This summer we have celebrated birthday after birthday. A favorite is always homemade ice cream, especially when you have big boys to turn the crank on the old timer ice cream maker. Several of the neighbors came by to investigate the happenings and joined us for the spoils.
We also celebrated my dad's 70th birthday. Happy Birthday DAD!
We finally completed another HUGE summer project by getting the trampoline in the ground. Both Mike and I spent many hot, long hours digging. But the kids are loving it as you can see.
I have had a great summer being a Grandma or Mamah as I am known. I got to spend a few days in Vegas and tended Madison, Jordan and Joshua while Beth and Justin took a little time away to celebrate their anniversary. We had fun playing and swimming. I also got to tend Boston while Arianne and Dustin took time to celebrate their anniversary as well. Pretty smart that they all got married in the summer so I can tend. Boston loved the little pool. Chris and Maren couldn't resist trying out their new swim goggles!
Rachelle is off to Cedar City working for the Utah Shakespearean Festival for the summer. She will be attending SUU in the fall. Me and my friend Marla went to visit her for a weekend and see three of the plays. We had a great time.
Maren has excitedly taken over Rachelle's larger room and redecorated.
