The kids are in 6 weeks of swim lessons. Luke & Cassidy are both already in level 2. We are so proud of them. They are doing great and learning lots. 

We have grass!

I have a lot to up date so I will do it a bit at a time.  With just a few pictures from each.

Update soon!!!

We got our internet working just minutes ago. (when I say we, I mean my husband) so later tonight I will sit down and put some new pictures. I know a lot of people have been waiting for them. sorry.

Quick up date

Hey John, Are you close enough? 

We left our camera & stroller in the back of my sisters car in California. She said she mailed the camera, I have yet to get it. I know that some people are waiting for some updates. I uploaded what pictures I had from my camera.  This one is the first day back. Its always good to be home. 

This was six flags marine world. Luke and Mika helping us find our way.  Luke was the best map holder. He had it in his back pocket and every time we stoped he would pull it out. 

best brothers!

John has a snake head poking out. Did he eat it hole? All that dirt on his face makes it look like she wrestled it .
On the plane. What a good sister to help him look out the window.

The other day Cassidy was getting an apple fromm the fruit bowl, she said in a very serious tone. " Mom, did you know that if you eat an apple you won't have to go to the doctor?" sooooooo cute! My little girl is growing up so fast. 

AZ Trip and Mission Farewell

This was how hot is was in AZ when we were driving to the airport.

We went down to AZ to say goodbye to Adam and see his farewell. It was sooo hot!!

I thought this was a funny picture of Adam, now that he is gone on his mission, he cant complain about me putting up funny shots.
Give him some time and he will fill out like me,  ha ha!
Adam and the kids.

Amberly trying to stay cool, (unsuccessfully) 
Happy Cousins!
All of us at breakfast on the last day, doesnt Adam look totally excited about his mission??!

The whole family gathered around in the kitchen, doesn't my mom look sooo skinny?

I am blogging this from california right now, when we get back, there will be some fun pictures of the 4th of july that we will post.

Endless Summer

We are loving this summer. Our friends the Porters came up to the Lake House on Saturday afternoon, for some fun on the lake. Their camera is way awesome (thanks Casey!!). After seeing the action shots they were able to get, I think it will be time to upgrade to a nicer camera. It was pretty choppy, except for the last 30 minutes. Then finally all the redneck jet skiers were gone and the water got pretty nice. (Did I mention that I HATE jet skiers!!) 

I was going to flex in this one, but I didnt want you to be totally blown away by the awesomeness of it! I am sporting a new  (smaller) vest. I have lost some lbs!!

I love this shot of the mountains in the background.

The credit for this one goes to Nic and his photoshopping abilities. Thanks man!

Here is my smokin hot wife! She is a GREAT boat driver. (I am sorry I micromanage from the water AMBER, I LOVE YOU)

The above captions are an Actual Representation of what was going on. I thought Nic was going to need to change his suit. ha ha. Thanks for the cool shots porters, we love hanging out with you!!
