My favorite part of blogs are the pictures-but I've got nothing. Isaac ended up going on the jeep trail thing, they had a good time, and I saw lots of pics, we just don't have any of them yet. This week we're going to Hawaii so...I better have pic's next week :) I think we're both getting pretty excited about that little trip. Lately we've been enjoying ball games on the radio-its great we kind of feel like old timers-we just need a porch swing. Isaac's been building a lot of fence for my Grampa, yesterday I juiced pomegranates and helped my mom bottle apples. Really I don't know much about bottling but...I helped peel and cut the apples and it was fun to hang out with my mom and Grama C. And if Isaac's ever lucky I'll cash in on a few of those bottles of apples and make him a pie. Other than that its been some long days at school trying to get ready for a sub + missing Parent Teacher Conferences, that's a catch 22, so glad to miss them, such a pain to try and contact all those parents. Bout it.

Tonight Isaac is hanging out with his dad and uncles-who are going on some Jeep trail trip, I knew more but I wasn’t so attentive to the details so…whatever. Anyway I’m behind in blog’n so Game on.
Tonight I grabbed a (delicious Café Rio) bite to eat with my best friends Angie and Lindsay, oh it was SO FUN, I think we could have stayed all night and just visited. Good times. And it was so fun to see their kids. SO SO CUTE.
Last week might be a little too long ago for me to remember much but I’m sure that Thursday night we took off. We stopped at the auction and Isaac did the car thing, I don't know much about it. We also met the Turners there so they could sign some papers. I want to set Brittany up with my friend Bo so I started texting him (Brittany wasn't there but I was having a blast and hey, it kept me occupied so game on. PLUS I swear I'm not trying to marry either one of them off -although Matt and Nichole, Hiedi and Jay...my success rate is not bad...just kidding! Anyway all I'm saying is it was fun and we'll have to double with them one of these days) Then we drove up US 95 to the booming metropolis of Beatty NV, traveling's not my thing but whatever we made it, and then kept going 5 miles to Baily Hot Springs where we camped...here's the evidence

too bad the picture of us hauling the tent on top of the car -because we initially set it up in the wrong spot- didn't turn out. (I tried to take it on my phone but it was videoing taping it instead and Isaac might not have been having his most patient moment...) The little white building is where the hot springs are, I was pretty skeptical at first but it was awesome I loved it, and I felt like it was clean and not gross at all. It definitely helped that we got in at 7:00 in the morning and it had been running all night but it was just cool and my skin felt awesome afterward. "Mineral Bath's" they called'm, whatever, it was cool. Then we finished the drive out to Laur and Dale's. It was great to see them, I'm SO GLAD we went, it just so far away that it really is too long in between trips. Isaac drove into Reno Sat. morning to meet with a guy about a potential work deal but I just hung out. It was great! And of course we ate and ate delicious food...its just part of going out to Laur's! Sunday we went to church and headed home. SUCH A LONG DRIVE, UG! But we made it. Monday I didn't have to work so we kind of regrouped, got ready for work a little, Isaac made my seating charts for me-that was cute of him. We went to the temple together in the morning, ate Costco dogs for lunch, ran a few errands, visited with Grama and Grampa Frei, went for a little walk, ate popcorn and listened to the Yankee's get crushed :) on the radio for FHE it was just a good day. Now its back to the grind, but I really had such a great time with my friends tonight, easily the highlight of my day!
Oh and one more thing...potential Hawaii trip...looking like the real deal, we're pretty excited more to come on that though...like when it happens!

So I forgot to Blog yesterday, but I was really excited because it was 10-10-10. That was about the extent of the excitement. School was hectic-more math enhancement. Basketball open gym, we're getting a lot of the younger girls out, that's good. They should help us. Soccer got rained out so I had to do that Sat but it was the last one :) yippee! And they actually won, that was a pleasant change. And it bought them a playoff game, but then I'm ready to have those girls at basketball so ... we'll see.
Isaac went with the YM/YW up to the BYU game (and they actually won) he called me shortly after to check the Utah score, I think just to make sure I knew he was not converting to liking BYU football.
I went to "Wild Wild West Days" in Leads with my mom. Her and her sisters did another craft booth trying to raise money for my cousin who has breast cancer. They did a ton of work but I think it was a success.
It was really stormy, 2 SC kids actually got struck by lightening. I really made me think about that CPR class and stuff and how I could end up having to use that. Scary stuff! The report is that both kids are doing well though-so that's good.
Here are some cool pics of the rainbow after the storm, one out our front window and one out the back. It was too big to get it all in one.

Not the most exciting week, in fact-pretty much nothing to write. We watched conference at my folks house, that was fun.
At school we started this Math Enhancement program at lunch so that we have an intervention that is part of the school day. I recognize the benefits and it is a good thing but it seriously is going to kill me off. It makes the day SO LONG, no breaks, no lunch except what I can shove in my face while they're coming in, and no adult conversation. I pretty much hate it and poor Isaac just gets tired of hearing me complain. His solution is "I'm sure its not part of your contract." But it doesn't really matter. Hopefully it gets better.
