Ear Piercage



My tiniest has been begging for a really long time to get her ears pierced. I took her once, but the lady had a few too many piercings herself, and was a little bit scary to my little. We tried another time, but again, it was a bit too frightening, and she decided at that point to wait until she was as old as Addy (her 15 year old cousin) or married to get them done. Finally, it was just way to much, she HAD to have them pierced. So, I told her this was the last time I was taking her in. I didn't care if she did it or not, but this was it. Ironically, the girl working this time was the scariest of the three (unfortunately, I am WAY too big a cheapskate to go to the cute little girly place to get them pierced. We went for cheap, aaaaand a little scary.). Any-who, I was shocked that she jumped right up and did it, and even more shocked when her older sister did it too. My cute middle girl hasn't really been interested at all, but she did it. The oldest has had hers pierced for a while. So, all is well here, bejeweled ears are the BEST!!!

The Middle Fork is such a cool river. We had such a great trip. For a fabulous recap on the trip, click here.

San Juan



Ok, I've given up entirely on trying to catch up from last summer. It's not going to happen, maybe if I start now, I can stay caught up. Life is so insane lately, I love it. We just spent the best weekend on the San Juan. It was the little girls first multi-day, as our oldest did the Middle Fork with us a few weeks back. I will post photos from that. The weather was beautiful, and of course the river was amazing and the company fabulous. It was a great way for our family to end the river season. My tiniest said the funniest thing as we were visiting Rock House, a Native American Indian ruin on the river. She said "Indians are the smartest people; Indians and Chinese people I mean." She's so cute. What a little thinker. Here are a few photos from the trip.
