Kaylene

Well Kaylene has put in her first week of collage life.I have to tell you I was a little sad on monday. The nice thing is that she will be living at home and going to Weber (the Davis campus). She is just doing her generals for now, then she will decide later what she wants to become. I was able to take a picture of her on the first day, like i have done all these years past. But this year she told me that this was retarded that she shouldn't have to have her picture taken but i told her just humor me, as she is trying to run out the front door. So here is her picture. I Love You Kaylene.

The Day At Pineview

Kaylene and I had the oppurtunity Thursday to go to pineview with the Larrabee family(Beccie's parents). We started our day at 5 am, we had to be over at thier house by 5:45 to leave by 6. When we got on the water a little after 7 the water was like glass. It was awesome. We started tubing, oh man we had so much fun.
After everyone had a turn on the tube and others skied we headed for the beach to spend some time there. We hung out and then it was back into the boat for some more tube action. The Larrabee's have this thing they call a tube off, so two people go and the one that falls off first has to return to the boat, the one on the tube takes on the next person and so on. Well this lasted a little while and it turned out that Beccie was the winner. ( oh by the way i wasn't part of this)
So after that Izzy(beccie's niece)(i call her izzy her name is Isabelle) said she wanted to go slow and wanted to go with me and i was all for that, i love to go slow. We get on the tube and she yells to her grandpa that she is ready and that he better go slow, so he did, but when he reved up the engine to go,she got a little scared and yelled, so i tried to calm her down and while doing so i was showing her where to hang on and the next thing i knew the front of the tube was going into the water and i knew at that point we were going in. And we did, but when i came up i was a little disorented and when i saw the boat i knew which direction the tube would be but the scary part of this story was that i couldn't find Izzy, i looked around and saw that her little body was trapped under the tube. So i quickly lifted the tube to find a very freaked out lttle girl, gasping for air and screaming at the top of her lungs. I held onto her till the boat came around, and everyone on the boat could her screaming (as well as, i am sure, everyone else on the lake,) so when they pulled up they were clapping and telling Izzy that she pushed Tammy off the tube and that she won. She started to calm down and all she wanted was to get back into the boat as i started to lift her into the boat she started screaming noooo i want to swim. Well anyway things turned out good and we had a blast. Thanks to the Larrabees for an awesome day. Here are some pics!

Snow/Nielsen Annual Cabin Trip

So last weekend Reese and I, Kaylene, Reese Jay and Beccie, went with our good friends the Snows,(Russ,Patti,Chelsea,Ciera and Kaylee)to thier cabin in Joes Valley. We had a great time. We weren't able to do any water activities due to the major thunder storms that showed up around noon both days we were there. So we had alot of fun inside playing board games, teaching Beccie Philidelphia Rummy, ( very fun card game, alot like phase 10) and just visiting. All the guys did go to the resevoir and do some fishing. I guess Reese Jay was the only one that caught a fish but he released it and of course none of them had a camera so there is no proof, but he did say it was a small rainbow trout. Way to go Reese Jay! well here are a few pics of our fun trip. Thanks again to the snow's for inviting us. We love you guys!!!

Day With My Girls!

So today i was able to have my best friends girls Ciera and Kaylee down to my house for a day of making cards, and boy am i glad i did. We had so much fun. I kinda had to lead them on the layout and we talked about what would be cute then they picked thier colors and this is what we came up with. I think they did a terrific job. the only thing I regret is not getting thier pictures of them with the cards they made. Oh well! When we were done and I was taking them out to meet thier mom they asked me if we could do this like once a month, well of course i was all for that. Anytime i can get the chance to make cards I'm there! Love Ya girls, Thanks for a great day!
