Kings Island & 4th of July


This park was freaking fun had some of the biggest roller coasters. The office had beat their best week as a office and they get incentive money so Drew the manager decide to take us out for a treat a day at Kings Island in Ohio. So fun..... They have a 5 min wooden roller coaster ride and it was called the Beast then the one we are standing in front of is a huge Wooden roller coaster and it is so bumpy it gives you a head ache but it is fun. Then they had a huge coaster called Diamond Back (snake theme) that drops you 215 feet at a 74 degree angle and snakes around 5,282 feet of track and goes 80 miles per hour. It was our favorite ride there we went on it a ton of time. It had a fun water park that no one was at. We had a good fun day together and it was good to not be working.


The 4th of July long over due.... of coarse you know how gay Utah is and every very work over a foot is illegal and so every thing is pretty lame but in Indy they have a fire work shop on every corner that sales everything. So the guys all went in and bought a tone of fireworks and it was one of the best firework shows ever. There is hardly a clear day in Indy ans so of coarse it was raining on the 4th but made it that much better to light fireworks no fires for us....they had Roman candles that you hold on to and it shoots out fireworks so we decide it would be fun to have a Roman candle war and it was me, jess, were the only girls ( go us) then about 8 guys i got hit once on my arm but it usually just bounces off and doesn't burn it just burnt my little arm hairs off. So fun though and then they had huge fireworks that shot up into the sky. It was a super fun 4th

Indy Zoo


So we went to the Indy zoo and it was pretty amazing. Hoogle Zoo is nothing compared to this but its still a fun/good zoo. So we went into the aquarium part and they had this video playing about petting sharks and how to do it. I was so confused why they would have that playing then you walk a little farther and you see this huge group surrounding this pool of water. Well what do you guess where in there sharks.........WHAT.......Crazy you could actually go up and put your hand in and touch these things that could take your hand off (well i don't know if these could bet I bet the would) anyways so i got the guts up to put my hand in and touch one freaking weird if anyone has ever felt a sting ray they feel pretty much the same. It was fun and scary. They had a penguin feeding and a lazy polar bear that didn't want to do anything.


The had a ton of animals there it was so fun. The monkey in the middle of these pic was trying to get out by eating the fence....JK he was just eating something off of the fence. haha silly monkey..... They had baby monkeys that were eating off each other and some that were chasing each other such funny animals to watch


They had a special exhibit with this dragon and a guy to tell you all about it. They have to stay by themselves or they will each other. Babies right after they hatch have to run up trees and live up there till they can defend them selves or the other dragons will eat the babies. they are pretty ugly but neat to learn about


They had this awesome free dolphin show. Alanna and baby James were with us that day and they are so fun. James is a baby everyone would want chill, relaxed, freakin cute, and you just want to squeeze him every time he laughs. Such a fun Zoo

Indy, Home, Cali, Home.......WOW

So.... a lot has happened since my old post & I still have the 4th to blog about. Im super behind. Anyways.... To catch you up to today with out pic We are back in Utah for good till next summer when we leave again for summer sales!!! So it for a while in Indiana they were talking about the extension that was going to happen & where we were going to have to move to. Didn't know when it was going to happen & didn't know where. Finally they picked a place...... Bakersfield, Cali we were all excited & just waiting for the day to come to leave Indy. Well on a Wed. my honey came home at 11 p.m. after working all day & said pack up sweetheart we are leaving for Cali on Friday! I was stoked and couldn't wait to leave. We were going to be out in Cali till the end of Oct. & the boys had a lot of houses to sell. So Thurs. I went to my job out in Indy at the Daycare for the last time, my honey picked me up from work & said "How about we leave tonight?" I said ok lets do it!! went back to apt & got everything packed & ready to go. We hit the road about 7:00 p.m. & had a 22 hr, 1500 miles ahead of us to Utah. We made it back and stayed home for 2 days & then off to Cali we went a 10 hr, 600 miles & we made it to Cali. That Tues.. the boys set off to go sale & came home pretty excited they had found a ton of old APX accounts that they could switch over. So the next day they head off again to go make the big bucks.... Well people either didn't want it anymore, couldn't pass credit, or were just a pain in the rear. What the H-word...... Why cant people just be easy going & see the great deal they could have gotten. Wow sometime people are really dumb. So Chris & I sat down with our manager Drew and decided that it was probably best to just call it a summer & come home & get ready for next year so Sat after Chris went out for his last time for the summer we left Cali (remember we were only there for less then a week) at 3 PM & headed back home to UTAH!!!! We made the 10 hr drive 600 mile trip once again.... So if you add it all up Chris & I spend in 1 week over 42 hr in the car together!! It was fun but boy am I glad to be done! So we are home finally!!!


So a other thing that has happen is Chris & I went in together with Chris's brother & his wife & got ourselves something fun...............a BOAT!!!! Its a '08 Four Winns and its a small one but we got a freaking killer deal. Let's just say Chris's brothers really know how to find those deals!!! So yesterday being our 2nd day home we took her out for a spin & she is running nice she has got a tower on her & seats about 7 or 8. We are planning a Lake Powell trip & boy I cant wait I haven't been there for about 3 years I believe. Man time flies by fast.

To the wives from INDY!!!!!! It was so fun getting to know all of you & I had will cherish all the memories we made. Thanks for everything you ladies are awesome & will always be remembered. I miss you & can't wait to see you next summer!!! Keep in touch.
