Projects....

The boys have decided that they are going to re-build a go-cart. Grandpa gave the boys my childhood go-cart. This go cart provided a lot of good times growing up. The go cart has been sitting at the cabin for years now. We brought it home and the boys have taken it completely a part. They have been mowing lawns all summer and have put some of the money they have earned towards fixing up the go-cart. Jimmy took the frame in for a power coating. Now the boys need to sand it down and fix a few welds and add a front bumper. This should be a fun project for them and an awesome reward to ride it when they are done. I love things like this that they can learn how to fix something and have fun doing it.





On to the oldest kids I mean man of the house. Jim and Randy have decided to put their pilots licenses to good use. They now fly dogs that are in shelters to new owners or to shelters that can take that type of dog. They are also doing some other projects that have to do with flying....any thing they can use for an excuse to fly.

Boating

Our good friend the Levitre's took us boating. We went to Jordanelle reservior. It also was my birthday. What better way to spend the day than with the ones I love the most!! Rylan and Dylan both did the wakeboard. Then it was the tube. Or shall we say the mattress with backsupport. It was a blast. But towards the end of the day we ended up popping the tube. tear... We hope that we get to go again next year. Thanks Levitre's for a fun day.

Zion's

At the end of August we took a little trip down to St. George. We stayed in my boss' summer home. It's beautiful there. We took my parents with us. The kids love the pool. I decided since Jimmy has never seen Zion's national park that we should take everyone over there to check it out. The kids loved it. Here are some of the pictures from our trip.

Casade Springs

I have been meaning to update the blog several times....but never got around to it...So here is what we have been up to. Every summer I love to go to Casade Springs. My parents took us there, so I have tried to keep the tradition. It is a beautiful ride and a nice walk to see nature.

Green

The other day Savannah and the boys went in a neighbor’s hot tub. Well I don't think that they take care of the hot tub. They definitely use too much chlorine. Guess how I know....Savannah beautiful blonde hair turned green. AHH! So I enlisted the help or Bonnie. I texted her. MAYDAY!! Help what I do for green hair. She suggested ketchup. Yep that's right ketchup. Well we tried it and it worked. HOORAY BONNIE. No more GREEN!

1st day of school!

Holy Cow. I really can't believe that we are back at school. Rylan 6th grade, Dylan 5th grade and Savannah 1st grade. That's right peeps all three kids are in full day school. I almost don't know what to do with myself this year I don't have to find someone to pick up one of the kids. WAHOO! I am looking forward to this year to see the success the kids accomplish. They are so awesome. I love them to pieces.

People I have spent a lot of time with lately!!

I love these girls!! So for most of the Summer I have been busy helping prepare for Girls Camp. We had such and awesome theme. "A league of their own" I was in charge of "Kick off" Yes I made those decrocations. (don't look to close!) We ended up taking them up to camp. At camp we split into teams of three and planned a whole day. We had so much fun. We had awesome crafts and fun games and a awesome testimony night. I definatley was nervous about going up to camp. I haven't gone to camp since I was in YW. So I didn't know what to expect as a leader. I was impressed that the girls got along pretty well for the most part. Let's be honest girls will be girls. Happy to report not too much DRAMA! Until the drive home. My Jeep got hit three time with throw up. Yep, a little darling that gets motion sickness rode home with me. $100 dollars later and a citrus smelling car all is well. GOOD TIMES!!

M.I.A.

I haven't had the time or the energy to keep up on blogging. Plus I don't really feel I have anything interesting to post about. I will be posting soon. We have had some events happen....So stay tuned.
