We just got home from Lake Tahoe last night. Literally. Today my dad is at work and we are unpacking. Going to Lake Tahoe is a vacation that the Tomlinson family will NEVER forget. We were able to get jet skiis from The Boling family. Our trip would have never been the same without those jet skiis, because pretty much all we did was ride the jet skiis. Also we went down the Truckee River. It was a BLAST!!!!!!! I, Tristini had sooo much fun playing in the river. The unfortunate part was my dad fell in trying to get an oar that had fallen out, and he ended up falling in on the biggest rapid of the river. He was fine, luckily. Another thing we did was drive around the entire lake, NO LIE!!! A fun thing that Tristini collected was the wristbands from the beaches we went too. Tristini ended up collecting 12 wristbands!!!! That is unbelievable!!! Also we caught crawdads on the last day of being there. That was a fun experience... Now we are home unpacking, and back to our regular lives. Good to be home and sad to be home!!!
Our 1st family vacation trip was to Oregon. We visited my grandparents, aunt and uncles, my mom's friend, cousins, and friends. We did many things on this trip, such as horseback riding, going to a museum, shopping for my birthday, having picnics... Something we won't forget was the Hellgate trip. you might be thinking that we're saying a bad word, but really we are only saying the jet boat ride that we went on down the river. We definitely cannot wait until Tristini's birthday in THREE days. Yippeeeee Tristini is going to be a 11 year old.Mommy is having a very hard time believing that Tristini is turning eleven years old. Also she cannot believe that my sister is going to be 13. The big 1-3.
We literally just got back from Oregon. SO FUN!!!!! Seeing family, friends, horses, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc. It was great visiting! And it was SO pretty! Thunderstorms 2 or 3 of the 7 or 8 nights we were there! It was fantastic! Love you all!
Doesn't everyone love birthday parties? Well my birthday is june 21st, and we just did my invites. I am so excited. I hope that everyone can come. We are going to have so much fun. Can't wait to update the pictures of my party. See ya!
Everyone loves losing teeth. You get money, you're getting older, etc. Anyway, we just had Tabitha pull out her last tooth tonite!! Why does she always pick nighttime to pull them out? I HAVE NO IDEA!!!!!! IT DRIVES US NUTS!!!! Anyway, thought we'd update.....
HEY!! WHO'S EXCITED ABOUT SCHOOL ENDING? I KNOW EVERYONE IS, INCLUDING ME. WE ARE SO EXCITED THAT WE HAVE A COUNT DOWN UNTIL SUMMER. HEHE we all have summer plans, don't we? If you are not here are some ideas: Getting a fondue fountain to have chocolate parties, have a beach bash, to tan by the pool is always good, go to the movies... See there are so many things to do over summer... Remember, have an exciting summer, don't think about homework, math, and school... SIT BACK, RELAX, AND ENJOY...
Here are some pics of Tabitha, Jen, Laekin, and Micah. Tabitha got to spend a few days down with Jen and the kids to help out and have fun!! Enjoy the pics!!!!!!
Jeremy and Jen are Tabitha and Tristini's godparents. Laekin (age 2 yrs.) is their oldest and their only daughter and the girls godsister. Tabitha and Tristini LOVE playing with her. Micah (age 3 mnths.) is Jeremy and Jen's youngest and only son. He LOVES to smile and "talk". The girls love to cuddle and hold him. We are all so thankful that we have people like Jen & Jeremy in our lives!!! We love you guys!!!!!
For us, we had an expanded Christmas...It lasted 4-5 days!!! Dad (Guy) worked Christmas day so we opened my parents presents the next day. And the day after that and the day after that!!! The Saturday after Christmas Day, we went to Tristini's and my godmom's mom's house to catch up and exchange gifts...Thank you Mr. and Mrs. McLaren for letting us use your house and as a base and providing food and drinks!!! Seeing Jen, Jeremy, Laekin, and (for the first time...) Micah was an absolute treat! We loved sitting around Micah and watching/ listening to him smile and "talk". Laekin loved her fairy outfit and insisted that she had to put it on "Wite Now!!!" Thanks again for everything Patti, Rick, Jeremy, Jen, Laekin and Micah! Love you!!
