Mass Photo Drop

Nicoooooole keeps saying I don't blog anymore....which I admit I haven't. I have, however, been taking random photos over the last six months. So here they are.

Going on a hike with the Russell clan. Emily is rarin' to go!


Thar they are.



At some point the girls started getting tired, so we started playing a game I call "Guess the disney character". Where I'd give them tiny clues and they'd guess.  Eventually Maddie took it to a crazy level where she'd have me trying to guess someone who'd turnout to be one of the squirrels from Sleeping Beauty. The Shmuck.











This was really soon after I'd gotten back, when Sarah, Dad and I had been digging the fence post holes. This one had a huge rotted roots, so we tried burning the roots. Worked....to a degree ha ha ha.

We had to tar the bottom parts of the posts, to keep them from rotting underground. Sometimes I'd space that it was on my gloves, and scratch an itch. Tar is not fun to remove.

My glorious comfy quilt made by my bestest friend Angie!  The past 2 nights have been hilarious. Otis has been sleeping between my swishy blanket and this sucker. How he can breathe under it is beyond me ha ha ha

Waterproof iPod/headphones are not a myth! I've seen them!  Lack of having these is the one reason I couldn't stick with swimming as a daily workout. I need music! Sadly, these aren't mine. Sigh.

Can't catch Rob, he's the gingerbread man.




I dunno why but Otis always seemed to like sleeping on Maddie every night.



Lagoooooon



I'd try to put my hands up in the air, but Maddie would immediately shout "Keep your arms and legs in the ride at all times! Those are the RULES Lyssa!"

Ice cream in Pioneer Village.

Sarah's got the moves.

Emmy ran the half mile race on the 4th of July.  Well done!

Maddie was a little preoccupied while her sister raced.



Jamming out with Liz.

There was a tree next to the T-Mobile store that was getting choked by a rope. So by jingo, I grabbed and knife and freed it from it's shackles.

The cute kiddies from Japan at our house!

Time for some serious steal the flag.  Team RED

And Team BLUE

Jalaire, voice of all reason, at my awesome MT Pit job. She's awesome, and seriously talented. She knows business up the wazoo, and she stage manages Savior of the World and other huge pageants for the church.  Head honcho.

This awesome lady is who I replaced at the MT Pit, Which bums me out because she was freaking awesome to work with. 

Went to "Blues, Brews, and BBQs" up at Snowbasin...or Snowbird...whichever is up near Pineview ha ha. So relaxing and fun!

Proof that yes, I do date. Not only do I date, but I date real sweethearts!

Gotta love late-night Jacuzzi nights with Liz.

Gotta love crazy nights with the Guys and Dolls cast.

Ok so we went up to the cabin, had an awesome time, and I absolutely sucked at horse shoes. I played it a LOT, and got worse, if anything ha ha ha. It didn't help that Dad would be watching and laughing at how I'd try to prep before each throw, the scum bucket. Any who, this is not from one of my throws. Its from the more experienced people on the other side, Grandpa and Dad. Their throws were intense.

Sarah and dad got crazy into pool up at the cabin.

We played so much volleyball, it was crazy. Most of the rounds were due to when we decided to play girls vs. boys. And the boys kept winning, but only barely, which we girls couldn't take. So we played like 20 games. And FINALLY WON! 

Taking a pic with some of Mikey's stage crew buddies at CPT, to send him in an email. gotta love attempting a totem.



Now stop nagging me Nicole, sheesh. ha ha ha!
