Soph's Party at Grandma Sharps

Soph had a birthday party tonight at Grandma Sharps. She was so excited all day. She got some really fun present and now can't wait for her real birthday.

Happy 4th...

We had a really fun fourth. We woke up and went over to the park. Corey and the kids got there breakfast and went to watch the parade while I helped get some last minute things set up. I met them at the parade and got to see a little bit of it. My Aunt Debbie pushed my Grandma in her wheelchair. She thought it was so fun and said she got a lot of cheers. After I saw her I went back over to the midway. We were in charge of the food this year. We spent the rest of the morning and afternoon taking orders and making about 500 sno cones. Jessica was in charge of the cotton candy machine and was completely covered in sugar at the end of the day. It was a great turn out, and I think we were able to raise a lot of money. Corey took the kids to play some of the games. They loved it. Soph got her face painted and won some prizes. After lunch Cor took Daws home for a nap and Soph stayed with us while we cleaned everything up. We didn't get done taking everything down until 5:30. Cor and Jer went golfing, my dad and tom took a rest and Sam went to a BBQ. My Mom, Tori, Jess and the kids and I went to Red Lobster for dinner. We met everyone at Sugarhouse park and watched the fireworks. We were all totally exhausted when we got home. Next year is going to be crazy, my Mom was made the president of the Lions Club and I volunteered to be in charge of the whole parade....

Blanding...

We decided to spend the weekend in Blanding. We left Thursday night and got there around 11:30. Friday we played around, went to the field to catch chickens and look at cows and went to the store. Friday night we went over to the softball tournament. The kids had a blast sliding and rolling down the big hill. Saturday we went to the new pool. It was lots of fun. Dawson stayed back at Grandma and Grandpas with Daddy and Soph and I went with Autumn and the kids. Grandma was so nice and swam with Soph and Maddie the whole day. Autumn and I got to just hang out on the lounge chairs! It was awesome. We went back and ate dinner and we painted our fingernails. Sunday we relaxed and the boys went golfing. I picked Corey up in Monticello around 4 and we headed home. It was a fun weekend.

Swimming Lessons...

Soph started swimming lesson again. She loves them and is doing so well. She also loves her teacher. She can float on her back all by herself, she is learning monkey, airplane, solider and can hold her breath under water the longest out of all of the other kids in her class. Dawson has fun playing on the trampoline and swinging. He has almost jumped in the water a handful of times. He thinks he has to do everything his sissy is doing. I am so proud of you sweetheart!
