Blackfoot News...

I was sitting here this morning eating my breakfast with my niece and reading The Morning News. The newspaper for Blackfoot. When I found the what I was reading so funny, I began choking on my cereal. This is word for word...and yes it is real.

Oh the joy the blackfoot news brings me...

Choose your friends wisely...

I have discovered that in choosing your friends many things come into play. Same interest, sense of humor, and most importantly maturity level. While spending the summers in Idaho I am sometimes away from some of my nearest and dearest friends. With those friends either living in Utah, or Rexburg. This could give me a reason to stay home and mope, but I refuse to be bored all summer, but I am also sick of DRAMA! So I am shedding some people (only 2 reallly) and keeping my checklist. Sometimes this narrows down my list of friends, but its quality not quanity right? I usually don't struggle finding friends that like things I do, or like to laugh...but it is the maturity thing that always gets me. It's not that i'm immature...it's just that everyone that is my age is TOO mature. (haha, right?) So alot of times this leaves me hanging out with people all under the age of 12! I'm tellin ya...the fun is endless!

Yes...adults CAN play in this!

What have I been up to lately?

Having a blast mountain biking down some wicked awesome trails!

Playing with



Watching

And last but not least riding my new toy

1st Annual Morgan Family Kickball Game!

Today was the 1st Annual Morgan Family Kickball Game. Well our own version of kickball. For some reason we thought we needed a bat. But this made it very fun. It took a while for us to get things organized as you can tell. But once we did it was a blast!
Everyone got a chance to play. Even little Cambria.

Unfortunatly I showed no mercy...even for the 3 year olds...it's KICKBALL!

And I don't mean to top my own potatoe...but I hit it over everyone's heads!

This is my "I'm the Shiznit" run.

It was a super fun day, and we all had tons of fun making t-shirts and then playing kickball in them.

Mothers Day

Today we had our Mothers day party. It was so much fun! We had dinner then we started the party by making t-shirts.
This is the back of everyone's shirts. We all put numbers on them because we were all due for the 1st annual Morgan family kickball party later that afternoon.

This is the front of our shirts. This was seriously super fun!

When Jaymee is in charge...

Idaho Entertainment

When you think of Idaho you think of Flashing lights, tons of people, parties every night, and much more right? Well thats exactly what it is...

Okay, so maybe a little more like this...
Now don't get me wrong, there is PLENTY to do here. But from time to time you find yourself on a major boredom streak. Today was one of those days.

To keep myself entertained today I played with Fiona and Elvis. Both proved very entertaining.

Today we realized that Elvis chases a laser light...yes this entertained me ALL day long. At one point I was making him go around in circles and I got him so dizzy when I switched directions he fell flat on his face! I sat in the house for hours making this poor dog chase this laser pointer around, it was HILARIOUS! Needless to say he is now passed out at my feet.

Now to the Fiona entertainment. I know kids come up with some pretty interesting things to say, but I seriously don't know where the kids in my family come up with some of this stuff!

Fiona has been entertained lately by watching The Lord of The Rings cartoons, evidence of this came about yesterday.

Fiona was playing around the house when all the sudden you could hear her little feet run down the hallway. Curious as to what she was doing J.P. went and checked on her. He found her with a little picture of Jesus, and when he tried to see what it was she pulled it away quickly saying "MY HOBBIT!"

Traveling with your Parents...

Traveling with your parents...? Let me give you a couple of pointers.
#1 Make sure your mother has removed ALL pocket knifes from her purse before you reach airport security.
#2 Remind your Dad that he probably shouldn't make immigration jokes in front of a REAL Mexican
#3 Never ride in a van with a woman that looks like Chris Farley...dad's not a good whisperer.
#4Don't take your mom to a restaurant where they only speak spanish and let her be the speaker for the group...poor waiter.
#5 Don't ever piss off an old Mexican grandma in a Toyota Camry...

Thats all I have for Parental traveling right now...but i'm sure there are more to come...

NEW BOYFRIENDS HAIR

HOT PAPA!

MY NEW BOYFRIEND!

I'm starting to wonder if anyone really reads my blog, since my updates are very spread out...so I think I will start posting really random things to see if anyone says anything...

Winter is the BESTEST!

Today was one of the best ski days ever! The weather was perfect the company was stellar, it was all around just a good day. We started the day out with setting up an Easter egg hunt for the little chitlins at snowbasin.








This was hectic, but very fun. We set it up in a little meadow outside the ski school. We set up wooden animals and all sorts of little gadgets for the kids. We also set up another Easter egg hunt up on one of the beginner runs. This was fun, cuz I got to snowboard around to hide the eggs.

After all the egg fun, we thought we would finish off the day with a few runs to practice our sweet jumping skills! This is me going off a cat track, this is my new favorite jump at Snowbasin, mostly because it makes me look good.









Brooke actually got alot higher than it looks in this picture. This was the funnest day! Thanks to Trevor he took some pretty awesome pictures that made us look good!

Big Sky!

This past weekend we went to Big Sky to go skiing, it was soooooo much fun! We spent the weekend in Island Park at my parents condo. This is up at the top of one of the runs with the old volcano in the background. This was seriously one of the best weekends ever!

We lost Jp and Aaron for a while, but they finally showed up to the top and met up with us.
We all took a break and ate some lunch so we could go and ski the rest of the day. We had hot dogs they were soooooo good!
After lunch we all headed up to the top on the tram to ski down the back of the volcano, I'm not going to lie I was pretty scared!
I think Kory was a little more excited than scared!
I'm not exactly sure how Jp was feeling about the whole ordeal, it was seriously one of the scariest mountains I've ever boarded down. Talk about steep! But toooooo much fun!
This is me clear on the top of the volcano! I felt like I was on the top of the world! It was all fun and games till I walked to the edge to see what I would be snowboarding down! We seriously had so much fun! It was the best ski trip EVER!

What a good sport!

This Christmas my dad was the best sport! After opening all of his gifts we wanted him to show them off. His new things included his new one piece long john suite and his new shotgun. My mom and I were so excited about his new longjohns we begged him to wear them...he painfully put them on and wore them all chritmas morning. However, the first chance he had he ran downstairs and put a pair of jeans on over his longjohns. When my Mom and I noticed this we were curious as to why he did that. Then he finally admitted that when he was wearing the longjohns he felt naked! Poor guy, he was a good sport though and wore them for quite some time for us! Your the best Dad!

I have decided that I am one lucky girl! This is the view that I get to see every morning that I drive to work! Who can beat this, really who can?

My good friend Cassie came to visit us down in Utah and take advantage of all this snow we have been getting. This is us up in the gondola! Yay for Cassie coming and being tough and sticking through! Devin and I didn't exactly make the wisest run choice...thanks Cassie for not killing us!
