Labour-day-weekend


Sunday

2nd of september we packed all our things to go to "the lake" (Don't know the actual namne of it, but everyone else calls it "the lake") to camp over labour-day-weekend. We brought Shaylee's jetski, and when we got there we picked up Bryan's boat. People attending this nice trip were: Me (duh), Nikki (always), Shaylee (junior-friend, also in Cheerleading squad), Bryan (Shaylee's boyfriend), Taylor (Shaylee's fun freshman sister!), Adam&Zack (Bryan's friends from Hastings college). On the way up we stayed at Wal*Mart to get all the food and stuff we needed, and for some reason the guys bought tons of donuts. Zack spent all his time in the car talking about himself, how expensive everything he owns is, how he apparently has the best life ever (again pretty much about money) WELL...

When we got th boat there were tons of "stickers"! They're like plant-thingys that gets stuck to everything! They look like small balls with pointy sticks out, and they hurt to. I've never seen anything like it, and it wasn't positive.

Jetskiing was fun though! Shaylee drove and she was a bit crazy, we pretty much flew and crashed into the waves. Awesome. Then ofcourse: Tubing. What made it even funner was that we went to at one time (not two on one tube, but on two different tubes) and sometimes you bumped into each other. Bryan was going fast, at least compared to when I went three years ago, but after a while you get used to falling off and try to climb up that tube until you have no energy left. I can tell you I had such sore muscles the following day. So after a whole day of jetskiing, tubing and boatriding we were to set up the camp. Unfortunately it took somewhat longer time than we thought to get everything up on dry land again, and when we finally arrived to the camp it was dark, and for a while we thought it was full. We found a spot though. The guys set up the tent, and I helped doing dinner. It felt good when everything was in place and we could just sit down on our chairs and talk by the fire. I was soo tired and almost fell asleep a couple of times and when I did go to bed I slept through the whole night. "Som en stock". Felt bad for Nikki who didn't feel that good.


Monday:

The ACTUAL Labour day. Have no idea what they're celebrating and they pretty much didn't know anything either, exept the fact that we're getting one exta day of weekend. Went tubing again, but wer still tired in my arms so I fell off all the time. Zack and Adam went crazy though! They told Bryan to drive pretty much as fast as he could, and turn sharply, all that. In the curves they were like going 90 miles/hour! They held on to it, sat on it, sat on i backwards, like everything you could do. It was scary just watching them, but they apparently enjoyed it!

Drove home. Were supposed to be home at four or something so I decided that since it was my mom's birthday I would call to congratulate her. We came home about six, and I didn't want to wake her up in the middle of the night... I sent her an e-mail, but felt so bad. Didn't want her to think that I forgot her, cuz I certainly did not. I love you mommy.
