TGIF

Well another week has passed and I thought I should catch up on my blog. I am very jealous today but all of my sisters are together but me. I will be sad missing Kerri. I hope to see her one of these months on one of Brad's trips to Colorado. I hope you all have fun without me. I would have been the best waterskiier there.

We of course are going waterskiing in the morning (surprise surprise). I am looking forward to it. i can actually ski now without being so sore that I can't move the next day. I keep telling Brad if he would take me every day I would be really buff. Tomorrow Cedar Hills is having their annual 24th of July celebration. It starts with a parade(which we will be missing), then there is a carnival. I am told that the firetrucks come out once an hour or so and spray everyone down. Then they end the day with a huge fireworks display that is in the field two blocks behind my house. We will have a bbq then watch the fireworks. It should be fun!

I am enjoying my new calling of Nursery coordinator. I spend two hours on my feet on Sunday running between three big nursery classes. I am the need filler. Any need the teacher has I fill it. I love the kids though they are very cute.

July is almost over and I am finally in the swing of things with my children. We always struggle with boredom. It isn't like the old days when all the kids were outside playing. You drive through my neighborhood and you do not see any kids during the day. It is so bizarre. We washed the van this morning for our fun activity. We got wet and the kids had a great time. Nathan right now is golfing with his daddy. He was so excited this was his first time hopefully he won't drive Brad crazy!

Well bye for now. I hope you all have a great weekend!

Happy 4th

Happy 4th of July to everyone and happy Canada Day. I haven't written in a while. We had a fun family reunion last week end. We went to Elberta Utah. The church has some property out there with a dairy farm. We had a great time with Brad's family. We had a talent show on Saturday night which was the 1st of July. I thought it would be kind of fun to sing O Canada since it was Canadad day. Brad joined me in the song and he did pretty well until the end when I burst into tears and he couldn't finish it. I felt so silly. I had no idea that I would have that kind of emotion. I am a true Canadian I guess.
After the reunion was over our friends from Portland came to stay with us. We had a great time with them. We took them waterskiing on the 4th and then had a bbq and some fireworks. It was a really fun day. We wish they would move back here to Utah. We miss them.
I enjoyed my first try with Skype (or skippie as Lara calls it) today. I thought it was pretty fun. I am excited about this reunion next summer. I hope everyone is as excited as I am. It will be one summer that I will be able to get my family down here in July. Well bye for now I have to get the kids to bed.
