Fuller Tunes
Does anyone have any of the Fuller Songs saved somewhere? I can only remember some verses or some parts of the songs, and it's been buggin me lots lately, when I try and sing them to my kids. HAHA If you have any of them, either post them on here, or email them to me.
For example:
Fuller Rap
The original Fuller song, to the tune of "In Our Lovely Deseret"
Our Fuller song...even though I helped write this song, I can only remember one verse. They started out their marriage on the 2nd day of June..... what's the other verses?
Dog Kickers
And any others that you can think of that we all should know and teach our kids. :)
THanks peeps!

Sister Fest 2011
The morning of it all, in the car ready to go. Alissa drove her suburban down and it was so fun because we all got to ride together. We left Ang's house a little before 8:30 in the morning on Friday.
Once we got there and checked out Case's cute house and got stuff put in the rooms and all that jazz, we started making lunch. It was super yum (all the food was, thanks to Case for getting and planning it all). After lunch we headed out to go shopping. We made a time limit because no one really had lots of money to spend, and then it turns out everyone wanted to keep shopping, but we called it quits because it was dinner time and we had games to play that night. Something else we did before we went shopping was give each other our secret sister gifts. This was something new we did this year and I personally loved it and thought it was so fun. We did it just like at girls camp, we had a $15 limit (although I think most peeps went over), gave a gift on each day, and we kept it a secret (kinda, most everyone knew who someone had). Any ways, I loved the whole secret sister thing, its a must for the next ones to come I think.
For lunch we made these yummy sandwiches that had mozzarella, tomatoes and avacadoes and then they were toasted. Well when we got home from shopping, we were all in the kitchen helping get stuff ready for dinner time and Mom comes over eating this bread. This bread was in the garbage and Mom got it out and started eating it. There was so much food and treats at this fest, it was crazy, and here is Mom eating some bread with cheese on it out of the garbage. It was gross, and we all told her, and then I made her let me take a pic of her :) She said it was on top and nothing was on touching it, but when I looked over at the garbage there was all sorts of stuff on top of the other pieces of bread haha. This is a classic Mom move :) so I had to put this pic on, Love ya Mom
This was at dinner that night. At this point Linz was sick of the cameras.
So then she did this when I took a pic of just her. So cute LInz, I love it.
Friday night we made a quick Target run, and then came back to play a fun game Ang had planned for us. She had a million questions and each person would get a question asked to them and they would write their answer and we all had to come up with the answer we thought the person who the question was for would answer. It was super fun and she had awesome prizes of course, done in Ang style (go big or go home). As you can see in this pic, Dres inherited Dustin's fun faces haha. We loved having Dres there and it was lots of fun with her.
Ang doing her game and sporting her cute new pajama pants from her secret sister.
Saturday we woke up early to go for a hike in Zions. Well we all woke up early but we didn't end up leaving early. It didnt' matter because we weren't on any schedule so it was all good (except it was getting pretty warm) We had some tourists snap a few pics of us while we were waiting to get on a bus to take us to our stop.
LInz's face in this pic pretty much says what she thinks of being there. She wasn't a fan of the hike.
So it turns out no one brought a back pack for the hike, and Case didn't have any so Dres and LInz came up with their own style. It worked pretty good, but they started getting swack. Also the hike didn't go quite as planned. Linz had a serious asmtha attack part way up the hike, so we all turned around and went back down. No one cared and it was still fun to be out together. On the way home from Zions we decided to take a detour and head to Colorado City to check out the polygs. It was super fun and crazy. They are so fascinating and we all wanted to go in their houses and check them out.
After the hike everyone was getting sleepy and most peeps were laying around. Then Bird had LInz start picking at her ear and getting the blackheads out. Pretty soon they had a crowd. Ang was so interested she decided to mount up and check it out. haha I'm so funny.
Bird was in pain, and we were entertained. We all had our heads shoved down there trying to see, LInz was getting ticked cuz we kept blocking her light, and we kept on getting in her way to try and see a little better. She was mostly working on the same one black head the whole time. It was huge and stuff just kept coming out of it. It was sick and interesting.
Checking out the other ear, but there wasn't much there. So we went back to the other one. At the end of it all, there was still more in there but LInz couldn't get any more out and Bird's ear was throbbing. Then on the way home the next day, Bird asked me to look in her ear and see if I could see anything in that one LInz was digging at. I told her there was something there and it looked like she needed to scratch it off or something. She did and then she pushed on her ear from the outside and a HUGE chunk of stuff came out. LIke the size of a seed of a sunflower seed. It was sick and we were all dying over it and looking at it and making her bend over the seat so we could see in her ear after that. It was crazy and I have never seen anything so big come out of a zit. And it was hard, like a seed. Crazy huh? I didn't take a pic of it, but now I wished I would have so you could all see it.
After the digging of Bird's ear, we decided to start on the craft. They turned out super cute and took lots longer than we were thinkin and Case's house was covered in a layer of orange fuzz after. I didn't take any pictures of the craft doing and I'm sad cuz they were so cute and it was SO messy and definitely picture worthy. Once we got mostly cleaned up after the craft at 10 that night we headed out to find some place that was open still so we could eat dinner. We found one place still open and went in and ate. When we got home, we played a fun Jenga game that had questions on them that Liss brought. (in case anyone is wondering why Bird and LInz are looking so cute, they showered while we were finishing up our craft and let their hair air dry and then went to dinner looking so beautiful :) Most peeps headed to bed after that. Not me or Bird, we got breakfast ready at 1:30 in the morning and then went to bed :)
Sunday morning before we were getting ready to leave. Caleb came home so we had him snap a pic of all of us before we all left.
This Sister Fest was so much fun and I just wanted to tell everyone thanks for coming and thanks for putting time and effort into it. That's what made it fun and memorable. Thanks to Case and Caleb for letting us take over your house and do Sister Fest there and the food and shopping . Thanks to Alissa for driving us there and all over the place and the game. Thanks to Mom for making the cute mail boxes and letters (and cutting those torturous burlap strips). Thanks to Ang for the game and ordering stuff for the craft and planning with me. Thanks to Bird and Dad in getting the secret sister stuff put together. Thanks to Linz for the cute treats and quotes on our pillows at night. Thanks everyone for everything. I'm sure I forgot stuff of what peeps did, but thanks everyone. Also a thanks to the husbands who had to take time off work and who stayed with the kids so we could go do this and for their support in letting us stay close as a family and especially as sisters, it means a lot to me and I know to all of us sisters, so THANK YOU HUSBANDS. I loved this Sister Fest and wish all you other sisters that didn't come would have been there. I had a blast peeps.
