It's been way too long!

Here I sit on a sunday morning worrying that I am missing out on my kids lives by not recording what is going on. It is June 26th and the year has flown by very quickly so far. A quick catch up...School ended, sports ended and now we are in full swing in the summer. We went to the JW Marriott Desert Ridge resort for a staycation for a few days. We basically layed by the pool and read books and just relaxed! Chris's company paid for it so it was even better on their dime. Sydney and I went to girls camp June 14-18. It was so much fun! I love being there with Sue Yocum and Kristen Benson, they were so helpful and wonderful. THe girls were fantastic, no drama, no problems, nothing! It made for a great week. It was so nice to be up there with Sydney, she was a YCL this year and they were given more responsibility. They had to teach the certification classes and give devotionals and be more involved in the wards activities. She did a great job. OUr YCL were fabulous, they gave great heart felt devotionals and were so awesome with the girls. During the same week Zach went to scout camp up at camp Raymond. He unfortunately got sick on the first day and was throwing up until monday night, late. Then he felt better but then got a rash on his body from who knows what and was miserable from all the itching. I think he was more than ready to come home. Sydney then went to EFY Flagstaff June 20-25 and loved it! She had great classes, great friends and learned alot. I love sending here there and giving her every opportunity to feel the spirit and be enlightened and grow spiritually. She had to say good bye to her good friend Taylor Heyman as he went to school at BYU this past week. It has been hard on her but it will get better with time. We have Kyle in tutoring this summer to help prepare him for 4th grade and we are really working on all the kids reading and staying motivated in their school work. Zach made the CNLL all star team again so they have been practicing alot and the games will start this week! Jessie and her kids are coming this week and staying for 8 days, yeah!!

My goal is to write something every day in this journal, I don't want to forget anything about my kids and my life. Chris and I are doing good we are enjoying our new house and we are just busy all the time it seems like. Life is very good.
