Bruce and i went down to Tucson to meet his oldest sister rachel. Come to find out i really like her! We got down there kind of late cuz we were playing with his other sister Liz who came out from utah and her family. I really like them too. Rachels house was the coolest house. I got to sleep on an amazing mattress and poor bruce had to sleep in the computer room on a mattress that was super not comfy! We got up the next moring and drove up mout lemmon. We went all the way to the top then went back down a ways to do a hike. It was like the best trail ever! It was super pretty. There aren't any pictures cuz bruce didn't bring the camera... i stole this one from the internet.
AFter that we went to his sisters store razors edge. Its pretty cute. ITs all punk stuff but i liked it. We hung out and shopped then bruce and went to the mall while his sister attended a class. Her boyfriend jack made us an amazing dinner! (hes a super chef!!) Then we went out for creme bulee and this rich yummy chocolate and berries in cream. It was way good and way fun. Then we went and crammed into his sisters room to watch I am Legend. It was a super fun trip!!!!!!

Goats
Jessica and I went out to Goats Island today. i told her that it was shallow you can walk all the way out. Well it was later in the afternoon and was very choppy. We walked most of the way but had to swim some. We got the island and we both got blisters from our shoes. Then we started walking back and we had to swim back. Half way there we were tired but still swimming. I felt something on my neck and then it started to hurt. I felt my neck and pulled off a blue bubble(aka jelly fish). I freaked out and then i felt my back hurting and pulled off another maybe 2 more blue bubbles. I yelled at jess to keep swimming and swam as hard as i could to get away form that spot. It did not feel good!!! Come to find out we swam way far out of the way. this is the sting on my back. It looks the worst but hardly stung.

Mason Reef Howard
Here's the first picture and i'm sure more will be coming! Yesterday kim wasn't in a good mood cuz she was only at 3. Jessica asked how long it takes to get from a 3 to a 10.... in kims case... less then 24 hours. We got home from our day in town and shopping and talked with everyone on web cam. Kim just sat and looked not so happy. After a super long shower we were all waiting for her to get done so we could watch a movie. Nate came out after talking to her and said they were going to the hospital. they left around 11.. checked in at 11:45 kim pushed out mason at 12:45. They are still in the hospital but everything went well. He was 7lbs 6 oz. I'm so excited!!! I'm glad that i'm here to help kim and nate out! Jessica and I have played with the kids all morning. everything has been going great!!!!

Nate playing with us
Nate was so much fun that day. We played this game for awhile. Before he started this game he was wrestling jessica and putting her in a head lock and jumping on her. He licked her like crazy and even bit her head. It was pretty funny!

Sharks Cove
We went to sharks cove up on north shore today! I had never played there so it was fun to go down
there are a ton of fish that you can just stand and look in the water and see them swimming! we went snorkeling too and it was shallow enough for the kids to play and have fun
the zoom was on when i took this one. look closely and you can see how many freckles i have. its pretty crazy, i didn't think i had that many!
heres the farther away one
kim and lili! aren't they so cute
Nate is Mr. Muscle man!! He was KING OF THE ROCK! =]
This is sharks cove... as jessica always points out.. there aren't any sharks, but its a great snorkel spot and really pretty, next time we will be prepared and bring our watershoes with us
oh course there is one of me with the pretty view

PCC day!
Kim's friend were nice enough to get tickets for me and jess to go to PCC. we had both already been there but its still always a bunch of fun!
When i get old i'm going to be a super rude person. Apparently there is a rule that once you get old you are allowed to be rude to any and everyone. I noticed this at work with all the old farts that come in but i found it to be true at PCC. This old guy comes and stands in everyones way then SITS on top of me for a seat!!!! I was soooo mad!! I sat and waiting for 30mins to get a good seat then he comes and thinks that just because he's old he gets a good spot...on top of me?! i think i not! i don't care how old you are there are still manners! Old people make me angry! i can't wait until i'm old so i can terrorize the younger generations. No one will escape my rudness!!! =]
This is new zealand's village... enough said
jessica with a pretty waterfall. After our village fun we went to the night show. It was a lot of fun. jessica had never been to it. Thanks again shanae and melisa
