Summer

I love summer! Yesterday we went mini-golfing with friends. I love the fun, lazy days I'm spending where there's little to worry about and I can just have a good time with family and friends. I'll try to better about keeping you updated on our Summer Fun!!!!!!!!

GALOON!

We just went to LAGOON! Me, Princess, and Daddy went for an afternoon and had a really good time. We mostly rode the super-scary stuff. Princess rode everything w/ us, even the Wicked Rollercoaster that I just had to show above. She even rode the towers that blast you up. We had a really good time and hope to go again soon to use our Season Passports. :)

Equation

Stoumach Flu+ During Scout Camp= Ugh.

The Joys of the Mind of SamMan

Ah, SamMan has exceded our expectations as family comedian this weekend.



1. Yesterday, we were driving to Costco on another rainy day. (And, right now I'm listening to a heck of a storm starting to calm. Oop, nope I just heard lightning. Now, there is no more lightning. Now, I will continue on.) In the car, we had some semi-broken toys that we were going to take to the DI sometime. Since I'm sure that you are sick of me typing my thoughts, and I'm trying to make my blog more EXCITING!!!



So, I will just show you the conversation now.


SamMan: Can we get a new one of this toy?


Daddy: No, its just for littler kids like Willwam for their cribs.


SamMan: You might like it!!


SamMan: And it would make a FABULOUS PRIZE!!!!!!!!! (in a "The Price is Right" announcer voice.)

2. SamMan: Joshy, I'm gonna roast this marshmallow on the fire!


Jogus: I don't think we should do that.

SamMan: Why, what's the problem?!

3. (during family prayer.)

SamMan: Thank you for the food. Morgan is my girlfriend. She can't come over because its a Sunday, but once we made a cake. Amen.

Amen to that!

(Morgan is a neighbor who comes over often. SamMan is now convinced they are boyfriend/girlfriend.)

Sigh

No, this is not a picture on our camera. (From the good ol' google image search.) I just am so depressed that the weather has been so rainy lately. It's pretty crazy. Today, the weather's beautiful and sunny. But yesterday was the biggest hail/rain storm I've ever seen. It was like a river on the street. Even before this crazy storm, "they" said that we've already had more rain in June than the average for the whole month. (Yay.) On a snowday in March, (or was it April) I joked we'd still have snow on the ground in July. The way its going now, the laugh might be on me. I think I need to enjoy our good weather day right now.

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

My Grandpa Has this thing for the Touring shows coming to Salt Lake called Season Tickets. Its basically one ticket that's valid for the four or five shows coming that year. It's in the same seat on the same day. The big plus is that he can buy extra tickets to popular shows earlier than everyone else.

Anyway, he usually gets 5 season tickets a year, and than takes friends and family with him. (You can have more than one person use a ticket.) Last night, he took me and Princess to "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang." It was so much fun. They had an incredible brightly painted car that did actually "fly", even with people in the car. All the costumes, set, and lighting were top-notch. :)
The songs were good, and two characters in paticular made everybody laugh out loud. It was so
much fun!

SamMan & Willwam in: Jogusboy's How to Suceed in a Job in the Entertainment Industry While Still in Diapers (a Beauty and the Jogus Publication.)

Wow, these kiddos are growing up fast. SamMan is continuing his long-running gig as family comedian. Today was especially side-splitting.

(Watching Princess jog outside, in a conversation to himself.)

"Anna is a good runner. Am I a good runner? Yes, I am. Rememeber when I runned with her in the Jogapalooza?" (Jogapalooza is our school's fun run.)

(Wanting Princess to give him back the DVD case she was looking at.)

"You need to give it back right now! 1.... 2.... 3....!"

(Laughter.)

"Hey, that's not funny!!"

Willwam is currently trying his luck at becoming a professional gymnast. So far, here is his response.

"4 Stars!"- Billy Bob Bob the Critic Dude "An Honor to all gymnasts in Mickey Mouse Diapers!"-
Shirley Shirleyson- Lil'Critics.com

He is a very rolly-poly baby. When you set him down, he usually ends up several feet away, on his stoumach, trying his darndest to chew the nearest item. In a recent experiment, he could roll across a blanket, and ended up with a toy train track tunnel-thingy around his leg.

So follow these two bright, young examples, and you too can be a star without the pains of toilet training.

SamMan wanting to name Willwam Root Beer! Tee hee.

(Ah, the fun of looking back at old blog posts, and its not just mine I sift through! :))

Now to the real point of this post (LOL) is that this is a post! Because this is post 100!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't believe I've typed and put pictures in this white little box, and then shared them 2 the world! I know I am most likely more shocked then everyone else is. I would have never thought that I would do 100 posts! Thank you for reading my blog even when it is monstorously boring. I will try harder to make it exciting, so that you don't worry about taking a nap in the middle.

100!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

New, New Colors

I just can't make up my mind, can I? I've been having a great summer! (got out June 5th.)

Yup, life right now is pretty boring.

One Question

New Colors- Yes or No?

The Last Week of May (This Post Will Most Likely Be Terribly, Terribly Boring) aka: Post 96

The title says it all.

On Monday, we did the 4th annual Lehi Kids Triathalon. It was a blast. We swam, rode our bikes, and then ran. We thought that when I made it to the stop where you start to run, I could just change into my tennis shoes there so that I didn't have to push my really wet feet into socks/shoes at the bike stop. However, Mo and Daddy didn't end up making it, so I ran in my flip flops. Princess did well and kept informing us that "She got second out of the little kids." (If you try to tell her that se got second out of the little kids, she gets upset.)

On Thursday, at our school fun run, the most ironic thing happened. After you run, they do a raffle and give out prizes. Me and Princess both got towel packages, (hers girly, mine boyish) that came with goggles. These were both at seperate raffle times, w/ no intentions of the brother-sister giveaway. And we both needed both of those things. A Coincedence? I THINK SO!

(And, Princess got a bag with passes to go to a bunch of cool places, so many activities will revolve around the passes she got.)

PS- I am almost to 100 posts! :)

An Amazing, Touching Story (Tears)

It might be that I have a personal connection to this story after spending time with my autistic cousin, but it sure prevents me from having dry eyes. Check it out in The Friend June 2009.

"My Brother is My Best Friend. By: Boston, Age 8

My big brother has autism. It is hard for him to talk and make friends, but he is my very best friend. I take care of him when we ride the bus to school, and I make sure he doesn't get lost when we are away from home. I help him find his class in primary and pray for him every night. (Teary.) I have faith that one day he will be able to tell me what he has been thinking all this time. He will smile and tell me that I am his best friend too. I am so lucky to be his brother. I love him."

Crying yet? :)
