4th and a week!

Every year we head up to Eaglewood on the 3rd for the awesome firework show. It is one of my favorite things to do all year! We love to hang out right by the band and let the kids dance and party all night. It is always fun to see old friends although it is getting really, really crowded that we don't walk around too much anymore.

Our cute little Bailey, the girls like taking turns holding her!

We don't have big plans on the 4th. We had some good dinner at Pei Wei's with the Beckstrands and then Jamon's family came down to hang out for awhile. We had a blast with the "sprinklers" and Kira calls them!

On Mon we went with the Fraziers up Muller Park Canyon.

Cute little girls Mylie and Kira.

Trying to get all the kids looking the same face and a smile all at the same time is quite a chore!

Tuesday was Stake Lagoon Day!

We meet up with Mo and boys and had a great time. The kids cooled off in the fountains because Rattlesnake Rapids line was too long! I didn't really want them getting so wet because I thought I would hear complaining the rest of the time. It turned out ok and they dried pretty quick.

Our last ride was the Bat which I lost my phone on and they still haven't found it. (sorry to those who have text or called I'm really not ignoring you!)

Wed. we went to the Bees game with my Mom's work. Kaelyn and Jada brought there new Baseball mitts but I think the had more fun being the cheer leaders. At one point they had our whole section chanting Go Bees Go! Everyone thought they were pretty funny!

Thur. night at Pineview. We finally got to go with Curt to the lake! Big Dave came and brought his little puppies Bart and Ruby. The girls were in heaven they each got to have their own. Plus they wore these cute little life jackets that had a handle on top...so they keep carrying them around it was so funny.

Friday was my Mom's Birthday so back up to Pineview we went. We got her and Steve this new tube, the kids loved it and fit them all! I think Brant looks like a big Monkey in the middle.

Here is the Fearsome 5! Kirstens first trip to the lake! She is such a doll and a great baby too! (Brants hand is blocking her but this was the best picture I had of all of them)

Jada tried to talk me into taking her "Tummy Boarding" AKA Knee boarding. I thought it was way to cold and didn't want to get wet again before we left so she sweet talked Uncle Brant into taking her, Kaelyn ended up Tummy Boarding as well.

Sat. was the Farmington Parade. We look forward to this parade because it isn't a big huge crazy parade and the girls got to be on the Legacy Dance Float. At the very end you would have thought the girls on the float were super famous because all the parents were chasing after it taking pictures, just like the Paparazzi!

Jada's skinned up knee from chasing one of the cars throwing cool stuff.

Yeah we got a new Guitar!

After the Parade we hurried to a Birthday Party, what a fun week!

June

Looks like my post are becoming month to month! Can summer get any more busy??

(don't answer that!)

On the evening of the 27th Jada got to go on the field at the ReAL soccer game. Mountain America sponsored Jada's soccer team the Pink Turtles. They players came out and held the girls hands as they walked on the field. Jada got to hold the Goal Keepers hand of the Canada team FREI?? He asked her what her name was, she thought that was pretty cool! It was fun to watch them and fun to be at the game. Rio Tinto Stadium is so much fun!

Pink Turtles plus a couple extra!

ReAL won the game! 3 - 0

Earlier in the day we had a dance performance at Raging Waters. It was Kira's first dance and she was so excited. We also did a mom and daughter dance that turned out way cute! We danced to Dancing Queen which is Jada's new favorite song. (I didn't get my pictures in the right order!)

Striking her pose!

Kira's little dance group! They did awesome!

Jada and Kaelyn got to announce Kira and Kelsie's dance!

SWIMMING, SWIMMING and MORE SWIMMING!

Swim lessons! Thanks Jen! You are the BEST!

Jada and Kae can now swim with out help!

Kira struggled. She didn't really want to get her face in the water! Guess we will keep working with her!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JADA!!

The BIG 5!!!

I woke Jada up early to go to her Dr. App. (I know mean MOM!). I said Jada wake up it's your birthday you are 5 now! She looked down at herself and said, "It doesn't look like it"! Too funny she thinks age goes by size. She was measuring up to everyone that day.
