My Little Fishes

One hour a day, Monday through Friday, eight weeks, 4 Swim Meets = Summer Swim Team

This year was the first time all three kids participated. (insert me doing a happy dance!)

And John received Heat Winner for boys his age in his heat for freestyle!

 Way to go buddy!


Ashley did great starting off the block this year!

And Jessica tackled 100 meters (4 laps) in breaststroke and freestyle.

We are so proud of our little fishes!

Summer Fun

It is the end of July. We have 3 weeks until school starts again. So I thought I'd share a few of our highlights from the summer.

John and I both got to experience Cub Scout Day Camp for the first time.

 He loved every minute of it! I survived!

I got to throw a baby shower for my friend Christy. It has been a long time since I've thrown a baby shower. It was so much fun getting our friends together.

Isn't Christy cute! She was just about ready to POP!



Mark and I got to spend one evening at Girls Camp for Bishopric night. It made the week with Jessica gone seem not as long knowing we got to see her a little sooner. Their theme was Defend Your Destiny.


The kids convinced us we needed to get up way to early on a Holiday to go to the Balloon Festival.

We got to see a few balloons fill up before they announced it was too windy and none of them would take off.


I made my annual trip to Chicago in July for the Pampered Chef National Conference. It was a wonderful trip and got to end all the fabulous training by going to see Beauty and The Beast with my beautiful friends.

And the kids and I have had a lot of trips to Seven Peaks Water Park and Trafalga Fun Centers thanks to our Pass of All Passes. Sorry, no pictures!

We are having fun and looking forward to a few more weeks of fun!

Baptism Day!

The highlight of summer 2011 has been John's Baptism. We are so proud of the good choices he has made in his life. My handsome boys getting ready for the big event.



He was so excited!


And we were glad the whole family could be there. Jessica got home just in time that morning from Girls Camp!
