New Family Pictures

We just had our family pictures done last Saturday and I am loving the ones I have seen so far. They were taken by Michelle Sallay who was just wonderful! I told her what I wanted and she did it perfectly. I am so happy with them. To more, click here

Summer Camp Picture

We figured out the scanner! Here is the boys Summer Camp picture that we just got today. We are sad that Wednesday is the last day of camp.

While I was out

I guess I was crazy to expect that the week I was gone the boys and Josh would be so bored and miserable without me...they had so much fun! Josh kept things fun as usual. They went to a water party at the Gallivan Center hosted by Radio Disney and Ebay. What a good husband Josh is to take pictures for me with his phone camera since I had the other camera. Look how fun the week was!

Some good action shots.

Wipe out!

Sun and water always takes a lot out of them.

Josh went on line and looked up how to make "really cool" paper airplanes. They boys loved making these with him and seeing which one went the farthest.

The contest!

Hottie! I think he had just thrown an airplane.

I can tell that was a good throw...

These were all of the models that they made.

Fun with Legos. Josh was pretty proud of this tower of Legos. I have no idea why Lincoln's face is so blurry.

Special Needs Girls Camp-Thursday

This was the last day of camp (sniff, sniff). We started with talking about the temple and each of the girls got a beautiful picture of the temple and decorated the frame.

This is Tasha. I worked with her years ago at Oakcrest Girls Camp. She honestly is WONDERFUL. The girls absolutely love her and she is so good to them. Even the hardest of girls worship her.

Our last nature walk.

The water fight is the thing that most of the girls look forward to.

The girls were in water fight heaven.

Here is our whole group.

tonight each of the tents did skits. They were so much fun.

Carol Ann was so reserved all day...until we had the skits. She was so much fun and kept us laughing through the whole thing.

And that was the end of camp...so sad.

Special Needs Girls Camp-Wednesday

Today was a marathon of crafts. So much fun. We first gave the girls a castle that they could decorate with an entire sheet of stickers. They came up with some great stuff.

We went on a nature walk every day much to the dismay of the girls. But I really enjoyed them.

The prayers rocks that we made.

We made dresses out of plastic table clothes. This is one of the ones that I made. Get a load of the plastic ruffle on the bottom. I thought it was cute.

This dress was after a picture of Cinderella. I thought it turned it out so fun.

I absolutely love Geneva. She kept giving me kisses (luckily I saw them all coming and turned my head so I didn't get one on the kisser). She just told me how much she loved me over and over. How can anyone feel bad around these wonderful people.

Michelle did not want to make a princess dress so the ended up making her fairy wings.

The "birthday surprise."

The "Fairy Godmothers" (or Young Women Presidency) did a hilarious skit.

At night after the girls were in bed we had a Jr. Camp Leader meeting and made s'mores. We had the funnest girls as our Jr. Camp Leaders. Some of them had special needs and were so happy to help. It was great.

I ate 3 s'mores. Seriously yummy!
