Horses Horses Horses ...

Zee Meehan Family Heirloom Horse Head Mask ... at Scout Camp.

Posting a day early this week because tomorrow I'll be on a plane heading to Tennessee for Keith and Whitney's wedding (from my tribe on Survivor South Pacific).

 So my point!
I have one thing to say this week: 

 GET THEE A HORSE HEAD MASK PRONTO!

 I'm telling you this is the best $12.00 I have ever spent. (Well, it's actually a tie between the horse head mask and the crib mattress we bought at a yard sale so the kids could mattress surf down the stairs. But that's a whole other post!) So far the horse head has been to Girls Camp and Scout Camp ... which just cracks me up.

 Happy Weekend!


The Polar Plunge at Jr's Scout Camp last week.

Morning ceremonies.

More horsing around. (I know, see why it is so fun--the cliches are endless!)

More Scout Camp.
PS: Girls are there. What the what?

After the Polar Plunge.

Bam and her church youth group at a thrift store last night.

Last Friday we went to an annual Family Day/Field Trip at Dave's work--Adobe.
It was awesome.

Before we left for the Family Day.

At Family Day. (Jr was at camp, so Dave was with a full-female crew!)

The fam at the Adobe Building--which is a phenomenal building. Rock climbing wall, beautiful restaurant, game rooms ....

Lu before the Family Day.

Me at Lu at Adobe.


Is this the coolest water cooler ever? (That's a big spongey cup cover!)


Photo booth time.

Face-painting.

Members of the Olympic ski team. Well, one of the teams.

Zu before Family Day.

Getting their portrait drawn.

"Swimming" with friends.

More friends.


A birthday party for the sisters/women in my local congregation/ward. It was AWESOME. An Olive-Garden "style" dinner. So fun. Someone made these cupcakes after seeing a pin on Pinterest. I'm telling you: Mormons + Pinterest = TROUBLE.

Da party.

My ward family.

The newest member of my friend Marthe's fam.

Dinner.

Oh, and Elder Meehan is doing great--though it sounds like he's had some bike trouble. And bikes are a pretty important part of the Mormon Missionary's daily life. Hopefully it gets repaired soon.












PS: I had this photo booklet made using the photos from my iPhone. There was an app for it. It seemed really neat when I read about it (magazine), so I went for it. I'm totally impressed: 40 photos for $26.00 with shipping.

When The Flu Comes To Town ...

Image
Even Harriet-the-dog threw up this weekend. What the what? Well, if there's anything positive about having the flu, it's having it over a weekend--so you can truly REST from your work/school/etc. Right? Uh, sure. Poor Bam, Dave, Zu and even Harriet-the-dog each caught a weird cold/flu-type thing that had them "down for the count" this weekend. It was awful. I was teasing Dave, but I'm not sure if it's worse to be the one with the flu--or the mom to the ones with the flu. Eeek! (We're talking a lot of laundry and disinfectant. If you're picking up what I'm layin' down.) Hopefully they will be on the mend here soon. And hopefully, the remaining non-flu family members have used enough Purell to keep us germ-free. Crossing my fingers. Hope your weekend was 'smarvelous. ***** PS: Booo. BYU lost this weekend. (Yay if you are a Ute fan--Liz B.) PPS: Not that it's a big deal in the Big Picture, but I did deactivate ...
