So here is the recap of June for us! (Warning...this blog is long, and has lots of pics!)
*My dads birthday is June 1st, and this year he turned 69! My dad is a one-of-a-kind original! He still has a thick head of dark hair, (hardly any grays), he's tan, and buff, and in great shape! He is about as intelligent as it gets, and can discuss just about any topic you can come up with, and has a strong opinion about everything! He is a great scriptorian, and has some of the best stories himself to tell. He is a cancer survivor, and one of the hardest working men I have ever known. We tease him a lot, and he takes it like a man....but there is no one like our Pops! He has been a wonderful father, always making sure that his children know that they are loved, and not alone! Happy Birthday Poppy! You are the Best!
*Jeff and I had our first date in quite a long time. No pics, but we went to dinner and a movie, and it was really nice to have some alone time. We both had a brief reminder of our "pre-children" world of humor, and conversation! We really need to do that more often!
*Katie got the pox finally! It took her long enough! She finally completely scabbed over the day we left to go on our vacation!
*We went to Las Vegas, and St. George for the Conner Family Reunion! We had sooooo much fun! So, on the way up, we stayed at the South Point in Vegas which was off the strip, and an awesome hotel for families! It had movie theatre, bowling alley, lots of restaraunts, arcade, and a great pool area!
(I don't know how they made that boring trip, with dvd's, and video games....torture!)
The boys walking over to the kiddie pool (Kt is already in it!)
*Then we went up to St. George and had so much fun! As usual my Uncle Mike, and Aunt Teresa outdid themselves on being the perfect hosts! We had some delicious food, games, and fun including, chocolate milk pong, dodgeball, pinata, silent auction, talent show, shooting guns, we didn't get to do the motorcycle riding this time, but it was still a blast! Very well organized by my 2 beautiful cousings Bria, and Kimmie! Thanks guys!
(You might notice Tyler's goose-egg on his head from a fall he had earlier at the pool...poor baby!)
"She's cute" "He's cute" "This is stupid...why am I here?"
These are my cousins BJ and Brax...you can't not LOVE these guys! They are handsome, sweet, and the MOST FUN people to hang around in the WORLD!
*On the way back, we stopped back in Vegas and stayed at the Las Vegas Hilton, and took the kids sight seeing to see just about everything! They loved it, and were worn out!!! Perfect!
This was a much needed fun family vacation!
*So, the night we got home from Vegas, I was helping get KT ready for bed, and her tooth was just dangling...so I just took matters into my own hands, and got a little dental floss, and tied it around that tooth, and out it POPPED! She was a little shocked, cause it happened so fast, but glad it was over!
KT lost her first tooth! :)
(You can still see the pox on her face...poor little thing!)
*When Toy Story 3 came out, I had to take Austin, and Tyler (Katelyn does not enjoy the movies, and never wants to go because they are too loud for her sensitive hearing). But I tagged along with Becky and her kids, and it was so much fun! Great movie, my kids loved it, (I even found myself teary-eyed at the end). I was a little worried about Tyler in the beginning, but he did not move an inch the entire movie!!!
*June is also two of my sisters birthdays. My mom and I decided to take my sister Lori out for her birthday and some much needed girl/sister time! (My older sis could not be there due to her previous duties as an angel...we miss you Tatie!) We went to eat and went to see Knight and Day, and hung out afterwards, and laughed and laughed....it was a really fun night!
*We have been swimming A LOT! It is too hot to do anything else. My mom only lives about 10 minutes away, so we swim about 3 days a week! We love Mimi and Pops for letting us use their pool at our disposal! :) Not sure how we survived the summers until you guys moved out here!
Now on to JULY!!!!
