Cub Scout Camp

Troy has been counting down the days/years till he could go to scout camp.  Tanner has gone for the last couple of years and had a blast.  He would come home and tell the other boys all about it and they would  get so excited  and couldn't wait till they could go.  Well, this year was Troy's year.  Carter gets to go next year!!!

Troy was lucky enough to have his daddy-o tag along with him!  I know that Troy LOVES having one on one time with his dad.

Look at the guy in the corner of the picture.  He looks terrified.  I love the expression on the his face!!  Guess Troy was kind of crazy with the bow shooting:)

These boys came home soooo dirty but they had HUGE smiles on their faces:)

My favorite little girl!

Can I just say I LOVE this little girl!!!

I am so LUCKY to be able to be the mom to this little one.  She is such a cutie pants.  She definitively is a keeper. She has everyone in the family wrapped around her finger and can pretty much get us to do whatever she wants.... Boy, are we going to be in trouble when she grows up:) 

Love you baby girl!

Pinewood Derby

 Troy had his very first pinewood derby.  He was so excited to work on it with his dad.  He came up with the design all by himself.  I think he had a rocket ship in mind when designing it.  He worked so hard on that cool car of his.

The only problem was his silly parents didn't read all the instructions to find out that the car could weigh up to 5 oz.  The more it weighs the faster it goes.... Who knew?!?!  His car weighed in at 3.2 oz.  Needless to say, our little man's car didn't take first place.  I think he was a little bummed.  But, we still had a fun time watching all the races.

 Good Job Troyster!

Love you Buddy!

Cousin Time = Fun Time

Bentley and Kenli came over and spent the weekend at my parent's house while Cody and Wendy went away for a fun vacation to Canada.  (btw, totally jealous of them)  Living next door to my parent's, means that we got to see them all weekend long too.  Blakley couldn't have been any happier:)  She LOVES cousin time! 

These kiddos were so funny.  They couldn't get enough of the pool and the slip-n-slid.  We would get them all dry and in new clothes just to find them wet again.  But when they were actually in their swimming suits they would stay away from the water and just play in the sandbox or on the swing set.  Silly kids!  

Lagoon

Clint's work party was held at the one and only

The party happened to land on the same day as his marathon.  So what does he do??  Runs the marathon, takes a nap and then heads to Lagoon for the rest of the day/night.  The kids were so looking forward to it.  I was still recovering from my surgery (another post) so I decided to stay home and let my dad have my ticket and go up with them.  Cause come on who loves a theme park more than my dad???

Shane, Brooks, Benson, Cody, Wendy and Bentley all went to the big shebang too!  From what I heard, everyone had a GREAT time!

Thanks

Utah Valley Marathon

He did it again!

26.2 miles

This was Clint's 2nd marathon this year.

I am so proud of him!

This was about 1/4 of a mile away from the finish line and it looks like he could run another 5 miles.  Really babe??? Can't you make it look like it was a little hard for you???

Finish Time 3:58

Clint and Brent

So glad that it is over!

Last Day of School......

Tanner's last day of 5th grade

Blakley's Photo Shoot

My darling friend, Tori took Blakley's three year pictures for me. Like always, she did a great job.  Blakley was such a little stinker bug that day.  So I was surprised that we got as many good pictures as we did.
