My Life 101

In the following pictures you will come to know who I am a little more than ever before... You will see my Moutains... Job's peak is the one I take pictures of the most, my Family... the faithful and strong- it hasn't always been peachy but God is faithful, and my back "wrecking" yard. You are venturing now where some only dare to hear about (JK -it's not that scary, but I garantee you will laugh!)!!!

Mom and Dad... the beautiful and faithful couple of... a long time!! Yes, those are matching shirts and real smiles! What would you expect we are in Rosy's our absolute favorite Mexican restraunt (#8 is my favorite)! Posted by Picasa

I know you don't all believe me when I say my Dad has a pony tail, but he does (as you can see), and I have to say I think that he is quite handsome if I do say so myself. Not a hippie or a biker, just a good Daddy with long hair!!
Does this help you envision my family more Joe? Posted by Picasa

Chance the Monkey ( I know, he has the best monkey face I've ever seen). Son number two of Aaron and Traci! Posted by Picasa

Traci and Aaron... don't worry they are married! Yeah, I know... how cute... Posted by Picasa

Talin (yes, he is teething)... the adorable son of Aaron and Traci... the most recent addition to the family. Posted by Picasa

The cute little family... Joel (the adorable little boy) Bill (the Daddy) and Hollie (my sister and the Mommy). Posted by Picasa

Anthony, Chance and Madison being the dork-muffins that they are. Posted by Picasa

Majestic and beautiful moutains... Posted by Picasa

This was after sunset taken form Hollie and Bill's front yard. Posted by Picasa

Evening of Thanksgiving I was able to capture the beautiful moutains and clouds from my driveway. Posted by Picasa

Night time moutain sky line! Posted by Picasa

My tree (in my front yard). In 3rd grade I wanted a real tree for my room... when I finally got it none of the ornaments were small enough to stay on it. BUT we planted it... and now she is taller than my house and beautiful!! Posted by Picasa

While at home I was able to pick up my niece Madison from school. As a surprise we had lunch and met up with two of her friends from church (who just so happen to be sibblings of my friends Whitney and Klinttin) and saw Your, Mine, and Ours. It was a blast!! Posted by Picasa

Reasons to go home... "wrecking" back yard (JK), Sage Brush (JK- I'm allergic), Chance (fo real- he is adorable, I know and all the fam!), and the view of the mountains. Posted by Picasa

Chance (#3/5 nephews)... as you can see he was disappointed at what the elements had done to his perfectly good 3 wheeler tire. Posted by Picasa

Don Pollard at Thanksgiving... He is cool. He is a friend of the family and we all have been blessed by him being a part of our family!! Posted by Picasa

The traditional Holiday Monkey Bread... I really think it was the most beautiful I had ever seen, it tasted just as good! Posted by Picasa

Back yard tires to go for the cars... don't worry there are more if you don't see your size here... It does make a sweet picture though, pretty cool looking for just being "wrecking" materials... by the way it is not called "junk". Posted by Picasa

My Life continued...

CAUTION... if you continue there is no turning back...

The back "wrecking" yard!

Brooke these posts are for you...

In the following posts I have taken pictures of my back "wrecking" yard. Some people didn't quite believe me when I said my parents have 15 cars... well they shouldn't have, because we actually only have 14 (my mistake- we sold our diesel truck a when I was in Junior High). Now Cars 1, 2, and 3 are not shown... they are the ones we actually use along with #4. Number 1 is my Mom's '89 Suburban... she has an upper class feel to her (especially with the dark windows and black paint job). Number 2 would be the Grand Prix which we bought for $500 for a spare running car when I was at home and needed alternate transportation due to Beretta difficulties. And of course my Beautiful Beretta is the '92 GTZ that comes as car number 3. I hope you enjoy the following redneck (or as my Dad says "Goheen") tradition.

Number 4... Old Faithful...Dad's Toyota. the little girl in this picture is my cousin's daughter Allison... this was the first car she began to play in, but she had mistaken this car for being in the "Wrecking yard" when in reality it was just parked in the back yard to make room. This is my Dad's car that (as you can see the USPS sign) he uses for work. The interior appears to be that of one of the "wrecking cars" but driving the little thing you would never know. Posted by Picasa

Number 5... Traci's Toyota. This was a more recent addition. I was in Junior High when this beauty became a lawn ornament. She really was a good little truck. Anthony had dibs on it... he says he will fix her up. Posted by Picasa

Number 6... I believe that this was my Grandpa's truck. Don't be fooled, her engine may not be under the hood... but wait, did you check the bed? Yep, there it is...the whole thing, and don't worry about the tires, there is plenty more where that came from. Posted by Picasa

Number 7... no clue. Where, when or how... she has just always been there. Posted by Picasa

Number 8... This is the buick. It did run once in my life-time... I think, but not too sure how she found her life here. I dunno, but check out that fashionable pink windshield wiper! Posted by Picasa

Number 9... Yet another no clue car... perhaps something my Dad traded for? No clue... Posted by Picasa

Number 10...the cute one. No sentimental value, I'm not sure where it came from either... Posted by Picasa
