Ok Bonnie!!!! Thanks for Tagging me!

Well here it goes..... 6 insignificant things about myself that no one really knows!

1. I have almost no cartilidge left in my right hip

2. One time I had the hicups for 4 hours straight. Then I threw up and they were gone.

3. I hate to read, but if I have to, I love to read autobiographies

4. I love love green olives and maraschino cherries.......and I will eat a jar of each at the same time

5. I secretly want to be a princess

6. I can only fall asleep if the back of my heel is inbetween my big toe and the one next to it



Well there you go. I bet you will all sleep better tonight knowing all these new things about me!
I'm supposed to tag 4 other people--So...if you read this....I'm tagging Kristi, Suzanne, Teresa, and Julie!

HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!!!!!

It's not a vacation until someone gets hurt. . . .

Last weekend I traveled down to Arches National Park for a quick hiking / camping trip with some folks from the neighborhood. We had so much fun and had many adventures. We had to be back for the Primary program on Sunday so we were really only there for about 24 hours. Here are just a few of the things that we did.

Here we are at Delicate Arch. It was quite the hike to get there especially since it was smack dab in the middle of the day.




So we all decided to jump over this bush and land in the sand. Well it did not go so well for Amy. She may look like she is having fun, but come Friday when they harvest a tendon from her hamstring to repair her ACL that she blew out while landing the jump, I think fun will not be in her vocabulary.


This is Kristi and I at an arch. Not sure which one but it was still neat!


Here are some of the kids. It was fun to follow them around and see all the places they found to explore. They took us into tiny slot canyons and up huge rocks and they never ran out of energy.
