Coon Reunion...Service Project!!

Thank You to my AMAZING Coon family!!! This year was the Coon reunion & the Theme was 'Service'. They all gathered together & fixed up mom's house! What a great family!!! As you can see my mom's house was in need of some work. While mom was in the hospital The boys put a new roof on her house. It was a lot of hard work & they are amazing men!! After they finished that the WHOLE family painted the outside of the house!! They are all so great & as Brenda's daughter I am so thankful!! =)

(I stole the pictures from my Aunt Jill....I had already left for home & forgot to take pictures..oops!! So thanks Jill!!)

With all the craze on the roof this was the ONLY casualty!!! Someone went through the roof....oops!!! But it is all better & now we have Something funny to add to the slide show at the next reunion!!! =)

4th of July...

One of the ONLY things that I have to say about the 4th of July here is 'CRAZY'!!! I mean complete MADNESS!!! There are very little restrictions on fireworks here in Nebraska. So needless to say it was like World War III!!! We had so much fun!! We met at a friends house for a BBQ & then Fireworks. It was AWESOME!!

This is my friend Jen's son Garrett. He had this princess Boa on & I HAD to take a picture of it before he took it off!! Too funny!!

This is Jen!! She is AWESOME!! She will probably KILL me for posting this picture but I HAD to!! She is AWESOME!!! =)

The group...

Notice all the fuzzy dots on this picture...well that is all the ASH from all the fireworks!!! I am telling you it was AWESOME!!!

Grandma Donna's Visit...

Grandma Donna cam for a week & a 1/2 visit to Nebraska!! The girls had so much fun. I was very blessed to be able to go home to Utah for a week & Donna stayed with my kids. That was great! I don't know the order of the pictures since I wasn't here but Donna was really good at keeping the girls entertained with lots of crafts, a spa day & she bought them a Buzz light year slip'n slide!! She was great at taking lots of pictures too.

This is at the park right by our house.

FIRE WORKS!!!! Nebraska is AWESOME!!!! There are very little restrictions on fireworks!! The 4th of July was like World War 3!!! Bryan was in HEAVEN!!!

Spa Day!!

The girls had so much fun with their Grandma & were VERY sad to see her go!! Once Donna thanks for all the great memories & the time with my family in Utah!!

Utah Trip...

I was so blessed to be able to go to Utah & spend a whole week alone with my family. No KIDS!!! My mother-in-law spent the whole week in Nebraska with my kids.

As soon as I got there the FUN began.

LAGOON!.......

Anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE roller coasters!! They can't go high enough or fast enough for me!! =) Natalie, my mom & my cousin Curtis & I all went, it was a ton of fun!! I am pretty sure that Curtis now thinks we are ALL NUTS though...especially me!!!

Here we are on the Farris wheel....one of the ONLY rides I hate!!! ONLY because it goes in circles & that makes me sick!!

Natalie was EVIL & kept spinning it!!

Natty & I before the ROCKET!!!!

My mom's FAVORITE ride....Rattle Snake Rapids. I was the ONLY one not too THRILLED about getting wet & who got SOAKED? ME!!!! =)

Waiting in line for my FAVORITE ride.....WICKED!!!! It is AWESOME!!!! I could ride this one ALL day!!!!

Natty & I ROCKING out in the back of my mom's car on our way to Lagoon.

Sunday my mom had a BBQ with all our family up in Utah at her house. It was great to see everyone. Curtis was AWESOME he cleaned up after everyone. He even had on Natty's apron! It was so funny!

Shara & Todd & Mickah just moved to Utah. (look at Todd's face...what a DORK!!)

I had so much fun in Utah!! It really made me miss my family!!!
