So I'm wondering just how many "summer" posts I can have?? I may need help on title ideas to get me through the summer...June has flown by. We have had a very calm and relaxing June. Lot's of time at the pool, and outside. Liz is taking a dance class from my cousin Katie and Lilly is taking piano lessons from her aunt Andrea (my sister-in-law). Both are on Thursday's and so we've formed a tradition of what I like to call "Therapy Thursday's". After dance and piano, we pile in the car and go swimming. Katie and her three girls come with us and so the seven kids play and Kate and I get to catch up and play with our kids. We have a picnic at my mom's before swimming. I've found my Thursday's at the pool to be very therapeutic.
Brandon has been looking for a job change where he can use his masters degree, he recently accepted a new position as the Director of Nursing for a home hospice company. He is really excited for this new opportunity. He will continue to teach for Weber State University as well. Good job babe!
So here are the random, fun things we've had going on:
*Liz is in dance
*Lilly is taking piano
*I threw up in the Bountiful Temple (see my other blog for the full story)
*Brandon got a burnt belly button (he says I have to put that it's my fault...not the case...)
*We got a free junky BBQ (it was found on the side of the road) that doubles as a fire pit to make s'mores
*Liz started a new hobby of painting rolly polly's
*My sun roof burst. Not cracked. Burst. Brandon was driving on the freeway when it happened. He is ok. I got a nice man to put collision wrap on it for me for now. It makes a really odd noise at high speeds. Anyone with an extra sunroof laying around?? A new one is more than the car is worth.
*I got a new purse
*I learned how to make gourmet chicken strips.
*Luke is a track star in the making
*Brandon and I found the coolest rocking chairs for $5 each at the D.I. (blog post simply about this to come...)
*Brandon and I have taken up camp outs in our back yard
*Brandon has started playing the trumpet
*We are loving our mission!
*Brandon and I got told we are "normal" (documentation pending....)
*I got my eyelashes dyed
*Laura has had multiple injuries (puncture wounds) to the same foot
*I got a new rad curling iron
*My car got backed into the last week of school. I have a rental. It's a Yaris.
*Brandon doesn't fit in the Yaris
*Brandon's car got cleaned out (pause for moment of shock)
*I have my first veggie garden and it hasn't died yet!
*Luke is Mr. Popularity (post to follow)
*We had fun swimming with cousins, aunts, uncles last Saturday. Uncle Nick introduced the kids to the movie "Mean Girls"
*Lilly and I went shopping. Always a high light!
