Lagoon

This past saturday, Corrie invited us and got us all tickets to Lagoon. She had her annual work party and we met up with her about 4:3o p.m. When we got there, Spring was not feeling good so Jeremy took her home and met back up with us later that night. Summer was so cute with Abbey, she helped her on every ride and they laughed on every ride they went on together. Abbey even braved the Tidal Wave this time. I'm pretty sure it was a little much for her, but when we got off, she said, "that boat was really fun mom". My dad, "grandpa dee" came with us and he had a really good time going on the rides with Abbey. She was so excited that her grandpa went to "Cancun" with her. For some odd reason, she calls Lagoon, "Cancun". We stayed till it closed at 11 p.m. and Abbey was head bobbing and asleep before we got to the freeway. Thanks Corrie, we had a GREAT time.

Scooters & Slip N Slide

I found a great "my first scooter" awhile back on sale at Target so I picked it up for Abbey for her birthday and last week she saw it when I opened my trunk to get her other car seat out. I hurried and shut it, but she was to quick and saw it. I tried to side track her onto something else, but she came back 20 minutes later and said to me, "I need my pink scooter mom". So after listening to her go on and on about her scooter we decided to give it to her. So for the rest of the evening she and Hinckly rode up and down the sidewalk.

After they played on the scooters, Lexi brought the slip n slide over and we set it up in the backyard.

Summer Semester at Little Gym

Abbey has really enjoyed her summer session of Little Gym. Each week they introduce a new theme and the class is centered around the theme. 1) Cowboys 2) Sea Life 3) Magic 4) Princes & Princesses 5) Pirates & 6) Time Travel. Each week they make a craft centered around the theme and Abbey has also learned many new gymnastics tricks and new songs. She has also made some really good friends, Bella, Avery, Cameron, Connor,
Brynley, to name a few of her favorites. She has also learned how to paint and loves to put on an old t-shirt of mine and paint her little heart away.

Pool Party at the Christensen's

Jeff, Abbey & I met Leslee and her fiance', Jared for a swim party at Sharla's house. Abbey even went down the slide a couple of times. She mostly enjoyed playing in the water and hanging out with Hunter. After swimming we all ate pizza and Abbey was pretty tired by the end of the night. Before we left Sharla took Abbey on scooter
ride, and after they were done she said, "more scooter please".

4Th of July

Abbey spent the night with her cousins at Grandma Net's hosue on the 3rd so they could get up early for the parade on the 4th in Sandy. She spent the day with the kids and they had a great time playing! Abbey was really excited to tell me about the parade and all the candy she got.

Later in the evening after Jeff & I finished laying rocks and painting the kitchen, everyone came over for dinner and fireworks. Jeff and the neighbor's (Baker's & Reay's) played pool in the garage and we were able to see the fireworks coming from Thanksgiving Point before we went to bed!

Shiloh's Birthday

On June 28th we went to Judy's for Shiloh's 1st birthday party. We had a BBQ and played with some fun toys that Judy set up in the backyard. After Shi went to town on his cupcake, Judy put the candle in a cupcake for Abbey and we all sang "Happy Birthday" to Abbey!! Thanks, Judy. Happy birthday Shiloh!!

Finally got my Computer Fixed!!

Update from June 23rd:

We bought Abbey a new pool and trampoline this summer. We had a yard sale in May and with the money we made we bought theses items to keep her in our backyard. Jeff fixed it so that when she went down the slide she lands in the pool and she loves it!! She is an adrenaline junky we decided, she is not afraid of anything. Were not sure that is a good or bad thing yet? We also had a bunch of new curbing layed in our yard and we cleaned out all of our flower beds and lined them with decorative rock. This seems to be easier to maintain.

I finally broke down this summer and hand washed my car, I had the inside detailed (Abbey threw up in the back seat) so I cleaned the outside to match. It hasn't been this clean since I bought it.

The last week of June we went with our neighbor's (Tiffany and Zach) and Abbey's cousins (The Olivier's) to 7 Peaks. Abbey was even brave enough this summer to go down the BIG waterslides. She also enjoyed eating her Dippin Dots and playing in the kiddie pool and lazy river.
