Like, read this.

Guys - I just wanted to nag at you all for a minute. Me and Chris are, like, the only ones who, like, posted something in the past, like, few weeks. And that is, like, boring. I mean, Chris's posts aren't boring, but, like, this is a FAMILY blog, not, like, a Chris and Camille blog. So, like, get on the ball y'all.

Oh, and have, like, a totally ripping new year!

Like, I love you guys.

Christmas Cookie Party on 12/22

We had a fun time decorating Christmas cookies together. (This was pre-Christmas, but I've had some blogger vs. my computer technical difficulties for the past week - but it's all good now.) I wanted to add some photos of our works of art.
This is Cindy's "retro" tree and Nate's reindeer.



Sid the Sloth was home for Christmas...
Russ invited Spongebob's cousin to help build a snowman...




Some visitors from another dimension....

That arrive in Nate's space shuttle.





Cindy and LeAnn and I had a special cookie decorating contest... with our eyes closed. LeAnn thought she'd add some candy sprinkles, but since her eyes were closed, she didn't notice that the container didn't have a sprinkle-cover over the top of the jar when she dumped the sprinkles on her cookie... She's such an over achiever.

More photos and video will be posted later! LOVE TO YOU ALL! Camille

Our Annual Gingerbread House Building

We had our annual gingerbread building festivities for FHE Monday night. We started doing this when Dale was in chef school. We've simplified a lot and the houses aren't quite as fancy as the ones the future chefs built with stained glass windows etc., but we still have a lot of fun. We always invite someone over to share the fun with. This year it turned into a boys vs. girls house building contest.

The boys got theirs together first, but as you can see, it collapsed and had to be rebuilt. They both ended up looking very similar with lots of candy.



















This is the girls' house.








This is the boys' house.

Be on the lookout for "Runaway Elves"!

Price Grandkids,

Have you seen these elves? Be aware, they are armed and dangerous....doing good deeds all over Deutschland.

The Crazy Elf Dancer

Keep the streets free of these menaces!

Uncle Dale

Kitty's first haircut

She looks like a real schnauzer now - isn't she cute... if a little demonic?



BEFORE...
and AFTER...







Happy week before Christmas!

We're getting older.

I was thinking today how old we're alll getting............some of us older than others.
Chris, do you realize you're probably going to be a grandmother within the next 5 years. That means the rest of us will be great aunts and uncles......not that we aren't great already.
I was just sitting here pondering about life and thought I'd share that with everybody.
Have a great day.
P.S. Where are those shots of the kids in action that I asked for?

Here's Our Tree with a little Christmas Music Too




Here's our tree. One with the flash so you can see the ornaments, and one without the flash so you can see the lights. My friend gave me the lighted gift this year. She took a glass brick, drilled a hole in the side and stuffed a string of lights in it, then tied a bow on it. The pictures don't show how neat it really looks.

And for a little music, here's some video of Clark's high school jazz band. Clark is on the front, far right (Bari Sax). Some of the video is a little crazy, but the sound is good.

Let's see 'em guys!



I want to see your Christmas trees! I want to see your nativity sets! Brian's tree looks great, as do his decorations - very nice! So take some pictures and post 'em! I will post mine here. The one on the left is with the lights out, and the picture on the right is with the overhead lights on. Love all y'all! Camille

The quest for Dad's Christmas present

Dad, Don't read this until after you get your box.

I couldn't decide what to send to Dad for Christmas. Our chocolate would be nasty compared to chocolate from Germany. I finally decided to get him some Red Hots. A seemingly simple purchase. No, not even close. I guess there is a tea recipe that uses Red Hots that a lot of people make at Christmas time to give to friends. I went to 3 stores and gave up. I called Zach, he was with Stacy not doing too much, and asked him if he was interested in a quest. He said he was up for the quest. He asked if I had been to the mall. Why would I go there for Red Hots? About an hour later I got a text message saying that he had succeeded and it only cost $13. Yep, he found them at the mall. Nothing's too good for my Dad.

Funny for Zack

These are from a book called "Disorder in the Court." These are things
people actually said in court, word for word, taken down and now published
by court reporters - who had the torment of staying calm while these
exchanges were actually taking place.

Another trip to Wal-Mart redeemed!

This story isn't funny, sorry Zach, but it's great.

Yesterday I was lamenting having to go to the shopper infested dwelling of Wal-Mart again. It's kind of a love/hate relationtionship. You love the prices but don't know if you can stomach another visit. But I was glad for the opportunity when I left yesterday. Here's the story: I was just leaving the one hour photo desk when I looked up and came face to face with Elder and Sister Eyring. He said "Hello," as I stared on wondering if that were really them. I tried to be inconspicuous as I glanced their way to make sure it was them and then mustered the courage to say hello in return. They were looking at digital camers with a clerk. I tapped Sister Eyring on the arm and asked if they were in fact the Eyrings. She said yes and I told her I just wanted to say hello as one of the 12 million people who knew them. She asked where I was from. When she learned that I was originally from Idaho we talked about Rexburg where they had served at Ricks College. I asked if they knew any Risenmays and they knew Uncle Jay well. Sister Erying then introduced me to Elder Eyring as Jay Risenmay's niece. He said that Uncle Jay was one of his favorite people. I said that he was one of mine too. They said thanks for stopping to say hello and I went on my way. It overwhelmed me and I just wandered for a few minutes fighting the tears that came automatically. They still come every time I think about it. They were very warm and inviting just like the Savior would have been. Still they were fast moving and back to business out of necessity. Can you imagine being an Apostle and walking into a store in American Fork, Utah.

I am so glad you are all my family.

Love, Cathy

You asked for more pictures (maybe we just wanted to hear that)


Hey everyone,

Kaitlyn just got a new Christmas dress and Cindy said that Dale told her to post more pictures so here we go.
Love you all, Nate

Video of Kaitlyn walking

Happy Sunday everyone. I haven't written in quite a while. Thanks Russ for helping us with the whole video thing I hope this one works. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7768874454570005346
I can't believe all the stories of the weather. I'm freezing in Vegas, I can only imagine how you all do it. :) Guess I'll find out soon enough. Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone if I don't write again before then.

Yahoo


I just had to post a picture, cause its fun. Its is a shot at the visitor we have had at work a weasel.

Well Cindy Lou, we would say that were sorry that you have to leave Nevada...
IF WE WERE :-) but we are really not sorry to see you get closer to Idaho!

I just thought to let you all know that the best/easist way we have found to post videos is at

http://video.google.com/videouploadform?utm_campaign=gv-ww-hdr&utm_source=EM&utm_medium=link

then just provide the link in our blog. We tried a service that lets you put the video right in the blog but it had some problems, like sound but no picture or only the first frame....

We are new Parents!!!! No, were not having another baby, that would take a miracle indeed!!But, we do have a new puppy and I was wondering if yall (Brian and Kathy, Dale and Chris all you veteran dog owners) have hints for how to puppy-proof your Christmas tree and presents, or do we have to wait till Chrismas eve to put them out. Kitty (thats our dog HEE,Hee) has already chewed up a package that arrived by mail.

Our lives are so busy right now, with Meg in basketball and piano, Henry in Basketball, scouts, mutual, Sam in scouts, and Janie in Dance, Camille has truly turned into the proverbial taxi. Kudos to you MOMs and all you do! I have to try and remember that it is a blessing to be able to be involved in so many things.
G'DAY and Godbless!

We're Moving North




Hello Dear Family!
Nate and I are moving after Christmas to northern Utah, maybe Layton, to go to school at Weber. He wants to get an MBA and school starts January 8th. He's never lived in snow before so this should be interesting. I may even have a hard time adjusting after living down in the heat for 3 years. Kaitlyn has turned into quite the explorer now that she walks everywhere. It's a full time job picking up after her.
Can anyone please explain to me how to post video clips on here. We have a couple of really fun ones of Kaitlyn walking and laughing that I'd love to share.
Hope your holidays are merry and bright!!
Love, Cindy

More snow than we've seen in 6 years

We were out of school for two days. We got ice on Wednesday night so they canceled school and then it snowed all day Thursday. We ended up with about 7 inches. It was 4.5 offically at the airport, but more in the north part of town where we are. It sure made it feel a lot more like Christmas time. We put up our tree on Thursday and hung the lights outside on Saturday.





Clark went to his first formal dance at school. He took Jessica. You can email him for details: saxdude12@hotmail.com

You know you're in Oklahoma when they have a TV and chairs set up at a formal dance for the Big 12 Championship game and what a game it was. Go Sooners!!

Hope your Turkey was Tasty!

My dearest loved ones... I hope you had a great Thanksgiving! We (the Hatches, Boyd's family, Brent and Rex, my family, and Don Borrowman) had a really nice day. After a very satisfying feast, including 12 pies, most of the women folk enjoyed watching all the men folk do the dishes. I say most of us because it was a difficult task for dear Cathy. She sat stiff in her chair for several minutes. When I asked her how she was, she said, "Nervous." Everyone got along really well, the kids didn't fight... much ... and the adults enjoyed the variety of conversations that always abound: religion, politics, bodily functions, sports, school, home projects, kids, more religion, more politics.... The kids were WAY into DDR (Dance Dance Revolution) and we could hear them thumping and jumping upstairs. Jenny and Janie found an old tube of Mom's lipstick and with their lucious lips and fancy dress up clothes, they entertained themselves for hours. It was just a nice day. It's been a very relaxing and enjoyable holiday. We've watched movies and eaten food and played games and eaten more food and talked and eaten food and slept. Then we wake up and eat more food. I have to tell a story about Boyd, who had a bit of a sour stomach after so much food. He had gas. At one time, Russ and LeAnn and I were in the doorway to the dining room when we heard a rumble in the other room. LeAnn went to investigate and, sure enough, it was Boyd.in the office. We heard his toot halfway across the house! Later that night, when we were playing games, Boyd bent over to his left to pick up a game piece and some of that loud gas escaped. Consequently, LeAnn was sitting on his right side and got the full blast. After declarations of disgust and lots of laughter, Boyd still had to retrieve the game piece. Being conscious of LeAnn he leaned to his right to try to get it. Lorn Sleem (a friend from England who is attending BYU), who was sitting to Boyd's left jumped out of his seat and said, "Don't aim that at me!" Welcome to America! We laughed until we cried.

Alright. I'm done. Love to you all! Camille

SPORTS CLIPS WANTED

We're deep into the sporting season. All of you who have video cameras need to put video clips of your kids in their sporting events. For that matter you need to put video clips of all types of your family activities on hear. I think everybody has cable or DSL internet now so there's no excuse for not being able to do this due to a slow internet connection.

Thursday, November 23, 2006

We couldn't wait either.....

Chris called Dad and Mom tonight and wished them a Happy Thanksgiving. You guys need to look into SKYPE...It is a FREE "Voice over IP" software package that allows you to make phone calls from your computer. We spoke with them for nearly 45 minutes, and it cost us $0.91. WOW! If you install Skype on your computer, we can call for free. The quality of the phone call was great. Call Chris for the details of the call. 405-823-2314.

WE JUST COULDN'T WAIT!!!!!

Well,
We were going to wait until tomorrow night to put up our tree but we just couldn't wait. We put it up this past Sunday. We've got lots of lights to put up. We're doing colored lights this year so our house won't have that elegant look that white lights give. Instead it will be full of color and life like our household of animals. (when you visit you'll find out)
We'll get lots of pictures as we get them so everyone can see how many lights we really have. Let's put it this way, I'm installing a four socket outlet on the outside of our house to accommodate the lights we'll be putting up. It's going to be an adventure.

Love always.

Medicine for Sam

Yesterday as we had just finished eating and were sitting down to FHE Sam started a cough attack, we have had it running the rounds, so I got a great idea to let him try one of these new fancy cough strips. They are like cough medicine concentrated into a thin strip that you dissolve in your mouth. Well, it was cherry flavored and at first he said he really liked it and then he didn't like it , and then it started to burn. Well as he dashed to the sink to spit it out the poor guy vomitted BIG TIME. THANKS DAD, that was great medicine! Guess I should have tried it out first.

I'll leave you with a joke, re-told to me by Bishop Kris Kelly...Do you know how to catch a polar bear? You cut a large hole in the ice, then you put peas all the way around the hole. Then when the bear comes to take a pea, you kick him in the ice hole.

A request for day to day happenings...

Chris asked for day to day happenings. So, I'll post this little quip.

I am singing a solo in our stake Christmas concert in a few weeks. It is quite high and I am quite nervous. I was practicing when Kitty suddenly piped up and began to "howl" with me. Should I take that as a compliment?

Camille

Sunday, November 19, 2006

I finally made it!

I'm, so glad that you are all so computer savvy. I have loved reading your letters and seeing your pictures. Now I am finally on board even though Camille helped me figure this out two weeks ago.

Last night in the car on the way home from the store Jack was eating some candy that he had bought in a candy machine. Jenny asked him for some but Jack said no because he was saving some for Justin who was home sick. Jenny started moaning "owie, owie, owie" but still got no response from Jack. Finally she said, "Jack, I'm hurt. You're supposed to give treats to people when they are hurt." Jack's response was "N-O."
Then Jenny asked me how you spell yes then turned to Jack and said, "Jack Y-E-S. (Still no response.) Jack I spelled yes!" She never did get any of his candy.

When Justin and I were waiting for the doctor yesterday I stood up to blow my nose and Justin, always looking for something nice to say, said, "Mom, you're really good at blowing you nose." I've never had such a compliment.

Cindy I am so glad that you have been in our family these 29 years. We all love you!

We can't wait to see you Idahoans at Thanksgiving!

Love, Cathy

Happy Birthday Cindy!!!

Getting into Character a little too much...

Owen took his character of "Chip" a little too seriously (notice his two front teeth). Now he's singing: "All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth" We go in Monday morning to see the dentist. When I called his pager on Friday, he was at a conference learning about chipped teeth. He also asked what is up with my boys and their teeth? I had to page him on a Friday a month or so ago because Clark had knocked his teeth on his knee while playing football. In case you couldn't tell, our dentist's office is closed on Fridays. Good thing we have a nice dentist that works with us.

Funny Story to Share

OK - viewer discretion is advised, although the things you will read next are all true.

Janie, I am sad to say, is not the best reader, but we are working on it. The other day we were doing just that, working on her reading, which was PAINFULLY slow as beginning reading always is. Janie was sounding out words and I was trying to focus on being patient. While sounding things out, she accidentally put two words together and said out loud,"S - H - I - *. Sh**." I laughed out loud, tried to calm myself, and then corrected her, adding that that word is not a nice word, it is a swear word, although I know she wasn't swearing, but she should avoid saying that word in the future. Well, Janie burst into tears, wailing that she just swore. I couldn't control myself and burst into fits of laughter again. She was so angry that I was laughing that she stormed from the room and climbed into bed where she cried herself to sleep, but only after Meg consolingly told her, "I know, Janie. Mom laughs at me, too sometimes." The reproof still didn't stop me from laughing. I'm still laughing.

ALERT! ALERT!

I simply wanted to draw your attention to the new link to the Price Family birthday list, which also has a list of family addresses. It is located below the link to the Missionary Letters. I know, you love me. This blog stuff is pretty nifty.
OH! I don't have our adopted sister Jeri's birthday or address. Can anyone help me out? Thanks! If I have any info. incorrect, just lemme know. Thanks!

It's okay to post without pictures

I just wanted to post something without pictures so that those of you that are waiting to post when you get some pictures will realize that it's okay to post just text. I'm sure that there are things happening in your lives that you can tell the rest of us about. Since I have had no luck getting you on the phone, I would love to keep in touch through this. I know you're all busy, but for those of us that live farther than a days drive, this is a great place to stay connected.

I can't believe that it is almost Thanksgiving. We're having the missionaries and a sister in our ward who is here just for a few months at the FAA Academy. It's great to have a ward family to fill the void of being so far away from our families.

Clark got a job this week at Chick Filet. The good thing about it is that they are closed on Sundays. The owner is a good Christian man that believes in keeping the Sabbath day holy. It's great to know there are a few of those left.

Owen has his 5th grade musical this week. He's Chip in the "Cyber Kids" musical. It is amazing what our music teacher gets out of a bunch of 10 and 11 year olds. Everyone in 5th grade is involved. Zach is finally getting the chance to play "Stars and Stripes Forever" written for eight hands. His piano teacher found 3 other people interested in playing this piece with Zach. He's excited and we're looking forward to hearing it.

Jordan is enjoying life and doing great in school. He has a lot of friends and many of the pink variety. He was invited to a birthday party, but it was on Sunday so he didn't go. The girls brought him a goodie bag after the party with a mug with his name on it and some candy.

Camille, could you add the blogarithm on the Munich Letters page so we know when you've posted something new? I kept checking my email thinking we should have some news from Mom and Dad and finally saw that it was on the Blog.

It's great to hear Mom sounding like a missionary. Dale laughed when she talked about justifying their trip with the dinner appointment and showing of the DVD. How neat it is that she's playing the piano. Piano players are so needed in the church everywhere. Keep practicing all of you piano students. You are going to be of great service as you get older.

Love all ya'll (that's plural for ya'll).
Hope to read more about what's happening in your lives soon.
Chris

Good Morning, Idaho!

Chris talked about planting flowers in October, about it being 85 degrees. Look what we awoke to this morning (about 7:15am)! It was a beautiful storm last night, the snow fell in thick flakes - it even fell straight down instead of horizontally! We had about 2" last night, but it will be gone by this afternoon. I love Idaho.


I love all of you!

TP'd Young Women's Style




Just wanted to show you what we came home to Wednesday night. Notice the flowers in the picture. I planted them in October. They are a little wilted because it has been a little hot the past couple of days, 85 and 83. They last all winter and get really beautiful in the spring. I love Oklahoma!

Sunday night Zach, Clark, Jessica (Clark's friend) and I went and saw Gladys Knight. It was really amazing. The message was great! Especially for all the southern Baptists that are here. Both she and her husband were Baptists and both told their conversion story. There were a lot of referral cards filled out that night. The missionaries will love that. You had to take a nonmember to get tickets. Good thing Clark came through for us. The only concern we had is if these people come to a regular Sunday church meeting. They'll be a little sad that there isn't as much singing and Hallelujahs as there were this night. Different cultures are so great!

Fall is in the air.





We've had a couple of weeks of cold weather now and the leaves are rapidly falling from the trees.

It's now the season for sitting by the fire and sipping hot chocolate to beat the chill in the air. It's the time to prepare for the holidays, gather with family and friends, to remember what we're thankful for and taking the time to remember the real reason we celebrate this time of year.

With Mom and Dad being so far from home this site is giving them a taste of home so let's all remember to keep posting to this as often as we can and if we have to, make time to do so. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.


Love Kathy and Brian

Father Christmas

Hello everyone! Halloween is over and the holidays will soon be upon us. This is just a reminder that The Hatch Clan will be acting as Father Christmas this year. Please send your GENEROUS contributions to Cathy and Jason ASAP. I think, to be fair to them and their very busy schedule, we should try to get our donations sent to them by November 30th.

Their mailing address is:
1035 N 260th E
Lehi, UT 84043

Thanks everyone!

As a side note, I feel compelled to remind everyone to fast and pray for Brent. I feel that he is wrestling with some pretty big demons lately - discouragement, doubt, a little bit of anger, and even despair. If you want to drop him a line, his email address (he has a new one) is brc4evr@yahoo.com. He is such a good man, such a good, good brother - not perfect, but who among us is perfect? I love him so much.

Shoot, I love all ya'll!

Henry is a wrestler. Can you believe it?

Yes, Henry is wrestling. It was a suprise to us all that he first, tried it and second, that he loved it! So after 5 practices, he had his first tournament and won his first match by a technical fall (?), 15 points.

If you want to see the video, you can click this link. It's about 3 minutes long.

A special Halloween Song for You

Russ and Kitty wanted to share their special Halloween duet with you. It's called, "The Wolf - Man Woes." It's a sad song, really, but it has a haunting melody that seems to stay with you. In it's own quirky way, it even adds a bit of Halloween cheer. We hope you enjoy it.

Munich Missionary Letters

Hello, all ya'll. I did a thing. No offense to Mom & Dad, but their letters take up SO MUCH ROOM! So, I made their own blog - Munich Missionary Letters. There is a link to it on the left side of The Fridge (also a link to the posting page, which should make posting somewhat simpler for newbies). Anyway, I will post all of Mom and Dad's letters there when I get them.

I hope this works. If it doesn't - if it is too confusing or just freaky, we'll go back to posting their letters on The Fridge.

LOVE YA! Thanks, everyone for posting. It makes me happy to see this good communication, AND (with a sob) I think it would make the folks glad, too, to see us working to stay close (quivering sigh).

DANGER!!!!!!!!!!! NOISE HAZARD AREA!!!!!!!!!!

As some of you may already know I sent a trumpet I had to Zach. The last time I talked to Chris Owen could be heard in the background blowing away. So, the next time you take a trip to see the Okies make sure you bring your hearing protection.

Ramblings

Well, fellow fridge-gazers, gazers for short (not to be confused with geezers), how the heck are ya?! I'm having a peachy day at work today. But here during my lunch I just felt the need to BLOG a bit. Camille and I saw the new movie The Prestige last friday. There's a good flick for ya. Great twisting plot, kind of an Alfred Hitchcock type. You can never really predict whats going to happen, and then in the end... its one of those "things that make ya go HMMM!"
So how about books? I need a new novel. Of course that converstation could last forever with "how about the Harry Potter series? Nope read that one......" So maybe we'll have to post a list of favorite books or something.

Deep thought for the day. Numbers are amazing. One of my favorite little "jokes" says;

There are only 10 types of people in this world. Those who understand binary, and those who dont.

The joke here, is that one-zero, or what most of us recognize as ten, is binary for two, and only those who understand binary will get the joke. But, what about A? A is actually the Hexideciamal representation for...ten. So if someone holds up ten fingers and asks how many fingers am I holding up you could say A, or 1010 which is binary for ten OR 12 which is Octal for ten. Yea, Yea Ok, I'll shut-up.... I did warn you that it was the deep thought for the day.
G'day and Godbless ~Russ

BYU vs UNLV

So I know that I've gone to UNLV for 6 years now and although I've never really learned to cheer for a team that never wins games it doesn't make the consequences any easier. Especially when that stinkin team loses 52-7.

Love,

Nate
