Vacation

Tyler was able to come home for two weeks. I took a week off of work so that we could all go for one last vacation before school starts and Ty heads back to Prescott. We just recently learned that he will be there until December. If anybody wants to mow my lawn now and shovel my snow later let me know. I don't pay but I would be willing to bring you out a beverage. I'm sure there will be a lot of takers so don't feel bad if you just don't have the time....

Anyway, Tyler got in town on Monday. Britton has been wanting to go to the new Transformers movie so Tyler and Britton went to that and Shayna and I went to get her hair cut, then we went shopping for new backpacks and we went to dinner at Applebees, Shay's choice. It was so much fun to be able to have little dates with our kids. I want to do that more often. Tuesday we spent all day at surf and swim. Then on Wednesday we took the kids to the condo and had a blast. We fished, hiked, pic-nic'd, partied and relaxed. I loved every minute of it.





Shay, Gage and Britton. I have not seen Shay since he was eight years old. It was nice spending time with him. Now that he is eighteen he has chosen to live with his Dad so now we will get to see him a lot more often.

I love to watch Britton reel in the fish. It is so funny!

Shayna loves to help clean the fish and play with the guts...YUCK!!

At Puffer lake there is so many abandoned cabins. I thought it would be fun to take pictures by them.

Shayna was a little scared of them. Anytime the wind would blow a little the shutters on this cabin would slam. Tyler told Shay that witches lived in them....hmmm, I wonder why she was scared.

I have no idea where these chairs came from but Shayna thought they should go in the cabin.

This is were we went for our pic-nic. It was beautiful and the kids were entertained for hours with the stream.

Someone fell in.....I won't say who!

We also went to the desert to play. The kids got to drive and catch frogs. What's more fun then that?

Drinking and Driving?

Friday was my Mom's Birthday. Happy Birthday Mom, you are the BEST! We love and appreciate you so much! I took bunch of pictures and only two worked out. And they look terrible.

I wanted to hike down to this waterfall so bad. Tyler was a good sport and went with me. I'm so glad he did, I wouldn't have made it with out him. It was so much steeper and longer then it looked. I totally fell down at one point. It's good thing there were a bunch of flowers and bushes to grab onto or else I would have been down the river. I was insanely sore for three days after this. I think it's time to hit the gym.

My vacation is over and summer is coming to a close. It makes me so sad. I don't feel like we have had much of a summer this year and I DO NOT want my kids to go back to school. Is that weird? I'm just not ready.
