I think I can swim . . . I think I can't. . . .

Today was our last day of swimming lessons. After two weeks of lessons, I'd say Jayce can pretty much swim. Brandt on the other hand . . . he's getting closer. Hopefully next year he'll be a little more daring. On the last day Jayce jumped of the diving board. After he did it once, he wanted to do it over and over. Good job boys!

Our Family Vacation . . .

We just returned from a great family vacation in Utah. I know, nowhere too exciting but we love it everytime we go. We usually always stay with Jill and Scott and they have this AWESOME rec center right by their house. As you can see, my kids LOVE IT! That's basically all they want to do the whole time we're there.

This is the play center they have inside . . .



Then you go out side and they have this . . .


Dane loved the slide.


At one end of the pool you could play basketball. Jayce was into it but Brandt pretty much hung out where it was safe.




Jayce and Brandt enjoyed playing with Nick . . .


While Dane enjoyed flirting with Jadie . . .


Then we headed up to Chris and Nancy's to help celebrate Chris's big 40th. Papa Dee came out in his favorite outfit to do a little dance and sing a little song.


Then we enjoyed some real dancers . . .

(ok, notice those beautiful green trees . . . yah that's their backyard. that's utah for you)


And some not so real dancers . . .


Happy Birthday Chris. Thanks for letting us be a part of your celebration!

Fourth of July

The 4th was pretty quiet for us. We had my parents out for the weekend and since my boys freak out at the sound of fireworks, we just hung out at home and played with grandma and grandpa. We also enjoyed some yummy cupcakes grandma made.
