Insanity...

So how do we know exactly when we've reached the point of absolute insanity? I'm not exactly sure, but I think I might have reached it last week. The very idea of having another baby is pretty insane for me, but just to really top things off, we went camping for four days, with only about ten days until delivery. But yu know, I'm soooo glad I did it. The only thing that could have made me even more nuts is to sit here all weekend knowing that my whole family was up having a great time without me! It's just one of those events that I look forward to the very most, and it would take something pretty big (even bigger than my belly) to keep me away! I figure that if some family members can drive all the way from California and Colorado to attend, then surely I could deal with a tired body and swollen ankles for a few days!

My sister (Kim) brought marshmallow guns for all of the kids, although some of the adults had their play time with the guns too! The entire camp was covered in mini marshmallows. I don't know if they'll ever come off of our shoes!

Derrick and some of the family even got to take a hike over to Bloomington Lake. I didn't...but I did get to hike up to the beautiful spring (only about a mile). It made my week, really.

And, as always, the food was beyond yummy! Thanks everyone for helping me end this pregnancy feeling great (and very very tired). We all had such a great time, and made even many more great memories!

To my Vegas friends...that white stuff you see in the background...SNOW!!! (in august)

I like to call these 2 pictures...'And then there was one'. The top picture is my sister (nicky), my sister in law (Yuri) and myself a few months ago. I think it was Mother's day. The picture below was taken this past week, still with Nicky and Yuri and I, but also Luci and Brittney (my 2 nieces). Obviously, they've all had babies recently...except for me! I'm the only one left, and I didn't love having this picture taken at all! It was like pouring salt on a wound! But I'm sure in a couple of weeks, I'll join in the laughter.

Tannon got a really nasty mosquito bite near his eye. His whole face swelled up, and still is a bit swollen. Poor kid.
