Last Day

Whats a trip to upstate New York without whitewater rafting!!!

we rafted with Wild Waters Outfitters and well, it was my faveroite part of

the vacation! We signed up for the all day one so lunch and dinner were included

We lanuched at around 10:30 a.m with all 4 other boats.

The trip started off with gong over the equipment and commands but the fun part

was up next...we paddled our way thorugh class 2&3 rapids and with a couple of "HOLEY COWS!" were off Indian Lake (where we launched from) and into the Hudson.Soon after we ate and because of my brothers SEVERE PEANUT allegry we got to bring a lunch anf epipen for him which were kept in the guides dry bag :) .

After lunch we started hitting the serious rapids which were even more fun then the fisrt ones!

Soon our boat was in fisrt place and we were about 3 miles away from the pickup site...

Thats when we heard a crack of thunder and the first few raindrops hit our noses.

then well,the wind started to blow and the hevans opened up (i knew we shouldnt have been commenting of the lovely weather!)

When we were done we were shivering and shaking as much as a person in a bathing suit could shake but we all warmed up after the bus driver dropped us off

all in all the rafting trip desvers 5 stars because it was just that amazing

Day 2

The second day of Lake George we went tubing with Tubby Tubes company down the Hudson River with about 2 other famlies.It was quite relaxing actually just floating and we even got to stop off and streach out before traveling a little ways down the river to where the bus driver picked us up in "gus the bus" the bus ride went through places you thought a bus could never go...but we were all safe so no worries...all in all a pretty relaxing day down the hudson

but its not over yet!

after that we went to the Nautral Stone Bridges and Caves park....

it was wayyyy up in Pottersville but well worth the trip.Im not going to give away to much but the whole family was impressed!

END OF DAY 2

Day One

Im not going to take you through the 4 hour car ride because youd fall alseep.After our fisrt night at the Windham by Whyndam we went up to the Adirondack Extreme Adventure course.It was great! you get a few lessons in how you clip on your lanyards to the red rope and how to use the carabeener to zip line and then youre off!! there are 5 courses in total 4 courses for ages 12+ (me,mom,dad and one of my brothers who was ten but was allowed ) and one for kids 10 and under (for kids like my littlest brother but even that course was pretty cool) so your going up all clipped into your rope and then it hits you youre up about 50-80 feet climbing on ropes..unstable bridges (they were made like that) rock walls and well some other stuff.Mom and my brother finished 2 wich was impressive and i finished 3 i felt proud because i was some older peoples insparation to keep on going :) and well dear old dad finished all of them. It was a great experince for all and we will be going back when my youngest brother turns 12.

A life lesson

The kitty behind the name i blog by lets meet her shall we..

she lazes around..she meows when she dosent getr her way..i even get the occasinoal bite on the finger

but i love her..shes a beautiful calico cat and well shes amazing,Ive had her for 4 years.

Let me take you back a couple years to a eventful da

Its a sunny augutst day..perfect tempuature when a stary lab moseys his way to our house.We let his have water...we played and well heres where callie comes in.

I was young O.K?forgive me

we thought it would be cool to disprove the myth cats+dogs=hate

yea..umm the plan failed

we took her outside on the proch to meet the dog we named "crunchy"..she didnt think this was a good plan(caution things will get gory) i have her in my arms and well she takes a little trip up my head.Im screamng she ran away and well we all took a trip to the emercncy room...a staple in my head,some ice for my black eye and some glue for my forehead im all good osrt of

we found the cat and to this day..were like 2 peas in a pod

but be warned

CAT+DOG=HATE

this is a life lesson that everyone should be taught at a young age
