Oh What Do You Do In The Summertime?

When all the world is HOT? And your mom is really pregnant and doesn't want to do anything?

You read endless library books. Even better when the boys read them to each other.

You camp out in the backyard in the new tent with your dad because mom had to go in around midnight cause it was just too miserable, even with an air mattress. Really blurry photo...

You sell lemonade to the neighbor girls who first charged you to buy a stuffed animal off their table. Then you make more than what you spent on the stuffed animal because those girls were just so thirsty. Capitalism at its best..


You wash the car in your underwear.

You invite your best buds over and get soaking wet in the sprinkler. (Cheap thrills)






HAPPY SUMMER!!

Just some pictures...

We've had a busy past few days.

We attended the sealing of Greg's beautiful cousin, Michelle, in the Salt Lake Temple. She is the last of her siblings to get married. Aren't they all so gorgeous?

9 years ago Greg and I stood under this very tree for our own wedding pictures. Just try and look past the enormous belly and pretend I have a lovely wedding dress on, too.

Later that same day, Greg and I (and my bro Paul) went to Les Miserables at Capitol Theater in Salt Lake. Again, try and forget about the enormous belly. Thanks Mom and Dad for doing baby sitting duty ALL day.

Greg recently had to work a really long day at work, a double shift, so the boys and I were looking for something to do. We headed up to Salt Lake and spent a couple hours at Liberty Park. They have a small little amusement park area and we took a couple rides.




Liberty park also has this GREAT little water wading area. There are little streams of flowing water running down this little hill converging at a bigger pool at the bottom. It's mostly just meant to walk around and get your feet wet, but that rarely happens. My boys love it so much.




Then we went over to the Hogle Zoo. I didn't take many pictures. But here's a nice one with the mama Elephant and her baby. And the boys.

This morning we went to the Grand Parade in Springville celebrating "Art City Days."

Waving at the Firemen.

David and this nice elderly gentlemen became fast friends and he spent the whole parade talking to him and discussing every thing that came by. No idea who the man was, but he was friendly and really got a kick out of David.

And we were thrilled to see our pal Cosmo do a back flip on top of the van. Go Cougs!
