Swimming Lessons!!

Here are some fun pictures from our two weeks of swimming lessons this year!! The girls did amazing and loved every minute of it. They were so brave going off the diving board and slide I was so proud of them!! It was a great way to end their summer break before heading back to school. They will miss not going swimming every day, they learned so much.


Wow this summer has sure gone by fast!!! We have had a rough August as many of you know. It started off by me tripping and hurting my foot (it took forever to finally get feeling better) Then, poor Kynzee crashed on her motorbike into the gas line on the side of our house and broke her nose in two places. Luckily the Dr. waited for the swelling to go down before he rushed her into surgery like he had originally planned, because it is only off by a tiny bit and not enough for me to want surgery done on it that’s for sure. So her nose is healing well. Then we went off to Bear lake and ended up in the hospital with Maddy and a really bad kidney infection, that we are still battling with. They put her on an antibiotic that gave her a yeast infection (yuck) it has been very miserable. So to end all this drama Kenna got Giardia and two other parasites while at Bear lake that we didn’t discover until a week after we were home so you can imagine how well she is feeling from that. Let’s just say her little bum and belly is very sore!!! And I gave her triple the dose of one of her antibiotics on accident and it made her very sick!!! What a nice Mom!!! And to top that all off I am pretty sure I am growing a HUGE and I mean HUGE baby boy in my belly, he has really put on the pounds in just the last couple weeks. Let’s just say there is no question weather or not I am pregnant that’s for sure. And we can’t leave out Daddy…well maybe we will see him when he learns to slow down a minute or two and not be so busy. He is always going, going and we have sure missed him this month.

Bear Lake!!!

Every year my family has a little family reunion and this year I was in charge of it. My family had never been to Bear Lake and I really wanted to take them there and show them how much fun it is. We really had a blast!!! We had one day of not so good weather and we found a hot pool near by so we went there and swam instead of at the lake and the kids had just as much fun. Grandma Pasley, Aunt Donna, and cousin Daniel came as well and it turned out to be a very fun family adventure! Here are some of the tons of pictures I took!!! I don't know why I am missing pictures of some of my siblings...maybe because I didn't take any of all of them....grrrrrrrr!!!!! I am not so good at taking pictures all the time, sorry guys.

My Sister is getting Married!!!

I am so excited about this news in our family. I couldn't wait for it to happen and now that it's here I am even more excited. Rodger and Katie have been dating for exactly a year from the date he proposed and he proposed at the same place he took her on their first date. I got invited to go and it was a fun night. We went to the Mystic Theater in Pocatello and watched Aladdin and had dinner, it was fabulous!! I had never been there but I would recommend it to anyone, super fun date night. I took lots of pictures and they don't even do justice for how happy they both were. I am so happy for them. The wedding date will be sometime in February, a year after Rodger was baptized and they are getting married in the Idaho Falls Temple. Congratulations Rodger and Katie, we love you both, and we think you make the cutest happiest couple!!!!
