I finally have some time to update my blog. It is really the only record of family events that we have, so I thought that I would jot down the events of summer 2010...
We started off our summer with a very rainy camping trip at Yuba Lake. We have made this an annual trip with our good neighbors and friends. Their wasn't a lot of boating with the great weather, but I did manage to go water skiing in the rain for my first time ever. Luckily my friend Kim was kind enough to lend me a wetsuit. One highlight to that trip is that Jon put his wet suit on backwards the first time. My neighbor, Scott had a good laugh at that one.
Next, we adopted a Yorkie named, Maggie. She is a pretty good dog. She is Jackson's dog and he earned her with good grades, hard work and a lot of whining about not having a pet. Now he has one, we will see how long we can handle it.

Sam's birthday is always a fun part of the summer. He is our only summer birthday. His July birthday has been a headache as far as decisions for school goes, but it is always a fun birthday party.

We went to the Aquarium for the much awaited Penguin exhibit. We also hit the Dinosaur Museum a couple of times. We did a lot of swimming and enjoyed our first time at a splash pad. In July went to Matthews cabin up above Kamas and the Ward cabin in Sundance and enjoyed a few barbeques.
Last but definately not least, we went to The Ute Stampede in Nephi and had a great time.
It was a fun Summer!
