I don't think that there is anything that could be said about this party that is not displayed in the video. Great Job Nicole!!!

iPhone? iPhone!


Not long after the Vegas trip, like the next week my phone blew up. It did this fancy little trick where the screen turns white and does not work. AWESOME!!! Therefore, I decided to bite the bullet and get an iPhone. The problem was that I have a killer plan through t-mobile and I did not want to go with AT&T because they are CRAPPY. Therefore, I studied up on how to hack it to make it work with another server. It is remarkably easy! If you want to get one and need some help hit me up because I would love to help. Anyway, I thought that I would list the pros and cons of the iPhone…so…transition…NOW:


Pros:
Email on the phone. Very handy for business.
Third Party software downloads. I have an amortization calculator on my phone thanks to some computer nerd. It comes in handy. I also have a dictionary, dominos, billiards, eBook reader.
Maps program that has routing capabilities. Being a former delivery boy, I did not think that I would use this very often, but I do and I love it!
Handy for picturesI can keep my most recent and my most awesome photos on the phone i.e. Moustache Party Pics.
It holds my 4-5 star playlist from iTunes with “a bit” of room to spare.
It logs the text messages so you can read back on your conversation. It is like an IM chat log. Really Cool!!!


Cons:
No picture messages. I think that is totally gay! Not like “homosexual” gay, or “happy/jovial” gay but the gay that you use to describe a fanny pack. Just gay. It is the coolest phone but it does not send or receive picture messages. That is totally gay!
The Camera does not take very good pictures. Almost every picture I take is blurry. I think I was spoiled with my Samsung that took killer KA-BLAMO pictures. Maybe I need to work on my dexterity, coordination, or something but I cannot take a steady picture to save my life. If I was taking still life pictures with a tripod mount, it might not be fuzzy.
It does not take video. There is third party software that you can BUY, but who wants to pay for software when someone will make it free in 3 weeks.

All in all, I really like the phone. I love the interface and I love the keyboard. It took a bit to get used to but now I type a lot faster than my old phone pad type thingy on text messages. I have chubby fingers and really do not have much trouble with it.

Vegas, BABY!!!! Vegas!!!!



Therefore, and it came to pass, this last month was full of blessings, tragedies, loves gained and loves lost.

The first weekend of the March the whole family got together in Las Vegas to visit with our cousin Rob; just recently returned from his second tour in Iraq and is going to be stationed in Washington State for the next little bit. It was fun to see Rob! We went to Lawry’s Prime Rib House and were gluttons! It was a BLAST!!! It was sad that Aaron was the only one not there, but when he is not around, I move up the family “coolness” scale – oh, how the mighty have fallen… We went to the Cirque De Sole show “KA” and it was a-freakin-mazing! There was only one thing that bothered me about the show; they tried to and some lame-o story to it. They should have just stuck to doing astounding, astonishingly acrobatic things. I think that when I saw “Mystere” I was more shocked because I had never seen anything like that and they did not force some gay story into it.


Scott and Mitzi drove down from Boise and said that baby Corbin (Mudbone) didn’t make a peep the whole way. I didn’t believe them until we were driving to Vegas and he just gassed out the minute we hit the freeway until we got out of the car at the Venetian in Vegas. What a sleepy baby!?!?!? However, he has to be the cutes piece of work out there. He’s got an dandy of a double chin like his uncle Clark.
