SWIMMING WITH COUSINS




The kids love going to the pool. Living in a small town we always bump into neighbors so everytime we go their is always a friend to play with. Aubree hangs out where the diving boards are (with only having 2 swim lessons at age 4 and 8 she's an amazing swimmer!) Addie hangs out with me and Austin just wants to do the waterslide the whole time. This time I dragged my sister in law with me and her kids.

Austin's New Hobby





David and Aubree run the track at the high school a couple nights a week and one night Austin wanted to go to. So without us saying anything he puts on his "running outfit" as he calls it and his "running shoes (aka spiderman shoes that lightup) and we all went to the track.
Austin ran 5 laps with me and Davids mouths gaping open.
Everytime he would get back to the starting line up he would say "C'mon Dad lets go!" When he was almost at the finish line we would cheer him on and he would run really fast to "win" with a huge grin on his face.
He's never done 5 laps in a row since then but he'll at least do 2 or 3.
Addie and I sit on the stands and cheer them on dreaming of the marathon we might run someday...in the millennium ...

GARDEN






Here's an update on the backyard. Daylilies are starting to bloom and David wants me to plant more. Ummm... we have 30 of them, isn't that enough? This morning I just planted 8 more roses with 2 more on the way. The company that I order from sent me the wrong rose so they said just to keep that one and they will send me the right one within a week. YEAH! Except now I have to start digging another hole! So it brings the grand total to 22!

Wheeler Farm






If you ever want a cheap place to take your kids Wheeler farm is definitely the place! We spent $10 for the whole family to take a wagon ride and then the kids just ran around looking at the animals, playing in the treehouse, feeding the ducks, and playing in the stream. Austin wasn't feeling good so he stayed in the car with David most of the time.

HAPPY FOURTH!










We had a great 4th of July weekend. We went to the parade and sat with Shane and Rahndi and their kids. It was Austin's first time actually enjoying the parade. It was right up his alley with a flyover from Hills Airforce base, lots of firetrucks, police cars, and motorcycles. Later on we had a BBQ with Shane and Rahndi and of course fireworks. We found an empty parking lot and laid down all of the seats in the back and had a great view of the Desert Peak fireworks.

ECLIPSE REVIEW

I went and saw the movie last night with my good friends Melanie and Mandy. Had a blast! And went home with my stomach hurting from laughing so hard.
Anyway, abut the movie:
LOVED IT!! So here's my list:
* They finally got the kiss right on both sides. No more moaning and weird sounds! Jacob and Bellas kiss was how Edward and Bella's first kiss should have been.
*They finally got the make-up right on Edward and he FINALLY LOOKED GOOD!! The tent scene...YUM!
*Bella finally looked cute and she didn't annoy the heck out of me in this one. She smiled a lot more
*I liked Bella and Edwards relationship better. It was how I read it in the books.
*Great meadow scene
*Better music then New Moon although I still liked Twilights soundtrack better
*Great fight scene. (seriously, were those arms being flung into the air?)
*Their weren't as many cheesy lines. Their were still cheesy lines, just not as many.
*Loved the tent scene from both Jacob and Edward. Still can't get over how good Edward looked
* I haven't read Eclipse in a long time, but I don't think they added anything differently, maybe I'm wrong
*Why does Bella have to choose? She's definitely got the best of both worlds. I think its funny how the critics say theirs nothing about Bella that would make 2 guys completely in love with her. I think we all have our little fantasy (back when we were teenagers of course!) Of feeling awkward and plain and wishing we had 2 hot guys completely in love with us!



*Rosalie's make up was horrible! She looked weird
*I didn't like the new Victoria. She wasn't very scarey. She seemed more of a threat in New Moon. What?! She's afraid of the Cullens. C'mon! Be the villian.
*Jacob didn't seem as buff in this one (that's a HUGE downside!! Maybe I was just paying more attention to Edward in this one!)

So in a nutshell:LOVED IT! CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT ONE!!
