Welcome Gavin Mitchell Hough!

Gavin came to join our family today. He is a memorial day baby. He weighs 8 lbs. 14 ounces (exactly a pound heavier than Aidan) and is 21 1/2 inches long (exactly 1 inch more than Aidan). He is soo cute. He seems like a really calm baby so far. He just layed there for almost two hours with his eyes open just looking around not making a sound. We brought Aidan in to meet him. Gavin started to cry a little bit which scared Aidan so he started to cry. It was very funny. Falene is doing very well as is Gavin. We went into the hospital at about 8:30 this mourning and he was born around 3:09. We aren't sure what color his hair is. It's light, we think it's probobly the same color as Aidan's. It might have a hint of red, but we aren't sure. We are excited for him to join our family and can't believe how fast we went from just the two of us to being a family of 4 with a minivan. lol. Love you guys.

p.s. There is a couple of new Aidan videos up. http://www.youtube.com/rexburgpug

Fishing Pics

Just wanted to post the pictures from my deep sea adventure.

Welcome the newest member of our family!

No, it's not a baby. lol We got a brand new used minivan. Yay. We unfortunatly outgrew our Mazda 3. It was a cool little car and we will miss it. We just got the car yesterday and already our lives are so much easier. Adding the next kid won't even put a dent in the space. The thing also has like 50 cup holders, which is always a plus. I know alot of you are going to, or want to make fun of me for driving a minivan, but next time you are squeezing into your suv or car, remember we are stretched out with tons of room to spair. Love you all.

Deep Sea Adventure

Yesterday I got to do something really cool. I got to go Deep see fishing with the young Men here in the branch. If you didn't know, I am in the Young Men's presidency now. I have to say it was very very fun. We left at about 8:00 in the mourning and went out into the Gulf about 45 minutes. The boat goes pretty quick and the waves were pretty big, so every time we would go over a wave, your stomach would drop. It was like going on a 45 minute long roller coaster. It was awesome. Very hard to walk when the boat was moving because you would take a step and the floor would be like a foot farther down than it was a second ago, and then it would be a foot closer than it was. It was pretty funny watching/trying to get anywhere. They boat had a pretty big cabin you could go into that was air conditioned. They had food and drinks that you could buy to. So after 45 minutes we got to the first spot, which was right behind a huge oil tanker. Apparently they sit in the same spot for 2-3 weeks. They throw all their left over food off the back of the boat which attracts a lot of sea life. We did drift fishing which is were you put your line over the edge of the boat, and they let the boat drift with the wind which drags your bait along behind the boat. The first person to get something on the line was a kid from our group. He caught a Black Tip shark. It wasn't big enough to keep, so they let it go. Among the other things caught their, was a really big puffer fish, a mackerel, an eel, red snapper, atlantic sharpnose shark, remora, and a vermilion snapper. I caught 2 of the sharpnose sharks. They were around 3 feet long. It is a workout pulling them in. We also went next to two oil rigs and did the same kind of fishing. It was a blast. Come on down to Texas and we'll go fishing. I don't have any pictures of the trip to post at this time. Falene thought I might throw our digital camera overboard(like I have ever thrown anything accidently into the water) so I brought along a disposable camera. When I get the pictures developed, I'll post them.
