After 12 days of searching the hampsters are finally together again. I can FINALLY sleep through the night knowing that the little rodent isn't climbing on me! The hampster hunter(greg) found the hampster in the extra carpet under our stairs in the basement. Does anyone know what the average life span of these things are?

JAKE!!!!!!!
I think I'm a pretty good housekeeper, vacumming should be done at least once everyday, toilets, mirrors, tubs and showers should be wiped everyday, rooms cleaned, laundry washed and folded, dishes done, etc... I think everything should have it's place. Well today dish network came to fix jakes t.v. because it hasn't been working for a few days and as you know in this house none of us can live without our t.v. Well to fix the problem we had to move Jake's dresser out to get behind it and this is what we found! I was SO embarresed, dorito and candy bar wrappers, bread, floss and a ton of other GARBAGE! The dish network guy was so nice he could tell I was embarresed and said " Don't worry I've seen worse". I guess Jake has not learned that everything has a place and it's called a GARBAGE CAN!

I love Biggest Loser!
I love this show! If you have not watched this show before you are missing out. These guys are amazing, and they give me So much motivation. I just want Bob to come and train me so I can get this last 15 pounds off. Anyways the finalle was the other night and the winner was.....
Ali!!! She went from 234 pds to......

122 pds AMAZING!!!! She lost 112 pounds in 6 months. This is her with her mom who also lost a ton of weight going from 261 to 188 losing 75 pds. Ali is the first female biggest loser, GO ALI!
Anyways if Ali can lose 112 pds in 6months, It shouldn't be so hard for me to loose 15 pds in six months . So I am putting this out here right now that I will be 15 pds lighter by the end of October, and I also think Greg was inspired to loose a few pds. If you see us eating something we shouldn't PLEASE remind us of our goal! And if you missed the big finalle, you know I have it recorded on my DVR along with anything else you may have missed!Posted by emeryfam at 9:24 PM 5 comments

The Hampsters are gone.....AGAIN!!!!
Last year the kids were begging us for a pet. Two years ago we gave away our dog Abby because dogs are not allowed in new houses!(I'm the meanest mom) Last year the Easter Bunny finally gave in and brought two hampsters. The hampsters had to live in the basement because hampsters are not allowed upstairs in new houses( I know, but they smell). Anyways we went down everyday and made sure they had food and water, the kids were obsessed with the hampsters for about a week and then they were forgotten. Then last year a week after easter we went to St. George for a few days, came home and I heard Greg yell "the hampsters are gone". I absolutly flipped out, thinking that they were upstairs. After hours of searching we found both of them. Last week Greg went down to look at the basement because we are having it finished and I heard Greg yell "the hampsters are gone again". Once again I flipped out thinking they were upstairs, yelled at the kids for not putting the top of the cage on right, and started the hampster hunt. Greg stayed up untill 1am looking for those damn things and no luck! The next day we left for St. George, we put food on the ground in front of the cage and hoped that they would stay downstairs and that we would find them when we got home. Well we came home and found the food eaten and no sign of the damn things! Well it's Tue night and Greg found one last night, after a 10 minute chase. Now we feel we are on a recovery mission for the 2nd one, because it has been 7days with no water, and we are getting ready to sheet rock the basement and that can't be good for a hiding hampster. Greg is down searching now, I will let you know how it ends....Anyone want a hampster!

Dance weekend in St. George
If we are not in St.George for baseball we are there for dance! Presley had a dance competition at Dixie College so we packed back in the car for another weekend in St. George. We had great weather, ate lots of good food, swam and watched a ton of dance!
