Keeping Busy

This summer we've been keeping busy. We went to see the Oquirrh Mountain Temple, it is beautiful. Doug mows a lawn right across the street, so he has watched it rise from the beginning, and gets to see it every week.

We renewed our zoo pass, and have only been once so far. We will probably go back when Grandma J and Chase come down, hopefully it won't be too hot.

We've spent some time in Idaho with Doug's family. I got to be pampered at a local spa for the day while Grandma took the kids to Jensen's grove and they swam and played at the beach. They played at the park, and rode their bikes around Grandma's house. We also went to the library, where Doug's sister Lisa works. They always do such a great Summer Reading Program. This year's theme was pirates and it was awesome!

The kids have been swimming pretty much every day that we have been home. We've gone to the lunch park, had friends over, sleep overs, and all that fun stuff. The kids participated in Rad Kids at the Columbus Center, Ryker finished up soccer and started football.

We also have gone to Lagoon a couple of times, using the great Bounceback program.

Can you tell I was stuck at the kiddie rides a lot? Doug and Ryker ventured off to the big rides, so I didn't get any pics of them :( We spent most of the day at Lagoona Beach anyway. Too hot for anything else.

We've also celebrated holidays, birthdays, family reunions, and have camping trips coming up, and a few other things. Only 3 more weeks left, hopefully we can fit it all in. It's gone by fast!
