Is it fun enough to play all day?

Apparently.

Bananagrams, you have stolen my heart.

Day 107: Check List

I love the lake.

A lake cabin has a feeling of pure happiness. The way it looks, smells, feels, and tastes. Shoot, I totally just lied to you. I have never tasted a lake cabin. And even if I had, i'm sure the taste would not fit this "pure happiness" theme I was going for. I digress...

Tubing is not just an activity. It's a way of life. And Amanda and I are livin' the dreeeeeam. Not only am I a survivor of a severe black eye due to tubing extremes from the summer of 2010, but I am "hardcore parcore" type of tuber. If it doesn't hurt, if it doesn't flip, i you don't have recoveries, if you're not with multiple tubes, if you don't wipeout something fierce... you're not tubing. 

Mad air? Check.

Mad flipping, followed by mad recovery? Check.

Mad skills? Check, check, triple check.

Day 106: Lake Pond Or-Ay

Today Jackson and I take on the lake life.

To join our girlfriend/bestfriend.

I mean, wait...

to join the girl that... no...

to join...

Ugh.

TO JOIN AMANDA, WE'RE GOING TO AMANDA. 

Braaaang it on, lake life.

Day 105: 1.My 2.D 3.A 4.Y

My day in 4 parts (Ya know, like really pretty choir songs...)

Part 1:

Babysitting the Hocking children! Love love, triple love.

Nathan went a little camera crazy...

"Look mad!"

"Tickle her!"

"Look silly!"

"Look weird!"

"Look happy!"

"Look sad!"

LOOK FLIPPIN' ADORABLE!

 Just a few highlights, is all -

Josie: "I can jump higher than a kangaroo!"

Nathan: "...Josie, kangaroos can jump higher than houses."

Casey: "No they can't!"

Nathan: "Technically... yeah they can."

Nathan: "I would say that our new scooter goes 100mph."

Me: "Whoa! That's faster than the freeway!"

Nathan: "Oh, nevermind then..."

Part 2:

Matching tank-tops.
And no, they weren't seven.

With Maria and Austy! Luh dem.

And we saw a great trio! They matched and everything. How cool.

Part 3:

Boyfraan.

He is cool.

I quite enjoy his exsistance.

I also quite enjoy watching Friends.

And the fact that he puts up with me watching it.

And laughing hard at everything, even when it's not funny.

Because I have seen every episode ever made.

And I anticipate what is going to happen.

And it's funny.

So...

I laugh.

You're cool Tommy.

Part 4:

Din Din with Holly, Brian, Taylor, and Riley.

...catch the elephant in the room?

5TH WHEEEEEEL!

Well tonight, on the double date gone wrong, I was fifth wheelin' aaaaand good.

Tom, you couldn't just run home from the lake?!

However, if I had to 5th wheel with anyone, I would chose you folks!

LOVE YOU.

Whatagreat4partday.

Day 104: LOTR 4 LIFE

Lord of the Rings:

you are too good to me.

Sam would be such a good best friend.

Frodo is just annoying. (I mean, I know the ring is a burden, but do you have to be so whiny?)

Merry and Pippin are just too cool!

Gandalf, don't even get me started on how much I love you.

Gollum, do't even get me started on how much I hate you.

That was just a preview of the characters.

I heart LOTR.

For life.

Day 103: Crime for a Dime?

I love "I Survived..."

Maybe that is weird.

But boooooooy, do I love it.

Lots of people who watch creepy shows watch them in broad daylight.

On sunny days.

When you can hear birds chirping.

While drinking lemonade.

Wearing bright colors.

I watch it late at night.

With my front door open.

When everyone is sleeping.

Awww, yeah. 

I heart real life crime shows.

A-get used ta itttt.

Day 102: Winnie the Pooh

Winnie the Pooh. 

Winnie the Pooh.

Chubby little cubby all stuffed with fluff.

He's Winnie the Pooh.

Winnie the Pooh.

Willy nilly silly old bear.

My childhood was Winnie the Pooh.

It sprouted a love for stuffed animals.

A fear of dark wooded areas, and trees with faces.

Sympathy for poor little stuffed animals who lose their "taels".

A warm fuzzy feeling for "Hunny".

And lesson after lesson on how to be a good friend.

Thanks Pooh Bear. 

You're a real gem.

LOVE THE MOVIE.

Who knew a bear could be so precious?
