Catching Up

Wow we apologize for be so incoherently busy that we could not keep our friends and family updated on our exciting life. Yes, we still only have our cellular devices for our picture taking moments so it will have to do. Here are some random pics we had on our cell phones so bare with the randomness.

So here is by far the most random event of all time. Here is the story of my pet rooster/chicken. One beautiful morning I was awakened by the noise of a cock-a-doodle-doo. Yes, and keep in mind this is in Las Vegas. I stumble down the stairs trying to talk myself out of what I was hearing. Sure enough to my wondering eyes may appear a rooster/chicken in my front yard. I am not sure what the difference is between a rooster and a chicken since this is the first time I have been close enough to see a real life one (lame I know). I tried to steer that stupid thing into the road or even into someone else's yard. This scheme worked for ummmm about 5 minutes then there that stinking thing was again in my yard. I am pretty much the most pathetic animal lover there is to man so I figured this monster was hungry since it was at our house for 5 days. I decided that dog food was a good choice. Bad choice! that monster stuck around so i stopped with the feeding hoping it would get hungry enough to go back to where it came from. Sure enough it was gone. I was kind of sad when I found that it left because it was always exciting to come home and check if it was still there. I got over that sadness within minutes. If anyone has seen my friend make sure he is in a good yard:)
Clint had some friends from Phoenix visiting so we decided to take the to the Mandalay Bay shark aquarium. We had tons of fun. There is something about aquatic life that amazes me. I could have been there all day watching their every move.
Here is Dora the fish. She is so famous I couldn't''t resist getting a picture with her.

Cell phone pic gotta love it NOT!
A SHARK yikes. This is the one of reasons I avoid the ocean. The second if Jellyfish.:O
Can you believe I was touching the same animal that killed the croc hunter! Danger is my middle. Christie Danger Fink sounds soo good doyou agree?

Here are Brian's little boys. Mason is on the left and Kenny on the right sitting on Brian's grave site in Panguitch
Here is cash in his beloved bee costume for Halloween. Doesn't he look like he loves it hahaha just kidding. I swear I am not an animal torturer.


We tried to capture the action of him trying to shake that dang thing off but it was not budging poor little cash. At least he was warm:)

Thank You

As everyone knows the funeral services were held last saturday on the 25th. The day was beautiful. I just wanted to thank those of you who came and showed your support and love for Brian as well as our family. I know that Brian would be pleased to see some of his closest friends and family show up. Some traveled over 2 thousand miles to be there.

We appreciate the love, support and prayers that you have given us during this time. We would not be able to make it through without them. Its amazing how families and friends come together when a crisis arises. It makes you realize how close we really are and the love we have for each other.

I am grateful to know that families can and will be together for all of time. Nothing can take us apart. Although Brian is not physically with us now, he will always be in our hearts, thoughts and prayers and in everything we do. Brian is now in the greatest place and we will soon see him again.

Thank you all for everything.
