What a great weekend, Happy Birthday to the Holyoak Kids

We spent the week in Gunnison, and Spring City getting firewood for the winter. Thank you Nathan and Tonya for all your help and letting us stay at your house all week long. Friday night we had a family birthday party for Crystal, Nathan, Megan, Lindsay, & Stacy. Then Saturday we headed North to Lagoon. As we were driving the weather just kept getting worse and worse, in my mind I was thinking up things that we could do instead. I called Mom on the cell phone, and she told me that she thought that there would be a cloudless sunny spot over Lagoon. Ha Ha not so, but that is so my Mom always thinking things will work out for the best. So we went to Lagoon, and it was cold and wet, but we had so much fun, I laughed until I cried a bunch. What a perfect birthday present to spend some fun time with my family. I am planning another trip next year so clear your calendars.



This is Tonya, Nathan, Jeremy, Tori, Andrew, and Lindsay on the Cliffhanger. (I don't ride this ride because it makes me scream bad words, and Lagoon is a family place.) I love to watch Jer he runs from ride to ride, and screams like a little kid. At the end of the day he was hoarse from yelling so much.







This is Me, Jeremy, Lindsay, Andrew, and Megan riding the swings. (Gross, I really shouldn't ride this ride.) Jeremy told Andrew to spin around on this ride, and then Andrew got yelled at over the loud speakers. Way to go Jer!




This ride is called Bats, and Parker really enjoyed it. After the we left the park my Mom told me how the ride almost started without Parker bucked in, talk about my stomach dropping. Tori, Tonya, and Levi. Lindsay andy Jer. Megan and Andrew. This ride is another gross one. (It is amazing that I like Lagoon so much when all the rides make me so sick.)


Parker and Michael driving around. This is the craziest ride, it is powered by magnets, and you start out by going straight up four stories, then straight down four stories, but don't worry you only have 4.85 G-forces on you. Then the ride continues on around and spins you upside down. We took Parker on this ride, and thought he was going to lose his lunch, but as soon as he caught his breath he yelled "Can we do that again?!?!", and so we did.

I have to give credit to Levi for all the pictures. Thanks Bro

Sorry this didn't post, and then I sort of fell off the face of the earth for awhile. Here it is in all it's glory.

Oh, what fun! Except you forgot one little detail, you know, the part where you snubbed you good friends who had been planning on seeing you for TWO MONTHS, and how they all cried for days afterwords because they were so dissapointed. Remember, that part? Just kidding, we really did cry, but we understood too:)We will have to catch up with you soon. We also need to come and see you at your new place and visit the very best temple ever.
