LAGOON



LAGOON IS SO MUCH FUN, BUT IT IS EVEN MORE FUN WITH KIDS. ALL OF THE KIDS HAD SO MUCH FUN AND NONE OF THEM ARE AFRAID OF ANYTHING. WE HAD TO BE A LITTLE TRICKY TO GET THEM ALL ON THE RIDES THAT THEY WERE ALL ABOUT 1 INCH TO SHORT FOR. SAWYER LOVED THE TIDAL WAVE, AND EVEN PUT HIS ARMS UP WHEN HIS SIDE WENT UP. IT WAS SO CUTE. WE ALSO RAN INTO NATE AND MANDY MASSEY(SIBLINGS OF MINE) WHILE WE WERE THERE AND SPENT A LITTLE TIME WITH THEM. WE SURE WISHED WE LIVED CLOSER TO LAGOON, WE WOULD GO A LOT.

Flaming Gorge Days



We had a lot of fun this year at flaming gorge days. We participated in the events and had a lot of fun. I ran the 5k in the morning, which was a good but hard experience, since I did not train at all. I have been wanting to get into running more and had some friends that were doing it so they talk me into it. They signed me up , so I had to do it. Even though I threw up at the end, I am motivated to run the 10k in August, this time I wll train and it should be better. Dennis was in the 3 on 3 b-ball tournament. he hdd a lot of fun and looks forward to doing better next year. The kids loved the fair and all the activities. Sawyer's favorite was the water park.

No more training wheels


WEll Lulu finally did it, she learned how to ride a two-wheeler. We started trying to teach her last summer, but she was not very cooperative. In fact it was a nightmear trying to teach her. She really wanted to do it, but would not participate in the learning. We tried again at the beginning of the summer and same thing. I told her the she was going to have to do it herself. Well that is what she did. Once she set her mind to it, she did it. It took about a week, but she did it all be herself.

Ryan Machine Pitch


Ryan just finished another season of base-ball. This year he graduated from t-ball into machine pitch. It was way more nerve racking for me as the mom to sit and watch him up to bat. They onl got 3 chances to hit the ball. Ryan did real well and It hin konly struck out 2 times this year. He was mostly excited that he received a trophy at the end of the season. He says that base-ball is his favorite srpot, but it seems that his favorite is always the one the he is in at the moment.
