The Month of June!

So after my last post the kids broke the power to our computer. It was on its last leg before and they sent it over the edge, as a result I have been very out of touch from the cyber world. It was nice for a couple of days, but then it was just annoying. Anyway, Ryan ordered a new one off of ebay and it finally arrived so I am back in business. Here is a little of what we have been up to....

Fabulous Weekend
This past weekend we went to Cedar City for a reunion with our friends from dental school. Our friends the Ludlow's were so kind to house us all in their new beautiful home. We got their Friday morning and it took about 5 minutes for the girls to pick right up where they left off. They played their little hearts out, I barely saw them the whole weekend. The guys went out to lunch and then us ladies headed out when they got back. I was excited to get a diet coke from the drive up at the gas station. Awesome!! I must find one of these in my town. We also hit Roberts, the very best craft store around, wish I had one by me. Later that night we headed to St. George to the Tuacahn theatre to see The Sound of Music. It was so good, they always do such a great job. The girls loved it and Logan didn't make a peep the whole time so it worked out well. It was pretty hot but it just brought back memories of those great Vegas summers.

Some cool snow cones were perfect on the hot summer night

Ludlow's live on the golf course so the guys went to check it out on Saturday. They came and picked up the kids on the 16th hole for a ride in the golf cart, the girls loved being on the course I am really going to start pushing this. Ryan needs to get them going!!! The girls hung out at the house in the theatre room watching episodes of the Office. It was great to just chill in comfy chairs and laugh at that hilarious show. When the guys got back we headed out for a little more shopping. Natalie was concerned that Cedar didn't have any where we would want to shop, but it did, and it was just fun to go shopping with some of your best friends. That night we had a bbq and b-day party for Sarah. She hit the big 30 this year, we had 3 dessert options which is totally necessary on your 30th b-day. I am glad we were able to celebrate with her.

Sweet Theatre Room!!!
My kids are dying for one of these now, they thought it was the coolest thing ever.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARAH!
(Thanks Jon and Nat for the yummy b-day treats)!

Logan was one month old while we were there. He did so good on his first major outing. There have been 3 new babies added to the group this year.

Here is a photo of Audrey, Max and Logan

Sunday we enjoyed some awesome buttermilk syrup for breakfast and then hit church. After we just hung out and relaxed. It was great. My kids had so much fun they did not want to leave they started crying when it was time to go. They ask me everyday when we can go back. It was such a great a time. Thanks so much to the Ludlow's for great food, fun and entertainment. A perfect summer vacation. Thanks again guys!!!

Thanks girls we had a blast!

Other stuff :

We took Logan to church for the first time of Father's Day. He did great and we actually made it sort of on time. The 8 a.m. thing is going to be a bit a of challenge but for week #1 it wasn't too bad. The girls had fun celebrating Father's Day with Ryan. He is a great dad and they are very lucky to have him and his mellowness, it is needed, I can be a little "non mellow."

A fairly decent family photo!

Summer Activities

The girls also took swimming lessons for 2 weeks at our local water park. They both did a great job and have become pretty good swimmers. Its nice because at the end of their lessons they get a free pass to the water park. We are looking forward to using those.

Mule Days

The first weekend in June, the town of Star had their annual celebration and parade. Since Ryan works for a practice in Star he had to take part. The girls thought it was pretty cool to be in the parade. They were able to be princesses, throw candy and blow bubbles. It was a little chilly for a June parade, but not too bad. It was fun to watch them go by and throw candy and toothbrushes. It is a great little community and we had fun being a part of their festivities.

Fun at the Park
One of our parks down town as this pretty cool water fountain, the girls thought it was fun to run around it feel the mist. They also loved picking flowers and putting them in their hair and mine. it was a fun way to spend a summer day.
