LET'S HEAR IT FOR MEXICO!!!

Okay...so I hate Rocky Point. I associate it with vomiting and diarrhea. Now that sounds like a great vacation!!!
I would much rather go to San Diego...at least you can drink the water there and go to the ER if you need...

I have managed to talk Flint out of going for several years...but I lost this battle with Flint and so off we went to Mexico.

I have to take back MOST (but not all) of my complaints. We had a really good time. Maybe it was the company we had...Isaac and Jenny (and friends) were a lot of fun. We took my nieces, Lindsey and Shanna. Cooper was in heaven with those two around.

I forgot to take pictures except for the last day that we were there. So here are a few...


Cooper playing at the beach

Our family picture...


This is our trailer. We camped so close to the beach. It was awesome.


Cooper and Flint looking for shells while the tide was out.

Shanna, Lindsey, and I going to look for sand dollars

Shanna with her cute braids

We searched and searched for sand dollars at Cholla Bay. All we found were sand quarters...



This is what Flint looks like after he flipped his 4-wheeeler going about 45 miles per hour. He pretty much totaled his bike. Good thing he has nine lives...too bad he is like number 8!!!


He actually looks a lot worse now, because all the bruising.
Anyway, we had a great time. We are looking forward to going again soon.

San Diego!!!

Our wedding this weekend cancelled so we decided to load up the camper and go to San Diego.

We found an RV park right on the beach at Mission Bay.

This is the beach where we are camped. Flint & Cooper worked hard to spell Cooper's name in the sand. Too bad the tide is going to erase it in a few minutes!!!

It is kind of cold and stormy today, so kite flying was the perfect activity. Cooper's is of course Spiderman and Flint's is an alligator. The ducks and seagulls are not afraid of the people...the people are however afraid of them!!!


This is us at the aquarium in La Jolla...way cool.


Cooper's favorite sea life were the sharks and the octopus! This octopus was huge and ugly.


This was the COOLEST ever. All those brown dots behind Cooper and Flint are seals...about 50 of them!!! (This is the best place to swim with seals, last time we came here Flint and my niece Brittney got in the water and swam with them. It is in La Jolla)

Cooper loved watching the huge waves crash on the rocks.



Cooper and me on the carousel at Seaport Village.
So now ya'll are caught up on our last two days! To bad we have to come home in a few days!!!

A laugh a day...

Funny story of the day
Okay so today Isaac and Jenny are in town and Sam and Sarah were here and we were all eating Sunday dinner. I tell Cooper to say the pledge of Alegience that he learned in Mommy school. So he starts saying it...he says the whole thing word for word (Flint and I were so proud) and ends with...with liberty and justice for all--in the name of Jesus Christ amen!!!! I about died laughing! I'm laughing right now. I love being a Mom. Cooper makes me laugh everyday!

Where's Waldo?

Okay, so I am now the Mia Maids Advisor... there are 22 girls in just Mia Maids!!!Insane!

So last Wednesday night the Teachers and the Mia Maids played--
Where is Waldo at the Walmart? (who ever thinks of this crap?)
Well guess who was Waldo!!! Yep Flint and I!!!
We are such suckers. There were actually five of us that they had to find. It was so halarious...until we got kicked out. So here are some sweet pictures of us.

Such a slacker...

I'm skipping posting about the holidays...they were awesome and so much fun!!! We had a great time with all the Rogers at my parents cabin. Good times!!! New Years was fun with all my nieces and nephews in Sierra Vista. Good food, Good fun!!! Thanks everyone for all the memories.
I'm too lazy to post pictures from Christmas so look at Derrick and Alexys or Sam and Sarahs blog for a ton of great cabin pics, and Kara or Camille's for New Year pics. How's that for passing the buck???

OKAY, so today is Monday and we went to this fun place called Bounce U. It is a place with a ton of blow up bouncy things. I have never laughed so hard in my life. Flint and I were like two little kids. Cooper should have been embarrassed for us! We played non stop for almost two hours!!! I even skipped the elliptical tonight, because it was such a good work out!

Here are some pictures from tonight taken with Flint's camera phone:
