Weekend Update:
This weekend was fun because I was able to go camping with the family up at our family ranch. I haven't been up there in a while so it was really nice to unplug and relax. This was a planned trip with my dad's side of the family that we hardly ever see, and they're fun (booze were actually involved! Huzzah!

In attendance: My immediate family, my grandparents, aunt Jo, aunt Vicki and her two grand-kids Lexie and Nick, aunt Val & uncle Dan, cousin Cody with his wife Lindsie and their kids Myah, CJ, and Lily. It was so good getting to know them! (sad that I didn't before)

We also bumped into my cousin Kamille and her daughter Tessah who I haven't seen since Tessah was about Lily's age. It's crazy, she's all grown up and a total heartbreaker! Look at this girl!
Sunday we went for a 3 hour four-wheeler ride that was scary and fun at the same time. Adrenaline rush, and it was a little more advanced than I thought I could handle, but I survived! I did burn myself really bad on my leg from the exhaust and also got so heat sick I had to call in on Monday with a fever and very sick stomach. But it was fun.
