*July*

Ahhh, summer! July has been filled with the many activities that I love about summer. We have vacationed at Bear Lake at my parents cabin, we have gone swimming, we have done sparklers and celebrated the 4th of July and Pioneer day. We have played at splash parks and the beach at Oquirrh Lake. We have eaten more than enough popscicles and corn on the cob and watermelon. We have BBQ'd to our hearts content and run around in our swimsuits everyday. I love summer! Here are loads of pictures of this month. And they are in backwards order, but I don't have time to move them around!

This is the neighborhood breakfast and bike parade:

Last year I had to ride with the kids on the tube, this year I got to fear for my life on the tube... no pics of me on tube, but I love the fear on Lacy's face in this pic....it is hillarious to hear her scream the whole time...I almost peeed my pants!!!

Tyler and Bradley on the tube...they talked too much smack before their ride....not smart


Brooke and Jackson first time at Bear Lake


Swimming:
We decided to go later at night so we coulde take Kennady and not worry about sunburns. She loved it!


This is how I found Gavin one day, minus the snow boots that he took off before I was able to take a picture!

Gage and Kennady

I hope August is just as fun, even though Gage starts the big K next week!!!

Oh what do you do in the summertime....

Here is a recap of the entire month of JUNE!! We have been too busy to blog about it! Gage had swim lessons the first part of June and it poured rain every lesson! But he had a lot of fun!! June has been unusually rainy so we have taken full advantage of sunny days. One day we were the first one's to the splash park and a guy asked me if I was really going to let them play in the water. We ended up staying for 3 hours. We have done bubbles, sidewalk chalk, slip n slides, played in the rain,went swimming at the pool, (which by the way both boys think they don't need their Mom by them to swim, they would rather drown), played at Oquirrh lake, went to the chalk festival, celebrated my big 30, and finally made it up to the cabin at Bear Lake!! The kids love Bear Lake, it has been a lot of fun, unfortunately I think it has come to an end. We have worn out our welcome. But I did get to ski and try out my new wakeboard! Tons of fun! Kennady did surprisgly well. She just liked chillin' at the beach. And the kids had very little fighting, until it was time to go home. But the biggest event of June was definatly my little sister Ashley's wedding. It was a beautiful and fun day!
