Costco Shopper, you should be ashamed!!
I just hate it so much when this happens! Come on people, you really can't put the turkey back in the refrigerated section. What a waste. I have to admit that I am guilty of not returning items to where they are supposed to be if I decide I don't want it later. I would never do this though. I will at least return it to the refrigerated section so it doesn't have to be thrown out. Some people!

Sam's Birthday Fun
Sam's birthday was last Thursday. Let me tell you this, it was way better than last year's birthday. I made Sam a Texas sheet cake which he loves. I always have the hardest time thinking of what to buy him. He just tells me that he doesn't want anything and to just get him a nerf basketball and hoop to hook on the door. He tells me that every year. I ended up giving in and getting it for him and it is really his most favorite present I have ever gotten him. He absolutely loves it and plays it every day. Who knew that I just needed to think what I would buy for my 4 year old nephew and he would be happy. It is fun to see how much he really does love it though. 
We then went to Fuddruckers for dinner for his birthday burger. The fun didn't last too long or should I say the burger. The food made him sick and he had to stop on the way out of the parking lot and throw up in the bushes (maybe a little too much info). He felt a lot better after that and just went back to playing with his nerf basketball. 
He told me that I am going to regret getting it for him, I am thinking maybe I will. I am just glad he actually liked a gift that I got him this year and it was only $5, you can't beat that. We also went to Vermont for his birthday but we will post about that later.Thursday, September 3, 2009
Whale Watching
While my parents were in town My mom, dad, Kelly, Zack, Sam & I went whale watching. My sister, Kelly heard of this place called 7 Seas Whale Watch out of Gloucester, MA so we gave it a try. It really was one of the coolest things that I have ever done. We went out on a yacht looking boat and were out in the water for about 5 hours. We ended up seeing about 12 whales (humpback, finback & minke). We mainly followed this little family of humpback whales.
Matching, matching green squared.
This is my mom posing inside where we hung out while we were riding out to the "whale hotspots". It was fun to have the tables so we just played a few rounds of Idiot (card game) while we were waiting.

Zack got to come with us mostly so he wouldn't be a home to bug his sisters. It was fun to have him there.
Here the whale was waving to us and putting a little show. It was so funny.
Here are the 3 whales that we followed a lot of the time. I just loved to see their tails. It was such a perfect day to go.

Family Overload!!
The past couple months have been jam packed with family. It was so much fun. It all started back the end of June, yep you heard me right, the end of JUNE! My parents came out to visit for 1 1/2 weeks and then the day they left my brother, Paul and his fam came for a 1 1/2 and then the day after they left, I flew out to Utah and just got back 2 weeks ago! Wow that is some extra extra family time.
Here are just a few highlights from the last couple of months of family fun.
At the USS Constitution, they had a museum with a lot of fun interactive things that the kids could do. This is Sadie and Spencer.
Yes, this is the only other picture I took on our Freedom Trail walk of Boston. I am really bad at remembering to take pictures. This is the robot girl. She would just stand still and then move like a robot if you gave her a tip. A little creepy but well worth the picture!
Sand Sculpturing at Revere Beach
Brooke and Sadie came and slept over so we headed over to see the sand sculpturing at Revere Beach. It was so amazing to see the detail of the projects. We only saw the finished products. I wish we would have been there while they were working on them.
East Canyon
We went to East Canyon with the family for a week. It was fun to hang out. I only got a few pictures of some of the little kids while we were watching some movies. I think they are pretty cute!
Bowling & Arbys Tradition
Sam and I have an ongoing tradition with the 3 oldest nieces and nephew (Sadie, Brooke & Christopher) to go bowling and then to Arby's after. We do this every time Sam and I are in town. Brooke was actually able to join us this time since she was visiting from New Hampshire. Oh it is hard to believe that 2 years ago we drove across the country with these 3!
Mini Golf
For one of Brooke's last nights in town we hit the mini golf course.
Seussical, The Musical
I heard on the radio that Seussical was going to be performed at the Sandy amphitheater. I just had to go! It is based on the Dr Seuss books (mostly about Horton). I absolutely love the music. I did see my nephew, Josh in the production of it at his school but I wanted to see it again. It was so worth it even though it was like 45-50 degrees outside! It was fun to go with Cami, Juan, Heather, Sami, Griff, Adrian and Hayley. If you ever get the chance to see it you must and you can invite me to go also.

Hooray!
