Last fun day!

So we decided to do one last fun thing with our kids before they go back to school.  We took the kids downtown to the Childrens Museum and then to play in the fountains at the Gateway.  It was really nice that they had so much to do, that they did not complain once.  They had a great time!  What a nice way to end the summer.

Last camping trip of the year!

This last weekend we spend time in Nephi Canyon for our last camping trip of the year.  Jon and Colby had to stay home because of Football, so it was just Ashlee, Colton, Connor and myself.  What a great weekend we had.  They had fun playing in the water, rolling down the hill and just running around.  Thanks Holland's for letting us use the property again.  It was wonderful!

Happy Birthday Colby!

Colby turned 9 this last weekend.  He has been looking forward to his birthday since last year.  Colby loves to be the center of attention.  Birthday's are no exception.  He is learning to love football and wants to be a linebacker.  He was very excited about the gifts he received this year.  Mom was just as excited as now she does not have to clothes shop for school.  SCORE!!  Happy Birthday bucko!!

Moon Lake

Every year we go to Moon Lake.  This is such a great place.  Swimming, Hiking, and just being with family.  The stars are always so much brighter at night, except this year we had a full moon every night.  This year was just beautiful.  It was a little hot but no rain.  That is amazing.  In the 8 years we have been going it has rained every year.  Just one more thing to be grateful for.  The kids love to play at the beach.  This year it looks like someone got stuck in the the sand and had to be dug out.  My kids thought it was a great opportunity to have a sand/mud pit.  I never thought that they would come clean.  It is amazing to me the little things that make them happy! 

Ever wonder Where is Waldo?

Well today we went to the West Jordan Parade.  Guess What??  We found Waldo!  Not the best picture, but my kids were excited to see that they had found Waldo!  I hope that you all have a Happy 4th of July! 

Summer Time!!

So I was just counting...Only 7 more weeks of summer.  Can you believe it!  I can't!  Summer time has been a lot of fun so far.  It has mostly just been fun to relax and not worry about school stuff.  As most of you know I have been the PTA president at my school the last 2 years.  Well this was the last year.  I am sad but also very excited about all of this extra time that I will have on my hands.  I'm sure I will be able to fill it.  HA HA!
I hope you all are having a wonderful summer!  Enjoy it. 

Colton is 7!!

I said this last month with Ashlee and Connor, but really I can't believe that Colton is 7.  It just amazes me how time flies.  Colton loves to play baseball and loves to help around the house.  He has the funniest sense of humor that keeps me going everyday.  Happy Birthday Buddy!!
