Everyone's Obsessed

Last night I came home after work and Noelle and Russ had taken it upon themselves to create their own 'Wii Mii's' and were in the middle of a golf game.

Noelle has been practicing her drumming skills on Rock Band. She was so excited when I let her join me on tour the other night.

This was her first attempt at drums last week. Yowza. Sorry Noelle, but I couldn't help it.

Rock Band

I went to Steph's house this past weekend to help her out while Lincoln had to go to the hospital with croup. Here he is in his baby hospital gown.
Then I discovered Rock Band. Obsessed. That's what I am. We Rock Band-ed it up all weekend. So then when I got back home, I needed to get it for myself - yes Danielle, I said 'needed'.


Here's a bird's eye view of 'the band'.


Ryken getting in on the action. Notice his fauxhawk courtesy of me.
All the kids are getting good. Teagan is awesome at the drums. It's a sight to see. It's not super easy getting the foot petal in there along with both hands. Especially when he likes to mix it up and go 'lefty mode'.


It's also a sight to see Noelle try the drums...but I will refrain from posting that video clip, you're welcome Noelle.

All Steph's boys have super cool 'long' hair right now, it's fun to play with. Any longer though, and they'll look like the Beatles.

I saved a life...yet again.

I did it again. I saved another life. Yesterday I donated blood with Candice. We went to IHop with her brother before-hand then met up at the Red Cross. The 50ish year old guy that drew my blood was being trained, so I knew he obviously hadn't stuck many people and I could tell he was nervous. Being a former phlebotomist myself, I was patient, trying not to show my slight nervousness considering that the needle gauge when you donate blood is ginormous. I felt bad, it took him forever, and when the blood started going through the tube when he finally stuck me, he was excited. I asked the girl that was training him if I was his first one, she said 'yes' - yowza.


Candice, Jared, and I raced to see who could fill a pint of blood the fastest - I dominated with 4 min. 35 sec. biotches! Here's me and Candice showing off our blood donating guns.
