The Rest of June!

Justin took his FFA Officers camping on Ferron Mountain.  The boys found this hut someone made, and took some pretty good pictures of it. 


 Our back door, that had been on back order for weeks finally came!
 Drywall was put up super fast!
 Helping tend water in the farm we are leasing this year! It's hard work!



 Textured and ready to paint!
 On our way to Tremonton for the 3rd time in a month!  I think the kids faces tells all!   Luckily they are pretty good passengers! 
 We decided to have a girls night, before Kimberly left on her mission.  Alicia had a dance camp she had to be at and we missed her!  We went and ate at Olive Garden, and all ordered a dessert to share.  We decided we wanted to go line-dancing for one last thing, so we asked around and found a billiards club that supposedly did line dancing.   Well they wouldn't let us in since Kim was underage!  We ended up at the jump zone and had a really fun time!  We laughed so hard, and burned all those calories from dinner :)




 That next day we went and floated down the Bear River. We planned on a going a long way, but the river was low and super slow.  After and hour and a half of floating we could still see where we had gotten in at, so we hopped out and walked back to the car! It was a fun time though! 



 That night we headed down to Ogden to the Drive-In.  We watched Monsters University and Epic. The boys stayed awake through the entire thing, it didn't get over until 1:30!   We loved the drive-in and can't wait to go back!


 Swayzie loves her cereal, and crazy morning hair!



 I was able to go to Girls Camp this year.   We only had a few girls show up but we had a blast and made a lot of fun memories! It was super hot, but tons of fun. 
 When I got home from camp stucco was finished!! I love how it turned out!
 All our shelving was also installed.

Mason had his final gymnastics review.  He did such a good job, and was one of the only kids that knew the entire routine without missing a beat. He also was the best at his head stands and held it a lot longer than anyone else! 


 After the review we played outside while dad went to a Stock Show meeting. 


 They workers got the duct work in for the Geothermal System.  Going to be so nice to have heat and air and not have any hassle with it all.
 Swayzie had her 18 month check up.  She is doing great, and her doctor is still saying she is going to be really tall!!  She ended up having to get 5 shots because we missed one somewhere. 




 We had baseball 4 nights a week. Swayzie learned to entertain herself really fast!



 Mason decided to dress like a cowboy to Justin's FFA Banquet.  We had a lot of fun, and the food was yummy!

 Justin and I decided to do the Electrical.  Dean and Travis Allen helped guide us, and then we did all the work.  Okay, Justin did the work, and I made sure the boxes and lights were where we wanted them.  Thanks babe!

 My dad draws a picture for each person's birthday.  This is the one that he drew this year.  I love it!  
 Easton and Mason earned their Liberty Kids Awards again this year.  They have requirements and hours of service.  This is their second year receiving it!
 Easton's Baseball team and Coach Tanney.   Justin wasn't there because he went on Sr. Sluf with the High School to Lagoon.
 Justin and I helped usher graduation.  It was a little rough, because we both love this group of kids. Although, I'm pretty sure we will see them often, because they love us so much too!!! :)
 Swayzie playing with friends!!
 The day after school got out, we went up to Tremonton to go through the temple with Kimberly.  She went through the Brigham City Temple.  It is brand new so that was really exciting.  It was amazing and the spirit was so strong.  I loved it!! 

 That Monday we went and played in the Bear River.  Everyone had a blast tubing, kayaking, and messing around!




We've been spending so many hours at the house.  The kids find many ways to entertain themselves!


 I finally broke down and decided to cut Swayzie's hair.  It was so straggly looking when it was down. We ended up cutting about 4 inches off it, but it looks so good now!   


Mason and his team! They ended up taking 1st place (unofficially).  They were quite the hitters!
 Poor Swayzie ended up burning her foot on the fourwheeler.  I felt bad because her foot slipped and I didn't realize it until it was too late. I ran her home and put some oils on it, and within an hour, she wasn't complaining at all. It blistered really good and is still growing new skin in. 
 Easton's team did the unthinkable and took 2nd! It was a crazy whirl of games, but they did such an amazing job.  I can't believe how much they have improved in a few weeks.  Easton is practicing a lot because he wants to pitch next year.  


 Results of Shopping for Aunt Dana's Family to come!!!   Good thing we drove my car and not my moms!!! 
 Finished wiring all the recessed lighting.  I may have went overboard but I didn't want our house to be dark. I hate not being able to see things!!!  ( I did wire all these lights by myself!)

 Kids bath tub installed
 Master Bath soaker tub installed.
 Insulation put in! 
 A huge blow snake my dad found. It had been hanging in the yard, just hadn't been able to catch it yet! 
 While Tim, Dana, Neil, Scott, and Brian where here we went crawdadding at Huntington Lake.  It was so much fun, and the weather was amazing.   



We had such a blast with all of them!  It had been 10 years since we saw Neil, 7 since Brian, and 5 since Scott.  Definitely over due!!  We spent many late nights talking, laughing, and playing games. 
1st layer for stucco done

We went up this weekend for Kyle and Breanna's wedding. It was a blast, but I didn't take any pictures :(  We danced tons, and ate tons.  It was good company and we all had a good time! 


 Just last week they got the entire house sheet rocked!!!  Can't believe how quick the workers are!




 Then just today, they got the primer layer done on the stucco and everything rocked in!!! It looks so good, can't believe how fast it's going! 

 I'm so in love with the fire place!!!
