Summer: the season of the year when young girls (like myself) can experience stampedes, parades, natural tanning, and attempt landing some hot guys.
All right, that may not be what it says in the dictionary, but that's my definition! On Wednesday we got up at 5:30 to get to the Calgary Stampede, just to insure we would get there in time for the free entry on Kids Day. Normally it only takes 1 1/2 hours to get to Calgary, but since everyone (and I do mean everyone, more or less) wanted the free entry, we were in traffic for 2 1/2 hours!!!!!!!! My parents have decided that is the last time we do Kid's Day!!!!
Other than that, we had a lot of fun, going to the Superdogz, the Rodeo X, and then the Bell Pavilion for the rodeo and chuckwagon coverage that airs on TV... hey, did anyone see me? Green tank top, near the back? On Wednesday night? Oh well, I WAS ON TV!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (And this ain't the first time either! I'm famous! Must be my TV looks.... The camera loves me! And no comments about "Canada's Most Wanted", I want my freedom for a few more years!)
We didn't get back til after midnight, which was bad in this situation, cuz we had to get up again at 6 to go to High River, and then when we got back we had friends over til 11, and I haven't recoverd yet, sooooo tired must sleep *yawn*
Anyways, today 3Bumps had their annual parade day, which I think is the best, how many other parades do you know of that throw tons of candy to everyone? I think even my dad got some! Goes to show ya, your never too old for candy-throwing parades!
By the way Paula... I mean 'Jack Sparrow's girlfriend'.... loved the outfit!
Terror #1 was on a float with the U12 soccer team, since they won provincial gold, and will now be heading to the Alberta Cup (Or is it the City Divisionals? Dave seems to think there is no Alberta Cup, weird), so I was in charge of rounding up loot for him, that was cool. (until the lacrosse team went by, there are people that I really don't get along with on the team, and they were all in the parade. If I hear 1 word about me acting like a 10 year old from Micah next year I'm gonna skin him) Kinda surprised that the karate club didn't have a float, would have liked to have been on it, but oh well, maybe next year.
Haven't gotten around to the cute guys yet, although there were a couple of very cute guys at Stampede... they were just a little old for me... maybe in their early 20's.... bummer, but they were cute. The military had brought a bunch of guns and tanks with them for their exhibit this year, Dad was checking out some of them, and he was mentioning that no guy would come on the property if word got out he had one of those, very happy he doesn't!
Only the 15th of July, and I've already gotten some of my summer agenda done. Yay! Now, it's a bummer I can't do camp this year (grr), but I can hang out with Cupgirl and Tina before they leave, hang out with Beca, Becky, and Jordan after they leave, maybe get in time with Jewel, Jenny and Erin, gotta chill with Devon and Tom some.... lol!

Ah, don't fret about the lack of summer camp this year. Two things:
1) we are still so unsure of what is going on this summer work-wise for me, but it was even worse back when it was registration time for CLR. and...
2) I think you'll like it if we can manage a trip to the Dominican Republic or Cancun this winter instead of horsecamp this summer. No guarantees at all you understand, but your Dad and I are merely thinking strongly about a trip South. I'd prefer a trip to Portugal or Spain in the winter, but ...
Just promise me there'll be no scouting for hot 20-something males on a Cancun beach, or you're staying home in the snow and ice.
And I still remember that Stampede breakfast at Southcentre Mall when you were 2 years old and the cameraman and reporter from 2&7 (Global nowdays) asked me if they could video-shoot my beautiful baby. Good genes, kiddo! Good genes.
PS You forgot to mention that we bumped into Venessa and her friend yesterday! How cool was that??! Love that girl, she is such a sweetie!
No scouting for 20yr old Cancun guys?! Aw man, ya spoil my fun!! (kidding, honest!!!) Guess I'll just have to search for hot 15yr olds! (again, kidding!)
The Dominican over CLR? Sounds good to me! Although one of these days we are gonna have to visit Peru and see Tina and her fambly.
Yes, good genes indeed, I think I come from a loooooong line of hot females, guess the genes weren't diluted at all, not even from great-Grandma! Scary...
Yeah, haven't seen her for, um, ever! Gotta start biking over more often, don't see any of them enough!
Yarrrr....that Jack Sparrow. He's all flash and no pan, if ye get my meanin'! I'm twice the pirate he be.
Umm..just a question. What would ye do with said "hot guys" if ye managed to land some? Have ye thought that far in advance yet?
