So after many words to describe my belief in pictures I am now going to post several adventures sans photographs. I have been taking pictures with my old school SLR -- that's right with real film -- that show all the fun things we've been doing. As a side note it is fun to use a real camera, it just doesn't offer the same sort of immediacy that digital does.
One such pictureless post is a comment on mothers day. The picture speaks more than I can say. The caption that belongs with the picture is: "Happy Mothers day! Here's a present to make you (Adrianna) feel less than adequate, exemplifying your inability to nurture and keep things alive." Unfortunately, the picture* is still on the roll of film. You'll see it someday, maybe by the end of the month.
The next post that is quite fun and that I do have a picture for.
Extra! Extra! Read all about it! Tod and I were featured in the Daily Herald as avid Provo Rec Center members! (See for yourself!)
The photographer not only caught us working out she also quoted moi!
Additional exciting news relating to our spot on the section front page spot is that I have decided to run the Suncrest Mountain Race with Taralee in September. Tod is helping me amp up our work outs so I can get fit for the marathon training schedule which starts in July (one reason why we're pictured above lifting weights). The marathon is on September 12th, so by then I'll be able to run 13 miles! Yahoo!
The next post: "Look what we're doing with all the Pillsbury rolls we inherited!" The picture* shows the fun we have in the kitchen.
Another post explains that I proudly thought I could repair my poor broken Nikon S10. Well, upon execution of repair Tod and I quickly discovered that this was not a fix-it project, it was a demolition project, with the final result shown here: (insert picture*).
As the last 'post' explains my digital camera is out of commission, hence I use the old-school SLR. One day I'd love to get my hands on a digital SLR, preferably the Nikon D5000 or the Nikon D60.
And that ends the marathon post that is full of text. Soon you'll not only be able to read about our fun adventures you'll be able to see them too! Until then dear readers.
*Pictures soon to be posted as they are developed.

You should be a film maker! It's all about the visuals too...
And this Mother's Day comment - what the heck??
Oh, and the Calgary Herald full spread on you was more complimentary...but then you weren't in grubs.
WHAT! ha ha, that's hilarious that you guys are in the newspaper working out.
at first i couldn't tell waht the pic was (it was little) and i thought it was your kissing UVSC IPOD thingy.
The Mother's Day reference was to a plant that the EQ gave the sisters to nurture...but Adrianna's died.....I assure you that is no sign that you did not inherit a green thumb, it could just be the plant. (watering is always a good thing too!)
I did water it! i think that's what killed it.
