Golf Clinics...a success

Sam loved golf clinics...He got up every day to be ready for his 8:00 class. Today was the last day and they had a fun golf tournament with prizes and lunch for everyone. Sam won a prize for getting the ball closest to the hole...he won it because he got a "Hole in One"!! I was so proud of him. He is so funny and he was quite proud of himself!

A Day at the Pool...

After we got Lyndsie off to Cheer Camp and Sam had had his golf lesson, we headed over to the Roy Pool. It is such a fun place to go...we went with the Sill's, Larsen's, and Garretts. We had a great day in the sun. It is always fun going with such great neighbors. Brinley hung out with McKenna and Sam had Colter, Wyatt, and Kobe to go have fun with.

Our House is being Repaired!

Our house is going to be okay! They have come in and dried it all out...our front room and our basement. And now they are repairing the damages inside and out. They treated it for mold and we had to evacuate for about 3 hours is all and soon things will be as good as new. They are going to replace the wood that has rotted and then re-stucco and then finish the inside. It could have been a lot worse and come to find out, it happens to a lot of people. Twelve years ago, homes with stucco were generally not done correctly, so repairs like ours are somewhat expected. Darn...I would rather go on an incredible vacation than pay for this!

Golfing...Trying out another sport

Sam loves to be outside playing sports, riding his bike, etc...I knew that he would love to take golf lessons and learn another sport. He signed up with Colter, Kobe, and Seth. He loved his first day and I am sure that he will have a great week.

Fourth of July!!! My Favorite Holiday...


Another great fourth of July! We love this holiday and we have it down on how to celebrate. We seem to do the same thing every year. Lyndsie was in the Clearfield parade, so we went there first and sat by Kim and her family. This is where we sit every year. Donna and Mike were there along with Chad and Teresa. When Lyndsie had gone by, we left that parade and hurried over to the Layton parade because Sydnie was in that one. They both did a great job. Sydnie's hands look like they hurt though from doing all of the tumbling on the asphalt! Ouch. After the parade, we have a BBQ on the side of our house by the Larsen's home. Brad and Kim, Donna and Dewey, and us all meet to enjoy each other's company. All of the kids play and have a great time. When we are all stuffed, we head on over to the Clearfield fireworks. It was a great day and I enjoy it each year!

Last Day of School


Well...Sam is done with first grade and Brin is done with fifth grade. It has been a great year for both of them. I didn't get pictures of Brinley, I thought that maybe I would embarrass her if I tried. But I did get some great ones of Sam. Mrs. Thomas was having everyone involved in a great big group hug. Sam had a great teacher and some really fun friends in his class this year... And same with Brinley.

She did it again!!!

She did it again, but this time something unexpected happened and she did not know what to do! Roxy got into the garbage again and when Lyndsie got downstairs to see what was going on...this is what she found! Roxy had stuck her head into a Corn Pops box and got her head stuck in the bag that goes inside of the box. After she got her head stuck, she was walking around and running into things. Lyndsie could not believe her and so she took some pictures of this naughty dog!!
