Jarom's on Guitar...

Jarom had another big performance the past two nights. This time they covered songs from the birth of rock: Chuck Berry, Elvis, etc. I tried to get him to slick his hair back, sport converse, and peg his shirt and pants. All I got was converse. Either way he looked adorable, and did great. I love this kid.

Kipper Kaia Kool...

...came to stay with us for 5 days. I sure love having my beautiful niece to hang with. We went skimboarding, played on the internet too much, ate too much, and I am sure I embarrassed her too much.

Waynsh Week Starts with a Bang!

Ice Age 3.. in 3D.. not for me..

Went to check out the new Ice Age flick. I loved Ice Age, and even enjoyed the 2nd. I wish I could say 3rd times the charm, but I'd be lying. But, the kids loved it! 

Michaelangelo and King of the Hill

One of Z's final product.

Me, Jarom, Nora, Z.. Created by Nora. One of her many masterpieces. 

Jarom as a cartoon. Created by none other than Jarom himself.

Is this a real genuine smile from Jarom?? Crazy. Pictured is Jarom and his two Cartoon Drawing Camp teachers. Jarom has some real talent, like his cousin Alec. It is fun to see him develop his own creative style.
Nora and Z went to Art Camp and studied Michelangelo and his work. They even got to paint on their backs. Although Nora looks less than pleased here, she had a great time. Z made a great.. mess. Big shout out to Dixie State College, my alma mater.. for putting on such creative week long camps, for a great price too!

Main Street Park, Bring your WETSUIT?

Crystal had a little get together for her two boys Bdays. There is this neat little water park/splash pad over on Main. Z was determined to be ready for the depths of these harsh waters. Equipped with his Wake-boarding Wetsuit, Goggles, and a Snorkle we headed out. Nora on the other hand would not change out of her favorite outfit, which I am sure you have noticed she wears... all the time. Jarom got to catch up with us late due to jammin over at the Academy.  We had a great time, with rad friends, and plenty of goofy kids. I love it here.. :)

Hillbilly Hottub

Its hot hot hot. These kids will do anything to cool down. Even use my empty black planter box. 

BBQ's and Buddies

I love BBQ's and hanging with buddies. Summer always moves by so fast. Thanks Schwalgers for having us. Happy Birthday Kosene!

Cooking Camp

The girls attended Cooking Camp, and learned how to make Monkey Bread, amongst other things. I think they had a great time. I really enjoyed Hailey's stories of events that unfolded while there. Such as, the girl who locked herself in a clubhouse, and the mean girl who was just jealous that Nora was Hailey's cousin.
