Birthday Fun!
The day before my birthday I ran 10 miles. On my birthday, Luke had to run 10 miles so I got up and biked next to him. After that we went to breakfast with the kids then hit the local farmer's market that they have every Saturday but this was our first. It was a lot of fun with a live band and lots of good stuff to look at. That afternoon I got the best gift...Luke took the kids swimming while I took a 2 hour, uninterrupted nap followed by a clean house! It was awesome! That evening I met up with my sister Jill and her family in SLC. We played in the water at Gateway Mall, and then rode tracks to Temple Square. It was a lot of fun. Here are some photos from the day!
Jaylee and her cousin Katie at Temple Square. They were holding hands and having a great time together.
Oliver was having so much fun in the water. He was soaked! He had found an empty paper cup and started putting it upside down on top of the water holes. When the water would shoot out it would send the cup into the air and he would catch it. It was very entertaining to watch him. He's such a cute kid!
Mandy's Baby Shower
We're so excited for Mandy to have her baby girl the end of August. She is Luke's brother's wife (Eli's wife). We had a family baby shower for her. It was fun to see everyone.
Amy (sister-in-law) was in charge of games and did a great job. One of the games was to paint a onsie. At the end, Mandy chose her favorite and the winner got a prize. Melissa was the winner and the onsie was adorable. Mandy got to take home several cute shirts!
I was in charge of the party favor! It turned out really cute. Everyone got to fill up a gift bag of 10 different pink candies and take a cupcake ball. It was fun!
Around the houseWith all of the running and working out Luke has been doing, his muscles have been really tight. He has had the kids stretching him out. Oliver is always the first to offer to help his dad out. Luke is his hero!
Baseball Game with Friends!
We went to a baseball game with a group of friends. It was a lot of fun! I wish I had gotten a picture of the Geddes family. My friend is 7 months pregnant and volunteered to run the bases during a break in the game. So far she holds the record for the fastest time running around...even pregnant! She's such a great sport and so fun to be with! The Lorz family. We love these little twin boys! Their dad has been staying in SLC during the week for work and only coming home on the weekends so we thought it would be fun to take the twins to the game and meet up with their dad.
These are the kids at the park after the parade. There are have lots of food, activities, and friends!Sabree with a few of her Fillmore friends. We miss everyone!
It was a full day...parade, park activities, sprinklers, Grandparents, Barbecue and of course the fireworks!
Pickleville PlayhouseWe have some of the greatest friends here! We were invited by our friends to Bear Lake to stay in their cabin at the Pickleville Playhouse. We had soooo much fun. After a little hanging out after we got there we had dinner, played and then saw the show Joseph and the Technicolor Dream Coat. It was so good! Jaylee was just as entertaining as the show. She loved it! I think she thought we were going to watch a movie at a theater so when she saw live people singing and dancing she was shocked and so excited! It was a blast. That night we did fireworks.
Oliver, Carter, Tanner and Sabree. Oliver has become such good friends with Tanner and Carter. We love the Davis boys! They are moving, only 5 minutes away, but it is sad that they won't be in our same neighborhood. Regardless of where they move, we have become great friends with the family and love the time that we get to spend with them!
Local Transit System
One of the best things about kids is that they are usually pretty easy to entertain. One day we decided to take the kids on a free bus ride by our local transit system. We rode the bus to the mall where they played on the toys there, then we walked across the street to Wendy's, then caught the bus back home. BLAST!
Once again, Jaylee was so entertaining. She was giddy the whole time! Who knew that a bus ride would be so exciting!
The Lorz twins love Oliver and he loves that they love him!
Extreme Air Sports is a gym with lots of trampoline's, foam pits, rock climbing wall, and bouncy gym mats. It was sooo much fun!One week with 7!
My sister-in-law was the assistant girls camp director for her ward this year and had to go to girl's camp for a week. Since my brother had just gotten a new job, he couldn't take the week off of work so they needed a little bit of extra help. That's where I came in. They have 4 kids and I brought my 3 so I had 7 kids for the week. It was tiring but tons of fun! We went swimming one day, and Extreme Air Sports another day.

Max, Zak and Sabree on the rock climbing wall. They were doing back flips from the top! It was CRAZY!
This picture is one of my favorites. Jaylee always gears up for her runs. This is her pose right before she goes!
Lots of Pool!
We've been spending lots of time at the pool. Oliver and Jaylee have improved so much in their swimming skills.
