Summer Vacation

I promised you a broken bones story, but I’m gonna have to keep you in suspense until tomorrow. I forgot about Shell’s new linky that I wanted to join. She is asking us all to write an essay on “What I Did for Summer Vacation…” OK, not really, but she is suggesting we link up some of the fun pics we took with our families this summer. So here we go.

(Oh yeah, and if I want to win prizes, I have to say Link up your Summer Fun for a chance to win prizes from Ubisoft
since I'm on a lucky streak, I thought it was worth the shameless advertising...I could use a new Just Dance game.)

In June we sent all the kids packing for a couple of weeks. They did Girls’ Camp, Youth Conference, Girl Scout Camp, Oakcrest…I don’t have any pics of any of those. But I do have this cute pic of Baby Doll that Teach took yesterday on her fancy camera.

We also went to the pageant in Manti and we spent the 4th of July weekend at Grandma’s. The Dog Walker needed to work on the Backpacking Merit Badge, so we did a couple of camping trips. I took my Girl Scout Troop to the zoo, and we spent lots of time just clowning around...

We bought a couple of Justin Beiber dolls; took the kids to see Cars 2. And kissing...don't forget the kissing!

Did I tell you we signed Sport up for football? He likes it most of the time, except when it's time to take off his helmet. It usually gets stuck around his ears.

We vacationed for a week in Idaho (remember that trip? We took the grandkids too…it was crazy!) We were all pretty happy to be home.

Summer ended for us on July 26 when the elementary-aged kids headed back to year-round school.  It's a good thing, because we were all pretty tired by then. And how did you spend your summer?
