I didn't get a trim like McKall wanted to do (yes it has been 3yrs since i have done that too)-hair ladies don't be lookin at my split ends!

He makes me pretty happy....

Missing a Missionary :

Missions are hard for any of the loved ones that are sending off a missionary. Moms, dads, brothers, sisters or the "special friend"...

We need to stick together and remember how great missions are and all the good they bring to both the missionary and the people back at home. It's a time of growth. So many blessings come from serving a mission! Though it is hard saying goodbye, we need to remember the greatness that comes from a mission, and to rely on the Lord in all things.

P.S.

Manda you are loved and have so much support from your family, soon to be family(desi butt) your friends, from me and from our Heavenly Father. Remember this is both good for you and for Parker!

Good Luck Elder Williams

Thought two for Tuesday:

Too good not to share:

I am a disciple of Jesus Christ. I won't look back, let up, slow down, or be still. I no longer need pre-eminence, positions, promotions, or popularity. I don't have to be right, first, recognized, praised, regarded, or rewarded. I now live by faith, lean on His presence, walk with patience, am uplifted by prayer, and labor with power. My face is set, my gate is fast, my goal is heaven. My road is narrow, my way is rough. My companions are few, my guide is reliable, my mission is clear. I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away, divided, or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, hesitate in the presence of the adversary, negotiate at the table of the enemy, ponder at the pool of popularity, or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I won't give up, shut up, or let up until I have stayed up, stored up, and paid for the cause of Christ. I must go till He comes, give till I drop, preach till all know, and work till He stops me, and when He returns for His own, He will have no problem recognizing me, my banner will be clear."
-Henry B. Eyring

April 20, 2011 Elder in the Making:

I love doing ode's to the people i love. Todays ode is for my little string bean Spencer Allan Dahl! He was called to serve in the Independence, Missouri Mission and leaves April 20 of THIS YEAR! I can't believe that he is going on a mission and that he is leaving so soon! He has been my pal my whole life and i am so glad my parents decided to bring him to our family so i could have a friend to play with the rest of my life! I love you Spencer and couldn't be more proud that you and worthy and ready to change peoples lives in Missouri!

Spiritual thought for Tuesday:

"I don't worry too much about the future, and I don't worry too much about the past.

The past is gone, and you can't change, can't correct it.
The future, you can anticipate it, but you can't necessarily do very much about it.

It is the present you have to deal with.

Reach out for every good opportunity to do what you ought to do."

-President Gordon B. Hinkley

Missing Mr. Messam...

How do you get through losing the one you love?

Lately i have been reading because yes i don't go to school anymore so instead of reading textbooks like the past 4years i have moved

on to literature. Right now I am reading "Between a rock and a hard place". Its the book about the man( aron) who was hiking in moab and a boulder fell on his arm and in order to survive he cut his arm off. A film was produced about Aron's experience, its called 127(here for trailer) i have been looking forward to seeing this for about a month maybe more. But yes the reader inside me told me to read the book first. So here i am reading it. The following quote is from this amazing book. Aron is actually quoting a passage from another book, "Into the wild".

"So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. the joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have and endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and difference sun."

I have always had a love and passion for adventure especially for the outdoors...so to say the least this is a huge motivator for me!!! Be happy and live life!

Oh baby boy...

This picture a little bit reminds me of Daisy Duck...

but no its Curt!!!

a comment from my great friend Calab! Some asked him some questions which got him to thinking about the following:

1: When people point to their wrist when they ask you what time it is. I know where my freaking watch is pal, where is yours. When I go to Wal-mart, I don't point at my crotch when I'm asking for the bathroom.
‎2: People who are willing to get off the arse to search an entire room for the remote control when they could have just as easily pushed the buttons on the TV in half of the time.
3: When people say, "It's the last place you look." NO SHIT SHERLOCK!!! Why the freak would you keep looking after you found it. Do people actually do this?! Who are they?
‎4: When you go to the movies and your friend leans over and says, "OMG did you just see that?!" No idiot... I just paid 8.50 to sit in a dark room with uncomfortable seats and stare into the back of my eyelids.
‎5: When people ask, "Can I ask you a question?" Didn't give me much of a choice on that one did you sunshine?
‎6: Ads that say something is "New AND Improved." Well?? Which is it. If it's new, then there hasn't been anything before it that could have been improved. And if it is improved that implies that it isn't new, but just upgraded.
‎7: When people say life is short... ARE YOU FISTING ME?! LIFE IS THE LONGEST THING WE DO!! What do people do that is any longer? I REALLY WANT TO KNOW.
‎8: When you are waiting for the bus and people would ask you, "Has the bus already come yet?" Lights on but nobody's home. Would I be here if it had come?
‎9: When people say, "My eyes aren't what they used to be.." What did they used to be? Ears?
‎10: When you are eating something and somebody asks if it is good. No good sir. It is absolutely revolting. I love eating things I hate.
11: When people announce that they are going to the toilet. Thank you for that image I really didn't need.
‎12: McDonalds staff that pretend like they don't know what you are talking about unless you preface every word with Mc... How about I grab a Mcstraw and Mcstab it into your Mcfreaking Mceye. Comprende?
13: When I order fast food or gas and they ask me if I need a receipt. There is a money back guarantee that I won't be returning your merchandise.

14: When I go skateboarding/snowboarding and I eat crap. Inevitably one of my friends will run up and while doing nothing but standing over me ask me if I'm alright. After I fell on the concrete I decided that it kinda reminded me of my down feather pillow and I thought I might take a little nap right here right now... NO I'M NOT ALRIGHT!!!
‎15: When people ask me if they can borrow a tissue.... no but you can have one. I don't want it back after you have rubbed your snot all over it. Not one of my fetishes...

wow i love him, made my friday much better! Great start the the weekend!
