This Summer is Fly

Posting has been slow because i've been keeping busy. The good kind of busy. Every night has been full of swimming, kinect, irrigation water, riding out in the desert and checking things off our summer bucket list. So I figured pictures would be the ultimate way to describe the last little while. To all my design friends living all over the country, please come visit...i'll take ya frog giggin'!

Mady was totally oblivious we planned a surprise party for her 17th bday. She even passed me and taryn at a stop sign holding her bday cake in our hands...still oblivious. It worked out perfectly.

Some friends were willing to be the catchers for a game of fugitive for her surprise party so we gathered up in the ranger and headed out, it ended up being A LOT of fun.

We crossed off something on our summer bucket list! Thrift shopping in Otown. Seriously though, go to the senior thrift store...i need to do a whole post on the beautiful things we picked up. "Skurts" anyone?

Taryn, Mady & I watched Jonas Brothers Concert Experience...it got a little out of hand... (to say the least)

This little beauty was just pulled out of a hidden folder on my mom's camera memory disk. I had been looking for it forever! So you get to enjoy it now. Our family held our 1st Nativity last Christmas. Now that all us kids are all grown up...we just rolled with it. Us 3 lucked out with the 3 wise(wo)men.

Oh, one more thing...what's the one thing you have to do every summer? This bucket list I mentioned earlier is filled with all sorts of good stuff, but good suggestions are always appreciated! A few other things on the list:
-Walk the strip (my friends and I got to talking about it, pretty much none of us have just walked the strip...living so close by we always just go for shows or whatever)
-Ride the roller coaster at Stateline (I want to do this every time i'm traveling to CA!)
-Night fishing
-Actually gig a frog (we went a a few nights ago and saw a huge bullfrog but we weren't prepared haha)
So you get the picture...and i'm totally looking forward to hearing some more ideas!

Make sure you don't go to Primm to ride the roller coaster on even a breezy day, they won't let you. We stopped one time but they wouldn't let us due to the wind..

Tell Mady to stop doing the splits, that gives me the creeps!
