Fun in the Sun

Fun was the game plan for when Austin was here and I think we achieved our goal.

Tuesday we spent at Seven Peaks with Alissa and Emily. Then Ty's cousins Melissa, Michaela, Kristen, and Colton also came! We had a huge group and so much fun riding rides and swimming. We even created a huge tube circle in the wave pool by holding hands and each others tubes. When the waves came on we would looked like an amoeba, everyone floating in and out of the circle- so fun!

After, Alissa and Em came over to out house for dinner. We tried out a new recipe Creamy Alfredo Chicken and it turned out great :) Though we'll mince the onions better next time! We watched Kung-Fu Panda and then played Nertz and Egyptian War. As usual Alissa was the winner- she's a quick one :)

Ty and Austin left about 9 to go play basketball with the ward. There were tons of guys there! On Sunday when Ty introduced him one of the members told everyone to come Tuesday cuz Austin was a 'baller'! hahah and its true he played great :)


Thursday we spent at Lagoon: Tyson, Austin, Colton, and I. We were there from noon to 10! It was great to go on all the new rides and revisit some old ones from my childhood memories! Like the Music Express where Mom and Aunt Cynthia sat me on the wrong side and squished me when I was 6 haha!





Ty and I went on the train (which I can't even remember riding) and saw some cool animals I never knew lived there! Then upon my request we rode the swings! Austin and I share this as our favorite ride!

We saw Ty's mom when we dropped off Colton and Austin. She totally creamed me at a new version of Speed- way fun!

That night I had a huge headache and I was feeling like I was going to throw up. Very reminiscent of my pre-hospital days. I started to sob. I hurt and I was just so tired of being sick, and didn't want to deal with it anymore! I had been doing so well. Ty was an angel, as he always is when I'm sick or sad. He sat with me and talked to me, helping me calm down. I was hyperventilating because my nose was so stuffed I couldn't breathe, couldn't blow my nose, and basically couldn't handle that plus the headache and nausea. After a couple minutes he had us kneel on our bed and offered a prayer. He asked for me to be able to relax, breathe, and sleep comfortably. The next morning I woke up refreshed, feeling much better, and able to breathe through my nose! What a quality guy :) not to mention full of faith :) love him lots :)
