Father's Day and Summer Break

 Jared and the boys went on the ward Father/Son camp out. The girls and I had a sleepover in my bed while they were gone.







On Father's Day we made Jared a nice breakfast, gave him some presents, went to church and then had a nice dinner. I forgot to take a formal picture of Jared and the kids that day but that evening we got some good selfies on the trampoline. We love this guy!






The summer started out nice and hot so we enjoyed a lot of time at the pool. I spent a few half days with Bradley and the other cubscouts at day camp.





Jared and Mackayla got to go to a father/daughter activity with the activity days group. Jacob had another morning at work with Jared. There was no way Jared could supervise a concrete pour all by himself so he was grateful that Jacob was willing to step up.



Chad and Amy got a new boat and invited us and the Holts down to their place to try it out.  We were only out there about 20 minutes when the rope got caught and we were stuck. With in a few minutes some crazy flash storm came. There was lightening all around us and the waves were getting bigger and bigger. We finally flagged someone down and they started to tow us back in. We had a long ways to go and we were going slow because of the storm. It kept getting worse and it was pretty scary! The kids were getting upset so we sang primary songs until we made it back. The women and kids ran back to the cars in the insane wind and rain and the men worked together to load the boat up. We then hung out at the Hatfields until the storm passed. It was a wild, crazy experience!





Mackayla is definitely an artist. She wanted to do a painting project so she found a tutorial on YouTube and made this painting.
