This past weekend we went to California. Curtis' grandmother passed away. We know that she is no longer in pain and is with our Heavenly Father is his Kingdom. Nichole will not ever really know her. I am sure that there will some story's but I am just so thankful that she has not one but two Grandmother's that will give her a life time of memories.There was something good that came from all of this. Curtis was able to see cousins that he hasn't in years, I meet more of the family but there was one person that I am so glad I meet. Uncle Max!! He is the man with all the knowledge, he done the family line back to Columbus... I so wanted some where to start and to know that so much is done was so wonderful.

Camping

We went to White Horse Lake about 20miles from Williams Az with the Witt's,McFaddens, GM and Nissan.Camping was lots of fun. We were able to get there Friday about noon and set up camp. Nichole and Curtis tried to do some fishing but didn't have much luck. There was lots of playing in the woods for Nichole and Aggie (our dog).Curtis even took Nichole out on a raft on the lake that was funny to watch, Curtis's side was almost in the water and Nichole's side was on air instead of the water. But they had fun, and got some sun on the lake. Caleb and Nichole played so much I think that they both loved being outside and the freedom of the woods. It was nice being about to spend time with Suzie, Frank and the boys. It was nice and relaxing all but trying to keep Nichole sleeping in her own sleeping bag. Which of course was my headache good thing I guess that I have a King Size sleeping bag. We did get a little rain but the tent held up with no problems. There was allot of funny things that happened but this one takes the cake. About 2:30 in the morning Curtis keeps telling me every five minutes or so that Aggie need to go outside to go potty. I just act like I am sleeping hoping that he will get up, so finally I was got up and Aggie was snoring away. I went back to sleep and within a few minutes there was some noise right around the tent and loud crunching. Curtis sits right and say that's not Aggie and gets a little on edge. Anyways long story short is was an animal eating the dog food that we forgot to bring into the tent.

Deer Farm

On the way to White Horse Lake for camping we stopped by the Deer Farm outside of Flag. It was fun. Then had a trail that you walk on and get to see different kinds of animals Then there is a large area that you walk in where you feed the Deer. Nichole was a little scared at first because the Deer all rush you but she loved being able to feed them, as well has the mini horse and cow.

Tired!!

Ok so I will just let this out of the bag before Curtis does, So Saturday morning we signed up to go work on the LDS Welfare Farm we had to be there at 5:30 am and it was an hour drive. So we got our map and head out about 45mins in we knew that we had to be going the wrong way, so when thing started to get us worked up we remembered that wonderful little button called onStar.. we got there just in time, and come to find out the person that did the map got the street names mixed up.. So we worked on the cotton field and when it was time to go Curtis wants to know where the keys are because I was the one that drove.. You see I put them in my pants at the top because I had no pockets, and no keys when he asked. Luckily it only took going up and down a few rows in the field to find them. So we got home in time for Curtis to go to work and me to have a play date with the new children that I am going to watch. It made for a long day, and to top it off we had to do Curtis Store Inventory at midnight Saturday into the morning. So the much needed nap that we got from about 9:00 the morning to 1:00 was great thanks to my sister who watched Nichole, and then we had Dinner there too.. Not a bad ending to a tiring weekend. So with that said good night and have a good week.

Big Surf

So today we went to Big Surf.. It was alright but it sucked because they were all about the 48'' tall we thought that since Sunsplash and Big Surf were run by the same owners we didn't think that they wouldn't be so anal but they were. Maybe they have had some problems in the past who knows. We did have fun but just not as much as last week. So next week we are going camping we should have some good pictures and things to say about that hope we don't get rained on ++

Sunsplash Park

So yesterday we went to Golf Land Sunsplash. We got there right when it open at 10:00. Nichole couldn't believe it. We knew that the day was going to be great or she would be hate. So we took her life vest and she was able to go the slides that you can do double tubes with Curtis or myself. She loved it. So we went down everyone even the black hole a few times the lines were short, so that was nice. Then we went to the tubes that you just go down on your back, we didn't think that they would let her go because she wasn't 42'' tall but they were so cool about it and were like she has a life vest on and the parents are right here so no big deal she can go. One problem she had to go by down the tube by herself. The first time that she went we had to kind of make her and she was a little mad I think because her little body went so fast and she didn't know what to expect. A little later on in the day we went back and she wanted to do them again. So need less to say we had a really great time and it was wonderful that Nichole is a little rough thing. So know that we know that she loves it we will be going to Big Surf before the end of the month.*** Oh I almost forgot it was a 108 out and guess who is as red as a lobster, we put on sun block every hour to be on the safe side. Curtis just got a little darker and Nichole has like olive color to her now but mama is bright red I don't get it I guess I am just glad that Nichole got Curtis skin and not mine!!***

The Armijo Family

So I guess that I will just give an update as to what we have been up too. June was filled with action. We started the month off with Curtis having surgry on his shoulder. Everything has been healing well. Nichole had a problem with running into walls and almost knock herself out twice. Also we took about two weeks off in June to spend time in Kingman- My brother and his family came from Germany and we got to spend alot of time with them- that was wonderful!! So that brings us into July, for the 4th we had all of Curtis's family over for swimming and a bbq(a little Rock Band and Sarah's game singing wars)then we went over to Vickie and Burts to watch the fireworks. We have just been trying to stay cool with going to the water park, zoo nights and just hanging out with friends and family.
