excuses, excuses. . .

As on of my teachers says "he who makes excuses, accuses himself" so i am not going to even try to excuse why we have not had a blog entry in so long. But guess what? The Fin Fam is back! We figured we might as well start where we left off, so we can catch everyone up on our life.

when we went to California we (of course) visited Lego land.
There was a new Indiana Jones ride but it wasn't that great, it broke down on us. We were excited though to find these sweet hats and goggles.


Eli and Joel absolutely loved the water park.



This year my dad wanted us to visit the gemological society, it actually ended up being pretty cool. they had a lot of interesting stuff.



We also went to the Polynesian cultural celebration and saw some of the most amazing fire dancers! check it out!

Sky Coaster




Every time I go to Lagoon I say that I will ride the SkyCoaster. Well this time two of my friends and I actually bucked up enough courage and really did it! The launch tower is 153 feet tall and the arch is 173 feet tall. The fliers, up to 3 at a time, are raised up to a height of 143 feet. When they are instructed to do so, one of the fliers pulls the rip cord (that was me!) and then the fliers drop rapidly, reaching speeds up to 80 miles per hour (talk about G-force!) and experiencing sensations similar to hang gliding and skydiving.

Our True Idol



Happy birthday Ethan! You are the real American idol!

homemade




This year for Ethan's birthday Ethan wanted everything to be homemade. Homemade root beer, homemade french fries, homemade ice cream, and best of all homemade hamburgers. The food was delicious and every one seemed to like it, but it was so dang good that we just had to take it very seriously . . .
