We have been going to swim meets about 2 times a week we have tons of clips from the flip and very little pictures. But we are proud parents of two fast swimmers. Emma moved up this year to 9-10 and swimming 50 yards (Yikes) but she has improved each week and has made a few "A" times. We were worried she would struggle but this she has NOT done! Thayne has become a 25 yard almost no breather! He has taken off time every week. Who would of known he LOVES swimming and is getting really good at it. Here are a few pictures of our families life at the swim meets!
We had to say good bye the to Shelby this was not the best part of our month. It was probably the hardest thing I ever had to do! The whole family was sad, mad, depressed and we all kind of just really miss our dog! She was the best dog ever and we think about her everyday. Carissa got to go to EFY in Provo this year. So she headed up a few days early and spent some time with the Hill Family! Too much fun was had and lots of pictures with BOYS! I think i might die, I left them out and just put a few of the girls.
We spent a week at Rucker Lake, this year we had tons of bugs and it was really warm so we spent lots of time in the water. It was wonderful, girls camp always is! Carissa and Bob went on a 30 mile hike which took them to 3 lakes and lots of snow. Addie went her first overnight hike to Blue lake with all her crazy 2nd year girls. And I stayed in Camp and ran the fun stuff we did all week. When I was a girl I loved camp and now as the Mom I still do. Those girls make me want to be better. We had a fun month we still have our anniversary in a few days and 3 more swim meets to go! Minus missing Shelby we had a busy fun month of July. Now on to August and school. I hope next month slows down I don't want the kids to go back to school yet.
Addie says " No one ever tells me anything" Emma says " me too, but all you have to do is listen to Mom talk on the phone and then you'll know everything!"
Aug 2010 "night before school starts" Carissa says " I need to go to Long's so I can get a Tide pen and Mascra then I will feel prepared for tomorrow"
While watching a few minutes of Dancing with the Stars Emma said "Oh Ozzy OSMOUND is on this show?"
The Amazing Incredible Kid! This morning before school I asked Thayne to put his sheets in the washing machine he did...I went out to start the wash and it was already going ...he put soap in and started it WOW! My son knows how do the wash at 4.8 years old.I LOVE THIS!
Thayne said in his Primary class today March 29, 2009 " we are learning about Catepillars & Butterflies in school they start in Raccoons!"
Carissa said at age 2 & a half May 5,1998 At preschool with Mrs. Larson ...Carissa found a baby doll laying on the floor. She yelled,"She's a naked J-Bird!". I told her we should put some clothes on her. She put everything on the doll; A diaper, onesie, & Clothes!
Emma says "My husband he's going to ...Be STRONG just like Dad!"
"When I have a boy I'm going to name him Payton "BOB"...and then whatever my husbands last name is!" said Emma on the way home from church
Addison said "Mom, today during P.E. I figured something out if boys don't wear deodorant they smell like rotten onions!"
Emma says while doing the dishes," Mom we really need to sell some of these forks we have TOO MANY!"
