July 2017

July 4th
Braxton was able to help with the flag on the 4th of July & 
Marshal looked so cute placing his hand on his heart! 

We always love the bike parade!

Pioneer Day Parade 
Float Preview
Marshal loved the fire truck float. Cort loved the purple peacock float 
as well as the fancy umbrellas. Braxton was so excited to see Boston on a float as well.

Kanosh 24th of July Parade
Travis got out the long horse again!

The kids had fun riding on the long horse.

I always enjoy the fire trucks and their water play.

Life in July
We took grandma and grandpa to the Spanish Fork Rodeo. I saw this picture of the prophets as scout masters at the scout shop and really liked it. We discovered that Cort is as tall as Levi's leg. We enjoyed a car show with Grandma and Grandpa Kunz. We saw a giant bucket for the Rio Tinto trucks and had to snap a picture. They were huge!

Marshal was tired. A beautiful sky. Braxton got a new game for the Wii U with his own money. Cort hanging by the swimming pool after swim lessons. Marshal was upset. 
Braxton got to go canoeing at scout camp.

June 2017

End of School
Braxton worked really hard to earn the Great American Award. He had to complete many of the tasks listed on this flier pictured below. We are very proud of him for all the work he has done to complete this. He is a very patriotic American!

It's time for summer. Braxton was very excited to summer fun. He enjoyed being in Mrs. Martinez class for 5th grade. Cort loved kindergarten and really enjoyed Mrs. Hutchings as a teacher.

Cort Soccer
Cort is a great little soccer player. 
He is very friendly and makes great friends as he plays.

Nothing better than the end the season recognition.

My Little Helper
Marshal is a great little helper. I went over to help Syrina put up her fence 
and Marshal was right there helping us out. 

Fish Lake
The Fish Lake theme this year was Christmas in July and while many dressed up and really got into the theme I was still recovering from my ectopic pregnancy and just barely getting my dizziness under control so we did not dress up. They also had Santa bring the kids some gifts and 
we decorated gingerbread houses.

They had a pinata for the kids to break. As you can see Braxton was not as 
keen on getting his gift from Santa as his brothers were.

The boys having fun fishing.

Spencer brought up 4-square and everyone had a blast.

Braxton's 11th Birthday
It's always fun to have a birthday and be showered with gifts.

Life in June
You never know what life will bring you. One night a deer was running through the neighborhood (top left). We enjoyed seeing my friend Kristen in her play. My boys being cute together and then Braxton showing off his Ninja stole my homework shirt. I almost fell down the stairs but instead took a gouge out of my hand as the railing had been removed. Marshal is very good at being fully in tears and when you tell him he needs to be happy he turns on a fast smiles through his tear stained cheeks.
