Our past month

The lacrosse team rented out the Roy aquatic center. It wasn't even crowded and was awesome.


Cameron and Shane helped Tara in her yard fix her leaking faucet. 

The Cub Scouts went hiking up North Ogden divide and ended at this yurt. What a great bunch of boys. They keep us hopping, but we really love all of them. 


The Weston family spent the weekend at Rockport this year for the family reunion. We had a blast. Broke out the kayak for the first time and they didn't ever get off. All day long they took turns ridding it all over the resivor.  The boys favorite part was catching lizards.  

2015 baseball season down. It was a success again. Lots and lots of rain which made the season drag on and on, but Dakota and Cam had a great time. Dakota got to pitch some games and really improved his speed. 

We have spent many hours over at the rental house this month. The tree out back was touching the ground all around. Kind of like a fort but super annoying to mow around and hard. We got the chain saw over there and started cutting and before we knew it we had been there All day and had a giant pile to get rid of. Our boys are becoming the best helpers. They work so hard. Justin came and helped too which saved us a ton of time and effort. 





Another project at Grandmas house. The north side of the front of the house had a GIANT flower bed that always looked so much like weeds so we decided to put rocks there instead. Luckily Blake lent us his loader for this project and also his dump trailer so not as much man labor, more machine. Whew. 

Spending everyday in the pool keeps these kids busy all summer long. That pool was the best investment we ever made. It is worth it's weight in gold I tell you. The Weston boys and the Hill boys swim everyday. Troys kids swim every Tuesday and many other neighborhood kids all week long. Cameron has really long, needs to be cut soooo bad, hair that I love, and looks like a surfer. Bleached and all. 

Last weekend we wanted to get out of the house before the festivities for the 4th so we headed up to Mantua and camped in the tent trailer and use the kayak in the reservoir.  Tara joined us and we really enjoyed relaxing and swimming. 


The big celebration day. I love the Fourth of July but man it is so exhausting. Starts on the 3rd and goes and goes until midnight on the fourth. My boys got 5 hours of sleep and were so tired but were going on steam I guess because they kept going all day. Parade, games, swimming, baseball game that Shane played in, and ended with fireworks. Big day. Braxton and Dakota carried flags and Cameron rode his bike. 



4 best friend having a corn dog---doesn't get any better than that. Summer is the best. Gavin, cam, Owen and Dakota. The Hill boys are the best thing to have next door. Man they are inseparable and love playing outside and swimming everyday.
