Weekend Wrap Up!

My weekend was AWESOME. 
Im going to start with Thursday.  Mom and I took my cousins Ashley and Jared to Six Flags.  While they really didnt want to ride roller coasters we still had a great time.  About 5:00 we went and got in line for Thunder River.  As we sat down on the ride they told us we had to get off because it was Lightning.  No  big deal.  Well I wish you could see the rescue operations they did.  It was really cool.  Here are some cool pictures. 





Friday, I was lucky enough to spend the evening with The Roscow's, on their deck, drinking a couple Bud Lights.  Luke even posed for a couple pictures with his car for me:)

So maybe he didnt look at me, but he is soo stinkin cute!
Saturday, I had more plans to spend time with The Roscow's.  Their beer and diaper party was Saturday night.  Sorry I don't have any pictures of this event, but boy was it a blast.  Saturday night I stayed the night on Sarah and Trav's couch! And Sunday morning, I was graced with the presence of these two awesome little boys.
After I headed back to Dupo,  I went to meet my newest Nephew Caleb Follmer with my brother and Lydia.  I really didnt want to go see him yet because I hate hospital, and I mean HATE them.  But hes been here for 4 days and I hadn't met him yet.  But Im glad I went.  St. John's Hospital really wasn't bad.   It didn't have that nasty hospital smell and I really never saw any other patiants then Caleb and his mom Michelle. 
This is Caleb and his cousin Kaylin. 

Caleb was born Thursday July 7, 2011 at 4:20 and was 9lbs 4oz. and 22 inchs long!

Caleb and ME his Aunt Kati!

Caleb and Uncle Toney!


Well, I finished off my weekend with dinner and a motorcycle ride with my daddy Sunday night.  We saw 14 deers this time.  Thats a record. 
Hope you enjoy, and had a great weekend!

Weekend Wrap up!

Yes, my weekend wrap up is VERY late.. but hey! better late then never, right?

I had a super great long weekend!  Friday was my first official unemployed day.  I went to the office to clean out my desk, then journeyed up to the lake:)  Boy did I need that.  Belle and I got to the lake around 10:30.  Bright and early!  If you haven't heard Carlyle Lake is high.  Theres water EVERYWHERE.  Seriously.  Friday we really just hung around the campsite, then went to have dinner at the V. in Carlyle,  MMM fish!  After dinner we headed out for a drive..  Did you know you can drive all the way around Carlyle.  Its many back and countrys roads, but boy is it pretty.  There were times where you could tell the water had flowed over the roads.  And I mean flowed..


This is 3 campsites down from us. 


Jasper Loves swimming!
Saturday, dad and I started our day with a nice motorcylce ride to McDonalds, while Jenny had to come to Belleville.  When Jenny got back we all decided to go for a swim.  We swam about 50 ft from where I took that picture.  Saturday night we watched the fireworks from...
...Here
Sunday, was ah.. Sunday.  Dad's friends Tom and Jerry came up to visit.. Then it stormed.. So we spent all afternoon inside.  I spent that time reading..

Monday morning we packed up and came home.  When I got home I went to lunch with my mom, gma, Aunt Ruth and Uncle Rick.  Then me mom and Gma went over to my Aunt Alice's and went swimming with her and my cousin Ashley.  We went and watched the fireworks in Dupo... Well that wrapped up my weekend.. How was yours?:)

Confession Friday!!!

I confess that I'm currently unemployed.:(

I confess that I'm completely okay with that 'right now.' I needed a little bit of a break, and hopefully I get a call back from a place I applied for which I would love to have a job there. 

I confess that I'm writing these confessions from site 79 in Dam West Campground at Carlyle Lake.  I needed this little weekend get away. 

I confess I'm not looking forward to the sun going down tonight, all the bugs are going to come out of the woodwork.

I confess that the water is high at Carlyle lake.  Look at this!
Thats a campsite.  That circle thing is the fire pit probaby 20 ft. from where the water usually is.
I confess that other than lossing my job yesterday I had a great day celebrating my moms birthday. Shes... 4...21...:) Love you mom!
Happy Birthday Mom!!!!
I confess that I have the strangest dog in the world! Look at her...
Dont mind the Blinds.  She eats those too!
I confess that Niko is a big fat daddy's boy.  Again look at this junk!
Well Thats all for this week!
