Road Trip!

With 3 days notice, we rented a brand new Impala, loaded up the kids, and headed for Tempe, Arizona with a pit stop in San Clememte to drop Kendal, Chris, and Carsyn off at the Beach House. They enjoyed a week with their cousins, aunts, uncles, and Mimi & Papa while Cole and I continued on to the squelching heat and a long week of baseball at the Don Mattingly World Series. His team battled to go ALL THE WAY to the Championship Finals Game! They were by far the youngest team at the tournament and carried themselves so well both on & off the field. The talent pool was amazing!! Had to be honored to be playing among the best of the best! 9 games in 6 days...took a lot of heart and perseverance! 
Great traveling companions...good music, lots of Dr. Pepper, and ACT flashcards!

Great America














Went to Great America with most of my nephews and niece over the summer! JD and Kendal even got my mom to ride "Flight Deck," a roller coaster with 3 corkscrews and 2 loops!! She is more brave than I...I guess maybe that comes with age! lol

Summer Fun!











Carsyn, Chris, & I spent several weeks in Tahoe while Carsyn took tutoring 3 hours a day from a phenomenal place in Incline called e Learning Cafe...we had a blast and are looking forward to another week or so before school begins, even Chris wants to take a "note taking" and organizational class. The 2 of them have also learned how to play Chess and love it! We have definitely missed Rick, Kendal, and Cole who have been doing various activities like Trek, Girl's Camp, Baseball 6 days a week, BYU Baseball Camp, and WORK! I feel bad having such a relaxing summer while my hubby slaves away making it all happen!! But, having the 2 youngest with me was not all peaches-n-cream though...how can you sick of going to the beach?!
