Spencer Camping Trip

So this past weekend Cole and I got the chance to go camping up to Spencer at the Stoddard Creek campground. We took my family and all the fun toys up there too! It was so much fun but it was SOOOO cold!! We went on a ride on Saturday and got rained and hailed on!! It hurt so bad because it was hitting us in the face and we were all soaked. It was fun though! On Sunday we took a ride up to Look Out Point, which was really pretty but also very scary since I'm afraid of heights!! It was a lot of fun though!! Luckily we had warmer weather on Sunday but it was still pretty cold!
Here is a pic i took at the top of Look Out Point.

This is where we had to stop in a tunnel during our ride on
Saturday because it was raining so hard. We all look
like major DORKS!!

Surgery

So Deejay had to have surgery on his knee on Friday!! Poor guy. Awhile back he
was dirt biking in a race at Noise Park and went off a cliff and he broke his
knee cap. It wasn't getting better so he had to have surgery.

They had to remove part of his knee cap that was already unattached
and they had to repair a torn quad muscle too!! Thank goodness
for good doctors!! Get feeling better Deejay!!

Dirtbikin Fun

Okay so a few weeks ago my family (Dad, Deejay and Cole along with some cousins) decided to be in the team race out at Noise Park. The rules were that you could have 3 riders on a team and to qualify each rider had to complete at least 3 laps. Sound easy? I don't think so. Not only were the boys riding in 100 degree weather, the race lasted for 5 HOURS, the laps were each 9 miles long, and in the middle of a desert!!! Yikes! So my brother started the race for their team and about a quarter into the first lap my brother broke 2 master links off of his chain and Coleman and to leave and finish the lap for him. Bikes were breaking down left and right and a lot of riders were getting hurt, including Coleman. He was going about 40 miles an hour when he wrecked and his bike landing right on top of him, dislocating his wrist and really tearing up his whole left side of his body. So now he gets to have a bulky brace on until it starts feeling better!! My dad has always said, " If you aren't crashin, you aren't riding hard enough." That may not be the best motto but i think Coleman was riding pretty hard!! Nice job babe!!

Smith Family Reunion




Every two years my Grandma's family has a family reunion and it is a blast!! Its almost always at Heise. Anyways so me and cole packed up our new little camper and went to camp for 3 days with my crazy family!! We had so much fun. We sung kareoke and swam at the pool and had a pot luck and even got a chance to go riding a little bit before my awesome four wheeler broke down!! It was so much fun though, i forgot how much i love camping! Our camper was awesome and we had my brother, sister and mom sleep in there with us too. And everything but the fridge works! We had hot water and everything it rocked!! It was always really nice to see all of the distant family again and i really look forward to the next reunion in a couple of years!!

Phillip Wilson and my first time Golfing

So last year Phillip Wilson came to AKA and he was able to come back this year too! For most of you who don't know who Phillip is he is one of the best hair dressers in the WORLD. He is ranked right next to Vidal Sassoon. It was so awesome that he was able to come and that i was able to go see him even though i don't go to that school anymore! Phillip created the alternative or free form style of cutting and it is absolutely amazing to watch him work!!


I was even lucky enough to sit by by very very good friend Challis :)


So Saturday Coleman went golfing all morning and then called me that afternoon and told me that he was taking me golfing that night. I was not happy with the idea and fought it but obviously i didn't win my battle! We went with our very awesome friends Kaleb and Adrianne Buck!! They are so fun to hang out with. It was Adrianne's first time golfing in awhile so i didn't feel too bad. I did pretty well though and we had quite a bit of fun besides being eaten alive by mosquitos!!


My cute little husband! I'm not going to lie it was kind of fun letting him teach me how to do something that he loves so much!! Thanks Cole!!

Our New Purchase



So some of our relatives found this trailer that they thought they might buy but when they told us they weren't interested we decided to look at it just for fun. I went and saw it first and I'm not going to lie i thought it would be a fun project. It was a super good deal and i told Coleman we couldn't pass it up. It is older but its in really good condition. The curtains need replaced and the cushions need covered because they are like 70's flower power! Ha. My grandpa called it GROOVY! ha ha. Anyways we are pretty excited about it and excited to go camping and not have to sleep in a tent. That will definitely be nice! Thanks again Coleman, you really are the best husband EVER!!

My State Board Test

So i left for Boise last Sunday with my grandma, mom, and brother to go take my test on Monday. I was SO nervous i couldn't even handle myself! I felt like i was a complete mess during the whole test and was sure that i didn't pass. What makes everything even worse is that they don't tell you if you passed or failed for a full week!! I have been sick about whether or not i passed and its just been eating at me all week. So today when i got on to see if the results were posted yet and i saw that they were i got sick to my stomach. And then just to make the suspense all that much worse my computer kicked me off the Internet about 3 times so it took me forever to see if i passed or not... but I DID I PASSED MY TEST! So i am officially a cosmetologist!! I finished my 2000 hours at school the day after i took my test! I'm all graduated and it feels amazing. Its awesome to know that i have accomplished this huge goal all by myself! I did it. And every minute and all of the hard work i put in was so worth it. So now my plan is to start working as a stylist at Trade Secret which is in the mall starting July 1st. Thanks for all of the help and support everyone has given me this past year!! I appreciate it so much.
