Well, only 1 more measly week left up here! So we're gonna make the best of it!! Tonight Brent, Sus, Brad, and I went to Stillwater, which is an adorable town!! It reminds me Breckenridge, where they had Main St. and all these little shops and restuarants all down the street and then really beautiful mountains, although there weren't mountains per say...but there was a really big cave and and a big lake on the other side so it's still beautiful. So first we were out swimming all day with John and Heather (the police and his wife) and their 3 amazing girls, maggie, anna, and katie. Omg, these girls are so cute, ages 14,8,5 and no fear. Katie, who is 5, decided twice it would be a good idea to jump in without her floaties.....the first time we were all sitting right there and heather just jumped in immediately, towel and all! and we laughed it off....the second time.....we were all done swimming and sitting on the layout chairs talking. Well Anna, who is 8 was swimming with a noodle, more like just sitting on it and all the sudden katie jumps in and i looked to see if she had her floaties on cause it wasnt like she makes a big splash and got everyones attention.....so then i was like "oh my gosh!" and john saw at the same time and jumped in after her and it really scared everyone so we went in after that. The girls all sat around in the kitchen and made brownies and talked and the boys went and played video games. Well when they all left sus and i pretty much crashed on the couch for a bit and couldn't decide on dinner and then brent couldnt decide on dinner so it takes him like 45 min to decide, then he wont tell us where. So we get in the car, and he takes us to Stillwater, which is about 25 minutes away, and then he cant find the place, but he wont tell us what it is so we cant help look for it...so he's driving like a madman and turning around and swearing and getting so worked up cause he cant find it that i'm literally feeling like i'm gonna pass out. so finally he's like "i have to get out of this car!!!" like freaking out it was pretty funny. so we park and walk for 5 seconds and its right in front of us! haha.....it was pretty funny. The place was called Luna something? It was Italian and we sat outside and the food was to die for!!! like everything we got (all 3 appetizers and 5 meals since brent eats 2 himself)...and desert, it was all SO good! We were all busting at the seams though, first thing i did when i came home was put on sweat pants haha. But the funniest thing is during dinner there was this bird singing or yelling like crazy and so we start to look for it and we're right on the street cause we're eating outside, and we look and there is a bird swooping in front of cars, like, trying to get hit...and yelling and then going over to its nest. so like, we think it was trying to "protect" its nest but we laughed all dinner and afterwards at this bird who is flying at cars looking like it has a death wish or something like so many people are stopped watching it it was so funny. but yea, we had a really good night, the food was good....and pleasant most of the time except when brent turns into "mr.knowitall"

Ok holders. I made an off comment today while we were making brownies cause brent was saying how mom's peanut butter brownies are so rich that you cant eat more than one..and i laughed and was like whatever i can eat a whole pan. Well MISTAKEEE cause he took it literally and is like no julie that's impossible noone can do that. well then he's stirred the pot. because i can sit there and eat like so many at once i mean yea they are rich but we grew up on them and brent, who has only had them for 5 years thinks he's gonna tell me, who has had them for probably 18 years that i cant eat that many. well no. i can and so we are arguing over this and now he wants us to make a pan and me to eat a whole pan and he will give me 10,000. and i so would but come on, he's not gonna pay up and i dont want to do that to my body. but he just keeps going on and on how its "physically" impossible....im like brent. no. it is not i could if i wanted to. i mean that boy could argue anything, he argues with susan over waxing!!! he's never been waxed oh but he knows more than we do.....haha, boys...impossible to live with and without!
