A few "Summer 2011" favorites

The water slide was by far the best summer activity! We had many good days and nights on this beauty. Spence has shown us lots of different ways to slide down (and in spandex).

It's always more fun to go with someone else!
Sunny was getting CraZy!
The classic Brian, Spence & Chri slide (No, that's not a typo).
Doug was even enjoying it.
A little giddy...
This is by far the most classic pic of the summer. Sara's bum about to land on my head.
And my graceful moves.
Drew did a flip and got a bloody nose.
It was a pretty rockin flip!
My Cutie and me.
4th of July, Sky Sox game.
Spence catches a ball, left handed, no mitt, while eating a pretzel.
RyRy rockin' no hands while cruisin in the cars.
Maddy's pitching machine team.
Talan lost his 1st tooth!!!!

So we used half the kids tokens to go on this ride. Back off. It was fun.
After 2 months of having the water slide Ryan goes down by himself for the first time!
I had to kick everyone off and go with him over and over for a half an hour for him to try it. Totally worth it!

Maddy's Baptism Day

Madalyn made a wonderful decision to be baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. We are all so proud of her. It was such a spiritual day that I hope she will remember for the rest of her life. Most of our families were here to support her on her special day.
