Frustrated.

This is my break to get my mind off of my eng. project at school. It is driving me crazy. I dreamt about it for three nights in a row and spent the first part of the day, much of friday and a good part of saturday trying to download an electrical CAD program, OrCAD. Moving on.

Hansen Women Disney Characters

This post was inspired by a conversation between Talmage and Kimball, then transformed into a blog post by Rachel and Talmage. What disney character does each women in the Hansen family remind us of?

Jana-Sleeping Beauty
Jana may appear "asleep" because of her quite nature but when you open her up, or just read her blog, she is very much alive. The long blonde hair and blue eyes don't hurt either.

Erin-Cinderella

She has blond hair and is a graceful dancer as well(you should see her in her hip hop class). She is a hard working mom by day scrubbing floors and pretty princess at the ball by night going out with her prince, Taylor.

Lisa-Nala

Like Nala she can whip her significant other if she wanted to ("Pinned ya again"). Nala has lighter fur/hair like Lisa. Finally, she rescued Simba (Spencer) from his grub eating, duty dodging rebellious ways and turned him into a King (or at least he thinks he is).

Lindsay-Pocahontas/Meg

Pocahontas because of her free spirit and beautiful voice. She also is all into natural foods and remedies and I'm pretty sure Pocahontas was the same way.

Or Meg from hercules because of her chill attitude and she more resembles her physical build and mannerisms.

Brandi-Jasmine
Jasmine because she has the same big beautiful eyes, dark skin and perfect hair. Like Jasmine, Brandi also has an independent spirit about her. Finally,she married a street rat (sorry McKay).

Melanie-Ariel/Snow White

We had trouble deciding between these two. She's like the Little Mermaid because she is curious and wonders about others' world, through her love of reading. Not to mention, Lincoln looks like prince Eric.

She also reminded us of a Snow White because they have the same hair, mind you, Melanie's is a more modern verson of Snow Whites hair-do. Althoughshe doesn't have seven dwarves, she does have two critters small enough to be dwarves running around her house named Pico and Mila.

Rachelle-Belle/Giselle

I think Rachel is closest to Belle first of all because she has the brown hair in a ponytail look. She was raised in humble standards with a father who she believes in but everyone else thinks is a little crazy. Last but not least, she saw the prince in me under the beastly mask (Yes, I am a beast, McKay).

I think I am like Giselle because we both think life is a musical and I'm out of touch with reality sometimes.

Kimball's Future Wife-Princess Fiona/Mulan
Princess Fiona just looks exactly like someone Kimball would marry. Her ability to burp, eat roasted rats, and karate skills are all qualities I know he is looking for.

Or Mulan because he thinks that "oriental girls are hot". He says he already claimed Belle on the mission but Talmage would not give her up.

Bonus: Grandma Gibson (GG)-The Fairy Godmother

Can't you see it? What else can I say?

We were trying to find one for Mom Hansen but don't you notice that most Disney charaters don't have mothers. Weird. See the Disney Mother Conspiracy (http://www.gather.com/viewArticle.jsp?articleId=281474976911566)

Transformations

Talmage and I found this table in a trash can. I begged him to carry it all the way home. He looked at it like, "you want to bring that thing home? Eww. Why?" But he did it anyway, isn't he sweet and strong?
Here it is before:
I love the big transformation between the before and after. It was pretty fun.
Here is the table after:
We also found this table at a yard sale:
Here is the before and afters:

I am not as in love with transformation as the other table but no biggy.

Diaper Changing Contest

Angel: I know you want to change Heber's diaper.
Me (a little over enthusiasically): Yes! I want to change Heber's diaper soooo bad!!
(Then I change Heber's diaper quickly and throw my hands in the air victoriously.)
Angel (not an actual angel but angel my sister): You should go into a diaper changing contest
Me: Oh baby
Angel: When you come back I better see a trophy
Me: A participation trophy?

Sweet Baby Girl

Hannah was sitting up and fell asleep. Isn't she such a precious baby girl?
Note the drool on the couch.

Talmage at Boot Camp

When Talmage was in boot camp, summer 2007, I had little contact from him the first couple of weeks or so. The first contact I had was a phone call which was about 2 minutes long when he got my address. I could hear the TIs telling him to hurry and Then came this picture sent to me by the branch presidents wife there. It was good to know that he was doing great and still had a smile on his face.

He also wrote me and told me about a serious pain he was having caused by a shot in his buttocks. He was dubbed "sweet cheeks" by my brothers ever since.
