GIRLS WEEK- DAY 4

Day 4

Starts out the same way as day 1
a ride on
the Carousel
Then to the library to "play computers"
Or just hang around the stacks.....
and watch the people
marching to their own drums, they are....
Splash pad....

Jumping contest.......

Sweating without even trying....

Dress up in Bummas shoes....


And the highlight of the week:
Anti-Gravity











Even Rob gets to jump
and flip
And gives unwelcome
sweaty hugs....
This was definitely
Fun
Fun

Fun
Even Avi

gives her smile of approval.....
And since getting her to smile for a camera
is impossible....
She must have been having a great time!

Wave good by to St. George,
as we start the 5 hour journey
to SLC and the beginning of
Cousins Camp.....

GIRLS WEEK- DAY 3

Considering we are in St. George
and the heat factor was only
90 degrees
instead of
110 degrees
We stopped off at a park...
And Cali was the first to discover
 that even at 90 degrees
the slide was tooooooo  hot!
Each tried this spinny thing...

1 group photo
15 minutes later
and
We were sweaty in places we won't mention....
Cali, as you know
hates being hot, dirty, and sweaty!
On the way home the girls decided they wanted
to visit Papa Craig......
They all wanted to talk to him.....
And I think in their own way...
they did.....

Next stop.....
The highlight of Girls week......
THE LITTLE MERMAID!
King of the Sea
Cali was NO way, NO how
going to get close to the King....
Bumma however,
thought he had some pretty nice abs....
The line to get a photo with Ariel and Eric
was about 30 minutes.....
Macie was WIDE awake
and wanted to wait....but
It was midnight
and this coach was turning into a pumpkin...
(wrong fairy tale, but you get the idea)
If picture appears blurry, you might want to see an eye doctor....
(or start a fund for Bumma to take photo lessons....)
Macie was willing to wait as long as it took to see Ariel,
but Cali was falling asleep on her feet...
maybe next time......
So
much
fun!
Briqelle is like having an adult
to help out....
This week would have been
exhausting without her help..
PLEASE let Bumma just take one picture
in front of  The Little Mermaid poster....
This was the one shot....
blurry...
just like we were all feeling at this point...
I
think
they were finally
worn out!
And they slept happily ever after..........

GIRLS WEEK- DAY 2

Day 2

Girls sleep in until
9:00 am
Bumma's internal clock
woke her at
7:30.
This was however
SLEEPING IN!

After lunch
fixed by Briqelle.....
We relaxed the rules of
GIRLS ONLY
and picked up
Brecken
To attend the showing of
Mr. Popper's Penguins
Since Macie had already seen it,
she was very vocal
about "this is a fuuny part!"
and
"ohhh....this part is soooo good!"
followed by
"this part is kind of sad...."
Everyone in the theatre
thanked her for her
running commentary.....
Also,
there was a new record set
for most popcorn spilled.....
EACH one of them spilled a cup
and NO I am NOT exaggerating.
Good thing we had the
unlimited refill package.

Our outings are so
exhilarating that telling you
about our next adventure
might be too much for
you to handle....
Can you say....
P.E.T.C.O.!!!
Parakeets
 
Rats

Snakes
and a Parrott
Could be yours for the amazing
low price of only:
Unfortunately I had to turn that offer down.....
The lines to purchase any of these pets.....
was so long that......
Well, lets just say that
Disney rides have shorter lines.....
BAAAHAAA
snort.

GIRLS WEEK- DAY 1

Girls week begins.....
Cali and Macie see each other
for the first time in 6 months...
What a surprise!
2 moms in 2 different states
pick dresses
EXACTLY
alike.....
without knowing it...
the cousins were delighted! 
Day 1
The new St. George Carousel.....
each ride 50 cents....
minimum 2 rides.....
Are they afraid they won't want a 2nd ride,
or
is making change beyond their capabilities?

What is more fun than sitting
on a horse or
in a carousel seat
in 105 degree heat?

Being the Bumma and watching from the
sidelines......
that's what.
Next stop....
Cooling off at the pool..
On
one 
two 
three 

Just chillin' 

Hear no evil,
Speak no evil,
See no evil,
The best picture of the day
and the flash didn't work....
My body says it's tme to call it a day.....
The kids are still going strong....
Don't they EVER wear out??
Yeah, I know......
They are kind of like having a blender
that you don't have the top for.....
