Our busy weekend

Next Monday is my "super birthday" where I turn the same age as the date. According to a family in our ward, on this particular birthday, the person gets to do WHATEVER they want to. I want to camp. I love it and we don't go often. However, our little monkey is not a great sleeper, and usually doesn't sleep well around us because he just wants to play. So, Friday night, we had a trial run. We set up the tent in the back yard and camped out there. We made it until 3am, when some crazy college students starting making a rukus. Nick says that we were crowding him too. It was good to know that Grant will sleep, and that we will be able to make it work, even if it's not the best night of sleep we'll get.

Saturday, we went on the boat. I love my husband for supporting me and my obsession with my childhood boat. We brought a family from our ward and spent the afternoon cruising around. The kids went on the tube and Nick skied (and did really well)! It was a little cooler than I thought it would be, but it was a great day and I'm really glad we went out there.

Saturday night, Nick packed up Grant and headed down to Bakersfield. Sunday, Grant, Nick, and his dad and brother went to Fabulous Fords at Knott's Berry Farm in LA. It was nice to have Saturday night off and a night of completely uninterrupted sleep, but I miss Grant and Nick and am anxiously waiting for them to get home (about 3 more hours).

Sometimes it's nice for them to go away for a night to realize how much you miss them!

I love that you still have all our canning pics on your sidebar. Those were such great memories. I'm so glad we did that.
