Albion Basin

Ahh, one of our most favorite places to go.  We caught it a few times during wildflower season this month.  This time we had nets for the kids to catch salamanders at the top of the hike in Cecret Lake.

Children's parade

Sawyer was asked to hold the banner for our stake's float parade.  He didn't want to do it, but afterwards I got him a shake, so he was happy he did it.  The next Monday, we met up with cousins at the float preview, then swimming at Grandma and Grandpa VL's.

Swim lessons

Time for swim lessons again at Miss Amee's!  I love their saline pool.  I made them do the lessons that had them swim the long way in the pool.  Sawyer was nervous that he wouldn't be able to do it, but he was perfectly fine.  Another year of swim lessons under their belts!

Cub Country

I got to attend Cub Country with two of my boys this year.  Hayden is a new Wolf, and Sawyer is still a Bear for one more month.  It was so fun to be with both of them.  The first day was "Fort Cub" and was themed around explorers and frontier life.  The second day was "Jedi Training" complete with appearances by Darth Vader and Storm Troopers.  When I asked them what their favorite part was, they said "Everything!"  I love scouts!  I also now feel a deep responsibility to show my children the Star Wars movies, as they have never seen them!

Slurpee day

7-11 day!  We got our free slurpees!  Check that off the summer bucket list.

Tennis lessons

We signed up the three oldest for tennis lessons at Marv Jenson again this summer. I made Hayden do it this year too, against his will.  Guess what?  He LOVED it!  He wants to take more tennis now.  I told Josh he could do it when he is four, and he wanted to go buy a racket for him right now.
