Colorado River/Grand Junction, Co. - The last time our entire family went on vacation together was 2006. I have been yearning to go rafting again and I was super sad when I didn't get a chance to do it over the summer...Nie, mark your calendar I am coming soon!
I got to spend time with Jess & Alex. You guys are wonderful. This is us at a concert last year...when 1/5 of my life became complete...you know Jess, you know!
Me and Lana (Aka: Susie and Lani, thanks to Terry) - I love how we can pick up the phone or have lunch and we pick up exactly where we left off...I remember way back when, when our summers were full of In N Out Burgers and staying up all night and laughing about who knows what?!? I know my parents must have thought at one point or another that we were crazy. Look how young we are in this picture (2005) ....Good times. Good times.
Me & Alissa - We go back pretty far...like 1st grade far. I am so proud of you! You are the best 6th grade teacher out there! Now, that you have your own home, you've got to learn how to use a lawn mower.
Ice Cream Cheesecake...note, please do not eat if you are lactose intolerant...Memito!
This is Wally the Worm. He is for my classroom (thanks Kierstin), and Guillermo wanted to try it out. I told him that his fingers were too big for the finger puppet and he was going to scare the children. Isn't Wally cute?
Summers should be full of Rite Aid Ice Cream and chipped bright pink nail polish...okay, not really, but that's my excuse for not going back to get a manicure.
Summers should also be spent eating plenty of corn dogs,hot dogs, iced drinks, etc. at the pier.
But most of all (as Guillermo is demonstrating) Summers should be spent soaking up the sun near the beach or poolside...how do you spend your summers?
