Summer

We were so excited Summer was finally here! The last few days of May were filled with fun. The girls were super excited for the start of the Springville High cheer clinic. Brynlee made her own row at the front so she could see. She had her first kickball game that night as well with her team the Green Leopards. We had our first summer day at Grammy's having lunch, playing on the slip 'n slide, making a hot tub in the sandbox, and eating popsicles. It was a great way to start our summer break.  

Memorial Day Weekend

We had a great weekend. We were excited that school was over for the year (for the kids) and excited for the fun things we had looked forward to since last summer. We went on a nice Sunday walk and I just loved the view of our neighborhood as we turned back down the hill with the kids, happily enjoying the beautiful weather. Hap liked the walk too. Weid went golfing with my Dad and the Vawdrey boys. I took the kids to the American Fork Cemetery for our annual visit. I think Hap liked feeling near his Great Great Grandpa Hap.

It reminds me of the days when I used to do this with Heidi and Hailey with Cougar close by, so I found a picture from 2010 and included it. Our downstairs bathroom was officially inspected and deemed ready for use. It has been so nice to have that bathroom downstairs for the older kids. Hailey decorated some flip flops at activity days. Weid started open court days for the girls tennis team. Brynlee had a practice for kickball and is so excited to play. The splash pad opened so we decided to go. The kids had fun. Hap enjoyed watching everything going on around him and didn't even mind getting splashed as everyone ran by him. Cougar's tan lines make me laugh. ...
