My family went up to the Judd Ranch for a Labor day campout. Lillie thought she had died and gone to heaven. Literally, the first thing she did was sit down next to the fire pit, take her shoes off, and rub ash up and down her legs...it was like all her dreams had come true! We really had a great time. We hiked, shot skeet, shot some more guns, did some target shooting, I shot a gun that was so big it scared me. That is the honest truth. It isn't a Judd Family Campout until some major amunition supply is diminished. Shane Sargent, your aim is serious, my friend!! Sierra quickly informed me that when she grows up she wants to study bullets, then proceeded to collect as many spent shells as she could get her hands on. (She is currently sleeping with them under her pillow...should I be scared?) Then, because that was so much fun, she and Tyler went out in the trees and collected all the clay pigeons we missed. Good Times!! Another time honored tradition of the Judd Family Campout is the progressive rummy tournament. Miner won by a landslide, I swear that guy cheats...four aces!! I just think my family is so awesome and fun. It was fun to have Erica and Landon and the boys there, too.

Judd Family Campout 2010
My family went up to the Judd Ranch for a Labor day campout. Lillie thought she had died and gone to heaven.

We don't need no education...
Summer 2010, Part 3
Volcano National Park
In July, Miner took me to Hawaii for our 10th Anniversary. I can NOT believe I have been married for 10 years. It just doesn't seem like it has been that long. Then again, I feel like Miner and I have done SO SO MUCH in that 10 years. We just filled it all up. It has been so amazing. Miner is an amazing person. He just has so much energy, and wants to do everything and not miss out on life. I love that about him. I have a tendency to want to just get in a routine, so I am so glad that I have him to get me out there and having fun. We have had so much fun. For all of you out there who have been along for the ride...we love you, and thank you for contributing so much to our lives and our family. We have such great friends and family, and that keeps us keepin' on.
July 31, 2010 was my sweet, sweet Sierra's Number 5 birthday. I would post pics, but I can't find the other camera at the moment (Miner may have taken it with him to the desert). But I have to say, I can't believe my girl is 5. I am getting choked up just thinking about it right now. That girl has my heart. She is my softie. She is my best good hand holding buddy. She loves learning new things. She loves music and "rocks out" in her bedroom all the time. (She totally gets that from me!) Although, she told me she didn't want to take dance lessons this year, because she has to do exactly what the teacher tells her all the time...I guess she prefers her own dance moves. She loves singing songs, she makes up her own lyrics and sings to herself all day long. I can hear her in her room just singing away. She loves hugs, and she gives hugs a lot. She got a camera for her birthday and has made a comprehensive catolog of all the light fixtures, furniture, rugs, and appliances in our house. If our house is ever destroyed by fire we will have no problem with the insurance company, because our house has been thoroughly documented. Also she has taken several pictures of her own feet, Lillie's eyes (extreme close-up), all her stuffed animals in various poses...and then her camera ran out of batteries. It was a great birthday.
Summer 2010
I would love to say that I am a great blogger, but it is hard for me to get around too. So here are some of the things we have been up to this summer...
My Little Lillie turned 2 years old. She is such a cutie and she just knows what she wants. She talks a hundred miles an hour. She has never had any trouble pronouncing words. She talks like she is thirty years old. In fact, today we were looking at a book of baby animals and she was telling me what all the animals were. When we got to the picture of the guinea pig, she said, "OH! Zuzu pet!!" She is so great. I just love her so much. I can't believe she is two already, even though she hardly seems like a baby anymore. She is such a good sleeper, I have never had any trouble with her. She loves, and I mean LOVES dirt, mess, smearing things, climbing on things, splashing, spilling, mud, stuffing, pulling out stuffing, shredding, you name it, she will do it! She is very brave and it scares me to take her to the swimming pool, because she is absolutely unafraid of the water. You just have to love her though, because at the end of the day, that is what makes her so fun.
