Let there Be Sight.....

And There was sight.....


And It was good!



I finally did it- I have wanted lasik forever. I am tired of glasses and contacts that hurt and move and fall out! So off to hoopes vision we went!

When I sat down to meet with the doctor he noticed that I have my eyeliner tattoed on, He then proceeded to tell me if you can do that, this will be a piece of cake...
he didn't lie!

It was the easiest thing ever. Lay under this machine for 14 seconds per eye! Stand up and walk out to a massage chair with a little blurry vision and have a little massage for 15 minutes!! Go to the next machine and lay down and watch the green light for 18 seconds on each eye! No pain just a horrid smell-like burnt flesh- that you realize is your eyeball! Not my favorite part! Walk outside and sit in an exam chair for 10 more minutes and then have doctor check your eyes and go home! That was it- In and out in 60 minutes. It was awesome- Later that night after my valium induced nap I decided to watch the DVD of the procedure they gave us- Yeah could have done without that- It made my eyes hurt!!

Today I went back for my follow up appointment and I have 20/20 vision



The doctor said my vision may improve over the next 3-6 months. I can read license plates and the TV screen. I even put my glasses on to see if I could still see out of them- I can't! I have now added lasik to the list of the top ten best things I have done in my life!!

Hasta La Vista Contacts and glasses- You will not be missed!

Something Fishy?!?!

We needed a family fun day so we headed up to the Living Planet Aquarium for the day. The kids loved looking at all the fish and sea life- Whitley was bound, bent and determined that if she kissed the frog she would become the Frog Princess, Tiana,
It didn't happen and I am still waiting for her to get some flesh eating frog disease!!

The finding nemo fish tank was a hit with everyone

Karden loved "high fiving" the sting rays-
Whitley well she was having no part of it!!

The new penguin exhibit was really neat and the kids loved to watch them jump and swim and show off for us!

It was a great day with all my nieces and nephews! We were all sad to have to go home!

Partying it up in Park City

For Fathers Day weekend we headed up to spend a few relaxing days in Park City- Thanks to Ryans Uncle who let us use his timeshare- We had a blast!!
Did you know that it is really truly possible to get sick of swimming!! It can happen!! I know Strange huh?

Our time was spent swimming, shopping, swimming, watching movies, bounce houses, oh yeah and swimming!! The kids were in Heaven!!

On Fathers day we headed down to the zoo, What a awesome fathers day present if I do say so myself- Yeah Ry didn't think it was as neat!!

We ended up celebrating My nephews birthday party as well. So the kids all got Indiana Jones bags full of Treasures. They thought it was really exciting to look at the animals through there binocs,
writing in there notebooks, posing for pictures
and shooting there cap guns (okay the cap gun was NOT to be brought into the zoo but Karden snuck his in and after shooting it off, the gun was quickly banished into the Indiana Jones bag until further notice!!)

The boys also loved consulting the map so they could take us to see the snakes! Of course we had to sit down, have a rest and a snack!

The kids had a great time playing with there cousins and wore themselves completely out!


It was a great weekend surrounded by my favorite people!! ( and no laundry) :)
