Fun and sleep

     This past week has been fun for the kids. We've made two trips to the local waterpark. Unfortunately I do not have photos to prove it because when I'm there I don't usually have any kind of camera with me. I do, however, have photos of some of the kids playing in the backyard. First they had water going down our slide and then they moved to a tarp on the grass and just had an overall great time. Charlie even decided to join in.

Brock, with Charlie, Caden & Cole (neighbor friends) cheering him on.

McClane's turn.

They slid way past the tarp.

This was a pretty fun home made slip n slide.

Charlie didn't quite know how it worked but she loved trying her own thing.

     McClane also had a little cavity to be filled this week at the dentist and I snapped a picture of him while he was waiting at the dentist and playing with the train set because it's about his favorite thing to do when he's at the dentist.

He loves this little wooden train set!

     Then I was feeling a little sad about losing our family pet and decided it was time I ventured down to the local "puppy barn" with Kayli just to take a look at all the cute puppies to ease my sadness. Don't worry we left all the puppies there and I really did feel better after cuddling a few cute puppies.

     This is just one of the adorable puppies they had. Maybe after Kayli's Heritage Tours trip next month we will discuss getting a new dog. I thought we would wait a lot longer like until next spring but it just feels weird out back without a dog nearby.

     And last but not least here are a couple of cute photos of Charlie sleeping.

I almost hated to wake them.

    This coming week the boys, Mark and Isaac, will be attending our wards youth conference/"Zions Camp" down at Lake Powell on two massive houseboats along with 95 other youth from our ward. I'm sure they'll have the time of their life. And it's incredible to believe that the Fourth of July is next weekend. We're planning on having our annual neighborhood sidewalk of fire to celebrate our nation's birth, which is always fun. And we get to enjoy another week of record high temperatures and I'm not complaining.
