Catch Up

Wow! We have had a busy couple of days, so I am just getting a spare moment to jump onto the blog and update you all on the haps!!

Myles' first swim meet went great. He did really well in all of his events and his relay team took First Place. The thing I was most impressed with was Myles' dive. When I swam I usually did the backstroke purely so that I wouldn't have to dive in :) But Myles has a beautiful clean dive! That alone will shave seconds off of his time, so keep it up dude. I helped at the Ribbons table during the meet. That was non-stop writing of times and placements for each heat, so it made the 4 hours fly by. I did take a few pictures but nothing turned out that great, so i promise swim pics at a later date. I just know you are all waiting on pins and needles to see that purple speedo!

Most of the fam came over Sat. evening for an early B-Day BBQ for Myles-the-Man (he will be with his Dad on his actual B-Day). (The picture above is of Myles "thanking" Porter for his gift card, those two are a couple of hams!!) I cant believe my baby is going to be a TEENAGER!!!! We had a nice visit and some yummy food and of course Myles scored on the present front. Then we all headed over to the Lehi Legacy Center Pool. Aunt Rikki won a private pool party in a raffle at the legacy center, so thanks Aunt Rikki for inviting us to the PARTY!! Here are the boys playing basketball, notice all the girls steered clear of that activity :)

Here is a cute snap shot of Heather and Janie. Grace and Jane were good sports for being up so far past their bed time!

Sunday we went to a BBQ at Sugar House Park for Father's day with some of Brad's extended family. It was a gorgeous day! So while the kids ran around like wild hooligans we just laid on a blanket and soaked up the sunshine.

Here is a cute shot of Brad playing Velcro-ball with his niece Sadie.

We hope that all you Daddy-O's out there had a great Father's Day. Brad got new cologne and after shave from VS (my favorite smell on him)!

"In your own personal journey through life, if a road sign appears with the words "CHEMO" anywhere in the message, my advice is to RUN, RUN like you've got a Bengal tiger on your heels. Don't look back, don't ask questions of anyone you may pass along your escape route, just run like hell screaming like a fire truck, run as fast and as far as your weak human legs will carry you. Then when you feel that you just might have out run the monster, start running again because I guarantee you haven't gone far enough....."-- Lisa Gentry (aka My Momma)
