Recent activities

It is too sad for words to think the boys will be back at school and I'll be back at work in less than three weeks! This summer has gone by way too fast- as always. Here are some highlights of the past few weeks.

This sunset was so beautiful I just had to pull off the side of the road to take a picture a few nights ago.

Jake has had a great summer job working at the Logan Aquatic Center as a lifeguard and swim teacher. It's been great for him to be busy and earning money. He likes it pretty well, but wasn't amused when I was there one day discreetly taking a few pictures. . .
A lot of Cam's summer has been full of baseball. He started on a new super league team that plalyed April-June, played city Pony league May-July, played on the high school legion team June & July, and played on an all-star team in July. Whew! That was a lot of hours of watching for Mom and Dad, but we loved every minute of it.





Kylee turned 23 today, so on Sunday we had a little get-together with the Skeens, Bundys and Petersons to celebrate. We ate grilled salmon (yum), played beach volleyball, heard Emma sing "God bless America" dedicated to Kylee, and played ultimate frisbee in the dark at Lundstrom park. It was a very fun evening.
Kylee and I joined Ann, Jamie, Sara and Lindsey and their kids at Bear Lake one Friday. It was so much fun that we went back a week later with. . . all the same people plus a few males-Trace, Ryan, Cody, Jake and Cam. It wasn't quite as fun as the week before, but only because it was very windy.

Every activity we do just isn't quite as fun as it could be because I miss Jessica so much and wish she were there. But she's having a great time in New York, and will be home in 20 days! Not that I'm counting. . .

It has been a VERY fun summer. I feel like mine is just beginning so it was weird to think about yours coming to an end. I wonder if we still would've seen so much of each other had I not lived in Paradise. That one picture of me and Kylee looks like I am a turtle from the profile...da*n Griffin chin!

Fun summer! I can't believe school starts in 3 weeks. I'll bet Jake has a lot of girls following him around at the pool. Cute kid.
