JULY

July 2009

July has flown by. On the Fourth of July we were so excited to stay home since we had been gone the previous 3 weekends. We bought fireworks and lit them in the street. The boys loved them and since then they take our lighter out back to do fireworks. Luckily the lighter is childproof.

The next week I took the boys to Layton to see Grandma and Grandpa Hamilton. The boys played outside pretty much all day. They helped drive the tractor and the lawn mower. They rode the horses and played with Aunt Cari's dog Dudley.

We went to the Clearfield Aquatic center and had a great time going down the slide and Cooper was brave and wanted to jump off the diving board. FYI the diving board is probably 3 feet above the water and then he had to swim to the side. The lifegaurds were on full alert when it was his turn. He loved it and jumped 3 times. Needless to say I was a very proud mom. Thank you Las Vegas Swimg Academy for teaching him to swim.

When Chet flew up we went to Lagoon and had a great time on all the rides.

The four of us were there for about 6 hours then we took the boys to Grandma and Grandpa's so Chet and I could ride the big rides.

Chet and I love rollercoasters so we were super excited that the boys also liked the rollercoasters. Only about 12 more inches until they can go on the big rides with us.

Lastly, we were so close to bringing home a piano that has been being restored but last minute we could not becuase our car does not have the wiring for the tow hitch. We were so bumbed. The piano is beautiful and we cannot wait for it to make it to our home for the boys to pound on. My sister Cari is coming down in August so we are hopeful that she will be able to bring it with her.

That is our July in a flash.
