Surfing!!

We went boating the other night for a few hours and we had great water. Spencer got to ski and we did some surfing. We were even able to get George out there and he did great. He was not so sure about the temperature of the water but be was a good sport when he got up on the surf board. I don't think Spencer could be any prouder of Georgie!!

You can not see it very well but George is posing with his arms out like surfers do!

4th of July

So this year was a lot of fun. We went to Mimi's Cafe for breakfast with my family and then went to the Kaysville Parade. It was actually quite good this year there were 5 or 6 real floats, kinda fun. George and Scarlet loved it and the weather was fantastic, you can not beat constant cloud cover during a parade!! Scarlet loved to point out the horses and wave at the princesses as they passed in convertibles. George was loving the Helicopter that flew over a few times and he liked watching the bands go by. He does a great air trumpet and trombone.

I don't know why we continue to invite him!?!

Then we had a BBQ at out house with the Little's. It was a lot of fun to be able to finally have a back yard to play in. We had a bounce house set up for the kiddies and Spencer was able to set up his volleyball court. We ate and played volleyball till dark then watched some good fireworks and called it a night. I think the 4th is my favorite Holiday because it is so relaxed and just full of fun stuff!! Can't beat it, till next year America it was fun one this year!

Boating

We went to Jordanell to take the boat out for the first time this year. It can be interesting what happens the first time out. Last year the boat was chugging because it was out of transmission fluid and this year the only problem was that the battery was dead. Good thing we have the portable jumper box. Otherwise we would have just floated on the lake. George and Scarlet loved it. We did some tubing and whenever Spencer's sister would scream Scarlet would get so worried about her. When they fell off too she had to make sure she could see them in the water to make sure they were OK. And she would ask them that "Okay??" She did have a little accident on the boat, when she gets busy she does not think about going potty. Spencer's brother Austin was so grossed out, he is quite squeamish. Here are a few good picts from the outing.

Scarlet showing us where he bum is, after her accident, we left her Jammies in the car.

Gotta Love Summer!!

I am so happy that summer is here, finally, the rain is done and sickness is gone. Well it should be. Just so happy to announce that George has Pneumonia for the 4th time since October!?! I am ready to move to a deserted Island and not have any more human contact so I don't have to deal with Mr Fever. We are dealing with it here at home so we don't have to get all the other stuff that is going around in the Hospital so I guess there is an up side to this!! But a bit of good news our little Scarloo is potty trained and yesterday she made it through a whole day with the same pretties(what she calls underwear) on. Kinda weird to not have anyone in diapers till October.

My Pneumonia boy aka Mr. Fever!!

My big potty trained girl!!

Just a cute picture of the kiddies before Church around Easter.

Race for MLD

This last weekend we were able to participate in a race to support MLD. Our friends little girl who is a month younger than George has it. Her parents set up this foundation to raise money for research on this fatal disease. It was a 5K in Bountiful and there was a raffle drawing with great prises and even giving away a Jeep. It was a lot of fun to be able to support them and can't wait till next year. This is a very sad disease if you want more information on it you can go to www.teamgive.org or to just check out his organization. There is also www.elizaswish.org that is their daughters website that has a place to donate books to the Make a Wish Foundation. Hope to see you all there next year!!


It was such a long race that Spencer needed to wear his wrist bands!?!

Ruby

Ruby is here and there will be more pictures to follow but I only had my phone. I am sure Randi will post better ones but just wanted to get the word out. Ruby and Randi are doing great!!

Oh my Scarlooloo!!

When you have a girl named Scarlet and she has a few spare unattended minutes to herself there can be horrible consequences. I think the brunt of the unattended minutes have been focused on the couch. Which have given us great memories to remember. This morning was one of my favorites. Spencer came out to find her with my bottle of oil for my hair making a great design on my couch. Which is great because on the other side is her art work with a black pen, so we either get to look at oil marks or pen drawings, I can't decide what I like more.

The Culprit!!

The Victim!!

The Pen Drawing!!

So needless to say I am asking for some help. If anyone knows of someone getting rid of a couch that is in decent shape that we could take off their hands please let me know. And if anyone would like a girl named Scarlet we can arrange that too!!!

Just another fun thing she did, found some poster paint, AKA "Pretties" and put on some lips. It was a good thing it was labeled non-toxic!!!
