Park & Slip & Slide

I just noticed the music on my blog. I don't know how it got on there, probably from 1 of the slideshows. Just mute it like I did.



Hope these posts keep you happy for a while. It takes a very long time to upload the pics. If I would upload more often it probably wouldn't take so long in one night. I will post pics of the recital this week (I promise ;)

more random pics



other things that have happened this month...
-Harper ate a nerf sword
-I got hit by a crazy lady trying to make a u-turn right in front of me
-we noticed some water damage in the basement so now the floor is tore up and waiting to be fixed
-Jill's basement had sewer back up (she's my friend I had to share)
-Gabbi and Jered has a piano recital (pics coming)
-Syracuse days parade and fireworks
-couldn't get my sprinklers to turn off so the water filled Gabbi's window well half way with water
-Jeremy made a very quick trip to North Platte to get our appliances
-some more of our wonderful friends from NP were in Utah so we met up with them at a park
-the kids had a campout in the basement
and to think this month isn't even over yet!

Bowling

The last night we decided we really needed to let all these kids get some energy out before we blew up. So off to the bowling alley we went.

Air Force museum

one of the days we decided we should try the Air Force museum. We got everyone ready in sweatshirts and headed out the door about 3:30. It took about 20 min. to get there and then we saw "the sign"...
This Museum closes PROMPTLY at 4:30 if your vehicle is still here it will be towed.
Uh, how do we explain this to the kids. We hurried through the airplanes outside and called it good. Only the older ones knew that we didn't get to go inside.
The next day Jeremy and Andy did take the boys to see the inside and they had a great time.

June is flying by with lots of fun things...

The month started off RAINING, just about every day. Well just when we thought it was goin to start acting like summer, our BEST friends drove half way across the country to come see beautiful Utah. The 1st day they got here was great outside. The kids loved seeing each other again (it has been a year) and played outside on the playset. The second day it was a little cloudy so we decided to goto the children's museum. After that we headed to the park for lunch. Still nice outside. The the 3rd day hit and we spend the rest of their vacation inside. Winter had come back to visit us AGAIN. We still had a fantastic time and were very sad to see them go back to Missouri.
and by the way the next week was perfect golfing weather.

Garcia Graduate of 2010

Tayler graduated from Angie's Kinder Academy on May 26. He, of course, was the most handsome graduate there. He did graduate with highest honors.

Buffalo Point 1 mile/5K race

Gabbi & Jered's school hosted a 1 mile and 5K race. So of course our athletic family (HAHA) had to join in the fun. Gabbi and Tayler ran the 1 mile and did an OUTSTANDING job. Jered had a bad cough and so he wasn't able to run. He did cross the finish line though. I was honored to have run the 5K with my dad. This is his 2nd 5K and I tell you he is doing awesome. He was only a couple of minutes behind me. It was freezing (of course, it is May in Utah) but we had our own little cheering section for us as we crossed the finish line.
