Wisconsin

Yesterday, we just got back from a very fun week at Wisconsin!


On the way there, we went to Crystal Cave. It was 4 stories deep!...i think :\ It was kinda cold and we saw a bat! Someone got married there...who would do that? (weeiiird)


There was a wishing room in the cave. Everyone put a coin somewhere on the wall and made a wish. The dime in the middle happens to be my wish :) So later, dad got some change for something he bought and the coins he got were all dirty and old looking. We think the workers take the coins off of the walls and use them! What a rip huh!!!


We got to our cabin at Bass Lake campground and...well...the lake was...not as big as one would think...it was smaller than a football field. We were disappointed. But at least they had this great pool that me and dad are doing handstands in!


Then we went on Captain Ron's Jet Boat ride! It was a blast! The landscape there is beautiful! On the boat we did 360's and sudden stops. We got soaked! Woo-hoo!


When we went shopping in the Dells I got a HUGE strawberry covered in yummmyy chocolate! IT WAS AMAZINGLY AWESOME!


We went to a Magic Show called The Rick Wilcox Show one night and oh my it was unbelievable! It was prolly one of my favorite things we did! I got a picture with them and got their signatures on a poster that is now hanging up in my room :)


Noah's Ark was huge and lots and lots of fun! The ride we are just getting done with above is called the Time Warp! That and Black Anaconda were a couple of our favorites.


Forrest (above) went on The Scorpian's Tail. It is in fact the only looping waterslide! SCARY (i'd say)!


The wave pool was very wavy! (who woulda thunk?)


Our hotel (pictured below) had a fun waterpark!


It was huge!


Lake Michigan!


Daddy built a big hole in the sand :)


It was a great family vacation!!!:)

I love these days :)

Today I went on a photo shoot with Megan. It was a blast! I am using an iPad right now so sorry if the language is a little iffy! Anyway, we started out by packing up some changes of clothes props to take pictures with.
We walked over to an old house (too bad we 15 year olds can't drive aye?!), took some pics and danced a little.
Then we walked a ways and stole someone's rake to take some more shots next to.
Next we walked to a wheat field (not owned by us), tried not to smash down too much and make the farmer mad, and took some more really fun shots! I had to change into a different pair if clothes and no where to change so I sat down in the wheat and changed while megan tried taking pictures of me! Ohhh megan!
We got an ingenious plan to take some pics on the dirt road! They turned out pretty good but while we were shooting we had to quick run off the road for cars to pass. So this is us:
"ok quick pose, lay down or something!"
"good now one...two...car!!"
"ahhh!"
"whew, that was close!"
Ok let's try again."
Then we had to walk all the way back! Huh uh huh!
We made it back! Now let's go pig out on toaster strudels!
