We started off the summer with two family reunions.. on the Robinson side. We drove to Boise twice in two weeks. :( Not a fan of traveling. At Rusty's reunion they have what they call "Redneck Golf". Where everyone brings there guns and shoot golf balls. In this picture you can see Rusty's grandma with a gun...a real gun that happened to be loaded. She is a very nice lady, but old and isn't there at all times so she was pointing that gun all over the place pulling the trigger. Thank goodness the safety was on and she didn't know how to take it off. Rusty finally realized that she had a loaded gun and took the clip out of it and gave it back to her. But this sweet lady realized something was missing and just kept yelling, "Give me back the rest of my gun!" It's funny now, but it makes me sick thinking of our things easily could have gone differently. (I swear I am not letting our kids participate in the Robinson reunions)
This is what I do during redneck golf. I sit and hold my gun. And then everyone kept coming and taking pictures of me like it was this odd thing that I wasn't out there shooting.
(* But I do have to add that I did grow up in Malad and the one time I did shoot I hit the target every time. They finally took my gun away because I was just too good :) I just don't like shooting guns that kick and shoot when there are guns being fired from every direction. That is when I get so nervous about something happening that I usually just sit and watch. )

The entertainment.
We moved... finally. We now live in a place where we can actually move around. (Thanks Courtney! :))
Girls camp. I only went up a couple nights, but it did bring back a lot of good memories.
Rusty was put in as the 2nd counselor in the Bishopric. I think he gets a little stressed because he wants to do a good job, but he has an awesome bishopric to work with and learn from. It will be a great learning experience for both of us.
Got Lazik. A scary experience but I'm sure it will be a great blessing. My mom was very nice to drive down and come with me as well as my husband. I was told that I was pale sitting in the waiting room waiting for them to call me back. I unfortunately got a cold the day before surgery and woke up several times during the night coughing. So I was scared that I would be sitting on that table while they worked on my eyes and have a cough attack that ended up ruining or damaging my eyes forever. Rusty gave me a blessing before I went and I luckily had a cough attack right before and right after on the way home and not during the procedure. So it was a blessing that the surgery went so well.

Wow you sure have been busy! I am so glad your surgery went well! It is good to see some pictures of you guys! Jer, your hair is so long and pretty! Hopefully we'll be able to see you before summer officially ends! p.s. I would totally be the same way with the red neck golf game! It makes me laugh every time you talk about it. I still remember a previous video of redneck golf and I can still here Rusty laughing! ha ha Oh man!
Where did you move to? Are you still in Salt Lake or did you get lucky and get out of here :)
