Halloween Pics

Woody, Bullseye, baby Jesse & Jesse

This post is for Becky (who was the stem of a Pumpkin) because I told her I would have these pictures posted TONIGHT!! And Since we weren't cool enough to be invited to anyone's parties these are from our TrunkerTreat at church. And if you are retarded like some people and don't know what or who we are, we are "Woody's Roundup" from Toy Story 2! Woody, Bullseye, Jesse and baby Jesse. Kestin is a witch and Raelyn is the "Miss Rodeo Queen of Everything 2008"... it was amazing. Anyway, not much of a post but oh well. It's good enough for who posted it.

Who is Ashlyn's dad???

Answer? Ashlyn is definitely Kevin's kid. Just look at that
hairline! Poor kid. She does have a hairline up farther too thank goodness. If it doesn't grow in though, she will be cussing her dad. She also has the "Rigby eye of the hurricane" in back too. I am also blessfully cursed with that. It makes short hair 'so fun'. Anyway, I haven't posted pictures of Ashlyn for a while and I keep getting threatening emails so here are just a few random ones. The last one is the princess who decided she needed her ba-ba while getting pampered in the tub. ENJOY!

photo tag

I 'tagged' myself after stalking a few of my fellow blogger's blogs... and this is a fun one! Here's how you play: You post the fourth photo from your fourth album on your computer! It's fun to see what it is and share it.

I actually decided to post the 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th picture to get the full effect. This is my brother Randy. Yes, I know what you are all asking and the answer is yes he is retarded. No, he is actually just willing to do anything and put anything on. He is a true comedian. These were some of my Grandpa Dickie's costumes and being the retard that Randy is, he put them right on. I wish I had the pictures of him in my clubbing pants... they were amazing.
I am actually glad that it was Randy who was in the 4th album and the 4th picture. He is going through a really hard time right now and there is nothing that I can do about it. Out of all us Creagers, he has been through the most. And since he is a Creager, we tend to shut people out when we are hurting and keep to ourselves. Our most famous line is "I AM FINE" when really we know that we're not. It is our cover, not a good one I know. Anyway, Randy moved to Elko a few months ago to better his life for him and his wife. Well SHE didn't enjoy it and so she moved home. We "thought" temporarliy, but we "knew" permanantly. Then out of the blue she calls and says that she is filing for the BIG D... oh great here we go again. Brief history on Randy: he was married in 2001 for 3 or 4 short months until his wife at the time said that she didn't want to be married anymore. Then he was in a relationship with another girl for 5 + years and then they split and now he has been just married over a year and she is calling it quits! WTH ladies?? My brother is amazing!! Okay back to the story. So Randy is out in Elko loving his job at the Gold Mine and is GOING TO SCHOOL!!! Um, we Creager's are college drop outs. So YAY for Randy!! Anyway, well my dad text him yesterday (because we are texter's and not caller's) and he gets this text back saying "I am moving out of the country". Yeah, ok Rand, sure you are. Well I text him last night and he comfirmed it, he plans on moving to Germany!! WTH?? Iwas thinking out of the country like California or back to Wisconsin like he wanted to before. But seriously, GERMANY? Anyway, I love my brother and I will support him in whatever he does. I WILL NOT be happy about it, but I will support him and pray for him daily. He is hurting, heart broken and thinks that this move is for the best so that he can start over fresh... far away. I blame Holly for all of this. She is young, immature and totally selfish (which is the reason she told us she is filing for divorce). I won't say that I hate her for hurting my brother, even though I would like to. I know everything has 2 sides, but I side with my family. Randy, I know you will never read this or for that matter even know that I posted this (unless Mike and Steph say something about the pics) but I do love you. I know we have not always got along. But since we have both decided to grow up (and get tattoo's) I have loved being close to you. I know that I can turn to you no matter what and you won't judge me. You will give me your honest opinion and I am greatful for that, even when your honesty hurts like a mother trucker. I wish you the best and hope that you can find the happiness that you DESERVE! Hate your face you cry baby poo butt @$$! Oh and the first 10 Germans you meet are on your team.

softball party

Amber, Janelle, Jennifer, Tianna, Cathy and Robyn


So16 + years ago, the "New Kids On The Base" was formed. We were just a bunch of little girls that didn't know what we were doing with a bat, ball and a glove on our hand, but dang it we wanted to play some softball!! We all tried different positions to see what we liked. We had fun and all of us girls were good friends.
The next year, we changed our name "Base Buddies" and we were a little better. We lost a few players and added some new ones. We were all still great friends.
Then the next summer, we needed a grown up name. NKOTB and Base Buddies was too kid-like and we wanted to be taken seriously. We were a good team. We had all got to know our parts on the field and were darn good at them. (Me personally, I was the catcher... and I LOVED IT! I was fearless when it came to crouching under the batter and talkin some trash to make them nervous. I also played second base, but catcher was my favorite.) So we form the "MITT MEISTERS". Again, we lost a few players added some new and we kicked everyone's trash. We played against some good teams and some bad teams, and sad to say, when we played the worst team in the league, we were so over confident that we lost. How do I remember this? Because one of my good friends now was on that team and when we were talking about softball, before we told each other what positions we played she said that they hated the catcher on our team.... wa ha ha it was me!! But she doesn't let me live it down that we lost to them. Anyway, I believe that we took second in county every year. We rocked. Our coaches rocked and our families all supported us at every game. We were all still good friends.
Then along comes junior high and high school. People go their separate ways, go to college, have good jobs, get married, move away, have babies, see the world and we all lose touch eventually. Well, I have been thinking alot about the "Meisters" for quite some time and wondered what everyone has been up to. I talked to Cathy since me and her talk quite a bit, and decided that we are just going to plan a day (we started planning last year) and tell everyone and those who can will be there. And those who won't.... catch ya next time.
So last night was the night, we only had 7 of us there and 1 arrive later after 3 others had left and it was so much fun!! We started out the night with a little catching up, then ate some fabulous taco salad, Amber's jalepeno dip with bread and some of Natalie's delicious brownies. (We also got to eat some of Missi's fab pumpkin squares with cream cheese when she arrived later.) Then we sat and talked some more... you figure most of us haven't seen each other since our last shin dig at the Steoger's right after High School. The crazy part is, we all live within 10 minutes of each other! With the exceptions of Janelle is Marriott-Slaterville and Tianna in Provo.
It was such a fun night and I wish I had more pictures but I was too involved in the conversation, i.e: my dinner. And Natalie was missing from the picture because I couldn't figure out my timer on the camera before she left... so sorry Nat. And Missi came late so just picture them in it.
Thanks girls for coming. We need to do it more often and hopefully get the other sluggers to come join us. Next summer we will have to have a "softball" game and see how rusty we all are. If you click on the link to the right, you can see one of the last years pictures that we played. Not everyone is included in that picture and I will have the NKOTB and Base Buddies pictures added as soon as we get into our new house.
NEXT: WE WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A HOOPER ELEMENTARY 6TH GRADE REUNION!! HOW FUN WOULD THAT BE?? SKATING NIGHT ANYONE??? OR HOW ABOUT OUR "CARD" DANCES???
