Andy plays in a golf tournament in Price every year. Kamri, Kennedi, and I went with him this year. We arrived Friday night to the Holiday Inn. They had us in a one bed handicapped room. I had a guarantee 2 bed room. I have worked in the hotel industry and understand when you get busy that things just don’t work out properly but if you are guaranteed a 2 bed room I want it. So I had to show her my confirmation and then they finally changed us rooms. After that we went swimming and then settled down in our room. Andy got up the next morning to play golf, which he shot a 78. The girls and I went to McDonald's for breakfast and played in the play place. Then we went to Walmart for a few items and for items I didn’t need but got anyways. We waited for Andy to get done golfing then went to lunch at Ricardo’s Restaurant. It was good. We then went to the Dinosaur museum. Afterwards went back for a much needed nap. They didn’t sleep long. We got ready and went to the golf tourney steak dinner at the country club. Then went to the park and off to bed. The next day Andy went golfing again and shot 81. When he was done we went back and sure enough he got 1st place in his division. Way to go! After spending his money in the pro shop we drove home. It was a nice little vacation with the little girls.

Catching up...

Kennedi and Daddy...She is getting so chubby!
AJ, Kamri, and Anycia at AJ's soccer tournament.
Jadyn, Kamri, and Liv at seven peaks.
Kamri, Kennedi, and Daddy at seven peaks playing in the water. Kamri was checking on Kennedi making sure she was ok. She is very protective!

So I‘ve been a HUGE slacker when it comes to my blog. So I will try and catch up on what has been going on in our lives…where to begin?

The month of May…we went to St. George for Andy to run the Hurricane Half Marathon with my sister Mari and Ty. We hit Provo, only a half hour from home and Kamri vomits everywhere, all over her, all over the car, all over her car seat! So we hit a Kmart tried to clean it up and bought a bucket and air fresheners. She didn’t feel well the whole trip. But we had fun and it was warm and sunny which is what we needed.

The month of June…we had family come visit. Andy’s mom (Grandma Marylin) came from Texas and his brother’s family (Chris, Val, Leif (4), and Liv (2))came from California. They stayed with us for 2 weeks…which it rained most of the time. We went to the Kamas pool and we got Leif to go down the big slide by himself…we also got Grandma Marylin to go down who is deathly afraid of heights! She said it was so much fun. We were so proud of them both for taking the challenge. We also went to seven peaks and had a fun day at the water park.
We hung out a lot and watched the rain…

We have also been working on our backyard. We were hoping it would have been done by the time they arrived but it wasn’t. We are still working on the yard and it would probably have been done but the weather has not cooperated! Top soil is going down this weekend and sod comes Monday! WAHOO!

AJ and Anycia had teams that went to the Utah Summer Games. Both teams took the silver home. Great Job!

I am back at work now. I came back June 29th. It’s a hard transition to make but you gotta do what you gotta do!

Andy is working hard on the yard. He borrowed a tractor from our Bishop which was very helpful in moving the dirt around. AJ has been here to help too and he has been a great little helper! Andy is not a big handy man and he has dug trenches, put in and connected sprinkler pipe, drove a tractor and moved dirt, and set the sprinklers! I am so proud of him! He has done such a super job!

We got Anycia a job at the Dairy Keen. So she has been working a little and playing a little and getting into trouble a little. She now has a boyfriend named Paul who she hangs out with a lot. SCARY!

AJ has been here for 2 weeks. He has helped a lot on the yard and with the kids.

McKade is at his Great Grandparents house in Escalante. He got to stay for a week and is enjoying every moment. If he got his way he would have stayed all summer. He’s been fishing, feeding chickens, etc.

Jadyn just turned 7 on June 23rd. Coach Pitch just got over for her. Andy was her coach.

Kamri is talking a whole lot more and running around like a crazy girl. She tries to keep up with the older kids…and she does quite well. She is a very protective big sister and tries to help out with Kennedi.

Kennedi is a chunk! A cute little fatty! She is smiling and making more noises. She loves to be held and is spoiled rotten. (She is the baby of the family) She is now 12 weeks old.

So our summer is going great and everyone is healthy and happy! What more can we ask for…
