Costa Rica

Well I'm back full force!! My sister called me and told me she saw a blog printed into a book and how cool it was. Last year I tried to print out my blog and it would not work so I gave up on the whole blog thing..


I started doing this so I would have a journal and when I thought it was not going to happen I went back to the normal handwriting journal. I finally printed out my 2008 blog and I love it. YiPEE

My parents surprised us for Christmas with a trip to Costa Rica with all my siblings. We went in July and had the time of our lives. I've never laughed so hard except all the other times I'm with my family . Let me tell you how great it is to have 5 married siblings and 2 sisters; one still in high school and the other who is single at BYU. They had to plug their ears more than half the time. We really do have such a great time together and we have such amazing parents who still enjoy being with all of us. They rented a beautiful ocean front house for the first few days and during that time we played rook, 99 and read lots of books while enjoying the beautiful view!!!

We then went over to Mt. Aernal and went zip lining, white water rafting, souvenir shopping and attempted to see the volcano which was another one of those laughing moments..

4th of July with Campbell's

We had such a wonderful time hanging out with Brian and Heidi's family. Heidi is the best hostess and makes such amazing food. We went to the aquatic center to swim and then to a fire work show.
