Summer Catch Up

May:
 My parents came to visit. It was a rare occasion that we didn't have to celebrate a wedding, birthday, Christmas, etc. We were able to just live our life and have some help and fun along the way. Looking forward to more visits like that.  Jeff and Jill were also here that week and it was fun to spend time with lots of family. So if my kids act spoiled--now you know why!
First stop: Burger King
We tried and tried to get a video of them "boosting" each other up. It was sweet and hilarious
What's better than your gpa teaching you how to dunk a tennis ball?
This was their first attempt to swim this summer. It was the first time Rachel didn't turn blue from being so cold. They also took swimming lessons at the Y this summer. And I'm sad to realize that I don't have any pictures from that. But they LOVED it! They were timid at first, but now are complete fish and prefer to swim under water!

What do you do in Vegas on a hot day? Go the the mall for ice cream... :)








When it gets really hot-go up to the mountains for hot chocolate and s'mores--in the snow!

Yes, Adam is wearing his sister's pink hat.
Not pictured is the mother's day present my mom and I gave ourselves: a night in a hotel and the Beatles Love show.  Ryan would never have gone with me to see it, but Mom and I had a great time!


Much more to come...

Are you bringing swimsuits this trip, because I kind of want to see your kids swim.
