independence days

it seems my mom has grown tired of writing this post only to have one or two of you out there publish a comment. She feels like she is wasting her time, so now i'm here to prove her wrong. if you are reading this please send $50 or more (your choice, we do accept checks) to our home to show my mom how wrong she is in believing that none of you care. those who follow through with this receive my thanks for making my moms day. (i guess maybe you could email her instead.) Now to our week I can't remember what happened monday, so obviously it wasn't very important so i won't waste your time with it, knowing what you're giving up to take the time to read this. Tuesday was canada day eh. according to our calendar we went to the library, jacob and reid had piano, i mowed the lawn and went to work, mom had a meeting at 7:00, my dad made blocks for a sister in charge of a project in our ward, and dad visited the old scoutmaster. pretty crazy day. the next day was pretty boring, all that really happened was the practice for the temple celebration, which turned out to not be that bad, considering we were actually home by 9. Thursday we left for utah. after my parents stalling all they could, and after we finished our chores, we left. we arrived at outhouse flatts and my parents dropped us off so they could stay in a hotel we feel real bad for them. they were "locked out" of the house they were going to stay in. it was a very long night for all attended. of course we got the campsite next to about 50 people, all yelling and laughing until at least 2 in the morning. i guess someone went and yelled at them, but i'm not sure it did much good. the next morning i was rudely awakened by my brothers plotting to pull the tent down on me. we broke camp quickly and drove to Huntsville for the breakfast they have in the park. we watched the parade come through and had a lot of candy and some water thrown at us. lunch was at the old Huntsville house. we wandered the park a little before my parents convinced us to go home by promising us fatboys for dinner. we waited till dark and then lit blakes $120 worth of fireworks. we live in a great neighborhood because there were fireworks in 5 directions. saturday we worked our tails off before we crashed and watched movies till bedtime. We now almost have a bathroom downstairs for those thinking of staying here. today caleb and felicity came over and now they get to spend the night for the next couple nights. So DeeAnna and Farris, They are being well taken care of. i'm sorry for whatever caleb learns from us. :)

Just be careful what Caleb teaches you! You might start wearing your clothes on backwards and bouncing off furniture. Just don't do his absent-mindedly walking into walls thing, it's not good. And yes Tarilynn, I do read your blog! It's just hard to comment sometimes with Caleb walking into walls, Felicity being dramatic, and Joseph trying to help me with the mouse and the keyboard. So thanks for taking away two of the distractions and enjoy them, I will want them back soon.
