3 years Crickey

Now you must be thinking some what along the lines of “2 blogs posts in 2 days this is just mayhem” but I will try and be to the point.  It was our 3 year anniversary the other day.  Jessie commented on facebook along the lines of “Happy 3rd Anniversary Haydn Wright three years today and 18 months of that I have been pregnant and moody, I don't know how you put up with me! I love you!!!! Xx”.  I thought to myself “Shucks that’s awesome!”  So let me tell you about the day. 
 
We went out for dinner at Nandos.  Now just for those people that love spicy but haven’t had it in a while, don’t try and be hard and have hot nandos chicken  (I was sweating like a madman and it was quite unpleasant at stages).  After that we thought we would go and get some ice cream.  I think it has been a tradition of ours to get Movenpick ice cream so we did.  As you can most likely tell these first 2 events are just minor details in the awesome story that is about to follow.

We got this cheap deal where it was $14 for a game of bowling each and 10 tokens for Video Games.  Now the bowling was over quite quickly mainly because of my excitement to play some video games.  We played a basketball game where you got tokens at the end of it.  We got 8 for making 42 baskets in minute.  We thought we were we choice.  We went to look what we could get for 8 tokens and all we could get was 1 lollie.  I thought “boy talk about getting your hopes up”.  We ventured on and played a ‘Deal or No Deal’ where you could get 100 tokens.  I was just doing straight No deal for everything.  There where 2 cases left 2 tokens or 70 tokens.  The bank offered us 36 tokens.  Jessie said “Lets take the deal”.  I quickly slammed down No Deal, and next thing 70 tokens were coming out.

We started to look and see what we could get and things started to get more interesting.  There were fluffy toys for 200, games for 100.  We eyed out a Kung Fu Panda toy for 200 tokens.  Now for those that don’t already know I have a talent with those claw machines.  I know when it’s the right time to go for it.  Weeks previous I took Gracie out for the day and came back with a fluffy toy, which amazed Jessie.  So our money tokens were getting thin.  There was a machine that you could win 100 tokens if you picked up the cup.  Sure enough first try, picked up the cup 100 tokens were ours.  We ended up getting the last few token all so we could get Gracie a Cuddly Kung Fu Panda Toy.
 
Point was it was a fantastic night.  I think I even got the comment “Best Anniversary ever!).  I could be wrong but to my memory the last 2 were either not planned or really budget Lol.  Even though I drive Jessie nuts I do love her.  She is like the best Mum I know, she is kind and caring, loves Gracie to bits, and does things, which makes me happy.  Love you heaps babe and can’t wait to grow old with you.

He's my father's, brother's, uncle's cousin's, Mum's Step Sister

So I thought to myself 'Well it's a Sunday lets have a look at the new.familysearch.org website.  I knew My mum had done a lot but when I was finished with it all I couldn't believe it.  I just had to keep on going so...

It starts of with my Family.  Mum and Dad, grandparents and great grandparents.

 As this picture shows it just didn't stop it kept going and going.  Sorta like an energizer battery, or if you can remember its like eating a pixi caramel.  Jessie said it looks like a sword.  It would of been massive but I got sick of clicking the next arrow on everyone, so I just wanted to see how far it would go.  On the far left its me and to the far right it gets interesting.
 As I kept going I saw Noah, Enoch but this was the icing in the cake.  When I got to Adam and saw the next arrow I got excited.  To see it right in front of you is pretty choice.  I thought I better count it too.  I am 83 generation descendant of Heavenly Father, that makes Gracie 84 (the year I was born).  I know I am a child of God but this is just straight up awesome.
Hope this motivates you somewhat.  Enjoy
