So July has pretty much been a crazy month for us. First, we took off down to Utah for the 4th of July weekend. This is pretty much my favorite holiday, because I know that we get to just hang out with our family and eat some good food. On the fourth I took the kids to the Murray parade with some of Joe's family, while he went to play golf.....how nice for him right! We headed off to my Grandmas house that night for a barbecue. (Let just say Grandma out did herself this year....hamburgers, hot dogs, my personal favorite, her avocado dip and chips, and who could forget the salsa to! Lots of fruit and of course, Grandmas famous rice crispy treats!! It was a blast. Grandma only lives a block away from Sugar House Park, so instead of walking over to the park, we set up camp in her driveway and have the best view out of anybody. Then we came home for 5 days and packed up the car once again for a camping trip with the Noble clan. We went to this place called Redmans. We had a great time. It is so fun to hang out with Joe's family, and my kids have a blast hanging with their cousins. Then we came home and have been on the go it seems like every day. Oh ya, forgot to throw in Joe's Birthday on the 6th. It was very low key, and since he claims he never got to have a true birthday party....let's just say me and the kids gave him one heck of a party. Landon also had a birthday. I cannot believe that he is 6 years old. Where is the time going. He will be in first grade!! He is very much into Star Wars right now, so he go alot of Star Wars Lego's and is having fun building whatever his little imagination will let him. The boys have also really taking a liking to golf, and so Joe will usually take the boys to hit golf balls at the course a couple time a week. The wheat harvest is about to hit up here in little old Burley, and so my little farmer Joe will be very busy for the next 6 weeks, so me and the kids are packing ups and heading to Utah to hang out with family and play hard for the next 2 weeks. This summer is flying by, and before you know it the kids will be back in school....which is not a bad thing:)
Camping with Joe's family. This is after a hike we took....and this is not even close to everyone in his family.
So I bought this pool for the kids, and let me just say, this is the best investment!! These kids are entertained for hours by this.......who needs a lake or community pool, when we have both right in our backyard!
This is Joe's first "real" birthday party, with balloons, hats and games.....all planned out by the boys of course. It seemed like the party was never going to end....we will see if he wants another one next year. Hey, you asked for a party, and you got a party!
Landon's birthday. This is one of his many gifts...spoiled rotten if you ask me. He loves building stuff out of Lego's, especially if it as to do with Star Wars.
