Gigalicious

Hunter and I at Hunter's guitar teachers Gig.
Hanging out on the patio at Smokey Mt. with my Hunter, eating chocolate cake, and listing to Pat.
Good times!

family fun

When Bruce finally finished his jury trial that lasted forever we headed to the other side of the state for some fun times hanging out together. We went to Yellowstone and Old Faithful. Ellis thought that Old Faithful was boring and underwhelming. Bruce nor the boys had ever been there so we really had a good time. On the way back to Idaho Falls we stopped and visited Trevor, Misty and the kids in Island park. The boys loved running around with the cousins.



We went to Fort Hall to buy some illegal fireworks (a must). We had a good time seeing cousins at my Grandpa and Grandma's reunion and seeing the Melaleuca Freedom Festival.

.........Waiting for the Fireworks to start

We also had an awesome BBQ at Trevor and Misty's home. I have no photos but the boys had a great time driving the 4 wheeler all over and the adults enjoyed talking by the fire. We were able to see Abby my long lost German niece. ;)

Again??

So I went to my mailbox the other day excited to see my Tennis Magazine inside. That is always a good mail day :). So I tear open the plastic and look at the cover.... Really I have seen this cover a million times. Andy Roddick... Can he finally go the distance (at Wimbledon)? Answer - No he stinks. He can not go the distance at any tournament. Come on America - find another mens tennis star to worship. One that can play. This is getting pathetic.

SuMMer

Yeah it is almost here! My favorite season. I have been waiting and waiting. I have patiently been enjoying the unusually cooler weather because I know one day when I am leaving the pool and it is over 100 - I will wish is was 55 and raining.
I am excited about -

Summer = tinted moisturizer and bronzer - no makeup :)
Taking the kids to the hydrotube


Braden loves fireworks. Me too

We have been sleeping in until 10ish every day - don't call us early


I think my baskets are actually going to do well this year
I love sunhats - The only bummer is that you can't drive in them - I tried





Sunglasses are the best
I love local Cherries


I am trying to do better - I always get burned - I already have this year

Watermelon in season
I have the best new tennis buddy - Ellis would play every day

And about a million other things - Summer is the best - I just wish Bruce could have a summer vacation. He needs one. We have not seen him at all

Kevin

We have not seen the neighborhood peacock in a while. It has been hanging out on the road below us. But we hear it every morning and evening.
Ellis loves the movie Up. He is always humming the music from it and quoting movie lines. Anyway a few weeks a go we were out playing in the back yard and heard the peacock. Ellis yelled "I hear Kevin". From that moment on the peacock has been named. He is Kevin the peacock that hangs out on the Mesa. ~~ I don't know if he likes chocolate~~

I'm not jealous

Yesterday some friends of the boys came over. Bennett (Braden's friend) was out back doing tricks on the trampoline and Ellis was watching him. Bennett was joking with Eli and said "Ellis are you jealous?" Ellis responded, "no... I'm not jealous... I'm Ellis!"

Pedicures with my boys -



No eye contact from Hunter -
Therefore no proof?? I think this was his thinking.


If only their feet were always this clean :)
BTW - I am the only one who painted my nails.
