Summer Fun

Kaden Blackhurst from American Fork stayed with us for a few days here in Morgan.  Brady and Kaden had a lot of fun.

Brynn and Cate started gymnastics this summer at THE ROCK in Layton - they are loving it.

I love chubby tummies - except for mine.

Our goof ball

Time to retire this swim suit.

Again, our goof ball.

The boys are horsing around.

You can see a little shade of green in the background.  We are crossing our fingers that our grass will grow.

Brady and I were the exact same height in December.  He has grown 2 inches since then.  I decided I better take a picture of Brady next to Chad because he is going to pass him before long.  I just bought Brady a size 11.5 shoe - yikes!

We took a trip to Kneaders for their french toast and headed to SLC to City Creek and Temple Square.

I love this picture.

The girls bought these pillows at Justice.

Brynn's gymnastic teacher.

Helping at the roping rodeo.

I went into Deseret Book in SLC and they put a picture of my book on the wall - I have arrived.  Ha ha.  :)

Brady and Kaden went fishing a lot and rode motorcycles.

Lake Powell, Anthony's Birthday and Father's Day (All on June 16th)

We ventured off to Lake Powell for our summer vacation.  We went with our neighbor's, the Cannon's, and a few other families.  We have always camped on the beach with our family, so it was a real treat to stay on a beautiful house boat.  Ethan stayed home with a neighbor and family friend, the Fawson's.  They took such great care of him - thanks so much!  I didn't take a lot of pictures at Lake Powell, so here is what I have:

Levi's first time up on water skiis - love the face.

Anthony's Birthday Wish: to wake up at 6 in the morning and go fishing.

Jon "hooked us up" and found a sweet spot for fishing.  We would literally have 3 fish on at a time.

Anthony's birthday kayaking birthday adventure.

The girls LOVED tubing with Taylor Swift playing in the background.

This meant "go faster."

Paula and Levi

Probably one of the coolest kids I have ever met - Luke the Duke.

Chad and Jon left Anthony one morning to go fishing.  He was so upset that I had to take him over on a wave runner to meet up with them.

Paula and Micah

Our cliff jumping site was insane.  I only jumped halfway up.  It was SO high.

Anthony's birthday cake - 11 years old.

I don't know if you can tell how high that is.
