I cut my hair AGAIN!!!

Great photo huh!  So I called my sis-in-law, Jenny, and told Ryan I was getting a "TRIM." HA!   
Well, it was more than a little trim, but I love it!  It is so much easier to do.  

My friend Cammie does this fun slide every summer at Evergreen park.  The boys and I love it when she does it.  She had a ton of people there.
I think Brooks went down about 50 times.  He had so much fun.  You have to run back up the hill and it really wore my kids out.  They were exhausted when we got home.
Jake was so cute taking his sister down the slide.  He adores her.  You don't mess with her when he's around, not even I can tell her NO without Jake piping in.  
Jake and his new goggles!
Aubrey wanted to go down all by herself.  

Fourth of July

we went to Stadium of fire this year.  It was so much fun.  Ryan and I had never been and didn't know what to expect.  It was totally amazing.  It was emotional when they were talking about our great country and all of the service men & women and there families.  I don't know how you don't get chocked up.  They start of by having Jets fly over and parachute's come down.  They had Glen Beck hosting.  I love him so it was really fun to see him live.  The Blue man group was fun.  Miley Cyrus was OK.  The fireworks where amazing.  It was so cool to see them go off.  I got hit by some bug chunks.  We were all covered in ashes.  I love it.  Aubrey loved the whole show.  She was so good.  She had Jim Phillips and Ryan rubbing her feet for about 15 minutes.  It was so funny.  She knows how to get what she wants.  

Look Mom NO HANDS!

This is what happens when the road stops your fall.  You can't see really well, but he is banged up.  He was riding with no hands on Kreeds bike and ate it.  There was blood everywhere.  He cut the inside of his mouth really bad.  He scraped his leg all to pieces.  He was pretty banged up.  
So the next day after the big accident I took the kids to 7peaks.  Jake's friend Dillon came with us.  On the way there Jake was explaining to Dillon that boys play hard and work hard and get scars so that the girls will like them.  He must be hanging out with Lincoln!  He is going to have a ton of girls at the rate he's going.  Chicks dig scars!  I know I do!

Timp Cave

We hiked Timp cave with the Jones'.  It was a lot of fun.  The hike is only 1 1/2 miles,but it is a steep incline.  Jake did great the whole way up.  Brooks did OK.  I only carried him a little ways up.  Aubrey did great on Ryan's back.  The cave was so cool.  I haven't been since I was a kid.  I hit my head really hard twice on stalactite's.  The way down was really hard on the kids knees.  I carried Brooks the whole way and Jake had to stop a couple of times.  Overall they did really well.  

Dress up

The kids all decided to dress up the other day and go show all the big girls on the street.  How cute are they!  These boys have so much fun together.  We are so lucky to have so many fun kids on our street.
Aubrey got in the action with my old track shorts.  I don't know what she is, but she is sure cute.
Kreed is Yoda, Jake is a Ninja Turtle, Aubrey is in shorts, Gage is Batman, Brooks is Red Power Ranger, and Dillon is Karate Kid.

Strawberry

We had so much fun in Strawberry.  We went in the middle of June.  It was so much fun.  The Tranes, Dunn's, and Zamboni's all came with us and we had a great time.  It is always fun when we go with these guys.  I have never been to Strawberry.  It was so beautiful up there and it is only an hour and 15 minutes away.  We can't wait to go again.  There are a ton of mosquitos though.  Jake had 25 and Brooks had 14 when we came home.  I was spraying them with off every 2 seconds.  I think it was attracting the bugs to them.
