We've had so much fun this summer I haven't had time to blog about it so here we go....

OH YEAH!!!!!

I Won't miss this (clocking in)

But I will miss this!! I love all the great friends I made!

Great Grandma Nelsons 90th Birthday

We Love You Grandma!!

My Grandma Hubbard got married

and Oakley got to see all her cousins

And of course there were all the Parades

Some fun at Lagoon

Deacons Favorite part

Moms Favorite part

Deacon falling asleep with sweet Jazz Bear

Our new fav this summer was the Daybreak Beach!

And there were all the MANY many Zoo Trips

The Grand Finally was Horse Days!!

Where Oaks got to ride a pony in the parade and throw candy

and Deac got to watch the parade and throw rocks... they were both in heaven!

SOCCER

Oakley played soccer this summer and Loved it!! I shouldn't brag but she probably averaged about 5 goals a game.... she was awesome!!! The season is over now and she has informed me that she would like to "play bowling" now so we'll see how that goes.

4th of July!!!!

I love the 4th of July!! It is one of my favorite holidays. We went up to Brigham to spend the 4th with friends and family. We had a BLAST!

We started off the weekend with a little camp out in Grandma & Grandpa Smiths backyard.

And Oakley, Ella, Nikki and I were the only ones that actually ended up sleeping out there.

The kids all had so much fun playing in the backyard! Look at that sweeeet irrigation water swimming pool!

And then Grandpa Dickson got geared up for some fireworks.

I love fireworks but I have to say I had more fun watching the boys watch the fireworks....I'm pretty sure the 4th is now one of Deacons favorite holidays too.

Thanks for the Wonderful Weekend Jean and Dickson we love you to death!!!!

3rd Times a Charm

I had to have surgery again yesterday

"3rd times a charm" as my mom would say

I guess it's not so bad they just want me to hear

But how long will I need to have a tube in my ear?

They dressed me all up in this cute little gown

And made me choke some gross medicine down

That did not make me happy, I did not want to grin

But then all of the sudden the medicine kicked in

They brought in a wagon and snuggled me up

I guess it was time for a little nip and tuck

So off I went in my sweet little ride

To get my tubes back in, one in each side

And now for some memories of surgeries past

I'm definitely hoping that this ones the last

OK, I know it shouldn't be funny when you kids swear, but this is freaking hilarious. I wanted to put this on my blog as it may be a little offensive, but I just don't get the traffic Charity does. So enjoy. 

I love my dad because....

*He tucks me in good night

*He helps me say my prayers

*He watches movies with me and eats popcorn

*He loves me and bizzy(deacon) and mom

*He helps me read and color

*He takes me to ride horses at my grandpas

*He always helps me get ready for bed

*He likes me chocolate

*He's the best dad in the whole wide world

I Love, Love, Love My Dad!!!
