Why the US will never leave Iraq

This is one of the funniest/most pathetic things I have ever seen. I have shared it with many of you in the past, but it always makes me laugh. I can just imagine the soldier that first saw this and said, "Hey guys, have them start over, I need to film this so people back home will realize what we are working with over here."

Much Easier

Hey Buds. This is much easier for me to sign in with my own username.

Yes, I played ward ball for the first time in years. And I was dominant, I can't believe how easy it was for me to play...and be good. I was hitting three pointers, I was driving and making crazy "dipsy doodle" shots. The game went into overtime, but we won. I scored 18 points, and 4 in OT.

Maybe the reason I played so good was this.....the guy guarding me was about 55 years old, he was shorter than my wife, he kept complaining of chest pains, and best of all he was wearing jeans.

I don't care, it felt good to dominate again....

Whats up dudes!!


I am finally posting somthing, but I feel like we should all have our own username and passwords for this account. Nate told me that Liz is the one driving the ship, so is that the case or are we all using the same username and password. All entries on the blog say "posted by woodward fam" Whereas it should say "posted by the legend, Jake Woodward" you follow me.

The REAL date for family home evening....

Hi! We realize that our family home evenings are going to be held the SECOND Monday evening of the month ( at least that is what we are shooting for right now...subject to change of day and/or frequency). We will miss Anna and John who will be in St. George, but we are going ahead anyway with the 11th of Feb. I will prepare a simple main dish and all that goes with it, and assign out two desserts. the dinner will be quick and easy, a quick lesson for little ones, then down stairs for them while we have an adult lesson/discussion. We can have dessert than and go over family business items like vacations, house reservations, upcoming things, etc. Being a school night, we hope to start at 6:00 and be done with everything by 8:00-8:30. Remember - it only takes a few minutes to eat! Suggestions? someone mentioned doing birthdays on this night for anyone who has had one - and that would be fun too. Let us know what you think - this is for all of us- so input freely! You can bring p.j.'s for the kids and get them ready for bed here if your would like.
Talk soon? Maybe see you Sunday...Love all, Mom

My little Caroline is one brave cookie!  She has extracted two of her own teeth, including her front tooth seen in this photo.  I can't even be in the same room with her when she wiggles them because I'm so squeamish.  She pulls and yanks on them till they bleed and finally come out, leaving a huge gaping hole!  Yuck!  --Em

Good Movie

Anton and I rented a good movie that I think some of you might like (Dad). It is called "The Endurance". It is about Ernest Shackletons expedition to Antarctica in 1914. It is a documentary, so it isn't Hollywood, but it is just the most interesting story about the instinct to survive. We both recommend it. Has anyone else seen any good movies lately?

We have a Marrriot time share that has to be used by Sept 08. If you're interested, see Diana about the options. By the way, I think one of you might have the Interval International book with the resorts that are available. Let's get that back to Diana. Love Dad

Congratulations to the new parents!!  My thoughts are with you right now as you adjust to being home with a new bundle of joy!  Ahhh.... the sleepless nights, the 55 diaper changes a day, the sore bottom, the jello-belly, the hormone fluctuations, the night sweats...  it almost makes me wish that I could do it again!  

My little family had a fantastic weekend, thanks to Mum & Dad!  How lucky are we that we have access to beautiful homes in Midway AND St. George?!  This idea of not having to clean the place as we leave is a great thing--because after the hour that it took just to pack up our stuff and load it in the car, Harry was screaming and the girls were ready to roll.  Thanks, Mom and Dad, for granting me the peace of mind that I didn't need to spend an additional hour or two to clean while my kids howled for dinner.

Happy New Year!!!  (Em)
