Me & Katers over the weekend

We went to Lake Pleasant again over the weekend. This time we came prepared – cooler, food, & floats. My float was rolled up for so long in my parents’ garage that it remained rolled up the entire time.

While we were mingling and relaxing we noticed a dust devil form near us and actually this family’s things, inflatable toys, table, and tent go up in the air. An hour later it happened again on the other side. It was like watching a tornado in a movie. Too bad we were all into watching it and did not take a picture. It’d be easier to just take pictures with our own eyes… a new eye-camera implant coming out 2030! :P

Tyler took his wedding ring off before he took a dip in the lake and placed it in the trunk of my car. Don’t ask why.

Now it’s nowhere to be found.

Poor Tyler was frantically looking for his ring when it was 109 degrees outside. And it was not helping him when I kept asking why he didn’t put it in the glove box. We’re hoping it’s still somewhere in the car and will still keep looking for it.

I hope you all had a wonderful 4th of July weekend!

Friday night we went to South Mountain to watch the sunset and it was gorgeous being able to see Phoenix all at once. While on top of the mountain, I wondered how many people…

won the lottery?
got married?
just gave birth?
died peacefully?
etc…

Tyler got on his knees and did a fake proposal. Who ever does that!? I tried getting him up to stop gaining attention for something that wasn’t real and I didn’t need people to start congratulating us.  

So beautiful… you’ve got to come visit Phoenix!

Swimming this weekend was actually nice and relaxing since no one was really at the pool all weekend. Probably because of the cool weather we have been having lately. Saturday we went in the hot tub then relaxed by the fire poolside. It reminded me of a Summer night in Seattle with the cool night breeze we had and the sky was clear like always with a full moon.

Sunday morning we got up early and went hiking. Amy adventured up on her own because she walks fast and Tyler injuired his back a few days ago. I tried getting him to admit that it’s just because he’s getting old! Next time we’ll make it to the top when no one has injuries and everyone has enough water.

Sunday night we got the giggles when Skyping with Megan and making fun of Rahul on AIM. I can’t wait until we all reunite again in Las Vegas next month. Summer is going by real quick and I’m afraid to blink to find out it’s over already.

Everyone was hoping it was going to rain yesterday but instead we got a beautiful view of the sunset from our balcony. Amy and I are suckers for beautiful sunsets and probably will run outside every night to just take a picture like we did last night.
