Wow, What Happened to Summer

Oh Say Can you See......

Where did the summer go?

What happened to my weekly Tuesday updates on this Blog?

Gone are the days.

So, last night at 2 AM, yes, 2 AM! I hear "MMMMMMOooooooooooMMMMMm!"

Huh? DJ must be up. I better make sure he is okay.

Yep, he's up, yep, he's okay.

I lay him down again, since he was standing up and I give him something to drink.

Well, the drink went flying and he yelled "NNNNNNNNooooooooooo!"

Hmm, guess DJ is not okay.

So I take him in the living room in order to avoid waking everyone else.

He's WIDE AWAKE! Wide flippin' awake.

Yep, Peyton showed up within 10 minutes to join the fun.

So yes, I would love to get that time frame from 2AM to 4:30AM back and sleep through it!!

DJ says "Mom", "DA DA", "NO", "Don't", "More", "Ball" and "Duck"

He has the essentials covered I guess.

Chillin at the waterpark with the Tylenol.

DJ got three shots the morning we went to the waterpark.

Tough Guy!

Peyton loved the waterpark.

Emma, Megan, Jo & Kahlan joined us for the day.

We showed the truck down in Rochester at the 4 Wheel Drive Jamboree.

Took home "Best Modified Ford" honors!

A long long long time ago, Cam told me he would marry me if Bigfoot drove us away from the wedding.

So, a long long time ago, I confronted Dan Runte (Bigfoot Driver) and told him I needed his help.

I explained the situation. He understood. But never showed up!

So, to my surprise, at the Jamboree I was standing with Cam at the rules meeting for the show and there stood the man himself. Dan Runte. At the Bigfoot merchandise booth.

So I casually walk over and ask the people in the booth if Bigfoot would be over in our area at all for photo opportunities.
Dan Runte steps in and I look at him and say

"Don't even talk to me, I am mad at you!"

He looked concerned and scared, "Uh oh, what did I do"

Me: "Well, Fifteen Years ago...."

Runte: "Oh no"

Me: "I told you my boyfriend wouldn't marry me unless you drove us away from the church"

Runte: "You were in Dresser, WI weren't you!"

Sidebar: Holy Crap, He Remembers!!

Me: "Yes, and now here I am two kids later (the kids were with me) and I am still not married!"

Runte: "Are you kidding, he really wouldn't marry you??"

Me: "Nah, I got him drunk and tricked him, we are married now"

Everyone is laughing at this point.

Some more random conversation and then we were on our way over with the pull truck to take some pics with Bigfoot!! The Original Bigfoot to top it off!!
