Summer Days

Daddy's Little Helpers

Derek decided to surprise me while I was out of town and tile the laundry room. As construction jobs go things weren't completed as quickly as thought......I came home to a bit of a mess. It was still a great surprise! The kids loved being able to help Dad out and get their hands dirty. We are still not sure if all the "help" made things go more quickly......or slow it down??? Now everytime I go into my laundry room I think of all of them!!

First Day of Swim Class

Rayah and Tiaunna took their first swim lessons this past June and loved every minute of it. I took this picture their first day and as you can tell they were so excited!! Every day for a month (the classes ran 2 weeks), Rayah would wake up and ask me ..."Do I have swim class today?"

Even Roman was excited, although he didn't know why. Poor guy, he had to sit on the side of the pool everyday and wasn't allowed to get in. It was 30 minutes of torture every class!! Roman didn't like it either. ;)

P.C. Break

This past May we spent a week in Park City at our time share. We had a lot of fun having sleepovers with our friends and cousins, face painting, swimming and playing in the mountains!!

Rayah had so much fun swimming. When we weren't at the pool she would hang out in all her gear just waiting to go to the pool.

Look who I found hiding in the closet!
