TONS of FUN in BURLEY

May 3rd & 4th we got to take a little road trip to Burley, ID for Casey's State Bowling Tournament. I asked my friend Heather to come along and am sooo glad I did. We had a TOTAL BLAST! I can honestly say that a little get away every now and then is definitely the best medicine. Casey had to bowl 4 games each day. He didn't do so well his first two games, not too easy to get used to a ball you've never bowled with before. He realized about McCammon that he had forgot his ball at home. OOPS!!! After trying 3 or 4 different balls, he found one that would work and started doing better. After he had finished his 4th game, we headed to Twin Falls for a little dinner and shoppin'. Then back to the hotel, which was really nice, it had a big indoor pool and a nice continental breakfast, both of which we took full advantage of. After the pool closed for the night, we went back up to our room and had a bit of our own fun!(see pict. below) Call us simple or easily amused but I'm telling you this is the cheapest, funniest fun you will ever have! A $.99 pkg. of knee highs and your set. The funniest part is that you never get the same look twice. The saddest part is that there are so many people out there who have never tried it. If you are one of them, you are missing out BIG TIME! How fun would it be to have a nylon party? Do you think any of our husbands would participate?? Ok, back to bowling, Casey bowled a lot better the second day. I tried taking some pict. of him bowling but we were so far back and zooming in just made it blurry so some video and these pict. is all I have. We hit the road for home as soon as he finished his last game. It was good to get back home but I already can't wait till next year!

Colt loses tooth # 3

04/25/08

It took a little talkin' but Colt finally agreed to let me tie a string around his tooth and yank. I couldn't stand to look at it dangling there any longer. I told him if we didn't get it out, he was going to end up swallowing it while he was eating and not have anything to leave for the toothfairy. He was a little hesitant but in no time it was out. This is the 3rd. tooth Colt has lost. The other top front tooth is going to be the next to go, it's getting pretty loose. Permanant teeth, Wow! Where did the time go?? My boy is growing up too fast.

David's Red Stag Hunt in New Zealand



I'm back to blogging! It only takes a minute to add a new post, I've just been putting it off and now I'm way behind! So here goes, time to catch up!
April 10th through 18th David got to go over to New Zealand on a Red Stag hunt. This was something he had wanted to do for a long time so it was neat that it worked out for him to go. The cost was outrageous but I think he had enough fun to justify it. He flew out of Pocatello into Salt Lake, from Salt Lake to L.A then spent the next 14 hrs. in the air. David HATES to fly so that tells you right there how bad he wanted to do this. As if being on a plane for 14 hrs. wasn't already bad enough, he got sick with the flu in L.A and was sick pretty much the whole trip but made the best of it. While there, he got to shoot a Red Stag, a Ram and a Spanish Goat. He shot the Stag 683 yds. away. It had 8 pts. on one side and 10 on the other. We don't have the heads yet, they are on their way here from New Zealand. When they arrive David is going to get the Stag scored and figures it will score 400+ Boone and Crockett. He will then have them all mounted. That'll be another huge chunk of change. So who out there thinks I have grounds to get a new front door and a sectional for my living room? Ha Ha!!
