Old Times
We had Rick over for dinner he is working in Utah. His family will be moving back to Utah the first of August. Gary and Rick used to karaoke in the little house we used to live in. So tonight they pulled out Rock band to play Gary was singing, Taylor on the drums, Emily on the guitar. Gary kept trying to get Rick to sing. He kept saying he had a headache. They got him to finally sing The Eye of the Tiger. He sang for just a sec and gave Emily the mic. he said I am to shy. We will have to work him back into it. I just think he is getting old and could not see the words they are kinda small. I am going to the dollar store to get him some reading glasses. Valerie and I used to laugh at the jam sessions they would have. We just need to get him in the grove again.

Seven Random things about me!
I was tagged so here I go!
1. I broke my arm in second grade on a trampoline. My friend drove me home on her bike. When they took me to the hospital and they got the x-ray's mixed up with another Amy Reed and was going to take me into surgery. Then they realized the mistake thank heavens. All they had to do was put me to sleep to set the arm. When i got the cast off it smelled so bad I pucked all over the Dr.
2. I love Hawaii. I thought I would hate it because I was so fat. But it was awesome. I dream about it all the time. It was so relaxing.
3. I wrote in my journal in 9th grade that I was going to marry Gary Jackson. When i found out he got married I was going to tear that page out, but I never did. Then guess what we ended up together.
4. I have always wanted to run a 5k. I hope I can get my weight of so I can do that. (now I said it I have to do it.)
5. I love the ocean especially in Hawaii. it is so pretty and you can even see your feet. The water is so clear. I loved snorkeling in the ocean. That was awesome. We seen turtles and all different kinds of fish. ( I usually I am a little nervous in water. But Salt water helps you float)
6. I used to hate to read when I was younger, but know I love it.
7. I wish I could sing. I can't carry a tune but in the next life I am going to be a singer. Taylor always says I should sing in sacrament he said I would bring everyone to tears not from my voice but tears of laughter. It is said when they are young they love to sing with me. until they would go to preschool and realize that mom can't sing and then they no more want to sing with mom.

What is that bad Smell.
On Monday July sixth me and my niece Were heading to Payson. We thought we could smell something in the car,but we checked under the seats I even smelled Garrett shoes to see if it was it could not find anything. So we got on the freeway as we got to Payson there was this smell that was horrible we were both gagging. We were trying not to throw up. We had to drive that car back to Santaquin we did not know how we could drive with that smell. So my niece got out her Victoria Secret lotion and squirted some in our hands so we could set and smell it on the way home. I pulled in the drive way and the front of my suburban was covered in flies. Gary came out to check he opened the hood and the smell was so overwhelming he was trying not to puck.
Well he found the problem the four kittens that we were getting ready to give away were dead in the fan. They were on the porch Sat. night when we got home from the fireworks. My niece spent the night and Gary got up early to run her home so she could get to work. That is when he figured he had got them. Bryce was so sad. He had been praying we could find his kittens. I said your prayer was answered we found them. He got mad and said that is not what I wanted.

Fourth of July Weekend
We had a busy weekend. Friday was my dad's birthday. We got together as a family to celebrate. We had a BBQ and then we did fireworks. We had a lot of fun. Tanner was not feeling to good he had got really sunburned that day I think he was a little dehydrated. He was eating an Ice Cream sandwich and set it on a chair. It was dark and I could not see so I sat on a chair next to Gary well I said I think I just set on something wet. It got a little cold so i reached back and to my surprise I had set on that Ice Cream sandwich. The kids had fun playing with cousins.
On Saturday we went and visited my grandma Clark for awhile the kids played with Lego's and these little wooden doll things that stack into each other that a friend gave her from Russia. The grand kids love them. She let's them play with them. We had a great visit. The kids were excited to get there pickle fix. Nobody can make a pickle like her. My mom and aunts have tried but they can not get them to taste like hers. My kids call her the pickle grandma.
After we left her house we stopped at Macy's to get an Ice cream cone. Taylor told Gary Macy's has the biggest cones. He was not a kidding. Gary ordered him, Taylor, Garrett, Tanner a Cong Cone. It was a 20oz. cup overflowed with Ice cream and a cone on top. They were big. Bryce and Lindsey had a small one.
We then headed to Gary's parents where we had a BBQ and then we headed to the fireworks below the temple. The kids played catch and ran around. Emily, Lindsey and I taught Valerie how to play down by the banks. Gary joined in. Then Emily and I gave everyone a great laugh and tried to get everyone to play ride that pony. I nearly wet myself from laughter good thing it was kind of dark and nobody seen me make a fool of myself, but it was fun.
We had a good weekend. Gary's brother Rick is moving back to Utah we are excited we used to have so much fun with them. We have some very great memories with them. It will be fun to get together with them more.
