iphone Pix... so much fun

OK, I seriously LOVE my new phone...
R said he'd buy me one for when we move down south, cuz my current carrier is not there, its just AT&T...
which was exciting cuz it meant I could get the new iphone
I think the best thing about it is all the pic apps...
Currently LOVING Instagram, Hipstamatic, & Pocketbooth

Here's a few pics since I've got my phone...
this is just after my surgery, R took a pic of me all drugged up... I hate waking up from anesthesia!

 Couldnt move but wanted to use my camera, so took pics of what was around me, haha

 Good waste of time, especially when you're not mobile...

4th of July Family Fun Day!!!

As you all know I'm totally into kids right now... I guess thats all I have to say as to why most of pics from the 4th of July are of cute children.
This is my niece Charlotte!
She's really happy to be with me in this pic, even tho it looks like she's staring at a dog that's about to eat her...
Our Pioneer Peak Ward has a party every year to celebrate the 4th.
It was pretty fun, some things fell through but they still had a fishing pond for the kids, the tug-a-war, LOTS of food, games, etc.

The Chef's Br. Collins & Br. Morris (goofballs)
 Oh look, a BABY!!!
This is the closest baby to me!  Literally, she lives next door!
She's gonna be a hot redhead! And I think she's gonna be completely toned down as Elizabeth & Henry's  sister.
Lydia! Man, I need to get some pics of this girl dont I!
 Speak of the little warrior, here's Henry dressed in his red, white, & blue!
He totally reminded me of  'Terminator' with this headband.
Doesnt the main character in Terminator wear something like this in the end, or am I thinking of something else?
Others said he looked like something else but I cant remember.

 Spence, Yol, Marky & I went frisbee golfing, also known as frolfing according to Spencer.
I just go with it!
 And Yol thought it'd be fun to get a jumping pic...
I dont think she'd ever had one before, cuz when I showed it to her on the camera she started laughing so hard she fell on the ground and couldnt get up, just kept laughing like it was the funniest thing ever!
I have a bunch more pics to post as I got a new iphone 4 and have been having lots of fun with cool camera apps.  Also, I lost my old cell phone with all the numbers on it so you all should text me and give me your #'s again (still have the same #, I had it switched through carriers).  I've been down for a bit since my surgery last week but hopefully will be recovered soon to get my butt in gear and post more often.

Adventures with Dave!!!


 So Dave is our brother... by law, or something like that.  He's been a good friend of mine since before I met R.  Anyways, I dont feel like writing a whole lot so I'm just gonna say that every time I hang out with Dave, its an adventure... meaning things take a turn.  I'm not gonna say for the worse because I know things could go a LOT worse, but you get the point.  We LOVE Dave!!!

We took him out camping, and went the glacier...crossed metal creek in June, I know crazy!



 We had ammo, so naturally we had to shoot it.

 The boys took turns setting up a fun little "lets kill some bad guys" scenario with real cardboard cutouts.
 Great day!  We took turns going through.


 You cant see very well in the pic but we shot the bad guy lots and didnt even hit the hostage.
 Then about a mile or two after crossing the river on our way home, it happened.  Dave thinks he's cursed or something, because even the next day he refused to ride with us to church thinking something would probably happen, so he just followed us all the way there and then all the way home in his car.
Do you see smoke coming out of that red thingy?  I'd love to be able to tell you exactly what it is or what its doing but all I can say is that the thing got warped and ruined the other thing and it destroyed some other thingy which caused the tire (I know that one) to come off.  Luckily we stopped a few yards before the tire actually came off.
So, this is why I asked R to write this trip up... because I have no clue what any of that junk is called.  He said he would, but then the pics have been sitting here on the blog waiting for him and now that's its work time... I'm just gonna write it.  He's busy!


 After a couple failed attempts of fixing stuff  and trying to call out with no service and dying phones we resorted to walking out!
This is up all perky and excited to go walking for miles & miles & miles...
Goodbye poor truck, hopefully nobody finds you and steals your tires or breaks a window and steals all our valuable stuff.
 Can you see the disappointment in his eye as he walks away from his baby??
I'd love to tell you I have more pics of the rest of the adventure... because OH YES, there's much to this story.  We saw many people on our way out who werent very willing to help us out, they preferred to know where the truck was, what was wrong with it, and if we left anybody behind... once they had their curiosity peaked they'd leave us by the wayside.

We finally got picked up 10 miles out by a 3 seater jeep carrying 4 people and a dog.  We sat on the hood and in the tire carrier.  They offered me all kinds of the valley's finest substances... I didnt care... my feet hurt, so I politely said "No, but thanks for asking"

We then got another ride out from a drunk 19 year old who asked R to hold his beer, at that point we were just grateful to get out.  At which point the young man lit up some other substance before getting his beer back.
We were just happy to get back to the parking lot and drive home.
