Jayda's new game...


So Sunday's at our house are lazy days. We hang out and recouperate from our long week and spend some much needed family time together. This usually invovles giving lots of love and attention to Jayda. She has to play with all of her toys, wrestle with her Dad, eat Sunday dinner (she gets whatever we eat on Sunday), lots and lots of belly rubs and naps. Today was no different...except for one thing. She didn't want to play with any of her toys today. So, she and her Dad came up with a new game using a spare piece of pipe that was lying around. I'm not sure what we call this game, but it is pretty simple. Buzz barks at her through the pipe and she sticks her head in the pipe to try and give him kisses. She was getting mad because she couldn't quite reach him through the pipe and kept trying to stick her head in farther. She finally gave up and decided to take a nap, but not until we had a pretty good laugh. You gotta love Jayda! There is never a dull moment. I had to share a picture with you so you can laugh along with us.

I told you we were boring...

So, in 5 days I have nothing interesting to Blog about. I told you we have pretty boring lives. We been doing nothing but working. I've been in my SGU office (that is St. George to non-flying folk) since Monday and didn't get back until last night. On the bright side, I finished a training module I've been putting together for the last 6 weeks. Now maybe I can quit working on it in my sleep and get some rest. Buzz is busy working in the dirt now the rain has finally stopped. Jayda has been home being a pissy puppy. She can't go to work with Buzz on his current job because it is right on the highway. After 2 run-ins with vehicles we thought she would be safer at home. Not to mention saving on Vet bills. Hopefully, the weekend will be more entertaining. Tomorrow we get to SLC for the car race!

FYI-Air Show at Hill AFB next Saturday. We're going if anyone wants to come with.

Happy Memorial Day...


In all the fun of holiday weekend its easy to forget the purpose of Memorial Day! I first want to say Thank You to all of men and women who have fought and died for our Country...past and present. I'd also like to thank our troops who are currently serving. I especially want to express my gratitude to my friends who are on active duty. They risk their lives everyday to keep our skies and borders safe. I'm very grateful for the sacrifices they and their families have made for our Country. I'm very proud to have them as friends and I pray they..and all our soldiers...come home safe and sound. God Bless them and America.!
May we never forget the price of Freedom...

What did we do for the Holiday Weekend? A little of everything. We went to the Hill Air Force Museum (yup, again!) and then we went to Night of the Museum 2. We spent Sunday morning helping Grandma Sybil with flowers (my favorite part of Memorial Day!). Then we got to hang out with the rest of our families. It was tons of fun! Especially playing Clue with Seth and Lyra. I couldn't of done it without my helper Pyper. I also got to hang with Hannah and play "Beauty Salon".
As for today, well holiday is almost over :( I'm getting ready to head to the airport to catch a flight, Buzz is hanging out, and Jayda...Well, this is what Jayda is doing right now.



She's a little tuckered out from playing with the kids and Evona. Its a rough life!

Family Band...!


(I know...not a band pix, but I forgot my camera)


This week our family has been supporting the Arts. First Kassidy's piano recital and last night was our nephew Christian's band concert. Christian did awesome on his Clarinet and proved you can be cool and be in band. We couldn't be prouder of him since he comes from a long-line of Clarinet players...Grandpa Kim, Grandma Jane, and Me (although I was more of a squeaker!) I'm sad to say that this was Christian's last band concert as he is retiring from band...and orchestra (we were hoping to see his return to the viola). He has decided to pursue other "extra curricular" activities in 8th grade. This had me a little worried since my extra curricular activities usually invovled sluffing, but not Christian. He is trying to decide between taking Reading or Shakespear. SERIOUSLY!! I'm have no idea what my sister feeds her children. She is raising a couple of Einsteins.

Move over Mozart...


I have to take a moment to brag. Tonight I went to my nieces Kassidy's piano recital. She did amazing and she played a very complicated piece called Caribbean Surf. I would have been amazed to hear anyone play that arrangement, but the fact it came from her left me in complete awe. She is only 11! Kassidy is becoming a very accomplished pianist. I'm so very proud of her.




Here It Is!!

So after much anticipation, here is the debut of the Buzz and Kari Blog...Jayda too. I decided it was time to join in on all the blogging fun. I need something to do with all my extra time when I'm on the road. I can't promise much content as we lead a pretty boring life. It will, however, contain a lot of Jayda. I need something to do with all the adorable Jayda pix in my camera. She is the center of our universe after all. Hope you enjoy!!
