Jonah & I had a great time at camp. Some of the highlights are: duct-tape, cardboard boats floating down the creek; pillow fights late at night with about 15 girls; chapel; box hockey; playing in the creek; mini (olympic type) competitions. It was really a lot of fun. I will put pictures from camp on the blog.

Friday night & Saturday

Friday night, I went to my monthly stamping club party. I sure do enjoy those. Not only, do I learn new ideas, but also, get to add to my stamping collection. I love the two cards we made. The food was delicious! There was some imitation crab dip with cream cheese, cheese, onions, and cocktail sauce, as well as, fruit pizza.



Saturday was a busy day at McDonalds. When I got done at 2 p.m., I rented 2 movies at red box. "Air Buddies," I watched already which was cute and heart warming. I am going to watch the new "Casino Royale;" which I am sure will be very good as well. Yes, I am a James Bond fan. I have always liked to watch the spy movies, as well.

Sprint Car Racing

Last night, Jonah & I were invited to the Electric City Speedway in Great Falls, MT. Boy, was it fun. Not only did we watch 2 very good and exciting races, but Dr. Dangerous was there. He got into a car that exploded and was lit on fire. He escaped! It was really exciting! This is a picture of the Electric City Speedway.

You Tube & Camping

I watched many videos on "you tube" today. LOL, I especially like the ones with the animals. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GuMMfgWhm3g this one would win my vote if I got to vote. Next week, my son & I will be going to camp to be counselors. We leave next Monday, and get back that Saturday. We go to Camp Castle Rock, 30 miles South from Bozeman, MT. It is beautiful up there. I have been a counselor for about 18 years there. I enjoy it, a lot! I will miss blogging, but I will blog when I get home. This shot was not taken by me, but it is at the top of Castle Rock Mountain. I should take a picture of it while I am there and post it on my blog. I have been up there, once. That was enough! When we camp there, we have little cabins to stay in, with a short walk to bathrooms. It is not really rough camping! It is fun for the kids and counselors.

Pampered Chef Party

We had so much fun tonight. I had a Pampered Chef Party. Mindy was my consultant and we had the party at her house. She had us make the dessert using a "hand's on" method. It made us see how much easier the products are to use. We made this wonderful dessert, called a Berry Lime Trifle. It was very delicious. This is the trifle bowl, of course we had dessert and not flowers. It was fun to make. The Pampered Chef address is http://www.pamperedchef.com/

Playing Rook every Sunday Night!


Every Sunday night my friends and I get together and play rook. It is so much fun! We laugh a lot, eat food, and play rook. There are 2 free rook games on my blog see the links. Anyway we got together last night, because Sarah, one of my good friends is going back to college this weekend. Here is a picture of her. I am going to miss her, but I am glad she is going to college.

Spent time with Family!




My sister, Angie, brother-in-law, Richard, niece, Sabrina came to Cascade on Monday & Tuesday. They left to go to Lewistown, MT,where they used to live. Here are 2 pictures of my niece, Sabrina. One with her new car, which she won't be able to drive for 2 years. The other picture is her with mud pies that she made with her brother Luis, years ago! LOL! Time goes by too fast. It was great to be with family for a couple of days. I am glad that I got to see my Mom, who lives in Cascade, MT.

More Movies

It seems like since Jonah and I have discovered red box, http://www.redbox.com all we do is watch movies. Yesterday, we watched "Ice Age 2," and "The Sentinel". Today, we watched "Open Season," and "The Illusionist" I have seen "Ice Age 2," as well as "Open Season," before, but they are still good. "The Sentinel" was very good with lots of twists in the plot. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0443632/ I like action packed movies, this one starts slowly after the opening title, then it moves a lot faster.

Thanks Dan & Duffy for your great blog with pictures. Thanks Mindy for your comment. I sure enjoy blogging, and enjoy reading your blogs as well. I have about 6 saved on my favorites.

The 4th of July

The 4th of July was a great time! We had a picnic, listened to a singing group, had Church, and watched the fireworks. Surprisingly, no one got hurt, as we watched them light off their load. It is always fun to get together with people and celebrate our independence.

I was reading blogs from strangers, again. It made me realize how important blogging can be. Everyone blog! LOL

Last Night was a great Night!


Jim, Jonah, and I watched 2 good movies, "Garfield: A tale of 2 kitties," and "Flushed Away." We also watched, "Iron Man," but it was not very good at all. It is always a treat to have Jim join us for the movies. I made 5 cards from my stamping/paper stuff, that I buy from "Close to my Heart." They turned out really cute. I don't know what it is about mailing anything. It seems I have a mental block, when it comes to snail mail. I can address them and never mail them. Sometimes, we don't have stamps or whatever. Sometimes is is just procrastination. Any how, I would like to overcome my mailing block. Mail them to my Mom, Dad, and Sisters.

Wow, Summer is flying by too fast!

A day off of work, some times it is fun just to bum around, when I am not working. If I am not careful though, summer will go by to fast. It will be back at school again. The movie "The Shooter" was full of action.
