24th Of

JuLy

Every 24th of July. My dad is in charge of there stake 24th of July breakfast. So we went and had breakfast at there stake center... They had pancakes, scrambled eggs, fruit, and juice and milk. It was pretty tasty! Then they had some gunny sack races for the kids, but the little kids were to little so they just let them run to see who got there first. Cameron won 1st place in his age group... my dad said that he ran as fast as he could, he probably would of one Chase if he was in his age group, he won a bat and ball. Chase didn't win at first, then they had a race at the very end with any age, and he won 1st, so he got sidewalk chalk. Then they ha d a little Parade that the kids decided to join in on! I think they had a great time:)

Our 3 boys!

Kash playing around with Cameron's ball and bat that he won...and Chase was trying to put his cowboy hat on Kash, but Kash kept pulling it off.

Some of the wards in my parents stake had a little parade.....so Chase,Hailee and Cam thought they needed to be in it!

Kash and mom... Chase actually took this picture. I thought he did a pretty good job...maybe he will be a photographer when he grows up!



Swimming

After we had got home from the breakfast Mike and Jess invited us to go swimming at Jess's parents house. So we got over there about 11:30. Kody and Mike taught Chase how to dive at the deep end, and dive and get the rings..... he was doing such a good job, he even grabbed 2 at one time! Cameron kept doing these front dives into the pool, and Chase wanted to do them too, so he was trying to show his older brother how to do them. We had a great time. We stayed there until about 3:30. The kids were having such a great time, they didn't want to leave. After swimming they played on the playground and rode these little battery charged 4 wheelers... but they weren't charged. When we got home Kody was burnt really bad, I was a little bit on my legs. Kody was all over his back and chest... We were more worried about getting sunscreen on the kids, that we didn't put it on ourselves! Better luck next time!

Kash and Dad.

Mike and Jess in the pool... hanging out!

Mike showed Chase how to hang from the Basket ball hoop... I guess he kind of dared him to. But he kept on doing it.

Cameron would get up on Kody's shoulders, then jump off. He loves the water... He is like a little fish. Jess's parents had these cool floatie things. Cam like them, it looked like a shark! Mike, Kody and the boys played a little basketball. They would have Cam dunk it and he would fall right on it.

On our way home the boys had fallen asleep...as soon as we had gotten in to the car, the funny thing is that they fell asleep right on Kash's feet. He kept on laughing and trying to talk to them!

Later that night

At about 5:30 my parents and Clint, Nicole and Hailee came over and Clint cooked us Carne Asada( hopefully that is spelled right) and we made some really good salsa, that a lady from my moms work makes. Dinner was really good. Then we watched a little bit of Americas Got Talent...and we were laughing so hard at some of the auditions!

We all had a great 24th of July.
