Please Don't Kill Me! Part 1

I will try to keep this as short and sweet as possible, but even as I type those words, I know that it is impossible! But we had way too much fun for the rest of our summer to not share all of the fun pictures. I will even throw a surprise in at the end if you make it that far!!!

We attended the Oquirrh Mountain Temple open house...the kids loved being able to walk through a "real life temple" and ask their bazillions of questions! Thanks mom for such a wonderful memory!




We went with Tad's family to Raging Waters! The kids had a blast with their cousins, but I think that the adults enjoyed it the most! Thanks Loretta for a great day!



We had a blast bowling with friends!



We headed up to Downata Hot Springs in Idaho for some more water slide fun, but on a much smaller scale! Trey and Livia loved it because they could go down the water slides all by themselves! Trey wouldn't ever come up out of the water, he would keep his head under and swim to the stairs...it was hilarious! He freaked the lifeguard out the first time! On the way home we just happened to run into the Preston Days Parade, so we pulled over and had our dinner and watched the parade!



We decided to go back the next night for the Rodeo! The kids loved every second of it from the horses and bulls to the cotton candy and popcorn! Trey stayed awake for every last second...he was glued!



Swimming lessons...two weeks of nothing but fun in the sun! We had swim lessons at 9 am and we didn't walk out of the pool most days until after two! I have little fish, what can I say! The kids had a blast with their classes and each get to skip the next step, I guess swimming all day is good for practice!




Lemonade Stands...This was hilarious. Aurianna was too embarased, so she made her sister and brother do all of the hardwork, which they didn't mind at all! Trey would hold up the sign and yell as loud as he could..."LEMONADE STAND".




Ok, This part needs a post all to itself...but oh well! This was one of our highlights of the summer! My uncle and aunt were up in Bear Lake and invited us up to go boating for the day! Our kids all just happen to be the same age and love being together! We had an absolute blast. It was my kids first time being on a boat and they loved every minute of it! Thanks Uncle Craig and Aunt Trinka for such a fun day!!!










Then came getting in the freezing cold water! The kids were all so brave. We knew that once they tried it, they would love it!!!
