MARCUS! HILARIOUS!

So if any of you watched the last session of Last Comic Standing then you will know that Marcus is the funniest guy I have ever seen in stand up comedy. I am not usually a big fan of stand up because not there are many of them that I think our funny enough to really make me laugh. For those of you that don't know, Marcus is a comedian from Josh hometown of West Jordan (Taylorsville, close enough right?) He was on this last session of Last Comic Standing. He was in the final two and lost to the only girl in the competition (which is why I think she won or maybe I am just playing favorites). We had the chance to see him at Wiseguys this weekend and I have never laughed so hard in my life. Josh was so excited and is Marcus's biggest fan :) If any of you haven't had the chance to see him, even on TV, you need too. He will be taping a new DVD here in Salt Lake Sept 9. We are trying to get a group together. Unfortunately, there wasn't alot of news coverage (like David Archuletta got) here in Salt Lake. Probably, because he is a comedian and has tattoos (that is Utah for you). But any way he is hilarious. So check him out! You can check some of his comedy at myspace

Why???

So I mention before that we are selling out duplex. We love Bountiful but we don't love being landlords or old homes. The day before we were suppose to put the place on the market disaster srikes. The water heater in the lower unit busted so we had a bit of a flood which has taken about a week to get cleaned up and still isn't done. At the same time the sprinkler pipe on the side of the house and front broke causing little lakes at our house. Of course the dogs love it. And to top it all off out swamp cooler went out. So needless to say we won't be putting the place on the market until next week. Keep your fingers crossed that nothing else will happen.

That is what is happening in out life. I will try to post more often were just crazy busy. Keep your fingures crossed that we will sell this place fast and without any more disasters. Also, our prayers go out to my cousin Leah, Ryan and Gabe asn Ryan goes into surgery. We hope everything goes well and Ryan has a quick and easy recovery.

Wow!

Wow! It has been awhile since I wrote a post. So much has been going on. Most exciting is the new addition to the Russell Michael Jarvis. Josh's sister gave birth the this adorable little boy on July 21st. The Anderson clan met in Grand Junction and spent the weekend hanging with family and passing around Russell.

Derek will graduate from boot camp in Aug 16. We just found out he will be stationed in Lake Tahoe which lucky for us is only 6 hours away.

We have decided to sell our duplex so mom came down for a week to help us get everything ready. Thanks mom!!!! We were busting butt and the day before we were suppose to put it on the market the water heater in our lower unit broke causing a bit of a flood. After all that hard work we are now going to have to wait another week before we can put it up for sale. Our place looks pretty good but man it was hard work. Jack (our little jack russell) is staying with grandma for a couple weeks so we can show the house. Funny story about Jack. He is only about 12 lbs. and this weekend he thought that he could take on a 200 lb. saint bernard. Of course the bernard just sat there staring at him. Guess you had to be there!

Well I think that is about it. Alyssah is getting taller everyday. I swear she went from 6 to 16 overnight but she is still fun. Megan will be moving her on Aug 22. I am so excited. She is going to school at Weber State. It will be so nice to have her around.
