Jet skiing with the Burkes

I went on the jet skis yesterday with my mom, my dad, my brother and me. I rode with dad. My brother rode with my mom. I had a very good time.
One time we went jet skiing just me and my dad, and Brother Burke and Zack and Britain came too. My dad kept going over these jumps and kept jumping the jet ski. It was scary because I was sitting in front of him and there's nothing really to hold on to. Sometimes he would pretend that he was gonna run the jet ski right into the rocks but he was just tricking me. Me and Britain and Zack had fun. My dad dared us to swim across the shore to the rocks. Me and Britain did it. It was easy but kind of far, about 2 miles. We earned $2 from my dad for doing it. We ate lunch on a sandy land. I found lots of seashells and Britain and Zack found pretty rocks. Then we headed back on the jet skis and my dad went to go get the Excursion to load up the jet skis. After that we left and we had fun. The end.

Carlee's Car

Will and I often talk about what kind of car we want to get Carlee when she turns 16. Will wants to get her a Jeep Wrangler. I say a slug-bug- one of the new ones. Even though I think she would look so cute in one I think they are too small for a brand new driver. Carlee says she wants a truck or an Excursion.
Last year she was telling me that she wanted a truck when she grows up so when she gets off work she can throw her quad in the back of the truck and meet her dad at the dunes. Funny, huh!?

Carlee's Name

CARLEE ROSE
When I was pregnant with Carlee I liked the names Brooklyn, Ashlyn, and Madalyn(one of my best friends' middle name is Lyn); I also liked Madisyn, Julia, Lyla and Alexa. Will liked the names Heather, Amanda, and Jessica (all names of his previous girlfriends- go figure!). My mom suggested Carly and we both liked it a lot. We pictured a cute, little, curly-haired blond girl prancing around. I wrote all the different spellings: Carly, Carlie, Carli, Carley, and Carlee. We finally decided to spell it 'Carlee' - after my mom, her middle name is 'Lee'. Plus I wanted something just a tad different. I had a few people tell me they knew many little girls with that name but I mostly have heard 'Kaylie' and 'Kylie'. Carlee's middle name is a family name. It is Rose. My great grandma's name is Rosario (from Spain) and we always called her Grandma Rosie. She had the funnest spanish accent, not the spanish accents we are used to from those from Mexico, a real spanish accent straight from Spain; and she always said, "Yes, My Love" when talking to any of us kids. My younger sister, Tricia, is named after her as well- her middle name is Rose. So I guess we decided to go with the family name for the middle name.
