Summer Fun

With summer wrapping up, we hit a few fun spots!!  Grandma Gigi took Paigey and a few friends to the children's museum.  Meanwhile, Brock and Huddy partied it up!  Then, we grabbed the Sonju cousins and headed for a day of fun!  First we hit the bowling alley and Brock tore it up with a score of 144!  We did the worm when we got a strike and the girls almost peed their pants when I went to retrieve Wyatt's ball in the next lane over and fell.... HARD... on my BUTT!!  Moving on, we went for Dairy Queen and then headed to the Children's Museum.  Maddie and Paige were in heaven singing Frozen songs on the stage... for hours.  It was a great day- love those girls!














Kanaarville Falls

We packed up the crew and headed to hike for the day.  It was about 3 1/2 miles and the kids did great!  You hike through the river most of the hike and then hit the canyon.  There is an awesome ladder and some killer waterslides too.  We saw lizards, bugs galore, and even a snake!  We had packed a picnic lunch, so we stopped in the canyon and sat down as a family to eat! The kids had so much fun and it was so good to get away after a long week of volleyball camp!!  By the end of the hike, the kids were soaked but it was totally worth it!



















Swim Team

So we figured that the best way to entertain kids at a 20 hour swim meet is to bring legos!  Seriously, we had about 8 kids in our tent at all times building ships, cars, and guys.  While the meets were long... and hot... the kids were amazing!  Both kids ended up making it to the championships!  The kids were butterfly champs and Bub was awesome in the IM.  Lots of getting up early (me included!) but lots of fun, lots of ribbons and medals, and lots of tight swimsuits!  Until next year....








Fun with my Kiddos

I have enjoyed this summer so much.  While I have been extremely busy with camps, we managed to have a blast!  While Chris was out of town working, I took the kids to see "The Little Mermaid" at Tuachan.  The show was simply spectacular and the kids loved it.  We invited Grandma Gigi which made it even better!  An extremely late night and all my kids fell asleep on the way home.  Heavy loads to carry to bed!  










4th of July

So I've gotten a little behind with my blog lately and I am catching up tonight!! Brock is playing night games at a friend's house and Paige is here having a sleepover with cousins!  I shall catch up 3 months tonight!!

So this was the fourth of July.  We had a great day with the Felder's and then fireworks in our front yard.  It was even better because our neighbors spent $1,000,000 on fireworks and we got to enjoy the whole show!!!! Muhahahahaha!!!!!
