Rant

I have not been on a rant for a while.  I don't know if I want to post negative Scott but I guess I will because I'm bugged.  I was at Lisa and Eric's baseball game and the opposing coach comes up to me and basically goes on about how good Lisa is.  Well what about Eric?  He blasted a line drive between left field and center field.  His on base percentage was 1000.  He had a great game.  I know he meant well and he is a nice guy, but it just bugged me. Lisa gets a lot of attention because she is so good.  Same thing with school.  Eric gets attention because he is so smart.  Well, guess what.  All my kids are smart.  Lisa's reading and comprehension tested out at a high-school level.  I don't like one kid receiving praise and not the others.

1 week after Presidents day.  This was a fun trip.  All our trips are fun.  I guess I should be more descriptive.  Our kids are tough and did all the hikes.  I did not know when the day would come but it is now almost official-  my kids can now out do me.  (they don't know it yet but I was having a hard time keeping up with them) at times at Angels Landing.  I'm going to have to go to riding bikes because I can still out perform them.  Last year in the back yard Eric started giving his old man a hard time when I was teaching them some bating tips, and Lisa started to pile on, so I got up and hit two shots at least 350 feet.  They were impressed.  That shut them up for a year and they listened to me.  It won't be long before they can beat me in all their little contests.

This hike was funny because the other hikers thought David was cute and funny.  We was talking non stop all the way up this hike about Minecraft.  Me, I had no idea what he was talking about.
