New Bikes

Contessa & Collin got new bikes Monday! They were very excited and are doing well on the bigger sizes. We were supposed to be buying Devin a bike, but ended up with bikes for the kids instead. Poor Cameron wanted one so bad! It's kinda funny to watch him try to get on Collin's. Maybe next time we will find something to fit him.

I will post pictures when I find my camera!

Cameron the Star!

Our local paper comes out once a week on Wednesday's. Well, we had a community Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday and one of the reporters for the Ely Times asked if he could take a picture of Cameron. So I said he could, even though Cam had been crying (he had finally figured out what the egg hunt was all about and all the eggs were gone!)

So here is his picture in our paper. My baby is a star!

I'm such a procrastinator!

So I had 10 article to write this week, and then was asked to write 2 reviews for a new client. I did the reviews since I knew the other articles weren't due til Sunday. My new client then asked for 4 articles on Wednesday. So I got 3 of those done when he asked me to write another review.

I procrastinated way too much. It is now Saturday night and I have gotten all but 1 article done for my new client, but I still have 4 more for my original client that are due tomorrow! So what am I doing, blogging and watching tv. AAAHHH! I have issues.

But if I hadn't procrastinated tonight, I wouldn't have seen the tv show I talk about in the next post! So I guess that's good.

Anyway, I am heading back to work right now...now...here I go...I'm going...okay, really I am going to get back to writing my articles...now

Never expected this...

So Devin & I were watching a show on Spike TV tonight. We started watching it because someone Devin knew growing up is supposed to be on the show Joes vs Pros on Thursday. Well, I was quite shocked to see David's best friend on it tonight! I can't believe Trent Madsen was on a game show...and won!

It was pretty shocking, but cool. Doesn't seem like he's changed much since we were growing up! Pretty much like Dave, the same attitude is still there, they are just getting old!

SEAWORLD!

We took a spur of the moment trip to Seaworld this past weekend. We found a hotel online Friday morning and left about 30 minutes later. It was a long drive, but we had a great time. I thought my camera was in my purse, but it wasn't and I have no idea were it is, so we didn't get good pictures. There's only so much a cell phone can do! It was cloudy most of the day, but Amy & Devin took turns going on the shipwreck rapids and getting wet (Devin more than Amy because he advised her to buy a poncho...Thanks honey!). VERY FUN!

Anyway, we were thrilled to feed and touch the dolphins (well, everyone by Collin) as well as the sting rays (again, not Collin!) Our passes are good until the end of the year, so we may have to try and go back again sometime. The kids really enjoyed it. But, we will will stay an extra day or two next time, these turn around trips are hard!

Here is what the kids have to say about Seaworld:
Contessa - I liked it so much! And, all the shows were so cool. It's hard to chose a favorite part because I liked it so so much.

Collin - I liked Seaworld. I really liked the sharks.

Cameron - (As observed by Amy) I loved watching the animals. The shows were cool because the dolphins and whales jumped out of the water and splashed people.

We are hoping other's will want to join us next time so we have even more fun. So if you are interested, let me know and we will start planning another trip!
