Lehi Miniture Float Parade

Our ward makes a float every year for the last week of June for the Lehi Round Up week. For the past couple of years we have placed very high in the judging. We have taken first place, Sweepstakes and this year, 2nd. The theme was "Remember your first taste of ..." and we chose freedom. We made out of paper mache a VW bug, hippy style that was broken down and falling apart. We even had it smoking out the back.

 
this tree was my favorite. It was sooo cute.


  These floats usually take every sat. plus more toward the end for about 2 months.

 
It's alot of hard work and time but we were very proud of our little car. My kids also walked in the parade with Aaron and I.

Morgan turns 7

Morgan had her birthday and she turned 7. Wow, where has the time gone? She is such a joy to our family and we are so glad to have her. We love you Boggs!



her favorite gift was an ipod shuffle. We put her favorite songs on it and she can just dance all she wants.


kidney stone

It all started with the symptoms of a UTI. Went to the Dr., got an antibiotic. When that didn't work, called the Dr for something stronger, didn't work. By now it was a Friday of course and I was NOT happy!! Went to the instacare on Sunday morning and they ordered a CT scan. So ended up at the hospital ER only to find......a Kidney Stone! 4 mm


called a Urologist on Monday, got in to see him and had surgery on Tues. at 6 am! It was stuck and because of it's size, they went in and got it. Needless to say..... a few days after that I'm feeling so much better! The Dr let me keep it. :)

In June Anson got to go to scout day camp! This is a good time for all the boys. This year, I got to go to help out and we had a blast!

another year down

This year, I have to say that I really lucked out!! We had the most amazing teachers ever. Mrs. Penafiel for first grade. and Miss Kathy Yerkes for 3rd grade. Love them both! Have a great summer and we will miss you. See you next year.

Dance

I put Morgan in dance at the beginning of the year with her friend Alli. This is her teacher Miss Amber who has a little dance studio in her home. Morgan has really liked it. She learned jazz and ballet.

In June they had their performance with 2 danced. The ballet was Tinkerbell and the jazz was to Miley Cyrus. She did great!



Mitchell takes swim...

I put Mitch in swim lessons while the kids were still in school to give him something to do. He did soooo good. He learned to dive and float and alot of safety techniques. His teacher , Alisha is amazing and was so patient.

I was so proud of him. After the first 5 lessons, he stopped crying and swallowing water and really started to really learn.
