So while out and about one day my mom, younger brother Michael and I found this huge gummy bear. My mom and I are taking a bite out of him. He was cherry flavored and very delicious. Along with these pictures is a link to a video on youtube. Michael showed me this video and I found it to be very fitting. Hope you enjoy.
My Mom and my little brother Michael had just tried on a bunch of colored contacts so that they could order themselves some colored contacts. Well my Mom brought home some sample pairs and talked my younger sister Michelle and I into letting them put some different colors in our eyes. After seeing how long it took Mom and Mike to put one contact in Michelle's eye I did not want any of that but as you can see they got a different color in each eye. A blue and a green contact. I look strange but cool as the same time. If you were wondering I have blue eyes. My younger sister Michelle has brown eyes. Never again will either of us put a contact or have a second person put a contact in our eye. Good thing I don't need glasses right.
On this delightful Holiday weekend I was asked to work on the opening day of one of the swimming pools her are the Army Post I work at. I was working at the Officers Club. I don't know how the weather was elsewhere but in Virginia it was HOT!!! As you can see in the photo I was burnt to a crisp. Yes, I put sunscreen on about every hour and this still happened. My skin wasn't used to this much sun at one time. What a way to start my summer. You can even see where my whistle laid around my neck on the second photo.
We did it! We are home at last safe and sound. We had a wonderful journey across the United States. We started in Utah and made it to Virginia. Most of all our car made it safe and sound with all the stuff we had piled inside.
This next stop was only for a night. In order to get to Ohio we had to go through 3 other states. We drove through Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana. We spent the night at my sister-in-laws parents house. The Nufer home which was very welcoming. Daddy Nufer made sure that we had a good home cooked meal which was pork chops, a baked potato, corn, applesauce, and strawberry swirl icecream with chocolate sauce. Before we went to bed Mommy Nufer made sure we knew where the bathroom was and set out clean sheets, blankets, pillows, and towels with wash cloths. Michael and I woke up and played around with the putter and golf balls for a bit. We ate some cereal for breakfast then took off for the last leg of our journey to go home.
Well we have made it to Missouri to visit my Mom's side of the family. We got there late Friday night to my Uncle Mike and Aunt Linda's house.

They woke us up at 8 the next morning so we could get ready to go to breakfast with some of our other Aunts and Uncles. At breakfast I had a belgian waffle with a scrambled egg and 3 pieces of bacon with one large glass of chocolate milk. It was Amazing. Michael decided to order a stack of pancakes with scrambled eggs and sausage. We had a fun time visiting with our Aunts and Uncles. Afterwards we went our separate ways to get things done during the day. Then we all met up again later that night to have a BBQ at my Uncle Mike's place. We sat on the patio and enjoyed ourselves. My Uncle Vandy and Aunt Pat joined us for dinner.

Later my Uncle Butch had us play Mille Borne. We played girls against guys. On the practice round the girls beat the pants off the guys but when we played the real game for points the girls were slaughterd. The girls team consisted of Aunt Pat, Butch's Linda, and Myself.

The boys were Uncle Butch, Uncle Vandy and Uncle Mike. Some of our cousins were there as well. Tara and Emily and their boyfriends Ryan and Brett respectively.
So, as many of you know that my little brother Michael and I are driving home this year instead of flying. We started our journey yesterday. We got a really late start but made it to Colorado Springs, Colorado. We headed out of Provo, Utah at 1400 it was only 5 hours off of our original departure time. We both had a ton of things that needed to be packed and it was a miracle that we got everything to fit into my 4 door car. We even had to strap my bike on the back on a rack. My poor little brother had to drive through a long tunnel. Unfortunately I was asleep for it but he got a portion of it recorded.
Everything went well in our driving. We are both safe and our loving our trip. We woke up late today and finally took a shower. We are clean just look at us beaming with cleanliness.
Also Michelle gave me my Christmas present. It is a gumball that takes pennies instead of quarters so I can save more money now.
That is it for now. We will update more tomorrow. My Mom gave me some advice before I left. She said, "Please be safe in your driving but most of all HAVE FUN!!!" Following is a clip of us taking this advice.
