Prom for Kayli and family fun

      I can't believe this day finally came. I'm happy for Kayli but a little scared about this milestone we've reached. I'm over the moon with her prom date/boyfriend, Todd. He's impressing me at every turn. He was born in Japan and lived there the first 10 years of his life and speaks fluent Japanese. He's leaving July 8th for an LDS mission to the Japan Tokyo mission and is an overall nice guy and has been treating Kayli like a princess! Here's several photos of the start of her big night.
Kayli decorating her cousins who were enjoying the "princess" details.
Blue eyeshadow to go with Shae's cute blue shirt.
All dolled up! (McClane is oblivious to his surroundings.)
Our two book-ends/princesses!
Proud dad and daughter.
Annoyed daughter & Crazy Father!
Charlie thought this was great, Kayli DID NOT!
     Greg wasn't actually on the front porch with a shotgun when Kayli's date actually arrived but our house was full of spectators, which was probably quite intimidating for Kayli's date. He was a good sport.
Take #2, (Todd forget the corsage in the car and had to go back and come in a second time.)


The pin bent and mom/I had to rescue her. (Good thing we'd watched that YouTube video on how to pin on a boutonnière.)
Pretty!
Greg has CRAZY eyes!
    The prom is held at the Capitol building so we extended her curfew a bit. We also trust her date to bring her home on time.
      As for the rest of the week, we've had some real fun. Mainly our swim night at the Provo Rec. Center Monday night with Ben, Jackie and their girls.
Take note of Brock, this was about the only time I could catch him on camera.
Charlie was in heaven and Kayli was a great helper and allowed me to get some fun photos. Every other time I've been to this place I've been too busy chasing kids to take photos.
Ben and Kirra.
He LOVED every second of this place!
Cheesy Isaac!
Jackie and Kirra.
Mark scaling the rock wall.
Greg attempting the rock wall.
Isaac's turn.
Carter didn't have much luck on the rock wall.

The only other photo I have with Brock in it.
This is about the 4th time we've been to this pool but this was the first time I got to actually enjoy some of the activities, like the slides.
Swimming is exhausting.

He just CRASHED! I love that he's wearing his goggles.
Dress-ups!
     I'm sad to say that our time with our Aussie cousins, aunt and uncle is coming to an end. They fly out tomorrow and we're not happy about it. It's been great having them here and we sure wish Australia was a bit closer. Thank goodness for Skype and other modern technology.
