Other things we've been up to.

Since I've been sick, it's sort of been a "free for all" here at the Burton's. Obviously...
In September, Elsie jumped off the bed and hit her wrist on the rocker. She had two small fractures in her right wrist. She was sporting a cool brace and a sling.

??? I don't know, I just took the picture...

Who are these un-kept children?

oops, forgot a LPO team


Summer...a few months late(r)

These are some of things we were up to this summer (in no real particular order). The season ended and I didn't' get any Cherry Hill pictures (not like we didn't spend 3 days a week there or anything). Maybe next year.
We went to the aquarium

The Nemo fish were a hit.


Addie touched a string ray.

We went to the lake many times.








We lounged on the couch eating popcorn and watching t.v.



Our weeping pine started dying.
We did fireworks on the 4th of July.

Addie had her ears plugged the whole night.

We went to Lake Powel!
Of course had the 2010 Lake Powell Olympics:
Starting event this year, the water balloon launch

Followed by the ever famous, ever funny two ski

Once your skiier rounded the island, the next team member had to fill the bucket with the super soaker while on the tube.
When the bucket was ful, the next team member had to hula hoop on the arm to the scuba gear
Put on the scuba gear and ring the bell.
The Teams:



Rainbow Bridge
We had a dance party on the boat.




Seriously contemplated the meaning of life.


Did some cliff jumping.

Mike waterskied for the first time.




Did some serious Little Mermaid slip'n sliding in the front yard.
Whew, I feel accomplished now.
