Hallaluya for Summer!



Here we are at the dunes. It was so dang fun! I have never seen or been in a rail before, but holy cow it was so FUN! Our hubbys bought one about a year, or so ago and it was so AWESOME! We went with our friends Floyd and Amanda, Jeffrey and Shanna, Aaron and Tracey and we also brought our two oldest. It was really fast and pure adrenalin. I think that was more fun than a roller coaster, except I got to be with the man I love and he was driving!
Just one more thing out of the bazillion since the funeral is that we went white water rafting! We hit four or five class five rapids and let me tell ya I realize without a doubt that I am in fact a mortal being. Nothing helps ya realize that like your raft tacoing in the midst of rapids , in 40 degree water. It was absolute blast! We went with My oldest brother, Eric and his wife and friends from their ward, Ed, Erin and Scott, Mom and Dad, A guy named Kim, and woooowwwweee it is something I can now check off my FAMOUS list of things to do before I die.


Hurray for Stinkin Summer! I can't wait for summer to be here already! We have had so much going on that I have had Zero time to even sleep let alone breath! My kiddos have been itchin for it too because summer means they get to go camping with my older brother, who they think is the Stuff, and family vacation and adult time as well!
This summer is going to be a good one. I think we all need a slow down from all the crazy things that have gone on in the past couple of months. I have to say that life definitely gets out of hand REAL
fast if you are not careful.
Does anyone else want summer so bad?

I totally agree with you! I cannot wait for summer..We've have vacation in June, but other that that WE'RE FREE! And that would be so great to get together. Thursdays or Fridays are the best for me. Just let me know!

I want summer to come and I can't wait for it. 4 more days and then I am free from helping with homework, early bedtimes, routines and so on! Great post Emily and It sounds like your summer has already started!

Hi Emily! It has been too long since I have seen your kids! Lets get all the kids together soon and I'm going to link you to my blog.

I know you don't know me, but I came across your blog about your nephew by chance. I know Sarah from years back in Maricopa (and she dated my husband once too, gasp) and with no way of contacting her, will you just tell her the Mackey's are thinking of her and her family. Thank you so much!

Hey girl! Yes, we will have to plan a Thursday to get together! I have a lot of family stuff going on over the next couple weeks, but I will definitely keep in touch and let you know when things settle down a bit. Talk to you soon!
