MEP 2010

I am just getting these posted. If all goes according to plan I will be back later to put some details and captions.

Our trip up to MEP.

This year MEP was in the Palisades. In Idaho, near the Wyoming border. I think it was near Alpine Utah. The place was so great and beautiful.

Here is a recap of our trip up. We left wed at noon and drove all day and into the night till we reached Aunt Dories house.


Mom and I drove my truck up and followed behind Tyson and his family.
no trip to mep is compelete without Jerky. This is the best energy drink known to man.

We stopped for lunch in Kanab and went to a park. It was great! the best grass and fun stuff for the kids to play on.

Thursday we woke up and Aunt Dorie made us breakfast. She is ALWAYS so sweet! Thank you for letting us crash on you!! (and thanks for gifts wink wink.)

Here we are in some town in Wyoming buying all our groceries. Isn't Jensen a.d.o.r.a.b.l.e.

Mom bought a box of fatboys and we were all going to have one. Well Kim didn't want and the kids couldn't have the sugar. Tyson and one and mom and I had to take care of the rest. lol. they were melting. the ox was in the myer. what diet???

Needles California Jetski Trip

Well it was FINALLY time for our jetski trip to Needles California. I had never been so I didn't know what to expect and that made me really anxious. so I packed EVERYTHING. It's a disease. BUT it's a good thing I did. Lots of people needed lots of different things and 98% of the time I had what they needed. We rented a little cabin for 75 a night and stayed 3 nights. 12 of us went and we had a great time and made new friends.

Mern and Jenalee on our way.

There is ACTUAL sand.

Here is my first accident with the ski.... oops.

Good thing Jayrod knows how to fix big oops like this.

This is where we would eat our food.

We hung out at the beach all day and all night. It was cooler by the water. Needles is probably the hottest place in Arizona.

We played catch phrase A LOT.
