Summer highlights

 Abby and Isabel got to be on our ward's float in the Pioneer Day parade. They had a lot of fun.  (they are in the house, waving)  We got to see the parade with Pam, Mom and all the cousins just down the street from our house. It was nice to get to, but on the end of the route, so the candy was sparse.  Eventually we ended up with more than enough sugar for everyone. 
 Whitney thought it was hilarious to squirt everyone with the hose
 All the Canada cousins at Newspaper Rock
 Havign fun roasting hotdogs for lunch.  It started out as a rainy day, but cleared up enough for us to have some fun on the mountain


On a quick day where we had Scott home, we made him take us and my mom to Durango, Colorado.  The other times we went, we hit the train museum, but this time we went to a honey store, Honeyville, which sounded a little more fun on paper than it was in person, but it was still a beautiful drive, the girls got to see a clear bee hive and we got some sticky and sweet treats.  We then went to a children's museum which was pretty fun, looked at the river and all the people floating down it (an activity to do when the kids get older) ate in a Mexican restaurant and went to Home Depot (fun for me!)  I was able to get a few things I needed for decorating Whitney's room.  The rest of the summer went so quickly with just a few more hours in the mountains, trips to the park and library,playing with friends and neighbors, and a lot of time missing Daddy.
Time does go ever more quickly, but it was a good summer.
