Kara 's swimming pizza party was a blast!!!!! The girls had so much fun and they kept me very entertained. They had loud music, pizza, cheese dip and snow cones. I had about 50 pics of them it was very hard to pick out just a few. Great time summer fun !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know it has been a very long time since I have posted any pics. I need about 12 more hours in my day to get things done. We have been to Branson , MO for a couple of days. We had a great time even if it was in the 100 's . We played laser tag , which we have never done before we really had fun playing. Scott and Jess took a Haunted Tour of downtown Branson, we did some shopping , ate alot of great food, made several stops at Maggie Moo's. We rode go-carts, played games , rode bumber boats and just enjoyed getting away for a couple of days. But also glad to be home. I hope you enjoying looking at some pics from our trip............

This is the Ejection Seat in Branson. Scott and Jess have wanted to do it for years. I have a fit and they don't do it, Well this year they did do it. Kara and I almost had a heartattack. If you have seen people do it you know why. I have a video I am going to try to put on here. The pics do not do the ride justice. Me and Kara was sooo glad when it was over!!!!!!

This is the Ejection Seat in Branson, Scott and Jess have wanted to do it for years and I have a fit and the don't do it ... well , it didn't work this time against mine and Kara's begging they did it anyway. Me and Kara was so glad when it was over. It popped the blood vessels in Scott's eye, I have a pic but it too gross.
