It's gone :(

I have lost my precious camera. My faithful companion was always in my purse. The other day we were at the river, and once we were home, it was gone. It probably fell out while I was putting everything in the car. *sob* I will be in mourning for several days. $150 down the drain. CURSES!

River Fun

We went to hang out at the Weber River this past weekend. Denny and Isaak took the raft down the river, while Sophie and I played in the shallow water. We'll have to invest in some tubes, so that we can all go down.
Then Monday we went back. Sophie, Quimby, Isaak, Monan, and I had a good time. Sophie spent a good majority of the time collecting rocks in her little blue bucket. We found out that Quimby can swim. :)
And caught itty bitty fish!!! Super cool huh? We probably scared this particular one to death. After traumatizing it by catching it in the bucket, we poured it into Monan's hands, then I chased it around until I caught it in my fingers. After all that I flung it back into the water. Poor fish. (super cute nail polish huh?)

FYI- there is a video of the boys going down the river at the bottom of the page in the video bar. And the rest of the pictures are in a slideshow in the sidebar. ENJOY!

Playing In The River

This evening we took a walk down the little path by the river. I love that path. It was originally going to be my friend Monan and me taking Sophie on a walk, but we got Denny and Isaak to go with us.

Once we could see the river, Sophie squealed "water!" The kid is a fish, just like her daddy. We went down to the water and started throwing rocks. Sophie and I sat at the edge of the water, and tossed in little pebbles. The boys decided to show off their man-ness and heaved giant rocks as far as they could.

Men. :P Eventually Denny threw off his sandals and headed into the water, Sophie soon followed. She loves doing anything he does, its so cute. After a while, she demanded that I enter the water as well. Then we made fun of Isaak and Monan until they gave in.

I wish I would have taken my stupid camera. It was so cute watching Sophie, she got really into the rock throwing. She even wanted to throw big rocks just like the boys. We are going to go back tomorrow, and I'll be sure to take my camera then.

JCP Sale

When I went to bug my little brother this morning, he informed me that JC Penney was having a big sale. We loaded up the car, and headed out. I felt let down. I have been spoiled by WalMart and Ross prices. When I think sale, I think $1-$5 things. When JC Penney thinks sale, they think $10 +, and I'm cheap. :)
Without bothering to pick things out for myself, we headed to the infant section. Lo and behold there was a $3 tower of clothes. Sadly, anyone and everyone in a 10 mile radius, with a child in 18 month clothes, had already raided the rack. I did however find these cute things, and all for $15. :) Pretty nice, if I do say so myself. Link to JCP


FYI- the sale goes on from now until tomorrow at 1:00

Spit Fail

Denny thought this was too funny not to share.

Yesterday we decided to picnic at the duckie park. Once Denny got off work, we grabbed some KFC, and headed over there. We ate up our yummy food, and tossed some little rocks into the stream.

While packing up the food, Sophie made a run for the stream. Scared the shit out of me. Denny was able to grab her before she fell off the big rocks though. Kudos to dad for his mad running skills.

Anyways, while we were driving home I had gunk stuck in my throat. Like that booger/spit mix. Nasty huh? So I NEEDED to spit. We were turning at a light, so I held the nasty glob in my mouth until we finished turning. I leaned out the window as far as I could and went to spit then... SPLAT! The nasty glob smacked right into my arm.

Denny watched the whole thing in the mirror and broke out laughing. Stupid wind. The entire ride home Denny commented on my lack of skill. He prides himself of the fact he can spit 20+ feet.
