Old Video

This video was on my phone but I'm trying to update it and had to get it off. This is the only place it could be sent to for some odd reason and its side ways no clue how to fix it.

Sneak Peek...







I didn't mean to post these pictures from Hawaii but I have a setting on my phone that will email me my pictures and send them to the blog. I thought I had the blog one turned off but its on so I erased the really ugly ones of me and here are just a few of the many pictures we took in Hawaii. (Hopefully not to many people saw the ugly pictures.)

Fourth Of JULY!!!!

We had a great time this 4th of July weekend. We started the weekend off by heading up American Fork Canyon with our good friends the Hills in hopes of finding "the perfect" camp site. As we pulled up to pay or six dollar fee we saw the sign CAMP GROUNDS FULL. My heart sank I had spent most of the morning preparing for this camping trip and was not about to go home and unpack. Luckily David lived in that canyon growing up so we set off to find a spot. The only spot we found was off a dirt road but so beautiful! (no potties, YIKES) It was right by a stream and was one of the biggest flat spots we found. We set up camp and attempted a hike but were unable to find a good trail. We went up a couple trails only to come to dead ends. We finally gave up after trail #4 ended and headed back to camp for tinfoil dinners and s'mores(my personal favorites ). The canyon was so beautiful. Its so green this summer which isn't common for Utah. On Saturday afternoon we headed to the Brown Family BBQ hosted by the Julie's. So much fun to see the Brown family and Daniel loved playing with all the kids his age. Saturday night we stopped at KFC bought a bucket of chicken and headed to BYU to find the perfect spot to watch fireworks with the Hills. We found it (but i'm not telling you were because I want to keep going back and have a spot.) Daniel hated the fireworks which was a huge dissapointemt for me because I LOVE THEM. We ended up leaving right after they started because he was crying so bad.

Fshie Fshie Fshie



Yes we had a fish. We bought it about 2 weeks ago a beautiful red Betta fish and when I went to pay for it the lady behind the counter asked if I wanted to buy a ten day guarantee for an extra 80 cents. That was kind of surprising to me and I admit I did think about it but I was confident in my fish keeping abilities and turned her down. Even after I told her no i said out loud to her "just watch because I turned the insurance down this fish is going to die." I had a Betta fish in high school that lived well over a year so I didn't even worry about this one.
So this morning our Fish was alive and swimmin' I gave it its two breakfast pellets and went to the doctor and lunch. This afternoon when I went to feed it some more I noticed the morning pellets were still floating on the top and FSHIE was belly up on the bottom. I almost cried. I also realized that it lived such a short life I didn't have time to blog about it or even take a picture. I didn't think it was appropriate to take a picture after it was already dead so this is a picture of what our fish looked like only ours was a little more blue purple. Daniel loved it (probably not as much as I did) and we didn't even come up with a name except for Fshie which is what Daniel called it. I'll wait till after we get back from Hawaii to attempt Fshie #2.
RIP little FSHIE!
