Temple Open House!
We have loved having family come walk through the temple with us. I love it more everytime we go. I got to be an usher several times, and also got to play the piano in the welcome center. Jeff was able to be security on the 3rd floor and was able to spend a lot of time in the celestial room. We feel so lucky, and can hardly stand our excitement! The dedication is August 13th, and we have our first several appointments set up!
We spent a week at Uncle Rich's property and he absolutely spoiled us. The kids had the best time! We rode tractors, horses, and the side by side, he built the kids a fort out of hay bales and we had an outdoor movie, got ice cream and visited the house Jeff's family lived in. The kids loved spending time with Uncle Rich!
I had great plans to go to a waterpark on my birthday, but the weather was surprisingly cold. Jeff suggested topgolf, and the kids had a blast!
Boston also had a baseball game that evening. His team did so well this year! He's usually done by the first of June, but his team kept winning games, so they kept on playing - haha!
Boston got to go on a road trip with my mom to see my Grandma. They had a great time! He did some work and got spoiled by his grandma's! They stopped at Hooper springs and tried the soda water. Its not great unless it has something to mix in it haha!
Meanwhile, we took the kids to Costco and to the museum.
Fathers Day! We spent the day spoiling Dad and had Jeff's parents and sister over for dinner. We made all his favorite foods and homemade ice cream and the girls made Jeff and his dad paper crowns.
We invited my parents over for a (very belated) Mothers Day, and Fathers day breakfast! The kids wanted to be their waitresses and they cooked and arranged all the food! They did such a good job.

Happy Birthday Rylee!
This is the last year I will make my girls a fancy cake. Rylee ate NONE of this cake. I repeat NONE. All of my kids (Except Boston) hate cake. How ironic is that?
Birthday visit to see grandma and grandpa
We promised the girls birthday parties this year. I also convinced Ellie to postpone her birthday party to the summer since there's not much to do for an inside party. So we knocked out two class birthday parties at different times in one day, renting a bouncehouse and a cotton candy machine. The girls were in heaven! We have such great kids in our neighborhood :)
