WAY TO GO LAKERS!

just getting started

Rhonda sent me a link to their blog, I had no idea just about everyone in the family was on here but me. It is good to read everyone elses blogs and see what they have been upto, and for others learn things about them that I had no clue about, (uncle Dave E's blog, with his life history.)  I do not have much going on out here in Arkansas, other than work so i will try to keep y'all up to date with me,  but it will be very boring. I know I do not keep the best of contact with everyone, probably should call mom more. Ofcourse i did call her today for mothers day. again, happy mother's day mom.

Two weeks ago I recieved a call from mom. When I first saw the number on the phone my first thought was who passed away. When I answered the phone I was glad to hear that was not what she was calling about. Mom does not call much, I guess with seven kids it is best sometimes to wait for them to call. The last few times she did call it was for my birthday and the days grandma and grandpa Astle passed away. They were on one of Robs tours. Mom had no clue she was only a short 2 hours away from me. They were in Branson Missouri, and uncle Dave E. asked mom how far I was, so she called to find out. I drove up there the next day and spent the rest of the day and night with them. It was nice seeing them, at the same time I figured this would get me out of coming back to utah this year. Not that I do not want to come. I know my visits are short when I do, but it is hard to leave the business. Well, after talking to mom, and Coleen trying to convince me, it looks as if I will be coming home this summer when Tammy comes out. I do have one guy working for me now, he usually just takes my calls at night and every other weekend. He can help during the days too if needed, so hopefully I can afford to come for a little longer. 
For now I am off to bed, no telling what time the phone will ring in the morning, so i better get some rest. When my phone rings it usually means it is time to get up and go make some money. It is midnight here, so I must say good night.

Thanks for calling and telling me about your blog. Since we don't seem talk that often, I can atleast keep up with what is going on in your life. Thanks for coming to Branson. It meant a lot to Dad and I. We are so excited that you are talking about coming when Tammie is here. If we can get Todd here at the same time, it will be the first time we've all been together since Grandma Hanson's funeral in 2001! Love You!
