MoViE nIgHtS

Earlier today, Siri and I took Adelyn and Connor to go see "Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs". Siri and I were the only ones laughing through out the entire movie! Addie really liked it too of course, but we were just laughing at the adult humor in the movie. It was really cute and obviously funny! I think it was a lot better than the first two movies, but that is just my opinion. It was cute watching Connor dance on some of the parts, even though he wanted to be up and walking around.

Later tonight, Siri and I did not have anything much to do. But really, what can you do on a Monday night? So with Siri being husband-less and me being boyfriend-less, we decided to have a sister date night and go see "The Proposal". I will tell you this right now, it was one of the FUNNIEST movies I have ever seen! What made the movie even funnier was that Oscar Nunez from "The Office" was on it and he was pretty much the icing on the cake for the movie. I really liked it a lot and I would see it again!

Jon Schmidt

Alright, so I know that putting up a post of Jon Schmidt is a tad bit random, but I honestly have been constantly listening to a new song he just arranged for a new album coming out called "Bonus Tracks". Ever since I got an email of his new cd, I have stopped listening to "Love Story meets Viva La Vida". For most people that don't know what those songs are, Love Story was written by Taylor Swift and Viva La Vida was written by Coldplay and obviously he put them together! I LOVE this song and have been waiting impatiently for it. (And i promised Cameron I would send him a cd when it came out) Unfortunately, they were being sued I guess for the song, or maybe even a different one, but they are just working on finalizing licensing agreements. Anyway, since I have been showing nearly EVERYONE the new song and the music video for the past two months now, I decided just to post it up.

Happy Independance Day

For the 4Th of July, my cousins and aunt Trice came up to celebrate wonderful Independence Day with us. Earlier, we had a barbecue and went swimming for most of the morning and late in the afternoon. The water was perfect, as well was the weather. The rain from earlier didn't stop our fun. But when does it ever? Our family parties are pretty awesome I think.

After we went swimming, we all got ready and chatted or play Super Smash Bros till it was ready for everyone to go. Just to say, when you play Smash Bros longer than twenty minutes, you intend to get bored, so I went upstairs and took some pictures. Now I know there are a lot of pictures of me, but I promise you I am not conceited. :)

Well, after everyone finally got ready, we left to go wait for the fireworks to start. We went to Clearfield High. All we did was sit around and talk to everyone and watched the kids play. Addie, Elizabeth, Ryan and Tal ended up tackling me most of the time, but it was something to do till the fireworks, and because I am the best aunt ever of course!!

Mosquito bites on your feet are the WORSE!

This is a game for Connor. When he has his binky in, I get it with my teeth, and he takes it back with his. He thinks it is so much fun

This is not even half our family

Tony and I started getting bored, so I asked him if he wanted to play bloody knuckles, but instead, we played some slap game that he and Taylor play. We were hitting each other has hard as we could. It was so fun and funny.

Well finally the fireworks started!! My pictures do not look good at all cause my camera was not working so that I could change it to a "firework" scene, so I just did what I could. These are just temporary just till I can get the pictures off my cousins camera.

Then finally after all the fireworks were done, Clint, Taylor and I went to Beto's. Good thing Clint knew the guy that was helping us, cause he gave us fresh hot food! Well, and Clint tipped him before he even gave us the food too.

Lagoon--Fun Starts Here

Today, Siri and I took Addie and Connor to Lagoon! Even just going on the kid rides, it was pretty fun. It was funny to watch Addie get exited to go on the rides. Just her reaction was priceless. Unfortunatly I did not bring a camera, but we are going to be going again next week and do the Lagoon-A-Beach. They also had a new ride there and it was so fun! I mean, it went in circles, but it went so fast! Addie was scared of it at first, but she ended up liking it. She mostly liked the swings for the little kids and the boat. We were only there for a short time cause Siri had a family in-law party she had to go to. So hopefully I remember a camera for next week.

Arizona to Utah (june 19,2009)

So Siri and I were finally going to drive to Utah without stopping at a hotel or anything. So it was a pretty long drive! But it was fun at the same time. The kids were really good and got just a bit fussy towards the end of the drive. Fifteen hours of disney shows and and Mickey Mouse club, I am sure it gets a little boring after awhile, but we made it!

The funny thing about the drive was just after ten minutes we left, Siri ended up getting pulled over. Sean had put this block on the license plate so that the traffic cameras did not recognize the number and they would not get a ticket. Well, unfortunatly the cop was watching her and pulled up behind us to check and pulled us over. Luckily she did not get a ticket for it, but it was still funny at the same time.

Small town of Cameron. The sign says "Cameron trading post". I was going to send this to my friend, but I decided not to.
