Summer has been great. We have had lots of adventures but we are so excited to go back to school now. Chloe took swimming lessons. She did great. She even dared jump off the diving board.
We have had lots of swimming adventures too. We have gone to Rexburg splash park, Ribgy lake, Gem lake, ammon pool, and Rexburg Rapids.
We went to Boise for a week with Dad's meetings. We had fun going to the zoo, swimming in the pool, visiting Nick's family, going to a splash park, going to dave and buster's, and school shopping. We were sad that Hayden couldn't come because of football but he had fun staying with his grandparents.
e Other fun activities were going to Yellowstone for a day. We had a great time seeing the geysers and spotting animals, even a bear. Once Kinley started puking though, it was time to go home. We made a quick trip to Utah. We went to Cherry Hill, took Granny Great out to dinner and went to the Ogden temple open house. It was so great to go inside a temple. Other fun activities is fires in the backyard with friends, night games, science experiments, shaving cream fights, water parties, movies at the paramount, scout day trips, activity days, playing with friends, and of course our daily 10.
Hayden started football. He spent most of July getting ready for it by running in the mornings with his mom and friends. He also went to conditioning camp and padded camp. He was excited to start real practices. He loves playing defense and tackling the other team. He loves it when he sacks the quarterback. He will be excited to play in his first game on Tuesday.
We were happy that our dad started feeling better with his knees and was able to do a little bit with us before he went back to work. My mom also started a job with the district with the online school. That has made the end of this month a little crazy. We are all excited to start school again and the routine that will bring.
