As usual our summer has been busy. Right before school got out Matt and I sat down and went over the calendar for the summer. We are booked solid. So Fun! Here is a list of what we have done so far.......
1 - Cottonwood Heights Rec. Center - Pool ! We have been at the pool any free moment we have. And as good parents do we have been bribing Evan to jump off the diving board. We tried everything. We bought him Batman Lego game and said he could have it if he jumped (no deal), we told him he could basically have whatever he wanted to eat or a cool toy (no deal), then the new Transformer movie came out (that did it) he jumped off about a dozen times and also did a front flip. After that Matt had plans to get him to go off the high dive....... but to our surprise my sister took them to the pool on Tuesday and he decided since the low dive was closed he would go off the high dive so 3 times he jumped. He is crazy.
2 - Matt spent some time with long lost friends in Zion National Park doing some canyoneering. He had a nice time rappelling and swimming in the freezing cold water.
3 - I spent a couple of evenings up at Girls Camp. The weather was perfect and the girls looked like they had a good time.
4 - I went to Logan with my parents to participate in the MS Bike Ride - 75 miles to raise money for the MS Society. It was great to ride with my dad who by the way rocks. I know he took it easy on me and I really appreciate it.
5 - Rock Climbing with the kids and my nephew Chandler. We took the boys up to storm mountain to let them climb. Evan and Chandler rocked it to the top and then Collin decided he wanted to try so we got him roped up and off he went all the way to the top which left the next problem how to get him down :) He survied the trip down and had alot of fun.
Coming up we have the Oakley Rodeo and of course the 4th of July festivities. Then on to Balboa California for a week long beach trip with Matts' family. Beach, Sea World and hopefully alot of relaxing. Then on to the Spudman Triathlon in Idaho with friends and family. Did I mention we also have a boating trip, a river trip, a weekend of camping, swim lessons for Collin on Tuesday and Thursday and a 6 weeks puppy kindergarten class for Razzle? It soon will be time to get my skis tuned up for the winter season. I guess we don't realize how busy we are till we put it all down on a calendar. WE LOVE OUR BUSY SUMMER! IF WE ARE EVER HOME FOR LONGER THEN 10 MINUTES SAY HI OR WAIT TILL SEPTEMBER AND WE WILL SEE YOU THEN.
