Roger's Basketball Game - January 31, 2009

Saturday - January 31, 2009

These pictures were taken on this day in 2009.  Roger had a basketball game over at the church.  His work schedule always makes it hard for him to be able to participate in church sports.  which is frustrating, because he always wants to play.  They finally played a game on a night when roger could be there!  The first pictures are of the kids getting ready to go watch their Daddy play basketball.

Here are the kids at the church.  They didn't watch the game for very long.  They had way to much fun running around and playing in the area behind the chairs that I had set up for us.

Here's Roger bringing the ball down the court.  He looks like he's taking his time.

I am having a hard time getting myself to blog lately. Taking pictures is just not very fun, since our camera broke. I've been using an old one that my parents had and it is very dissappointing. It does not take as good of pictures as our old camera. Our video camera is really a let down too. We bought it a few years ago and it has always been bad. So let me just warn you, JVC made a very crappy digital video camera, and they are not very helpful. We've had to send in two times, since we bought it, for repairs. It took a lot of calling until we finally were told where to send the camera to be fixed. After we sent it, they said it was fixed and they sent it back. I tried it as soon as we got it back. They had fixed the problem we sent it in for, but it would no longer record sound. so we had to send it in again! very frustrating! The first time it broke was 4 months after we bought it. This camera has been a hugh dissappointment, right from the start.

I'm just feeling really blah! lately......that's the reason for such a negative post. We have just been busy with life. I'm busy with taking care of the kids, the house, and working my part time job. There is just not enough time in the day. Roger is always busy with school and working. We will find out in 2 weeks if all of that is going to be changing. Roger might be getting layed of from his job at Autoliv. He builds the initiator for airbags (the part that explodes and makes the bag fill up with air). His job title is Explosives Handler and Mix tech. The automotive industry is not doing so well and that means there is not a demand for airbags. They had a work meeting on Thursday and they told everybody that they needed to do something. They asked for people to volunteer to be layed off or take a leave of absence. they said in two or three weeks, after people have had a chance to volunteer, they will start laying people off. I think they are needing to get rid of 30% of the employees. So, we just don't know what will happen. I really don't like not knowing what will happen. It makes me crazy!

On a lighter note. There is a website that you can find out who your related to (noteable people in the church, royalty, people in American history, royalty, etc.). It is a lot of fun. I come from a long line of royalty. Here is a link to the website http://roots.cs.byu.edu/. I am related to Thomas Edison. He is my 6th cousin 4 times removed. A lot of the people that I am related to are _cousins _times removed. But the royalty is different. I am a direct descendent of a lot of royalty. They are listed as my 26th, 27th,etc. great grandparents. Another fun one is my 11th great grandfather is William Brewster who was a traveller on the Mayflower. To find your ancesters you have to have an AFN # for the relative that you use to start the search. The website tells you how to find the AFN #'s. But for anyone in my Family who wants to do a search on the Bone side. Vera Coulam's # is 35MR-QC and Jay Martin Bone is 35MR-P6.

I've been doing a lot of scrapbooking lately, so I thought I would just post some of the pages I have done. I have a lot of scrapbooking to do to get caught up. That's why I have pages where the kids are a lot younger.
