"Families are as diverse as individuals. The activities they do together vary, but one thing is true for all of them: "In family relationships love is really spelled t-i-m-e, time." Whether family members get together for scheduled outings, sharing interests, or serving others, these gatherings strengthen relationships that can be eternal."
President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Wow! It's already JULY???



Where has my summer gone?  I can't believe it is already the 9th of July!  Only 19 more days until school starts.  I am soooo NOT ready for that.  We have had a lot of fun.  The summer movies, swimming, Broadway Palm, bowling, dentist appts!  AND...  Chase had his very first Pack Meeting!  He has been so excited to start scouts.  For his first pack meeting they did slip and slide, and had rootbeer floats and watermelon.  It was so much fun and Hayden and Blake had a blast as well.  Chase has already memorized his cub scout promise.  He is looking forward to going to his regular meetings and earning his patches and belt loops!  
We had a really fun 4th of July!  We went to the Broadway Palm kids show-- Alice in Wonderland.  It was really good- my favorite kids show so far.  After that we went back to my parents house with Julz and the kids and played for awhile.  Then, for our 2nd annual 4th of July dinner (Fairrington's and Heywood's) we ate at Streamers.  Trevor, Mercedes and Brittny  joined us.  It was fun and very yummy.  (Sweet Potato fries are a must!)  After that we went bowling at the new Brunswick.  It was so nice.  The kids did great and Blake even rolled a strike the first time he bowled. (With bumpers of course.)  Branson won-- he is a great little bowler!  After that it was 10pm!  As we were driving home we did see some fireworks.
