Getting Caught-Up with Summer Pictures
by Mike on Sep.19, 2009, under General, Kidz, Married Life, Technobabble
We’re sure many of you are wondering why there are so few posts coming in here as of late. We may refer to it as the ‘Facebook effect’ – since the vast majority of our friends are on Facebook, a lot of the smaller updates go there, and the blog goes without updating. But every once in a while, we will get on here and post photos – because a lot of our extended family doesn’t do the whole Facebook thing, but they will visit the family website to see pictures of the kids. Hence today’s blog post. (continue reading…)

Johanna’s version of the camping trip

I just read mike’s post, and I think I see things a little differently.
First, Mike acts the same way my dad does right before vacation. Grumpy and mad because things arn’t happening as fast as he would like. The only differance is as soon as my dad gets on the road he actually enjoys the vacation. I think Mike’s problem is he doesn’t like the beach thing. Next time we go camping we will go to the mountains close by with no lake and lots of hiking and bike riding. I think that is his idea of fun camping. Me on the other hand grew up in the water and therefore can’t get enough of it.
I had a great time and would love to go to pineview every year if my hubby liked it as well. I guess we will have to compromise and venture out to other things. We also went to the dinosaur museum in Ogden. It was like the zoo except with dinosaurs instead of animals. The dinosaurs were fake but they had good sound effects. We were able to pretend we were in Jurassic Park! We also went to see the Monks at a little church. They chant seven times a day starting at 3:30 am. They also sell honey that they make and Jam that their other monk friends make from another state. We bought some jam we ate it within the next week. It was good.
I also found out that I love to cook even when camping! That was nice because my mom hates to cook while camping and I thought I might be like her. I also didn’t throw up once while on this trip! It was a nice break. Although right when I got back I started up again. aarrggg.
We did not spend as much time on the beach as Mike would make you believe, instead we had a nice balance.
It was fun.
