First Day of School

First day of Jr. High. :( She was soo excited and I was sooo sad. My little girl is growing up. She wasn't nervous. I think I was more for her. She gets to start her day off with math. She also has Ceramics and Computer Applications. So far she likes all of her classes. She is having to make new friends, because she doesn't see any of her best friends thoughout the day.

Go D-backs!

Last week we went to a baseball game. We timed it right to eat dinner at TGIFridays right when the game began. After we were done we went down to our seats. It was a great view and it kept Zach occupied for awhile.

97 Degrees Really!

Makeup 101

Sheri, Nikki's mom, and I decided to have the girls get makeup lessons before they started Jr. High. This is the end result.

July Monsoon

We came back from Williams and had to clean out our pool for what seemed like an hour, apparently we had a huge storm when we were gone. So imagine our frustration when we saw this not even an hour later heading right for us:)

Williams, Arizona

We went to Williams with Brents parents, Ann and Elgen, this weekend to get out of the heat. It was only 90 degrees there:) We stayed at a campground that had a park that the kids loved. It was good to get the trailer out again. Victoria stayed with Brents parents in there new trailer right next to us.

Victoria fishing and man can she cast that line out into the middle of the lake.

The fish that Victoria caught.

Grandma and Zach fishing at Kiabab Lake. Zach loves casting and reeling.

We ate at the Twisters Cafe on Route 66.

We went to the Deer Farm just outside of Williams.

Yep I even reeled one in, but I'm not touching it. HELP somebody!

Zach loves fishing, especially with papa.

Zach caught 2 crawfish. This one is so small you can't even see it.

Handstand Contest

Big Horn Sheep

We saw Big Horn Sheep at Willow Creek. They let us get pretty close to them. It's amazing how graceful they are as they jump from rock to rock.

Laughlin

We went to Laughlin with our friends and had a great time!

Sherri, Sheri, and Julie

Brent, Jeff, and his son Kyle

Victoria and Nikki

(yes that's my child with a jacket on in 115 degree heat)

Victoria Wake boarding

We went on a hike near the dam to a place that had hot springs and waterfalls. It was so much fun and a great experience.

The Hoover Dam Bridge from river level. No I won't be driving on it anytime soon.

Bangs

Victoria got bangs. I'm sooo excited. I can see her eyes now:)

Swimming Lessons

Victoria has been taking swimming lessons this summer. She likes it and is very good at it her instructor says. However, I think she could do without getting up early to get there.

Tiny Tots

Zach has been enjoying his Tiny Tots class on Mondays. Victoria has also help with the class. In August he will start preschool.
