loved your answers. hope you had a nice day.
and liked that you posted it to your blog (i think i might copy you).
I love that you tell you girls bedtime stories in an accent. You're such a great dad!
Loved all your answers too!
Do you really like darts?
Tiff - Yes, I like darts very much. I like all precise things.
awesome! thanks jarom! I think we all should have posted these to our blogs... lets start that. for all who so desire. Darts are pretty awesome. I have to agree. there might have been a solid gold house on it's way in the mail, but i was unsure of your address.
what happened to our darts? didn't we used to have a set?
Brit, We got a dartboard about 20 years ago that eventually fell apart and was thrown away.
Thanks for the info. We missed seeing you and the family this summer...by the way Lhasa is way over rated, don't buy all that marketing bunk. Cheers.
Jarom, I just found this tonight. It was very fun to read. Thanks.We will have to play the accent game when we see you next as you have been practicing. I hope you had a great b-day. We want to come and see you and stay with you mid July. We will bring a gift. hugs, mom
Elder Olsen or should I call you JJ?
This is your long lost companion Elder Duncan from the Las Vegas Mission. I came across your blog...happy birthday!!!! Ok so I am late in saying, if you give me you address maybe I will send you some road kill.....scratch that idea, there may be laws on the books that advise against that.
So your favorite place is Arizona? Did you know I came home to Arizona from the mission? I have lived in Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Mesa. We in Mesa right now been here since 2003....my wife (Kristy) wants to move back Scottsdale so she does not have to drive so far to work. Right now we live off of the 202 (Red Mountain Freeway) and Power Road, not sure if you know where that is?
I hope life is being kind to you? You were my favorite person from the mission. I think about the good times we had from time to time. Well I am going to end this message because I am even sure it I can post on your blog.
Peace
Joseph
