A few years ago on one of those dating reality shows throughout the season they kept hinting about the girls' deep dark secret from her past. On the bachelor those secrets are always divorce or kids. On this show, it was that the girl had dated Fabio. The guy on the show dumped her for it. Too funny.

I went to see Penny Bird today. She asked about you and the kids, so I logged her onto your blog. There was Fabio and his peck, smiling at us.
HELLO CRAIGS! This is Andrew Dixon. Found your blog through a link on John and Jessica Skiba's blog (John is a very good friend of mine). Keep in touch. Our blog is thedixonfamilynews.blogspot.com. Keep in touch! I hope you're doing well in Utah.
Emily and Sara----I can clear this up--- I was reading the Skiba family blog Tuesday night and saw the links they had to some friends' blogs. Right above the link to our blog I saw one that said "I Didn't Say Banana" (thought it was an interesting blog title) and clicked on it. I kinda skimmed thru the blog and stopped dead when I saw a post with pictures of Emily and Steve Craig!!! So Emily I guess your sister Sara lives close by the Skibas in Queen Creek and knows them.
Further explanation of the connections here: John Skiba went to law school in Vegas with my husband Andrew. They are now very close friends. Steve and my husband were missionary companions in Chile. AND, Emily and I are related...we're like cousins. My maternal grandma is a Godfrey from Clarkston..I think we've talked about it before.
Sorry this is a long comment, but I hope it clears things up--so glad we found you and we'll keep in touch thru the blog world!
If you are completely unprepared in (almost) every way to birth your child due to the fact that your body does not really do spontaneous labor and you thought you had a good two weeks to worry about details and thus {house is a mess haven't begun to wash or sort baby clothes no newborn diapers ...or bouncy seat ...or swing ...or nursing pads ...or bassinet/port-a-crib for your room ...or pacifiers packed hospital bag is but a distant dream child's big oral presentation on William Clark is not ready to go baby name is not solidified neighbor kids are coming over tomorrow for a playdate not mentally geared up to go drugfree have tickets to Friday night's football game haven't registered with the hospital no groceries in the house} BUT, you're emotionally and physically ready to not be pregnant anymore and to meet this new precious babe and he has joyously turned his little cute self around so he is head-down after all the fuss about being breech, AND, you tiredly say
Discussions of The Mormons are all over the place. Is it weird that the first time I ever heard of the documentary was the end of last week? Let me opine briefly on what I thought, before I read too many other commentaries by people who can better articulate what I am thinking. I mostly liked it and think it was long overdue. I am kind of fascinated by the reaction people have had to our Church throughout its short history, and I don't just mean the negative reaction, although that part fascinates me the most. Join this newfound religion and leave England to follow a prophet who has seen God? Leave my wife and young kids to fend for themselves on the farm while I go on a mission for three years at a time? Pour tar over people and roll them in feathers? Issue an order to exterminate an entire civilization? Not elect somebody because of his religious affiliation? Teach anti-Mormon classes to the 7th graders at my church so they can approach their Mormon friends fully equipped with kn

Don't worry-- I'm sure that you'll see him again. You two were just meant for each other. . .
