Summertime

We started off summer with a BANG!! Bayli graduated, she did it! A miracle really. Just Kidding. She was an amazing student and it was a breeze, she did stress too much over the last couple years but i guess it paid off. 4.0 and a full ride scholarship to USU as an ambassador. Which is a leadership position that they had 600 applicants for and picked 30. Bayli is a superstar!! She is going to move mountains.

We have had fun swimming, water sliding, glamping (at the cabin), boating, parks, bike rides and scooter rides.

Foster is wake boarding with Brennen in this pic.

 Presley isn't a huge fan of watersports. We have to really bribe her to participate. I guess its just her soft spot cuz she is one tough cookie. Once the girls got of the tube Tucker and Foster couldn't get enough and foster was thumbs up the whole time.

We were at my moms one day and Foster was sitting at the bar. I was quietly watching him. He picked up my moms readers and put them on, then picked up the paper and started reading it. My heart melted.

Collins and Fosters relationship is really blooming and fun to watch grow. They either love each other or hate each other. Collins loves to be like Foster. She also loves to be as tough as Foster and will be the first to put up a fight. She is kinda a mean little terd. I am really hoping she grows out of it.

 We went to the cabin over the fourth of July. We have taken a lot of pics on this rock up franklin basin over the years.

The sky was amazing on our hummer ride one night.

 We decided to take a mile hike to Cresent lake. We used to do this at least yearly as kids on the horses. Lets just say the trail was not nearly as blazed as it use to be. We were weed-wacking it most the way. Good thing my mountain man of a dad was with us or else we would have been lost. The mosquitos were horrid once we got there so we just stopped long enough to snap a couple photos and then we were out.

 We have loved that Grandpa has a boat and have taken it out several times. Foster wake boards with his dad, knee boards with his mom and rides the tube with his cousins. Collins will tube, but this day we were making a Foster sandwich as we relaxed on the boat ride, while Bayli and here cute friends were getting whip-lash on the tube. SO MUCH FUN to WATCH!

 Dad and Grandpa did the logan peak trail run this summer.

Foster went with the young men to wash the fire trucks and of course they gave him a ride when they were done.

I went for a quick ride up birch on a monday after work, it was really windy so I made it to the trailhead and decided I better turn around instead of going further. When I got to the bottom of the dirt road the wind was still howling and tara and roy were getting ready to head up I told them not too because it was so bad, but they went anyways and they went less than 100 yards and this tree had fallen across the road. It had just missed me by minutes!!

 Foster was jealous of tucker and all his baseball gear, so Brennen busted out his old stuff and Foster was ready to play.

 I think he was tired. He played way to hard with his cousins this day.

 Camping.

 A photographer captured the most beautiful picture of the Logan Temple.

 Lots of fun on the slide this summer too.

 Another day of too much fun. Fell asleep at 7, and he was not waking up. We tried!

 Learning how to take Champ on the bike. He loves to play with him. Just last night after dinner he said mom I am going to go hang out with Champ for a bit is that ok?
