Did you wonder if I would ever blog again?

Here is just a quick rundown of a few things we did this summer. There is too many pics to upload so I did the short version.


We went to the zoo!


Dar and Sara

We visited cousins for a couple days. Marks sister and Husband were so much fun. I absolutely love them to death!

We went to Temple Square... I dont ever realize how many there are of us!

We had three kids do animals for the fair this year!

First day of school.
Brooklin in 7th, Caden 5th, Daisy 3rd, Aspen 2nd and Gemma Goo in 1st. Yep that means I only have three boys home with me. My life is EASY!!
Oh ya....and we looked at a billion homes and a million house plans. We hope to start building in October. Yes...Im totally excited :D

Four of the kids took part in a community play here in town and they had so much fun doing it. Daisy, Aspen and Gemma were orphans and Caden was President Roosevelt. It took up alot of our time in June and I was glad to have it come to an end, but they did an awesome job in it!



June

Random pics of things we have done this month so far. The end of May Brooklin had her final Rising Stars concert, which is always a great show whether you have kids in it or not.


Gemma is still busy being a little mother to the boys. She is a great help. She is also getting that 'I can do it' attitude and stomps really good when she doesnt get her way.

Daisy got herself a new puppy which she is thrilled to have. It gives her alot more jobs, like picking up the yard after the pup drags the muck boots all over ;)



Hunter is outside ALL the time and is oving ife as you can tell.

Aspen did a great job in her school program. She loved school and did a really good job this year.

Everyone at Uncle Scott and Aunt Oleta's graveside (Marks brother and sister in law)

We have been playing a little. Trying to take some family time in between Marks tests. He is officially a Pharmacist in Idaho and we find out in a couple days if he passed for Utah as well.






Daisy is still playing the piano and has such a talent for it. She taught herself a couple new songs just so she could play the prelude song in Primary.



Caden and his 4H Bucket Calf.

I cant seem to keep Hunter out of the dirt. Most times he is up and out of the house before I can even wake up.

Marks Graduation

Mark finally Graduated and we could not be any more happy!! I took the kids up so they could see their Dad finally reach his goal. Im not sure the people around us were happy, due to all the screaming, whining, and yelling going on from our section with two little tired boys, not to mention the flying pacifiers and fruit snacks!! It really was an amazing day!! After we got home we had Mark open his graduation gift from the kids (they insisted that he needed a nail gun!). I then continued with the lies that I had started at the beginning of the week to surprise him with a graduation party. I told him we had to go help a friend set up for a mothers day party she was throwing for her daughters! So I took the kids and he stayed behind to sleep off the excitement of the day. I went down and got the gym all decorated with the kids and went home an hour later to make the plan happen. I told him I had to leave the kids there to help my friend and we had to pick them and a babysitter up and we were heading out for a hot date! He took his time getting ready, which was fine because we needed to let people get there with the food. Once we got down there to 'get the kids picked up' he had about 30-40 people yelling "SURPRISE"! He was so surprised, I think I even made him cry ;) (thats good for Mark). We had so many friends and family members come out to congratulate and support Mark. It was such a good time! A day we will never forget! Way to go babe!
