Summer Part B

Lots of pictures. This sums up the rest of our summer at least what the kids and I did. Glen spent a lot of time away from us. He went to scout camp for part of a week, youth conference, Venture camp with his priests and a day hike. I have to get Lilly's summer camp performance video but it is on Evelyn's camera 
 and I don't have it to get it off right now.
 Building forts in the front room.
 Playing in the rain.

 Playing in the mud.
 Making sure brother is muddy enough and if not putting more mud on him.
 Playing with cousins and wet chalk. We also washed the car.


 Decorating the new mail box. Wet chalk is so fun.
 You can also face paint with it too!

 Running away from Daryl and his "sneaky fingers."
 Ward carnival fun.
 Enjoying books in the basement with Dad.
 Swinging with Mom.
 Riding with Grandma Richins  in her fun car.
 Treasure finding at D.I.

 Visiting with extended family at D.I.
 Teasing Grandma and taking pictures of Aunt Patty taking pictures of you.
 Lucy and Aunt Patty had fun playing this picture taking game.
 Lilly after a day at summer camp came home an old woman.
 Fun at the Float preview party for the Days of '47.
 Meeting the characters of Madagascar that were by their float.

 Visiting the neighbor and her baby chicks, who kept getting bigger and bigger.
Getting beaten up at summer camp. Lilly really liked the camp and getting the stage make up done.
 Big bubbles! Thanks to Pinterest we tried home made bubbles. They worked pretty well.
 Water playgroup dates.
A girls night out to see a community theater production of Annie.
 Mowing the lawn with Dad. Lucy stands behind and holds on to Glen's neck and Daryl gets to sit on his lap. They are to big to both fit on his lap.
 Play dates with friends at a local park.
 Hanging out with Evelyn and Roberta.
Pushing his sister's buttons by testing out Lucy's new boots, which she didn't want to share.
 Swimming at Karen's pool.
 This pool has been a life saver this summer.

Barbeques with cousins.

California here we come

July 15-19  Early Monday morning we went to the Provo airport to head to John Wayne airport then down to San Diego to celebrate Larry and Janene's 50th wedding anniversary. We met up with everyone but Josh and his girlfriend, Amberlee in Provo. They left earlier and drove so they could visit her family as well. My dad is a bit John Wayne fan so we had to take a picture with The Duke at his airport for him.  Once we had our luggage, rental van and food in our bellies we had to get sand between our toes and salt water at least on our feet. We ate at a fun little place in San Clemente called Cafe Rae. It was really little. Our group of nine took up about half their seats. It was really good food and they had great hospitality.  Our next stop was the USS Midway in San Diego. Larry had talked about visiting this and the Saint Mary for a long time. It was one of the main reasons we went to San Diego. It was nice to make it happen. I am not really in to military stuff but it was...

My cup with blessings overflows

 I am trying to get back in the habit of blogging. Before I go to bed, even though I should be in bed here are blessings from this week. I don’t know it I will remember them all there were so many.  Being home to attend church with our ward.  Talks from two sister in our ward, Louisa Jones who is a brand new young woman and Holly Draney who is the Primary President, on Sister Kristin Yee’s conference talk, that complimented each other well.  They reminded me that God is in the details and even when mistakes are made he can use it to help us learn and bless us. Louisa talked about how she was mad when her parents decided they should move a few years ago but Heavely Father has made it work out. Holly brought up the definitions of the words possibility and joy. She also talked about repairing quilts that had things happen to them. Also a talk from Matt Reeves about the power of the priesthood and how it has blessed his life and has preserved his life.  A great less...

Conversations with Lucy

Lucy-" Mom, Do you know what you can't do?" Mom-"No, what?" Lucy-" You can't put root beer in the microwave. You can't put it in the microwave or else it will explode." Mom- " Is that right?" Lucy- " Yeah, and do you know what else you can't do, you can't put candy in the microwave or else it will explode too. Yeah!"
