July

I am the most horrible blogger in the world. We’ve done TONS of fun things this month and I haven’t mentioned one…Now you will all just have to be content with pictures and one or two lined captions underneath. So without further ado, I will start with the beginning of the month…actually that is a lie; I’ll start with the end of June.

Mason, Morgan and I went with Nana Strong to “This is the Place”. I loved the snake, and Mason loved the pigs (like, seriously loved them).

That weekend we went down to Fillmore to do some four-wheeling and camping for Rob’s birthday. Rob’s family came down also.

The next weekend we were down to Fillmore again for some swinging and my 10 year high school reunion (that is only about one-third of the class; some couldn’t make it and others had to leave before the pic was taken—Linds and Kristen we missed you gusy!):

Sunday my cousin Erica had her baby blessed, and then we headed to the cabin for a fun 4th of July in Oakley: they had greased pig chases, mutton-busting, and grab the cash off the cows! Mason wanted nothing to do with it…maybe when he’s older. We went to the Matheson reunion at Frank and Uma’s during the afternoon-- then hit the Oakley rodeo that night.

Jumping to the next weekend. We went down to Salt Lake on Saturday to wish Clayton/Grandpa a very happy birthday! We went for a hike around Silver Lake; it was BEAUTIFUL (please note the three generations of Stevens…)!

Aaaannndddd….the next weekend was our ward party, MY family’s reunion, and MY dad’s birthday. Except, I don’t have pics of the reunion part; just of us in the canyon. :)

Mason was bustin’ a move to the Beach Boys; I never get tired of watching him!

This weekend we did some fun backyard swimming and went the the STEVEN’S family reunion in Springville. It was SO FUN! I got to meet a lot of people I had never met before or only very briefly on one other occasion. Mason was absolutely obsessed with the big bubble blower; and the last picture is me trying to get Mason to perform “Do as I’m Doing”. We were supposed to do little skits with the kids, but Mason was pretty burned out this time of the day.

Now, for your viewing pleasure, here are just a few pics of the things we do on a daily basis around here:

Go to the Air Force Museum (Mason’s three life obsessions: bubbles, balloons, and FLAGS…note the middle picture)-

go to the Treehouse Museum-

play games with little brother-

swim and play in the back yard (we also did a brief, three day stint at diabetes camp, but alas I have no pics)-

and play at the park-

In other news; my little sister Sav has accepted an 8th grade English teaching position in Eager, AZ. She moves down next weekend. I wish her the best of luck and know she will do wonderfully!

It’s been a fun and busy summer; thanks for stopping by!!!
