Happy fourth of July, hope everyone had a fun and safe holiday! Our holiday started on Friday the 1st. We headed out of town as soon as I was able to finish with work (5:30pm, what the heck did I agree to ahhh this is year end and there was, is and will be a million things to do at work for the next month...ok year). Well Rick talked me into taking off all four days. We headed down to Shasta lake to meet up with the family. I am so happy we did! It was great, what an experience to hang out with Ricks amazing family. We had such a good time. The Loverin Family rented out practically the whole camp site. There were cousins, Aunts, Uncles, Grandpa's, Grandma's, sisters brothers and of course Porter. :) I got a little bit too confident with my wake boarding abilities and decided to try going as big (jumping the wake) as I could and did...but I should have thought about my landing abilities because well I don't have any. I forgot to let go of the rope while my body slammed into the water (after being air-born and doing a 360 or 2, I don't exactly remember and this is what I was told). Needless to say I dislocated my shoulder and received a rushed ride the ER 45 minutes away. Thank god it's a quick recovery and I am back to running as of tomorrow. We had a great trip, even with my busted arm. After Shasta we headed to Applegate reservoir. It was really nice to spend this time with Grandma Jeanne and Grandpa Fred. It was just relaxing...except for the black bear that went swimming next to our camp the night Rick and I decided to sleep without a tent under the stars with Addie. So funny to hear the bear splash around in the water and let out a sigh that transposed species and communicated a happiness to be in a cool pool, ahhh - had this bear had a pepsi in hand it would have been the next best super bowl commercial. I on the other hand had to change my underwear - I was scared **itless. Enjoy the pics and cheers to Bears and cold water - :)
