A look back

Until I have time to catch up on all my blogging, here is a look back at a couple things that I did. last year. . .

Here we at Yosemite hiking Half Dome. Shaun (with the stick), was really feeling his oats. Just for the record, looking good is all about confidence. If I can rock a trash bag poncho this hard, don't you think you could pull off skinny jeans? Yeah, maybe I'm just a confidence freak, that could be the case too.
Here we are on a little hike up Little Cottonwood Canyon. That my friends is how brothers help each other out. Of course, there is no picture of me lifting Lance into the seat. Oh well.
This is a classic. This was not supposed to be a picture of Steve and I, but as you look at all these gawkers enjoying themselves at a Giants game, the laser-esque focus of Steve and I as we focus on the game truly is a think of beauty.

I have a Sister . . . Missionary

This is my sister Renee, she is now on a mission in Singapore. Don't fret, she is sending my parents updates that they are posting on a blog, the link is on the side, or you can check it out here.

And the wait goes on

Here is a picture of Christmas morning as a little teaser for all of you that have been waiting for me to post, I think I will do a little video slide-show, so this will have to tide you all over until I am finished.

Look out World, I'm Comin' to Portyland

I am starting my Christmas vacation in Portyland this year, and I think this video will give everyone an idea of what that trip will entail. That's right, a Harrison tradition is back!

Robert Pine, SUPERSTAR!

You may remember this mug. This guy's name is Robert Pine, he recently played Jim's Dad on the Office when Pam and Jim got married. During that episode someone pointed out to me that this was the guy that plays the Dad on the Mormon movie, On the Way Home. Where the family loses a daughter, and then the college daughter introduces everyone to the church and they all get baptized together. It is a classic. Turns out that this guy is the father of Chris Pine, who recently played Captain Kirk in the new Star Trek movie. I just thought this was a funny piece of trivia. I hope we can all remember that Robert Pine's character in On the Way Home decided to give to charity in that movie. I hope we can all get in the spirit of giving this holiday season. That is all.

Christmas is right around the corner!

Tomorrow is my second test, and it is a doozy. Criminal Procedure, all of the stuff that talks about rights in the criminal justice system. You can all laugh and say that criminals shouldn't have any rights, but these rights are what sets this great country apart from police states that treat their citizens like second-classers (and in some cases like third or fourth or coach-classers). Everyone in America is a first class citizen, although the Hollywood crowd would have you believe that they are first class(+) citizens. Anywho, looks like I am letting the finals bitterness come through so on to the real reason for this post.
I thought as a little study break I would let everyone know that I am not letting Harrison traditions lapse - even though I am far from the family. This year I focused on the old tradition of opening a window in the advent calendar every day (or at least every day that I remember). From Trader Joe's no less! I am sure that you are all suitably jealous that I do not have to share, although the chocolate is not as sweet as when you had to watch you sibs eat theirs right in front of you while you can hardly wait for your turn to finally come around.
It is also pretty cold here, so as you can see I am getting ready for a Utah winter.

Anywho, I am looking forward to more Christmas traditions soon. One more week and three finals, that is what I call a party!

I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas, are you?

Every once in a long while, I like to take a study break during finals. I find it clears my head and helps me study better. I also like to think that it entertains people.



Just a little ward musical number I put together. If you dream it . . .
