Summertime

 

Here is a little of what we have been up to lately. It seems like summer is so busy. This summer I have to say has been our busiest! Scott and I are on a coed softball team, Scott has been playing for a men's team, Karter has had swim lessons and we have seven peaks passes and on and on and on! It has been crazy so now I am FINALLY caught up on blogging.

Karter's Swim Lessons

Karter has been in swim lesson for the last 4 weeks and for the past two weeks he has been getting pretty much one on one because they messed up when signing him up and signed him up for a level too high for his age. So when he got moved to the correct level he wasn't loving the teacher so much and ended up with Ashley. She is a lifeguard but for the session and time we were at he was an extra helper. So she ended up giving Karter pretty much private lessons for the last 2 weeks. He has just loved her to pieces and today was the last day and he was sad to hear it. He went on the BIG slide with her and HATED every minute of it. I will miss seeing him go everyday because he has sure learned a lot from her. She does give private lessons so we will see what happens!

Orem Summerfest

 

Each year we go to the Orem Summerfest because my grandma lives in Orem. So each year we go to the parade and then fireworks. My grandma is too cute at parades and makes it so much fun to be there. She claps and cries pretty much the whole time. This year our friends Travis and Lindsay came with us. Lindsay also came and hung out with me and the kids all day (friday and saturday). It was super fun!

Kandon was in the baby contest and WON 2nd place for costume. He was really cute for the costume judges, when we went to the regular judges he wasn't so happy. But we were very pleased with his victory!
