New Camera

I finally gave up on trying to find my camera and bought a new one. It's a Kodak, like my other one which makes the software easy because I don't have to learn another one. I was having fun updating the software and looking through old pictures and I had a ton of pictures that I had totally forgotten about. I uploaded them to my digital picture frame and WOW, talk about walk down memory lane. It was fun.
I finally got pictures of our new dog, Sadie. She's adjusting to life with a new family and life as an inside dog. She is usually pretty good, but she had an accident in the house yesterday while we were gone. We were gone longer than we thought we would be and didn't get home in time to let her out. Otherwise, she's a pretty good dog, and the kids love her to pieces, and that's the main reason we got her anyway.

Family Day Out=Girls day and Boys day

Boyd decided he wanted to go to the motorcycle freestyle show in Salt Lake today, and Mitch really wanted to go too. So us girls thought we should have a day out too. JoLyn wanted to go to the living planet aquarium, so we all drove up, we dropped the boys off at the TRAX station and rode the train into downtown, and the girls took of to see ocean life. Well the aquarium is really cool the first time you go (last summer), but it's not as interesting the second time, so we only spent an hour, then went to the big mall that's just down the street and spent 3 hours looking at everything from the china patterns in Dillards, pretty foofoo dresses at Deb's, wild nail polish at clair's, ice cream by the carousel and finishing off the afternoon with a round of glow in the dark mini golf. Yep you heard me, glow in the dark mini golf. It was actually really fun. JoLyn and I had a fabulous day together. It's days like this that remind me that we need some one on one time with our children and all together as a family out of the house doing something fun. We've been cooped up in the house way too much this winter. Still stressing about my camera, maybe I'll just go buy a new one.
