Our Busy But Fun Saturday!

To bad for me, no sleeping in on Saturday. We had a big day ahead of us. To start it off, we had to have Mike down for a dance dress rehearsal for an EMOTION IN MOTION Dance performance. Now those of you who know Mike know how indecisive she can be! Let me back track to the night before. On Friday after we took Sam to a doctors appointment in American Fork, while we were up there we had to go find Mike an outfit for this dance......first the story was "we need to think Michael Jackson Thriller video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AtyJbIOZjS8. Well, then half way through the night she changed her mind and said she needed to look more like the zombies in the video Ramalama Bang Bang video (which was the song they were dancing to). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfR9VJBVPgk. You got to watch this video. The first time I seen it I thought it was the weirdest thing I have ever seen, but the more I watched it the more it grew on me and now I really like the dance. Any way back to the story. So we went looking for more of a prom type dress to shred up, then again she changed her mind and said no we need to look more like the drill team did when they performed this. AHHHHH MIKE! Make up your mind. So then after me getting a little upset saying "WHICH KIND OF DEAD PERSON DO YOU WANT TO BE????" So we ended up finding a cute "GANGSTA SUIT" and shredded it all up. We actually bought it a little to small so we had to cut it and tear it in places she needed to move in her dance. So any way back to Saturday morning....The girl once again can't make up her mind if she needs to be there at 9:30 or 9:45. Now she told me the night before that it was 9:30. So we argued over that till she then started panicking that maybe it was 9:30. So yeah we finally got her down there and guess what.....no one is there...hmmm maybe it is 9:45. Then I ran back home finished getting us all ready. Mom and John came down to watch her, so we all loaded up and went down to the boutique and got our seats. Here are some pics of her dance. I am trying to also load her video on, but our camera cords aren't working right so when I get it working right I will post it.
They did a good job! So, when it was over we walked around the craft show for a min. John left and went golfing. He is trying to get in all the golfing he can before he has knee surgery done on both knees on the 17th. OUCH John! Steph of course no matter where you go thinks she always has to buy something. So she snuck her wallet down and bought her a bow and arrow. (And of course, it is all broke now). So after the craft show, me, mom, Mike and Sam went to Super Saturday at the church. I made Mike go in her dance costume and she felt way out of place and went home. Sam stayed for awhile then when it was time for lunch she ended up going home because there was nothing she could eat because of her treatment and the doctors the day before. No sugar for 25 hours! Now that's hard! But me an mom stayed and had a great time. Here are the things we made.


Sam ended up coming back after she found her something at home to eat. We stayed till about 1:30 then came home. Once we got home I got yelled at by Mike because she couldn't get the snarls out of her hair...I did good!!!! She couldn't even get her hair wet because is was so snarly. Some and mom to combs the her head. Each of us took a side and started working at the snarls. POOR KID! Then we waited for John to get home. Once he got home, it was time to start Kurtis birthday. Mom gave him a new gun...well actually an OLD gun but new to him. It was one of my dads guns he wanted. It was a pistol I think. He was excited to get it. So along with the gun I had mom and John bring his present down from us. And finally I think I did it. I actually got a present he liked! (That doesn't happened very often!). We got him a gun safe. I knew he was excited about it because he immediately put it together. Steph of course was the littler helper at putting it together. She thought too that it was a great place to hang out in. (So did Jack).


After that Steph brought out the Birthday Cake she had made for Kurtis. So some of us had birthday cake before we went out to dinner.



Sam was so glad when 5:30 came around! That was the time that she could start eating anything again. So right at 5:30 we all went out to One Man Band for dinner. We had a great time up there. Sam ate her whole meal! She was hungry! Mom and John wished they would have shared their meals. I had a chef salad that was way healthy......ah that is until I put all that yummy ranch on it. But after our dinner, mom and John decided they better get for home. Me and mom took turns taking these pics. You think I would just use my timer. LOL.

Look at Mike in these photos! She looks like COUSIN IT. I guess it is much better than her snarly hair. It was a busy day but at the same time it was nice to spend a whole day with my family. Thanks everyone and Happy Birthday Kurtis.
