Moab Was Great!

Moab was awesome!! We went off roading in rented jeeps, and road up some gnarly, rocky hills. (Where is my dirt bike when I need it?!) We also went mountain biking on two differant days. The first day was really extreme, but fun. We went biking on a trail called the Intrepid Trail in Dead horse Point. The second day was ten miles downhill; I had a blast!
I saw my cousins, who came up from Tuscon. While we were off-roading and climbing rocks with our jeeps, the girls and I screamed all the way.

My dad driving on a trail actually called Hell's Revenge :p

There were ups and a couple downs (e.g. me passing out in a walmart in Texas) but, all in all, I had a great time. :)

Moab, Utah and Painful Car Rides

Greetings, from New Mexico! I would tell you about the beautiful scenery and cacti, but guess what? It's a bit after midnight, and I'm in the car. So I haven't seen a thing in New Mexico except for the road, a few tractor trailors, some grass, and vaguely the horizon line. I hear New Mexico has a lot of cultural diversity, and has a rich personality. And you know, I would love to go on about New Mexico, but guess what? My destination is Moab, Utah, the 2nd best place in the world. (Next to my home!) 
Moab is amazing! It's like a outdoors Shangri-la. You can hike like mad, you can rent a hummer and go off roading, you could go mountain biking, or even white water rafting. There's also this one restraunt my family and I love called The Moab Diner.

You know, getting to Moab by car is hard on a kid like me or my brother. That's why we have to think of fun activities to do. Here's a list:
~play would you rather
~watch movies
~trivia
~20 questions
~draw, color, read
~text people
~take pictures of yourself wearing sunglasses (not that i do that)
~constantly check where you are with Google Earth
~draw the flags of all the states you've been through
~crossword puzzles
~word searches
~pick at your sibling(s)

Car rides can be painful.

I've set up a poll for you. Vote if you care about the children of painful car rides. 
Thank you

An EXTREMELY Easy Way of Making Lip Gloss

I found this amazing way of making your own lip gloss, and I thought I'd share it with you. (Plus my cousin requested it! :))
It's really easy, and the results are really cool.

What you need:
•Vaseline
•Lip Gloss Containers (I used a tupperware container)
•A microwave safe dish
•A microwave and spoon
•A colorant: Tiny shreds of lipstick or koolaid
•Sparkles and/or Glitter (optional)
•Flavoring: honey and/or vanilla, mint or almond extract

Making the Gloss:
1: With the vaseline being your base, add it to the microwavable container and if your using lipstick shreds, add those too. Then microwave it for 30 seconds to a minute.
2: Once the microwave is done, add flavor, glitter, and koolaid (if you didn't already use lipstick)
3: Mix vigorously
4: Refridgerate for one to two hours, then use for yourself, or give as a gift. :)

This recipe works great! I love it! If you do too, please comment!!! :)
