Surgery and Birthday Parties!

So when we were at Bear Lake I started getting really sick. I didn't think anything of it. I just thought it was a stomach ache because the food from dinner was really greasy. So Saturday we went to the beach and played around and then came home and I was still feeling really sick. So I took a nap and Ibprofren. I woke up and went swimming for our ward activity. I stayed in the pool the entire time we were there it made my stomach feel so much better. Around 5:00am I woke up with a fever and so I took some more Ibprofren and fell back to sleep. All day Sunday I stayed in bed and couldn't move. It only felt better to lay on my side. Finally at 10:00pm with much coaxing from friends I went to the hospital. They did an ultrasound, CT scan, and blood work and came to the conclusion that I had appendicitis and had to have emergency surgery at 1:50am to get it out. I was not expecting that at all. It was 6 times bigger then normal, it was dying, super diseased, and getting ready to rupture. Maybe I should have went to the hospital sooner. But at least they caught it in time right?
This last week after I had surgery it was my nieces 2yr old birthday on the 21st. We had an awesome time with her and it was great to see my family. Her birthday theme was toy story and oh how she loves Buzz. Its Buzz Buzz Buzz everything has to be Buzz. It was really funny to hear say Buzz every time she saw his picture. We went to Build-A-Bear and made her a bear with a Buzz outfit on. It was the cutest thing and she got her first bike which was Buzz of course.

The cake I made her Birthday Party.
The Buzz Bear she got and wouldn't let go of.

Bear Lake


We went to bear lake this weekend and Oh Man what an adventure lol. First off we weren't exactly sure how to get there and by the time we got a hold of anyone to tell us how to get there we were almost out of cell range. But we figured it out. It was a busy weekend down there and there was no where to really camp. The place we found was called Ideal Beach. Ha ha what a joke of a name. It was so dirty and lets just say the beach sucked big time. We had a very interesting night to say the least first off 3 girls one tent hmm no idea how to even put it up. But it only took us 10 minutes so we did pretty good. We were getting ready for dinner and these people pulled up and asked us if we had a reservation we said no and they said they had a spot so we said there was one next to us. Little did we know we took their reservation. Oops sorry! Its ok they got us back by the husband snoring as loud as he could ALL NIGHT LONG. To add to that it rained all night and was super muggy. We had a fun night and went to the beach at sunset it was gorgeous.

Today we went to the beach again and it was cold. It was overcast windy and rainy. Not the best weather for a trying to get a tan and relax. Over all it was a fun trip and way too many fun memories to count! To top it all off we got the camping site for FREE! The office was closed when we got there so we figured we would just set up and pay in the morning. So we tried to go pay and the guy was like do you have a reservation and we said no and he just laughed and said well I don't want to do paper work and you were suppose to have a reservation so I'll just give it to you for free just as long as it is just one night! How awesome was that?
