Lava Hot Springs

A few weeks ago the lot of us went to Lava. Brady's family owns land up there. So we decided to go camping. Unfortunately, Matt and I weren't able to camp. We went to a wonderful hamburger place, and then to this ice cream place. Left to Right: Brady, Shanae, Rosann, Pete, Me, Matt, Nicole and Greg. We had quite a bit of camera trouble while up there, but we finally got a good picture. The lady that took this was so patient with us.

Shanae, Rosann, Me and Nicole. We just sat around and chit chatted while the boys fished. This chipmunk was stealing my grass pieces. That was mine.

Matt, Brady, Greg and Pete. They tried so hard and still didn't catch anything. Poor boys. They had fun though. They could hear us laughing from across the pond.

We had a great time at Lava. Thanks for the invite Brady and Shanae. We should do it again before it gets to cold.

A very busy weekend

This past weekend, Housing had all the new residents move in. Which means overtime for me. I had to work 10 hours on Friday, 10 on Saturday, and 5 on Sunday. It was quite busy. When I wasn't working, The girls and I had a craft night at Nicole's. (The boys went fishing and camping.) I don't have any pictures from their activities. Matt said that they all caught fish though. Good for them.

Rosann made cards as her craft. I was very intrigued by this. Now, everyone that knows me well knows that I'm not a crafty person. So naturally this was interesting. I asked a lot of dumb questions.

Sara and Shanae made earrings. Sara is wearing the ones she made, they're blue and so pretty. Shanae was teaching her, it was cool to watch.

All of us. Left to Right: Sarah, Me, Nicole, Shanae, and Rosann.

Pete and Rosann had a house warming party on Saturday night. Pete, Shina, and Dave. Dave is Pete's brother, and Shina is Dave's wife. This swing set is in their back yard. Pete was afraid that Dave was going to break it. I was surprised that it didn't break, up close it looks ancient. It was a great party. Thanks for inviting us Pete and Rosann. I hope you enjoy the candle.

Family Home Evening Monday Night. Shanae and Brady were in charge of the dessert. We had strawberries, bananas, and marshmallows on skewers, then dipped in chocolate. Yummmm! Great idea Shanae. Pete and Brady.

Our group. Left to Right: Rosann, Pete, Shanae, Brady, Greg, Me, Nicole, Lesley, and Cameron. Lesley and Cameron are our newest members. Welcome.
