Purchase a copy of a videogame called "Crackdown". So I chose to

NEVER buy a Chevy Malibu. Since purchasing my car I have had to replace the rack and pinion not ONCE, not TWICE, but now officially THREE times now. On my way home from work yesterday I completely lost my power steering. I was hoping that it was just a hose leak or at the worst a seal in the power steering pump, but of course not...it has to be one of the most expensive things I've had to fix on

what could be making your car engine squeal....I suggest looking under the hood. You'll never know what you may find. Like this...My belt had shredded into two halves. Right down the middle and as you can see the pulley was completely missing off the end of my tensioner. The guy was surprised that I had driven it two days with it in this condition. And this is what it is SUPPOSED to look like:So

As I’m taking Isabella back to St. George I hear this funny little squeak coming from my engine. I figure it will be okay by the time I get back up to Cedar (I know it sounds like I’m setting up this story like there was a huge explosion, but I assure you there wasn’t). Well I meet Krissy at Worthen Park and say my goodbyes to Bella and as I start my car a sound emits from my engine that would

Well I have finally returned from my trip to California. I got home at about 12:30 AM. I was exhausted by the time I reached halfway between Cedar and St. George, but I made it home and am GLAD to be back. I had a great time in San Francisco. Right as soon as we left the airport we headed to Pier 39 and ate at Bubba Gump’s. Then we just walked around Pier 39 and then headed up to Fairfield. The

Well I am getting ready for my trip to California. This will be the first time I’ve ever been to the San Francisco area, so it should be fun. Hopefully I will be able to get at least SOME good photos while I’m down there. I’ll be there from this Saturday until Tuesday. I’m really excited to finally get to meet my friend Amanda.

I have finally purchased a Digital-SLR camera. It’s a little treat for myself this year. I am hoping to learn more about photography this year so this camera will be a great investment. I chose to buy a Nikon D50. My friend uses one and she absolutely loves it. Plus I figure I can get pointers from her (which will just mean trips to Salt Lake every now and again). It was fun at Bella’s b-day

Had a few issues with setting up the Media Center portion of it last night, but just finished that up this morning and now it is running smoothly. We are also having Bella’s 3rd party for her 4th birthday today. I bought her a Leapster (educational gifts...gotta love ’em). I hope she likes it. I am sure that she will. Also, Dad,

Well it is officially Isabella’s 4th birthday. Now granted it is only 1:30 in the morning and for some odd reason I am not asleep. I will be getting there right after I post this. We are still planning on having a little family get together on Saturday, February 10th to have her 3rd party so far, but as Dad once told me...."Stretch out the celebration of your birthday as long as you can".

Here are the plans for Bella's birthday. This coming Friday (Feb. 2nd) Krissy is having a party for Bella and her little friends. Taylor, Shaylie, and Anje are all invited. I believe it is going to be some sort of princess party. Then the following day, Krissy is having a party for Bella with her family...so I have decided to throw Bella's party on Saturday Feb. 10th.

Well I have survived the 2006 Holiday Season. Overall it was a good one. I had a blast spending so much time with Isabella. She really enjoyed all the gifts she received. She was excited to get her "Glo E Bear" with the wand. I was surprised I was able to get everything home in my car. (Thank goodness I took the rocking horse home last week)I also want to thank everyone for the wonderful gifts

Since there seems to be some confusion about the Bella picture...let me explain (and this is all in good fun). A couple of you have been wondering where I went to get Bella's picture taken....I didn't have to go too far. I just walked into her bedroom. :)Yes that's right..I took the picture. I know some of you have heard me say how I don't take portraits or have been too afraid to take them, but

This picture is for everyone who wants one. I personally think it is one of the cutest pictures of Bella that I have seen in a long time. Make sure you click on the picture and then download it. And if that doesn't work then tell me and I will email it to everyone. Much Love,Chad

So here it is...DECEMBER ALREADY!!! I can't believe how fast this past year has gone by. It seems like I took a nap and the whole year has just passed me by. But I am happy that it is Christmas time again (even though I am NOT close to done with shopping...seeing as how I haven't even started yet. :)) Well I'm making this one short. It's my nap time. :) (and yes I know it is only 8AM). LOLMuch

So here it is another holiday and I'm stuck at work. And on top of that this last week we switched to a new schedule that has YET to have an ontime departure. I am hopeing I will be able to get out of Cedar around 2pm, so I can drive up to Holden, see my family, and then drive back to Cedar to go to work the next morning at 5AM. (Sounds like fun, huh?) Let's just say I'm not too impressed with

Well after attending one of the "most exciting" training classes at my work...I headed down to St. George for a chiropractor's appointment. I found out that instead of the 60 degree curve (that I should have in my neck) I have about a 19 degree one, THUS creating a lot of stress on my brain stem and neck muscles. And I hate to say it but I think that the cost of getting the problem fixed is just

So if you will all remember about my REALLY bad headaches that I used to get about 4-5 years ago, you will remember that they used to practically knock me out of commission. Well, they came back about a year ago and have been gradually getting worse and worse. So this last week I went to a chiropractor in St. George to see what he had to say about it, so for $20 I got a initial consult and he

Bella had lots of fun on Halloween this year. She dressed up as a lovely "Sleeping Beauty". Everyone she hugged was left with a "sparkling aura" around them (aka Glitter Everywhere). We went out to Tonya's and went Trick or Treating with the cousins for about a half hour or so (which is PLENTY of candy for a 3 yr old). We then went to Chili's and had dinner with Scott and Becki. Bella was

So Bella and I wake up this morning and what should we see outside but SNOW!!! That's right....the first snowfall of the winter season. Bella was pretty excited to see it. Not much is going on here this week. Just chillin' at home and such. I hope everyone is having fun preparing for Halloween. That will be creeping up on us here pretty soon. As will the "changing of the clocks". Not so sure how

Well yesterday I went down to St. George and had a nice visit with Tonya's clan, Dad and Pam, and Anissa's twosome...it was good to see everyone. Bella had fun playing with the cousins and jumping on the trampoline. I had my "end of the year" review yesterday at work. According to my scores and everything else we figured I should be getting about a 7-7.5% pay raise in Jan. Not too shabby. Hope

Happy Friday the 13th to everyone. I have NEVER been so happy for this day to come (the only reason being that it is NOT the 12th, which SUCKED). So I got up to go to work yesterday at 4:30AM and due to crew and plane issues I was at work until 12:30pm. So I went home for my little break until 3:45, when I headed back to work for the night flight. And the plane, after being delayed so much this

FINALLY DONE!!! My mom and I got started this morning getting her roof done. We were resealing it with an aluminum roof sealant. It didn't take as long as we thought it would, but that is a good thing. (We may not have done it quite the way we were supposed to, but we are done and that is the most important thing). I know after you all read Anissa's blog that you are gonna give me crap for not

Just wanted to put down a quick note...I don't have bella this week, cuz Krissy is going to Denver for two weeks on Sunday to train for her new job. So she won't get to see Bella for two weeks. But I did get to see Bella on Sunday. I went up the canyon with Krissy, Bella, and some of Krissy's family. It was fun. We had lunch and went on a little mini hike up to the kids' pond at Woods Ranch. That

Just to inform those few that read this thing. I have posted a new "work in progress" on my other page. My friend in D.C. wanted me to tell her a story and this is what I have come up with. I am still working on the other part/s so bear with me. Also, last week Krissy was not feeling well on...Thursday night(could have been Wed. night). Well she ended up going to the emergency room that night and

So here is Bella's first pet. Her papa Scott bought it for her up at Oktoberfest and YES Bella named him Chucky or Mr. Krabs. We aren't sure yet. We will just call him Mr. Chucky Krabs. Bella likes looking at him but she won't hold him in her hand. He is staying with me but he will be moving down to Krissy's shortly. It is WAY too cold here for him.Hope you all enjoy the pic.

So this morning I went to Cedar City's 2nd Annual SkyFest. I woke up at 5:30 and took a shower. The festivities were supposed to start at 6:30. Well silly me actually thought that something would start on time here in Cedar. I arrived at Bicentennial Park around 6:15. There were only about 10 people or so there (NONE of them were the balloon people). So I sit down on this rock next to the trail

Well I spent the morning playing with Bella. She played "the Marble game" again. She loves playing that game. Then we went down to St. George for the afternoon. I spent a couple of hours at Tonya's house and Bella always loves hanging out there. She would have stayed the night if we would have let her. I am still trying to decide what to do for my vacation. I have thought about going out and

So you all want a brief glimpse into the life of Chad eh? Well, I have officially cancelled my trip to Arizona. There are two main reasons why I did so...1) My enging has started to make a knocking sound. It is off and on right now and I am taking my car in next week to figure out what it is exactly and 2) Seeing as how Bella just barely got back from a long trip I don't quite think she is up for

So Marchelle and I went to see PULSE today. Don't bother. Unless you wanna sit through an hour and a half of BOREDOM. Wait...I take that back. There were some pretty humorous parts in it...only cuz the people act so freakin' cheezy. So keep your money in your pocket. I took Bella back to Krissy's last night then afterwards I went to see Tonya. My visit ended up being about 3 hrs long. I wasn't

The following story is from an adventure I had on Saturday (August 12, 2006). Tonya wanted a new post so I am just bringing everyone up to date:I went on a hike with my friend from work Casey. We went up Kanarraville Canyon. It was a nice little slot canyon that had a good amount of water coming down it. Now stupid me was like, "Oh, let me take some pics while we are up there".

I am very much so looking forward to my days off. Bella is going to see Grandma and Papa Great for a few days. So I am just going to lounge on my butt and not worry about anything. Yay for me. Yesterday I went up Beaver Canyon for the first time EVER. I liked it. I couldn't believe how much more green it is up there than it is up Cedar Canyon. The main reason being that the "bark beetle" hasn't

Hey everyone, just thought I would drop you a little line and tell you how things are going. First off, Bella is here with me and as always we are having a blast. Next week she is going to spend some time up at Grandma's and the Great's house. They want to see her and I figure since school is starting back up this would be the perfect time for her to go see them again. And then again on the 18th

Well I went to my 10 yr. reunion on Monday and I have to say I had a blast. It was great seeing all my old friends. The evening started with a little mingling from everyone. Then we feasted on some dutchoven chicken and potatoes, rolls, and a salad. And for dessert they served up some yummy dutchoven peach cobbler. After dinner, we did the "stand up and tell us about yourself" speeches. It was

Well it's Father's Day and I am excited to get to see Bella for at least a little while this week. I can't say that I have too much planned for Father's Day though, just working and picking up Bella later tonight. But I am sure that it will be a good day anyway. Happy Father's Day to my dad, Roger. I don't think I could ask for a better dad. You are always there for me when I need you to be(and

Well we are excited to get up to Lagoon again this year. It should be lots of fun. It'll be nice to see (almost) everyone again. Also, I am going to go to dinner with an old friend from high school. Haven't seed her in like 11 yrs or so. So it will be good to catch up on the happenings of our lives. (Nothing romantic, just friends). Anyways, Bella and I are sitting here trying to decide what to
