School was out the Friday before Memorial Day, so we kicked off the summer with a little trip to St. George.

Washington Trip!
We were able to drive up to Washington to spend a week at Mom and Dad's condo at Lake Chelan. We had fun seeing Kurt, Shannon, Paul, Joe, Becky and Bob. We were also lucky enough to see David, Tiffany and the adorable Sean and Audrey while we were there.

Yard work!
This picture is out of place. . . .but We continue to do yard work. I have already posted this picture, but just using it to represent all the hours we've spent in the yard. We put seed in the front about a week ago, and are waiting to see if it takes. I'll post some updated pics soon.

Heading into Seattle
After our week in Chelan, we drove over to Seattle for a day. We stopped at Snoqualmie Falls and then ate at the Spaghetti Factory downtown and caught a Mariners Game. They actually won! It was a great way to end our fun week.

| ok, it's blurry, but I was there too! |
 |
| love that Seattle skyline in the background! |

| Go Mariners! |
Kennedy turns 12!
Kennedy is now in Young Womens! She is loving every minute of it. She had a fun birthday on the 18th, and celebrated with some friends at Jump on It ( a giant trampoline park). I didn't get any photos at the park, but did at least get a group photo. She is such a sweet daughter!
 |
| My big 12 year old! |
 |
| The whole party group! |
Summer Ball!
We have also been attending summer baseball games with Luke. His team is playing in a summer league and have been playing 3 times a week. It's always fun hanging out at the ball park!

This sandwich shop is a bit of a hole in the wall, but David LOVES the sandwiches!! See how HUGE they are??

SEGWAY!
 |
Riding our Segways on our tour!
David and I were lucky to get invited by some friends to go on a Segway tour for FREE! We had a blast touring around town! |
ACTIVITY DAYS
I am one of the activity days leaders in our ward. We had a bike ride activity last week. Only one of our girls showed up, but we took our own kids with us and had a fun time riding on the trail by they river.
 |
Ready to head out on our bike ride!

Manti Pageant
I drove the kids out to Manti last week and attended the Manti Pageant. It is a pretty spectacular setting. The pageant is pretty fun and is done right on the lawn in front of the temple. Mia curled up on a blanket and slept through the whole thing!
 |
| What a beautiful Temple! |
 |
| You can see a few "Lamanites" in the background |

| before she fell asleep :) |
 |
| Almost starting time. It doesn't start until dark |
So that is our first month of summer highlights. There is always more going on, but I won't bore you with more details!
But it includes early morning football for Luke (including getting a concussion at practice ), soccer practice for the girls, a lot of umping and reffing for david, early morning runs for me to avoid the heat of the day, etc etc.
Hope everyone is enjoying their summer so far!

Was Mia able to eat that huge pancake? Impressive! We so enjoyed your visit here; I would love to get copies of those pics at the pool! Also, always wanted to go to see a pageant. The way the sun is shining on the temple in your bottom pic is fabulous!
Good luck with all of the summer craziness :)
Super fun to see all the pics, that must of taken a while! Sometimes I miss the craziness and other times I am grateful for sort of the slower life, either way I cant change it so I might as well be thankful right??
Looks like you guys are having a summer chock-full of fun. What a fun idea to go for a group bike ride for AG's. I think I'm going to start campaigning to be called as the assistant Activity Day Girls leader. Of course, you probably have about 100 girls that age to manage and it wouldn't be as easy as I'm imagining.
Even though we talk fairly often, I didn't know about some of your activities. You have had a busy month. I think about our "slow paced" live here, and realize we need to get out more often.
Loved all the pictures.
So fun! I loved all your pictures and seeing what you guys have been up to. Just wish we were included in your summer plans! Miss you guys!
