June 2010

Summer is in full swing. It is so fun to have the kids out of school. We've been busy and haven't had time to get bored. We traded our Toyota Sienna in for a Honda Pilot. The Pilot is roomier than it looks. We gained an extra seat. It is totally more fun to drive. The DVD player is great. If the kids start getting cranky we just turn it on.

This summer the girls are doing reading group on Monday and Flash All Star Cheer on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Jonathan is doing reading group on Monday and gymnastics on Tuesday. Jonathan is a fantastic reader. On Tuesday we also go to the Cinemark for their summer movies. The kids love it. You see 10 kid movies for $5 over 10 weeks. We also go swimming a few times every week.

Elisabeth turned 9 years old. She is turning in to such a young lady. For her birthday we ate dinner in the basement of the Joseph Smith Memorial Building and went to an oldies concert at the Assembly Hall. We were rained out of the park. Thanks to everyone that came.


For Father's Day we cleaned the garage for Jason. Then we surprised him with a fishing trip to the Green River. We picked him up from work on Friday with the car pack and ready to go. He had no idea where we were going. He was super surprised. For dinner we went to a Chinese Buffet and then went swimming at the hotel. On Saturday Jason went fishing and I went on some hikes with the kids. Then we went and saw a fish hatchery. We all got lots of Mosquito bites from being next to the river. I forgot the bug repellent. Next we went and saw Dinosaur National Monument. Jonathan and Jacob loved it. We saw the last thing at the park as the sun went down. We got home at 1 am on Saturday night. It was tons of fun.







Jason set up a slip and slide in the backyard on Friday night.


We went to the Lehi Roundup Parade. Lots of candy and free stuff.
