WHERE DID 2009 GO??

So I am HORRIBLE at updating my blog :) If you haven't already noticed. I vowed I was at least going to post once a month all summer long and then I never did haha. My computer broke the end of June and then when we got it back up and running I just lost it and never blog. So here I am playing MAJOR catch up. My last blog was the first camping trip of the summer from May and here we are mid January how sad... So here it goes bit by bit I hope you enjoy!!
Here is what we did in June and July.

JUNE

Kurt and I decided since I had a week off work to put our lovely timeshare and flight benefits to good use for a much needed vacation. We went to Maui!! It was so much fun. This was our first real vacation on our own. We always have other people with us like our parents and so we both felt like we have never done anything on our own. Maybe this is the result of us both being the babies in the family... Always someone older to take care of stuff for us :) So it was exciting to just fly off on our own and find our way around the island and rent our own car!! I know we are dorks, but we seriously had a blast. Here are a few photos.



JULY

We had a lot of fun in July. It started off with the always fun 4th. We had a leg war and it was so funny. Lara and Jamie battled, Steven and Mark, Kip and Ethan, and the first timers Sier and Kyle. They weren't quite sure how to do it :)
Kurt and I went to his first concert since he was 10 and my first time to the amazing George Strait. It was so much fun lots of good old cowboys at the show. Kurt loved it and vowed to attend many more concerts. Since it is one of my favorite things to do.

I went to my annual KENNY CHESNEY concert with Emilee and Danni, but then the day before the show Kaitlynn won tickets on the radio so her and Jody joined us. Before the show started some random guy gave Emilee and I "Sand Bar" wrist bands which got us to FRONT STAGE. We almost touched him :) soooo close! It was so much fun and Kaitlynn had a ton of fun for her first concert and Rio Tinto was awesome!!
We also we to Yuba a few times over the summer and I got to take Kaitlynn over the twenty fourth. She was so fun hopefully we can go again this year. I can't wait for summer.
And last but certainly not least our annual family reunion at the Snake River. Which I used to love. Not so much since we tipped over a few years ago. But still a WAY fun camping trip as always!!
