Supai is fierce!

We made a backpacking expedition to Supai back in June. Supai is in the Grand Canyon, and you might remember that Dave and I spoke at the branch there last May. We thought Supai was so unique (one of those "last great places") that we wanted to have the experience of hiking down and out instead of taking the helicopter. So we loaded up and headed out with Dave's family.


(If you click on the picture, you won't have to look at such a tiny view and you'll be able to read all of my witty commentary.)

Supai is such an amazing place! If you ever get the chance to go, take it! You won't regret it.

Colin T. Corbett is a beauty shop guy

I was talking to my friend Tana on the phone the other day, and I stopped mid-sentence and started laughing at Colin. He found one of my combs that I use to brush his hair with sometimes, and he was over at the tub wetting the comb and then brushing his hair.



Over and over again. It was so funny! I was amazed that he thought to play this game all by himself. I didn't realize how much he paid attention when I brush his hair. I always wet the brush and then get to work, just like Colin imitated. It is so neat to see how much Colin learns from watching his mommy.


Colin is an equal-opportunity brusher: He even brushes his hair with his sand rake. (It makes sense if you think about it, a rake really does look like a comb.) Again, I was amazed at my little boy's reasoning skills. I know every mother thinks her baby is so smart, but I really am proud of Colin.


A side note about the scruffy monkey seen here: I do brush Colin's hair, but it's a hopeless cause. His hair is so fine and most of it is just like bird down! (When I wash his hair, the water just runs off it until I rub it in!) And then he has this long tuft of hair (just like his daddy did when he was little) that doesn't stay in place for more than a few minutes. But the beauty shop guy is getting his first hair cut tomorrow- I think he's going to enjoy it!


P.S. Two gold stars to the first person to name that obscure reference in the title!

The Color Code

My mom went to a training recently and they did some work with the Color Code, so she wanted all of her kids to take the test and see what we were. Turns out, I am 38% blue. What are you?

Take the test!

Blues (Motive: Intimacy) Blues are motivated by Intimacy. They seek to genuinely connect with others, and need to be understood and appreciated. Everything they do is quality-based. They are loyal friends, employers, and employees. Whatever or whomever they commit to is their sole (and soul) focus. They love to serve and give of themselves freely in order to nurture others' lives.

Blues have distinct preferences and have the most controlling personality. Their personal code of ethics is remarkably strong and they expect others to live honest, committed lives as well. They enjoy sharing meaningful moments in conversation as well as paying close attention to special life events (e.g. birthdays and anniversaries). blues are dependable, thoughtful, and analytical; but can also be self-righteous, worry-prone, and moody. They are "sainted pit-bulls" who never let go of something or someone once they are committed. When you deal with a BLUE, be sincere and make a genuine effort to understand and appreciate them.

You know who you are

The responsible parties had better step forward to identify themselves and what they've done; otherwise, we know who you are and what you've done!
