If you have started to read my blog, STOP! I still don't have the art of blogging down and everything is backwards. I am now to frustrated to fix it. Start at the bottom where we have sparklers in a picure. Read backwards and pretend you are Japanese. We had so much fun getting together with all of our cousins this summer. We wouldn't have had it any other way. You are all so loved and cherised. Thanks for helping make our memories more memorable!
He got a garage shelf unit and storage totes to boot. Needles to say it was fun and exciting. I think he has caught the bug of the treasure hunt, he just won't want to ever pay DI prices.
He got plastic shoe boxes with lids, bolts of fabric(I need help knowing how to use those), things to hang on garage walls, sweats, over 300 new #2 pencils, and crayons galore.
Christmas in September. Travis got to go through a house scheduled for demolition with a couple of his clients, that bought the home and property to build condos. HE outdid andy DI trip I could ever go on, and it was all for free. He got over 30 church CDs, 5 church videos, and 12 books, plus World Atlas books, church time line books, gospel history, and piano books. Everything was brand new, still wrapped and all.
While in Heber we went for a drive. We came upon 7 or 8 bull Elk just grazing on the mountainside. Very rare. Sorry it is blurry. They were all huge.
We rod the Alpine Coaster. If you get a chance to ride it's a blast. They do it throughout the winter as well. You get in this cart and it takes you across the bridge which then starts to climb you right up the face of the mountain. You have hand breaks but you are avised not to use them. You get to the top, make a slight turn, and plunge zig-zag down the side of the mountain at about 40 mph. You are so nervous at first, but when all is over you want to do it again! All but Tate rode and everyone loved it.
We went to ride the alpine slide but the line was so long that we did some other things instead. Tate got to be a rocket pilot. This ride was just perfect for him.
One of Travis clients was kind enough to give us a condo at no charge while we were in Park City. They funny thing is that the kitchen was nicer than mine. The kids loved it and every morning we would find them awake before us. They were either in bed watching T.V. or in the living room. They kept it down so not to bother us. They are so thoughtful?
Trevor had a 2 day soccer tournament in Park City. They didn't win a game but they had a good time trying.
It was chilly. Why put on a jacket, shoes, or any protective gear. They were running around outside without shoes and loving it.
We had a hailstorm a week ago. It was like Winter in August. The Hail was huge and it covered out yard. The kids had a blast playing outside after it stopped. We had adults and children alike all over the neighborhood walking and splashing barefoot in the gutters.
Taylar had her appendix removed this summer and we haven't had any stomach pains since. She was such a trooper and tried so hard to be strong and not complain.I was so proud of her when she finally started to cry and complain because it got the ER worried and moving on her problem. Needles to say because of the surgery the kids all benefited. For 2 weeks they were allowed to hang out in there room watching movie after movie, courtesy of Hollywood Video and Youngstrom Video Outlet!
We learned the art of walking on the ceiling. Training Tate for a life in the circus or an illusionist.
We practiced snorkeling without water this summer. I found it not to be very effective but fun. I think it is one of my best pictures to date.T.J is just cute and Terell is the dominator of snorkeling.
Summer started off with a bang at the Wartenas home. We had sparklers galore that made for very happy children. What could be more fun than to light a stick and swing it around in the air without any punishment. You can see the intensity on the boys faces as they work together to share fire!
