July!

 I can not believe how terrible I have been at blogging this summer! I really hope I don't slack this much all the time. We have had a fun summer and I can't believe it is already almost over. Doran will be starting kindergarten in two weeks. At the beginning of July my dad and step-mom, brother and his family, and Jen and her girls all came in town for the fourth. We had a lot of fun with them, but I really didn't get any pictures. I planned on stealing Jen's, but her memory card got lost in the mail. We went to spiderman, which Doran wanted a picture of by the poster.

 Shark boys! We went shopping at the new mall in Salt Lake. They had a store with a shark in it that the boys loved and wanted to get their picture in.

 Brock had more cavities at the dentist. I was heart broken when I heard that he did. I knew that he would have to be sedated because he was so miserable last time they had to fill some. He was pretty crazy for awhile after and I had to take pictures of him acting nuts.

 Trixie got a patriotic shirt for the 4th. I had to cut it off of her after because it was so tight.

 Jayce got to have a sleepover with us while she was here. She and Brock look and act so much the same! They even both sleep in!

 Grandma had a picnic planned for the grandkids and it was going to be so fun, but it poured rain that day! (Which was good for the fires) So it ended up being in Granny's basement. The kids had a blast and it was really cute.

 Mom and Kevin gave Seth and I their table. I love it! Here is a picture of Doran breaking it in!

 Granny turned 70 years old on July 7th! Mom planned a birthday party for her. It was a really fun little get together. The kids got to hula-hoop with Grandma Geneal!

 Granny and her birthday cake.

 The neighbor boy had a birthday party and the boys loved it. They kept asking me to take pictures so they would never forget it. I figured these two will be enough...

 Seth and I were supposed to run two 5ks together back to back. One was Friday night at twilight and the next was the following morning at 7. He ended up having to work both of them and I jacked up my toe. I thought about not running them, but decided I still would and just gave neighbors his registration to them. Seth bandaged my toe up for me. It hurt a lot at first, but after a bit I got used to it. Then I did it again the next morning.

 Doran went on a kick for fish. He wanted me to make him fish all the time and he would actually eat it. One day he asked for fish, so I made him fish sticks. He was so mad. He wanted real fish he said! I hope he never likes halibut.

 Brock likes to get his picture taken. He asked me to take these, pretty handsome!

 Doran finished t-ball! He had so much fun that he decided he wanted to do football and basketball again too!

 Doran has been counting down the days to shark week!

 The last weekend of July we woke up and headed to Wyoming at 5:30 to meet Jen in Rock Springs to get Jayce. Jen and Blake let her come and spend the week with us. We had so much fun having her here. Brock said he wishes we could 'stole' her. I bet her parents won't be too happy about this picture of her chugging a Mountain Dew! ;)
