Well it's here, comming to you fresh off the press i know you've all been patiently waiting so without further adu here it is!
1. i can't beleive how much you all rock and your 100 lists were awsome!
2. I miss you alll sooo much, even doug sometimes because i hardly ever see him
3. I might miss emily and Katie the most, i regret that i don't see them more because every time i do they have both grown so much and i feel like i'm missing out.
4. Jen and Ashley come visit me with yoru damn kids more often
5. mom stop calling our home phone number (this goes for all of you) and call me/us as much as you want, we may be busy lots but once in a blue moon we might have some time so you better be calling during that period
6. Ross and Doug, i'm proud that you both have very cool poultry and that they're both hot and you're both very happy with them
7. I haven't had a girlfriend in almost 2 years i think and i'm pretty sure i forget how it works.
8. Rob and corey, i'm so proud of both of you and really feel like you are my brothers, thanks for nocking up my sisters and giving me amazing neices and maybe a little guy some time.
9. you guys are both great and turned out to be amazing fathers, i hope some day i can be a good dad as both of you are
10. this list thing is easy you are all babies
11. shit i'm out of stuff to talk about, how about an 11 list?
12.Ashley and Jen, you are both great mothers and doing a great job of raising your kids, i hope if i ever get a girlfriend and wife and have babies that my wife will do as good a job as both of you have done.
12. ashley you don't have to have a boy we'll all love a little girl as much as her sister and cousin but if you could just give us a little boy i can teach him to punch ross and doug in the junk and play sports and stuff (just incase i never have kids and just borrow yours)
13. Jennifer, i get the impression that you had a tough time with your first child but if you want to have more i'm sure it would be easier so don't be afraid of that. have another if you want to!
14. I am acctually getting to play about half a game for the primer team now after thinking i would never see the feild!
15. beleive it or not i got sick of soccer for a couple months, after nationals i didn't want to play much anymore and i'm still not really into it again but i'm starting to
16. i also can't wait for the brohers camping trip, it's going to be even better this year!
17. sorry the rest of you arn't invited we might have to have a seperate weekend where you're all included
18. this is starting to get tough, i was saving some good ones for later but i might have to delve into them
19. Ashley, the secret to making friends is having fun! people like to have fun and are attracted to other people who are having fun, it's the same for picking up chickens but is really for anything so just make sure you're having fun or pretending you're having fun and people will want in on it, even just have fun playing with emily and don't be serious and it will show.
20. Ross, i'll put you in a microwave you little pot licker.
21. Dad. you're an idiot i don't know how we all turned out so good
22. Jen quit not having confidence you're my idol and like everybody else said i brag about you all the time, even if you're not confident i hope you're happy.
23. acctually i think i brag about each and every one of you.. raised 5 kids without any of them killing eachoter, sucessfull nurse with great family and super fun person to be around, Too smart and funny for his own good(bastard), Raised a little girl with another kid on the way while in school and working. Super good snowboarder and super artistic and creative.
24. in case you guys didnt' figure that out that's basically what i brag about in order mom,jen,doug,ash,ross
25. mom you'll never be alone, even if you live by yourself we'll always be here for you in one way or another and you'll have grand kids around.
26. jen that goes for you too, i may have just used you to get to my poultry but you're an awsome woman with a great family and you'll never be alone, never
27. this is way too serious i haven't made a joke in like 6 questions.
28. I love my job (thanks jen) i have so much fun with my bosses and love the work most of the time
29. i don't think i'll quit construction of some sort even when i start teaching, at first anyway i'll probably work summers doing something like this i like it so much
30. i'm sorry i neglected the blog for so long, i was 80% too busy and 40% too lazy
31. i should be studying because i have a midterm on thursday and i barely know what the class is about.
32. i hope we can all find time together this summer with all of us in one place.
33. i'm finding it very difficult to be motivated to go to school and focus on doing well, i learnt in that class i don't know anything about that i lack intrinsic motivation
34. i'm taking a volleyball/badminton class and starting to realize how much i like playing other sports other than just soccer
35. i miss a lot of my old friends that i was soo close with, you guys are right i have lots of good friends but i miss the guys i grew up with, ashley i don't call them hardly at all
36. even nimmi i don't talk to much anymore and i feel guilty about not calling them enough, thanks i think i'll work on that more
37. mom, thanks so much for everything as i was growing up.. i know you wanted to give me more support in soccer but i think overcomming adversity and working harder has made me a better player and person and helping me to not take things for granted.
38. there's a song i want you to download called "that's what love is" by Damien Marshal and theres anotherone i forget but i'll try to remember it for you later.
39. apparantly i'm not a neat freek anymore there is a 3 foot pile of clothes(mostly clean) in my bedroom right now
40. im almost consistatly over 155 lbs now
41. i have enough alcohol for a small party in the cubbord
42. i can't wait until this time next year when i'll have 8 months off and i can just work and party and maybe travel a bit, heck maybe i'll come visit jen and ashley for a week here or there
43. i'm really annoyed that i still have acne and i'm fighting a losing battle, i'm really self concious about it but i think it's starting to get a little better
44. i can't wait for summer it's gonna be a fun one and i won't have to think
45. Ashley i'm glad you like my religious view, maybe we can start a cult
46. Almost half way there!
47. some guy asked me and ross about our tatoo's at the pool the other day, he thought we were in a gang or something but we explained it to him and he liked it.. made me really happy and i really like it too
48. everybody else seems to really like it too
49. sometimes i want to just give up on soccer and school and just have a regular job and not such huge commitments so i could live more but that usually goes away because i know what i want and i would miss it all
50. our neighbour from down stairs told me yesterday that we nocked a picture off her wall playing fooseball, i'm actually a little proud of that
51. i'm very good at fooseball now, thanks jen and corey, doug can beat me but that's pretty much it.
52. i dont have a lot of feelings to write about sorry
53. I've started to make some really good friends with people in my program which has helped me in school instead of only soccer players
54. i've signed up to do the sun run in vancouver in april. it's a 10k and alot of the Hkin program is doing it and we're getting t-shirts that say "Cap College Hkin - we look good naked" or something like that
55. i can't wait for soccer at cap next year, i'm gonna be one of the 2-3 oldest guys and leading the team hopefully.
56. i'm super excited to go see the canucks game with doug in march it's gonna be sweet
57. it's february 18th, almost 19th and our christmas tree is still up and decorated.. what's with that?
58. ok this is starting to get harder and i'm gonna have to skip some like the rest of you did
60. that's much better, i feel like i'm making progress again
61. Jen thanks for your help witht he ECG lab, you saved my ass on that one
62. Ashley, nice work on the flowers!
63. and i'm super proud that you have your own house and everything already, that's amazing
64. i've been starting to try and figure out why i'm so picky about girls, everybody says that it's good and i should be but i think it may be some deeper problem like commitment issues.. but who cares?
65. i got really drunk on thursday and slept on the little couch pretty much on my face, pretty happy about that.
66. Doug, thanks for all your help with things in school, even if it's just us bullshitting about stuff we've learn't it's come in handy quite a few times, thanks for failing out of u of a so you're taking the same classes of me before so i can use you
67. ashley if you could take some 3rd or 4th year Human Kinetics courses so i can pick your brain too that would be super duper
68. i need to start going to the gym again to get faster and bigger and stronger
69. hehehehehehehe
70. i may be getting older but taht still makes me laugh
71. ross had to tell the woman at the bell store his e-mail address and it was ride_crazy69.. that was awkward and funny
72. ross don't forget to pay your bill or it could fuck my credit up.. thanks big shooter
73. mr plant is doing really well, he's huge now and has many babies.
74. mom you'll have to re pot him after you move here
75. that's 3/4 of the way! woooooooooo
76. mommy, congrats on your finishing your batchlors, not many people would have the guts to go back and do what you did, we're all super proud of you and even if you didn't have enough time to build up a big pention we'll all be rich in the next 10-15 years (or now for jen) so you'll be a-ok
77. ok that's it i'm done, it's a 77 list
78. just trickin! thanks katie i love that one
79. Ashley first of all that girl was crazy i went crazy too, it's nothing to do with being picky.. and i'm not sure when you consider somebody a good friend, just spending lots of time together and everything i suppose. we talk about soccer and poultry mostly but spend lots of time doing stupid stuff like playing cards, the other day a few of us spent about 30 minutes trying to bounce pennies into a pop bottle.
80. make sure you're not being competative and even if you don't agree with something you kind of make it an agree to disagree thing
81. one thing i've realized early in life is how important hapiness is, i hope all of you are happy and doing things that make you happy because i think it is the most important thing in life, forget health and wellness if you're sick and happy then so what.
82. that's another thing i've noticed about girls over the last couple years, i'm really attracted to girls who are happy and silly and fun which i think is awsome.
83. i love you guys, which is amazing considering at one point or another most of us hated each other, we're so lucky things worked out this way and we're all best friends on top of family, i know we've all been through a lot together but i wouldn't trade it for anything i think it has made all of us who we are today.
84......................................... i eat tomatoes occasionally now.. i even tried a grape tomatoe a little while ago.. not too bad
85. this is getting really tough.
86. i'm starting to get sick of the city again, i feel like i need to get out and back to the old grass roots
87. i was born in 1987.. mom quick, which day? just buggin
88. jen i was prtty upset that you moved and sold your house in penticton because i loved that palce, but now i'm so glad you did i think it's soo much better for you and rob and katie, i know i won't be able to see the three of you as much now but hopefully you guys can take more vacations because robs living at home more
89. i just found a 3/4 full 26 of gin on the coffee table, how about that.. i think it's jeremy's
90. thanks all of you for being so supportive of me and my soccer especially mom, i know how hard you worked to give me everything you could and i really appreciate it.
91. i really should be in bed, me and ross work in 7.5 hours, it should be fun i'm glad you're down here to work with me. and by the way aj and aj already know lots about you so you'll be harassed, sorry
92. i didn't realize how many of these i should have wasted in the first half of the 100
93. i bought some really nice shirts the other day with ross, jen you can make fun of me more for being a pretty boy if you want it's pretty true for the most part.. except when i'm working or playing soccer or playing boy scout
94. i really miss chopping wood, can't wait for camping
95. only a few more to go!
96. katie, you're amazig and you can do anything you want, go get em kid. i love you forever!
97. Emily, i know you can't read but i love you!!! i'm sure you'll be a good sister too. don't try to smother your little brother with a pillow. don't throw knives or break light switches but if he swears then go ahead with the bar of soap in the mouth
98. future baby, don't give your mom too hard a time, she's workin real hard and doing really well, try and cut her some slack
99. i got 99 problems but a bitch aint 1 (it's from a jay-z song in case you didn't know)
100. i miss you all and i'm so proud of you all and i hope you all get everything your hearts desire.
101. i win
With our save on more points we got this swing for the girls. It's really cute. It gives me somewhere to put kaylee when were ouside that is in the shade.
This is our new tree. It is a silver maple. It is suppost to be very rapidley growing so it shouldent be to long till we have some shade in the back yard. Well hope you are all doing well. Love ya lots
So here is a pic of my truck - its not a great one and i will try to take some nicer ones tommorow. It is great and is so easy for me to drive- except the clutch weighs a ton!!! Katie loves it too - as does rob. it really is a great family vehicle for us.
yeah I know - we're spoiled rotten and y'all hate us. but shut up - its so cute! We took it out for a rip down the street and through an empty lot. Katie was squeeling with delight - soaked her dad with mud and had a blast. Its a 70cc, made by pantera which i hear is a sub company of artic cat (i thought it was a satanic rock group) anyways we may have convinced our friends down the street to buy one for thier friends too so we can all get together on the weekend and drink beer on thier porch while the kids ride in the field behind thier house. life is good.
one last bit - we ripped to the okanagan for easter and hit the camping gang up summerland on saturday. All the dads took the kids out quading together. Made me happy, proud and a bit sad. They are all such lucky kids and the dads all real men with true hearts.
