What we've been up to...

Alright I have been sick of the computer this summer so I am throwing a bunch of pictures from the summer into one post. Enjoy!

This picture was taken at Brian's friend, Josh Sato's birthday. I bet you can't tell which one it is with the last name Sato, can you? These guys have been friends with Brian since Middle School. They are all more brothers to me than friends (especially Bobby...ok he is my brother). This is a funny picture. We told them to pose like this.

BOATING

Danny loves to drive the boat with Grandpa.


Sam likes to do everything that Danny is doing.

Pretending to talk on the phone.

Danny just loves going out on the boat. He wanted to try wakeboarding just like Dad but maybe we will wait till next year. After all the swimming, he was tired.

Sam wasn't a huge fan of the swimming.

So tired.

PETTING ZOOMy friends Kendra and Kate took the kids to the petting zoo. We had a lot of fun!

Danny rode horses without crying this year! I was so proud of him. I love his cute happy face here.

Haha. If you look closely, you will see that this cow is biting the stroller and pulling Sam to him. It scared Sam a little bit.

This little colt was born right before we came.

CARNIVAL

We went to the American Fork carnival with my aunts and cousins. It was a little trashy but the boys loved it.

Farewell to Micheal Jackson

After MJ died, we had a party to celebrate his life and watch all of his music videos and his funeral. The first time I watched his funeral Brian came in at the part where Jennifer Hudson was singing Will You Be There. I started tearing up so I quickly walked over to the cabinet so he wouldn't see me. I pretended to look for something then came back. 1 second later I started crying again so I pretended to throw something in the garbage. In case you can't tell, I hate it when people see me cry. So I got my act together and went back to the t.v. Again I started crying and didn't care this time because I just wanted to let it out. Brian wasn't surprised. He was such an amazing and inspirational man. I am so sad...still. Anyway, in the picture, here are a few of us who dressed up. We had such a great time watching his videos and copying his dance moves while dancing to his music. It was so much fun but I still get so sad when I think about him. I have so many great memories with his music. We love you MJ!


4th and 24th of JulyWatching fireworks. Danny was inside watching because he still hates them.


We went to the bees game on the 24th and Danny wanted me to take a picture of him here.

And here.

We went to the Willowcreek Country Club on the 4th and they had fun games to play. This was Alex and Patrick, my brothers.

I had to put up a picture of Patrick winning too.

Sam in the water. What a cutie.

We went to my Grandparents house like we do every 4th of July and had breakfast. They bought these shirts for all of the great grandchildren. I was mad because Danny REFUSED to be in the picture. What do you do? Cute kids.
