Boom, Boom... Baby! (as said by Megan)

My dad and brother and I went to the shooting range this morning over in Brea. It was way fun. I have shot a gun before but I had never done it in a shooting range. It's a pretty cool set up. You attach your target to these clip things and then move the clips back as far as you want them and then you shoot. We started with an actual target-shaped thing and then changed them to a diagram of a man. Different areas on the body are worth different points. We shot 2 different guns that my dad brought - one was a revolver and I'm not sure what the other one was... it was the kind that the police use. The revolver is so much heavier!! It was pretty cool to finally get the hang of it!

Nanny Diaries

I finally downloaded my pictures to my computer from this summer so far. At the end of May, I moved in with my cousin, Kendi, her husband, Scott, and their 3 kids, Lindsey, 7, Kalli, 5, and Sydney, 2, to nanny for them for a few months. It really was so much fun! We watched movies, played games, went to lunch, had cooking class, went to the aquarium, had a lemonade stand, and did a lot of fun things. We had lots of fun and funny moments and a bunch of cute pictures. Here are a few...

Boredom...

So I really have nothing to write about. I guess that's not true. What I really meant was that I have no new pictures to post. I have been slacking when it comes to taking pictures. But here goes...

So I moved home for the summer and so far have been enjoying it. I miss the beach so much in Utah!! So it's nice to be able to go whenever I want to. It's weird being home tho. I will only be here for 5 weeks or so - that is such an awkward time frame. It's too short to really get involved in anything, like get a job or volunteer for something, but it's too long to just be on vacation. We try to think of things to do, but sometimes it gets redundant. And plus, we are trying to not spend any money. So if you have fun any ideas, let me know!! Or if anyone needs babysitting, I would love to do that too!!

So maybe I really do have nothing to write about cause I can't think of anything else right now. But hopefully something fun will happen that I can write about!!
