Coleman Family

Well Daniel is gonna be swimming in the Labor Day Peir Swim again, lets wish him the best cos big boy has been working out and going to the pool for some practice. I told him he better stay next to the Seadoos that have the lifeguards in them, in case he needs assistance. He has swam it before, so Im sure he will do fine.

My family usually does a Labor Day Walk to the beach… bright and early in the morning to watch Daniel swim.

Anyways, have fun Big D!!

Here are some pictures of my family on the beach from a few weeks ago.

The family together again on the beach

Today Chad and I have been married 4 months!! Its going by pretty fast so far. But all is good, Chad is a wonderful husband. He makes it fun and easy to be married.

Things are pretty much back to normal around here. Camping was great! It was so relaxing and fun to see my family again, I have missed them so much. We played Texas Hold’em, drank wine and Madori Sours, played games around the campfire, rode in Gramps Boat, ate chocolate, rode kayaks, and so forth… And when we went back to Oceanside we had alot of fun going to all the resturants I needed to eat at; Fillippis, El Asador, and In and Out. I also met up with some of my old friends… Angela and I went to Cold Stone, Lauren came over to Anna and Daniels condo to watch a movie, and I saw Angel again cos I saw her the whole week in Pinecrest. My family also walked on the Beach of Carlsbad, it made me miss going to the beach.

But yesterday was my first day back to work. And boy, that first day back after vacation always seems to drag on. But they are cutting about 10-15 hours hours a week for everybody durning the slow time of the year…. so thats gonna make things tuff for Chad and I, cos I just took that week off for vacation and now the hour cut. But that gives me more of a reason to keep looking for another job.

Jarrid is still up here looking for a place to work and a place to live, while living with the other Jared. So that’s always fun… having Jarrid and Jared living together right next door to us. But Jarrid is working with Chad’s parents at the Billiard and Spa shop for now until he finds something more permanent.

Tomorrow Chad and I are heading over to Montana cos his friend, Scott is getting married. So that should be fun, I love going to Weddings.

I took a picture of JJ’s wife, Sara, but she turned away to fast, so it was blurry. What a sissy!

Me and Jarrid went up to the Bonner County Rodeo last night, up in Sandpoint. Good times!

And Carrie is due back here tomarrow afternoon, so that’ll put things pretty much back to normal. But tonite! We’re goin bowling!

Well Heath landed at his post in Fort Bragg, N. Carolina the other day. Be sure to stop by his site and read. He just got transfered there from S. Korea.

So after church today, we went out for lunch with the family. Then we stopped off at the local sporting goods to pick up some ammunition. Headed out to Hayden Crick shooting range, and had a good time. Here are the pics.

So as you all know, Heath showed up at his new assignment in Fort Bragg, N. Carolina. He gets his new phone, and his barracks, and I’m already gettin camera phone pics of his ugly mug. But thats what happens when he’s stationed here in the states. I’d just like to send him a big fat thanks from me and the mrs. Before he left for Bragg, he comes into the house and says “Hey, I got some stuff for you guys”.

A bunch of DVD’s, Xbox games, and more! Thanks dude.

And, the Inlaws came up for the week to BBQ and party. Then today we agreed to swap my wife for my brother-in-law, to which I promptly replied “Thank you God!!!!” …

just kidding.

So Carrie Ann went camping with her family for the week, while Jarrid Rhodes stayed here with me to go job hunting. Please keep him in your prayers, that the Lord will open up doors and allow Jarrid to work here in town with a good job.

I have some pics on here that I’ve been meaning to post… I’m just gettin real sloppy as I end up workin on a website or playin some of these xbox games that Heath graciously donated to my “Pale Kid Fund”. Some fine day I’ll actually post em.

Well we’ve been havin a blast up here since the Matuszaks & Rhodes came on up. From days at the lake, to BBQ’s at my folks house, and plenty of house hunting for Jarrid and CC. We even did some pistol shooting at the range behind my folks house during the BBQ, and anna got to shoot a Smith and Wesson .40 for the first time. I’ll post some pics as soon as I get em off the camera.

I’m getting my house ready for all the company that we are gonna be having real soon here! So I’m cleaning and buying a whole bunch of food to keep my family occupied while I’m working and for them to take to the lake. Plus Heath is on his way up here so that will be nice to see him too.

I’m so excited to see everybody!! Its been too long!

A few days ago Chad and I had a few friends over for some pizza and volleyball playin. It’s nice cos I am finally starting to make some friends, and I’m not the only girl hanging out with Chad’s friends. But we have fun playing volley ball, it gets us out in the hot sun and running around. Then later on that night we watched King Alexander, which I thought was a horrible movie. We didn’t even finish watching it cos it was so bad.

Then last night, we went and saw The Dukes of Hazzard. That was a good movie. Chad has been wanting to see that movie so bad for so long, so we spent the money to go see it. It had the action and some funny parts. But movie theaters are so expensive now days, we have to choose wisely on what movies we want to see.

Brenda, Brandons mom, was gracious enough to envite Carrie Ann and I out on the boat for some tubing goodness, yesterday after church.

The water was mighty choppy, so we were gettin’ beat up by that tube pretty bad. But it was all good and fun. Here are some pics.
