We finally got on the road again and saw Jen and Brian with another flat tire on their boat. At this point flat tires were amusing. So, we pulled over and helped out. 
We finally made it to our camping site. We set everything up and had dinner with everyone and visited. Since it was hot over there we had to have Jenn's Birthday celebration on Friday when we got there so that the cake wouldn't melt. The plan was to decorate the campsite with streamers and birthday stuff that I bought but because of the flat tire fiasco we arrived at the same time as they did. It was a bummer, but I think she was surprised anyways and had a great birthday. The next morning I woke up with a ton of energy and a big smile on my face so I decided to go for a jog and exercise down by the water. The view was perfect.....I had my iPod music turned up and I was jammin out. It was awesome. We spent most of our day hanging out by the lake on the beach getting tan and relaxing. It was so much fun to go on the boat, play with the kids on the inflatable island, and jet ski. It was my first time going and it was super fun. I went wake boarding but it didn't go so well...I did a face plant and even a few days later I'm still sore and in pain. Oh well, it was really fun. Can't live life without trying at least.
On Sunday night we went to the Grand Coulee Dam and watched the laser show off the side of the dam. It was pretty cool. I've never seen it before and I had no idea how big the dam really was, its huge! Here is a picture of Brad and I with Gracie and Josh too. He He!
We left Monday morning since I had a few things to do at work that day. Brad and I stopped at this amazing fruit stand and bought the yummiest looking nectarines, apples, and pears. It was so nice to get away for the weekend. Now we're back to reality. Good thing we are going on our honeymoon really soon! (I'll post more pictures once I get photos from Brad's camera. These are the photos I took with my big Nikon.)
One night Brad and I had the kids over for a sleepover. Chance and Brad played video games while Jazmin and I watched 17 again and Twilight. 
Afterwards we went to get pedicures. Jazmin had never had one before. It was my obligation as a woman to show her the path of pampering yourself :) The last night they visited Jasmin, Chance and I went to get ice cream.....on the way I decided to teach Jasmin how to park in a vacant parking lot since she has her learners permit. She did a great job driving! It was so cool to help teach her. I miss them already.
My Cousin 
Happy Birthday Babe. I made the cake myself.....it wasn't easy, i put it together with icing since it fell apart. Brad looks scared in this picture....I think he is realizing that he is turning 30 in this picture.

Dance Party in our den.
Marc, Daniel and my birthday boy 
Our first day there we all went to my Aunt Diane's Salon to all get our hair done. It was a lot of fun! Maurice had his first haircut, grandma had her hair colored and styled and so did my Aunt Nancy and Mom :)
My Grandma and my Mom getting their hair did :)

Newfoundland is beautiful.....I was lucky enough to go about 2 years ago and even luckier to go for my huge family reunion! I grew up in Argentia, Newfoundland on the base when my Dad was stationed there. I got to spend a lot of time with my Grandma and Poppy, Aunts and Uncles. My Grandma Snow White's maiden name was Traverse and she was a family of 14 (Listed Below on our family T-shirt that my Aunt Diane had made for the family) In the photo is my Great Grandpa Tom and Great Grandmother Veronica. 
My mom is a family of 10 and 8 out of the 10 were able to come home for the reunion and man was it a party. About 175 people came to my family reunion. It was amazing to see people I haven't seen since I was a kiddo and meet people that I have heard about but never had the chance to meet. My Great Aunt Lizzie and my Great Aunt Anne's crowd was such a fun to be around. We totally hit it off....probably because we are really awesome, but its just a guess. 
My Great Aunt Anne, My Grandma's Boyfriend Clem O'Keefe, My Grandma, and My Great Aunt Lizzie having a great time joking around at Aunt Lizzie's house. I believe she had about 18 people staying at their house. There were people sleeping everywhere including tents outside :)
This is my Great Aunt Anne's daughter Tammy and her partner Wanda. It was so nice to finally meet my cousins and spend time with them. I would list them all but it would take forever....big family and all :) 
Veronica and I saying Cheese while I was watching her at my Aunt Nancy's House on Jerseyside Hill. We were playing with puzzles and watching cartoons. She says the cutest things. 
This is Princess Gillian, she is my Uncle Rodney's oldest. She loves the new Twilight movie and can tell you anything you could ever want to know about it. She is so kind and so helpful with the rest of the cousins. 
This is Lucas my Uncle Rodney's youngest showing us his awesome dance moves. He reminds me so much of my Uncle Rodney when he was younger, he cracks me up. 
This is my cousin Kayla, my Uncle Larry's youngest, my cousin Emily, my Aunt Arlene's oldest, Gillian, and Zachary, my Aunt Arlene's youngest. For the Come Home Year reunion they were holding a scavenger hunt so we decided to represent for the White Family Grandkids and found as many items as we could on the list. In this photo we found a spike to the old railway that came through town. The railway has been gone for about 75 years so we totally lucked out and found them. Kayla found a piece of one, Gillian and Emily found a big nail that was used in the railway and so did Zachary. They have eagle eyes. 
Here we are in front of the old trophy shop that is now a bed and breakfast. The scavenger hunt list made you figure out where the old locations were and take photos in front of them. 
Another one of the scavenger hunt items....Bennett's has been closed for about 20 years but its still standing. 
Luckily we gathered about 9 out of the 20 items on the scavenger hunt list. The items were pretty hard to find. We were the only ones that entered and we won the grand prize of $100. The kids were so happy and I am so happy that we showed Jerseyside and Ferndale how the White Family is awesome!
8 out of 10 of my Grandma's 
Some of the Grandkids, there are sooo many more. 
Having the family Dinner and listening to My Great Aunt Judy tell stories.
The dancing begins....we danced for about 4 hours straight to an awesome band
This is how the night ended....I love how my Aunt Anne always kisses everyone. That's her brother my great Uncle Gory. 
After the reunion was over that night we went to my Aunt Diane and Uncle Peter's house til 2am and laughed ate soup and went to bed. 
I Love my Grandma Snow White soooo much. I'm her favorite.
