Widsom be gone

I had my wisdom tooth extracted last night.... To compare it with something, it feels like a c-section, a lot of tugging and pulling.. After I left the dentist I went across the street to walmart to fill my prescription, they told me thirty minutes so I decided to wait even though I was in a lot of pain. Thirty minutes later I got in the longest line ever to pick my meds up and this OLD lady comes out of no where, jumps in front of the line and proceeds to not only pick up her meds but check out her entire cart full.. That got everyone in line pretty heated.. I didn't get home until almost 7:00 and I had left the dentist at 5:40.. The only way I was able to get to sleep was with an ice pack... This morning I felt okay but like I had been punched in the face.. This afternoon I feel like I ran a marathon, got punched in the face and have been up for days like a drug addict.. BLAH!! All I've had to eat today was chicken broth with saltine cracker so i'm pretty hungry and craving chilis, taco bell, pizza hut.. LOL.. I will end up only being able to eat mashed potatoes tonight which is fine with me.. I am terrified of getting a dry socket!

WOW!!

I am back after being away from a long time! I have been going to school to be a real estate broker and focusing all my time on that. I am almost done... YAY!! I have about a week left and then I will go take a four hour exam and hopefully get a job soon after... I have a lot of goals that I will be posting about soon, but for now I have to get back to the books

Carter Lake

Carter Lake is located in the foothills west of Loveland. It has 1,100 acres of water. Carter Lake is my least favorite lake to boat at so far in Colorado, mainly due to the lack of sandy beach areas. The only area we could find to beach the boat didn't have any sand, it was all rocks. The hiking trails were very nice.

Horsetooth Reservoir

Horsetooth Resevoir is beautiful! Located west of Fort Collins in the foothills. It has 1,900 acres of water and is 6.5 miles long. The only thing I don't like about Horsetooth Reservoir is it doesn't have any beach areas to park the boat to stretch your legs and let the kids play. If it had more beach area for boats then this would be my favorite place to boat; so far in Colorado.

Chatfield Reservoir

Chatfield Reservoir is about 40 minutes from our house, it is the lake we went to all last summer with our waverunner since it was so close to our old apartment. I like Chatfield quite a bit but Tony doesn't since the water can get pretty choppy. My favorite part about Chatfield is how almost the entire lake is lined with a sandy beach so there are plenty of places to park your boat and stretch your legs. Chatfield is nicely sized at 1550 water surface acres.

Boyd Lake State Park

Boyd Lake State Park is in Loveland CO about 40 minutes from our house. Boyd was an OK lake. It is nice in size, about 1700 surface-acres of water. Has a pretty nice size swim beach, nice sandy area to beach your boat but if you don't get a spot early you won't have a nice sandy area and your only other option if you want get off the boat and onto land to let the kids play or picnic would be to park your boat along the grassy areas which are stinky and full of bugs. The following pics are from two different time we went to Boyd.

OUR NEWEST TOY

We've had a waverunner for a while now but when we went to the lake only one adult could be out on the water at a time while the other adult stayed with the kids on the shore. Waverunners are very fun but not very family friendly.. Last summer 2009 we decided we were going to buy a boat before summer 2010 so our entire family could be out on the water at the same time. We bought our boat March 2010 and have been out at the lake every weekend since it has warmed up. Our summer goal is to visit as many of the boatable waters in Colorado as possible. So far we have been to five; Boyd, Chatfield, Carter, Jackson and Horsetooth. Tomorrow we leave for our summer vacation to Lake Powell.
