Lake, Camping, & Shopping!!

So Monday, the family went to the lake (Bear Lake for you out of towners). A fun time was had by all. Bre came up and met the family there. Of course, with my white body, I didn't go because of the fear I would cause with regards to being albino. Some of McKenzie's friends showed up. So here are some pictures to look at.

Bre and Lilli checking out places to take some pictures. Lilli of course is using her special "glasses" to help her see.

Who knows what Lilli is trying to do. I think it is just a ring toss that she thinks will help her swim in deep water.

Here is a mug shot that was taken the day a bunch of girls escaped from the insane asylum located in Evanston. Left to right is Holly Grandy, Lauren Fiscus, Hannah Dayton, Morgan Hoffman, McKenzie Thompson, Olivia Teichert, and Ana Cook. There was a reward out for their capture, but as you can see, it wasn't worth much to the people who were looking for them. For this reason, they are still out and about.

One thing that Shari forgot to tell Lilli and by the look on her face it just dawned on her too, there has to be water to go swimming. Apparently in Georgia, they don't have a lot of water.

Here is Shari, McKenzie, Lilli, Breanne, and Kennan after a long day at the lake. Kandyce was in Colorado doing a volleyball camp. What a family!!

Camping

So after the lake experience, we were suppose to go camping. That is what Shari wanted to do before she headed home. But when Mom told all of the kids to put sun screen on at the lake, nobody listened to her. Mom was the only one who did not get burned redder than a lobster. Everyone was so sore, they couldn't move. So we postponed the camping trip for a couple of days before everyone healed some what.

McKenzie had Youth Conference on Tuesday thru Thursday. The youth did a small trek in Idaho near Charleston. It is by Soda Springs. McKenzie had a good time, even though she was sore from the sunburn. When Mac got back, we went up Pine Creek to spend the night with mother nature.

This first picture shows how excited Lilli was about camping.

This next picture taken exactly five minutes later shows what Lilli really wanted to do.

When it came time to go to bed, it was nice to stay in the trailer. Everyone was asleep fast. About midnight thirty, mother nature called for Shari to come for a visit. Mom and her went for the visit. Shari got back to bed and Lilli woke up and started to cry. She was confused about where she was. An hour later after all of the wild animals migrated out of the 30 mile area, Lilli was still crying. I asked her if she wanted to go home and she kept saying, "home?, home?". So Shari took her home and they spent the night in a nice warm bed. They came up the next morning and had breakfast with us. Lilli actually had fun playing in the dirt and watching the fire, but she didn't care for the sleeping part. I had fun though.

Shopping

On July 12th, Mom took the family to Logan to go birthday shopping for McKenzie. They met up with Breanne so Bre could say goodbye to Lilli and Shari. They ate at Olive Garden, had ice cream at an ice cream place 

(that usually makes sense, ice cream at an ice cream place) and increased the economy in Cache County. It was also a time to get a family picture of all of the sisters and here it is:

If you look really close, you can almost see the similarities between them. They just look like some good looking women to me. Apparently they all had a lot of fun and came away with a lot of stuff. Good thing I stayed home to work to pay the bills.

This last picture is a picture of all of the important women in my life. I couldn't ask the Lord for anything better or any better family. Lilli didn't want to show her face. She told me that there is enough pictures of her on this blog. Thanks to Kennan for taking the picture. Till later.
