Griz Attack!!!

Alright I will get to our Pozega Lake trip in a minute but first. . .
This afternoon we were cleaning around our cabin-Ike went out back to work on the wood pile. I just sent Little man out to help him-he came running back in and said, "quick mom get dad's pistol, there is a bear and he is after Griz (our 6 pound yorkie) so I panicked like usual and scrambled and could not find the pistol-Ike put away in a safe spot (of course) so Little man, calm and collected, said grab dad's bow it is right there!! So we got the bow and ran out! Ike came running back and said-you are not going to believe what had happened-when he was working he heard Griz bark and he looked over and saw Griz facing a bear-so Ike turned to go get something and looked back the the bear was running-across the road-he thought after Griz, but Griz was CHASING THE BEAR- so then he chased after him screaming for him to come back-Griz treed the bear and then left when he couldn't get the bear down!!!!!!-Little man said well I guess we won't have to worry about bears with Griz around-!!!!!!

Okay back to Pozega Lake-first of all I spelled it wrong-thanks to Papa our tour guide and Pozega Lake expert the spelling is correct-love ya Papa!!! The trip was a blast despite the 25 lb pack on my back - and I am not in shape to ride into a mountain lake on a motorbike-the kids were both troopers-they loved finding huckleberries, the ride, fishing, and seeing Papa's cabin where he and his 6 brothers and sister all stayed every summer! They took care of the cabin at Pozega Lake and worked there every summer to earn money-their dad would go out every couple of weeks to buy groceries- I am amazed they all made it throught those summers-but he said they were great times and the memories and stories they had are great. I sat on their toliet and broke it-we barley got a picture before the seat snapped! Our 6 hour venture was a fun one and one that our children will soon not forget-make sure you spend time and learn what your family history was all about, it is worth it!!! Have a great week!

Bloggers Fault

I haven't taken a hiatus on purpose-it is simply due to the fault of blogger-I have tried to post for a couple days and it wouldn't let me upload photos-so I am sorry-
Okay Monday I could not get out of bed-due to this little act of water skiing that I did on Sunday-All went really well-I haven't been water skiing for 20 plus years, and so I can't say that I stayed up for very long-but I went two times this weekend and had a blast. Then came Monday morning, when little man said, Geez mom what is wrong with you-okay I am still sore and it is Wednesday night!!! Better keep running so that I can get into better shape. The other acts are our olympics that we had on the boat-our little loves entertained Ike and I will these stunts off the rope! We had a fun weekend and are heading to Pazigga Lake this weekend! Can't wait
The Dates to Remember Class was really fun-forgot my camera-sorry girls-we had a great time. I am going to be selling the Dates to Remember Kits and I will have 2 left over-so if anyone wants one let me know!
I hope you are having a great week!

Fun Times at CKU

Finally, I am posting pictures from CKU- I am sorry it has taken so long! I was such a great trip. We had fun meeting new people, learning new techniques, laughing a lot, shopping and the list goes on. If any of you out there are wondering if you would enjoy a CKU I would say YES- go for it. I heard they are going to have another one in Provo Utah in August next year!
Later I will post a couple of the projects that we did! I had a lot of fun meeting great scapbookers and meeting people from all over the world!!
We have had so much fun watching the olympics - our kids love it. My little man was watching gymnastics yesterday and his comment was, "Whoa, that girl is WAY Skinner than Mom! I just had to laugh! My lil love likes to say Bejing, over and over again-her favorite part was the opening ceremonies! I love the olympics!
Another tooth out at our house tonight-lil man is only six and I seriously think Ike is going to need to make him a partial so that he has some teeth to eat with. I think he has lost 7 teeth now! It took 2 hours to get this one out and a lot of technique. Lil man is getting smart-he won't let his dad touch them. Finally Ike told him that he had to get it out because if he didn't he would swallow it in his sleep. I have pictures of the little dangling beauty and I will post them later! I hope you are all having a great week. I need to seriously get some beauty sleep! I am sorry if there are any typos! I am tired!
