I went to California last week! I have a deal with myself that if Ben is going to be gone then I can be gone also. So Ben went to scout camp and I took the kids to CA. LaNell came with me because I CANNOT make the drive by myself and we had a wonderful trip minus a few long hours of screaming in the car. Anyway, rewind another week before last week and that is where these pictures are coming from:
slip n slide
We had a free Saturday and spent it at home doing a few chores but mostly just being home as a family. The kids did the slip n slide and then took the cold hose in the hot hot tub and played for hours. Rose wore arm floaties and couldn’t quite relax with them.

The next day we got to pick my niece and nephew up at the airport. Shae is 17 and Braden is 14. They got to go to EFY this year so we spent Sunday evening hanging out with them before they went to BYU for the week. We also spent time with the Nettesheims that night for Ellie’s birthday.

Joel took this random pic of Brewer waiting for us to get home Sunday night. He's a good lookin dog.
A few more random pictures:
Our backyard Tree that we love.
Each of our children have enjoyed this swing.
Rose chewing on a rag - she loves to do this after every meal - weird - but whatever.
Our cute thumb sucker.
Summer is going way to fast. It just started but I can already see the end…
