Family pics....were so much fun!! Thanks Malinda :) Here is a preview

SO much fun....

On Sat. the girls and I packed up and headed out! That's right NO BOYS!! I pulled our honkin huge trailer for the first time by myself up Logan Canyon to Bear Lake! No worries though we made it safe and sound!! That's more than I can say for the guy on the motorcycle 3 cars in front of me! Yikes!! Pure craziness.....cuz I needed that sight for my already taut nerves! Geez well I was in the right passing lane (so all the crazies could pass me) and a gold car and the motorcycle and then a black truck managed to pass so along a curve I go and I see the gold car on the side of the road then I notice the motorcycle on the ground and the back tire is still spinning and about 10-15 feet away is the guy just barely starting to sit up. HOLY CRAP is all I could repeat for the next few miles! Anyway the guy in the black truck had just gotten out and was running towards the crash sight!! HA SO needless to say every muscle in my body was in about 3 knots each!
Well we get there and meet up with my friends Buffie, Dawn and Jamie and their kids and the FUN begins! We had an absolute blast riding the wave runners, playing smashball, riding the half-pipe tube and just hangin out and enjoying the sun!
Let me just say that it has been about 5 years since I had ridden a wave runner, well Dawns were top of the line go fast awesome ones. So of course I take it slow, for a while then I let loose! I was pretty comfy and had Maycen on the back with me and we had hit some pretty harsh waves! Well I had my contacts in and water splashed my face and I had to close my eyes for half a second and next thing you know is I see the handlebars fading away from me!! I come up out of the water and Maycen is looking at me like WTF happened? I started laughing so hard that I swallowed about a gallon of water! What a sight!?!
Then later that day the kids had finally talked me and Buffie into riding on the tube that is for 3 people so we rode with Dominique another one of the kids for a few minutes and Buffie had had her feel, so Maycen wanted to jump on with me and so here goes....well Maycen was hanging on tight and Dawn who was pulling me silently mouthed to me to HANG ON cuz she wanted to dump Dominique I say OK and she takes off...next thing you know I am in the water laughing hysterically cuz I totally knew she was taking off! Holy cow we had such a blast...but every muscle in my upper body is SORE from hanging on to the tube! GEEESH what a FUN workout! All in all we had an absolute blast!

OH MY!!!!

I officially have 2 (yep you read it correctly...2) 8 year olds!! And no they aren't twins! It is that time of the year that my girls are the same age for 1 and a half months!! JJ was born 8-22-99 and Maycen was born 7-10-00!!

HOLY SMOKA-RONIES!!!

Don't even worry! We have bravely survived these past 2-3 weeks. But not without a whole lotta craziness!! Geez where do I start? Well during the week of Jordyn being at camp we were crazy busy with getting ready to be gone for a week of campin and getting our stupid sprinkler system (that Mike claims he did ALL by himself...WHATEV) He says that I just supervised....ugh...I handed him all the parts and did some diggin! I went to the store and got all the random parts that he needed and I am a good supervisor! HA HA Anywho it was a very good thing that we stayed busy for that whole week or I think I woulda gone nuts without my oldest child being home!
Anyways Friday we go pick up sister SUE (Jordyn) and the first thing she says to us is "Did you bring some butt pain relief?" WHAT??? Apparently when she went on her horse ride, it was for 3 hours and she got a bit sore!! It was freakin hilarious! Welcome home Jord!!
SO we go home and let her shower then we are off to a week of camping (in the new fabulous trailer) YIPPEE!! SO she was home for about an hour before she left for another week!
We went up into Idaho with my friends Dell and Tina that I have played ball with for about 12 years! Mike has never met them but he was a trooper on goin to a random place with all these random people! Cuz' if you know Mike you know how much he DISLIKES PEOPLE! Well we go to Glendale reservoir in Idaho. Pull in and there were probably 15 trailers there! Not knowing what Dells trailer looks like I randomly walk through peoples parties and see if I can find them. Come to find out ALL the trailers were with Dell. AAAH CRAP is my first thought cuz all these people are here and Mike doesn't know anyone! (SIGH) Well we start gettin the trailer setup and here come 4-5 guys that offer to help so that eased a bit of tension for Mike. Come to find out they were such a fun and welcoming group that we didn't feel like intruders in the least! Best part was..is that we camped like 15 feet from the reservoir so needless to say my kids became fish for a week! Seriously they spent 10 hours if not more in the water! It was great!! Needless to say we went through tons of sunscreen! Well this post is getting rather long so I will take a break and post pics when my dumb computer will work with me and my camera!!
