Beginning of summer

All this photos are mixed up a bit, but I thought I'd put a few on while I had a little time...I've had a great time with my cousins where I'm staying, convention, volleyball, dinners, indoor surfing (a blast, but I'm realllly sore) etc. Going to Mt. Ranch 2 today and really looking forward to that!

Some of the pictures are out of order, but I want to post a few before we left.

- yesterday evening was graduation for Charter

- Was also sarah's graduation/birthday get together

- today was the last day of school - everyone went to the beach and we had a bbq

- We leave TOMORROW morning for our trip

- Two weeks from today I get to see Austin!

- tomorrow evening Nicole and I are going to Mt. Ranch 1

- Next week Nicole plus Joe&Shana and the kids and me are going to Mt. Ranch 2

- then going to Bend were Austin is coming

- then off to Seattle!

I'm really excited to go, but I feel like I have a million things to do between now and tomorrow morning...probably more important things than updating my blog, but I wanted to do that before we left! Hopefully I'll be able to do a little bit of updating between now and the end of summer...BUT if I don't get to do a special post for Anna and Dereks Birthdays next month: HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Crystal cliffs

Crystal cliffs!

The one above is called ' suicide' and some guy was crazy enough to jump off of it...people have died jumping off that one...no thanks

Diving off of 50 feet =0

And back flips!!!

And more back flips!

This guy ran and jumped from one edge to another and did this flip thing

Today Daniel and I met up with a friend from school to go to a place called Crystal cliffs on the lake...It's basically cliffs people jump off of...Cross is app. 20 feet, platform 50 feet and suicide I don't even know...it is HUGE! Anyways lots of people go out there to jump off them...it was insane all the flips and tricks the guys did off these humongous cliffs...I wouldn't even jump right side up - it's scary enough to just peer over the edge...maybe one day - still have bad feelings since the last bridge jumping incident. Today it was absolutely gorgeous out - 104 degrees and the water felt incredibly refreshing and wonderful!

Theres a new baby boy!

Aaron Joseph Conrad Timmann...a couple hours old - so amazing!

Glen and Nadia - so sweet =)

Aidan was SO excited to meet 'his baby'...he was very careful to be really gentle around the baby and not do anything wrong =)

napping!

bath time

Glen and Claudia had there third little baby, Aaron, so the two kids stayed with us for a couple nights while they were at the hospital...so fun to have them and really happy for the family...don't know where in the world the kids get their energy from though, ha!

My sweet boy =)

I was completely estatic the other day to receive an incredibly sweet package from Austin...in it was this dress, among other things. I felt so special and lucky! I still do and am thankful I have such a wonderful guy that is great in so many ways!

Lake Havasu

Down by the London Bridge

Enjoying the sun and water!

Brytney getting her picture taken and the story behind it.
Brytney and I were walking along the channel when a guy approached us (fancy clothes, sunglasses and a pimp hat) and gave us papers and asked if we would like to be extras in the Pirahna movie (movie being filmed down here - lots of hype about it)...so we went to this place filled out some information, they took pictures of us and we went on our not thinking anything would come of it...NOT - yesterday a guy called and said they needed me (and Brytney) to come in for wardrobe fittings and information and stuff...haha,we'll see what happens.

The other weekend Brytney (we work together) and I spent some time together and went out on the Island and walked along the channel and on the beach....ahhhhh, it was so nice!
