Ward Campout


Last Friday night was our ward campout. Jenny, Jack, and I went up early, and Dave and Lydia joined us after Lydia's last game of the Weber County Fair Tournament. We played "Faith Factor."Jenny won her jump-rope competition and I won my "waking up late and getting dressed in a hurry" competition. They also had worm eating, baby food eating, and other fun stuff. After the fun, a thunderstorm came in, so we hurriedly got our beds ready, and pretended to go to bed. The storm passed, so we decided to play games in the pavilion with the "fun" ward members. Saturday morning we got up and played a game of soccer with all the youth in the camp. After the games some kids in the area brought their ponies over and let the little ones sit on them. Then we headed home for a day of rest (much needed after a week off soccer games and camping).

The last week of SUMMER VACATION

Summer went by fast this year. I'm not sure where it all went, but I'm glad it's over. Jenny and Lydia start school on Monday (August 21). Lydia is playing her last soccer tournament of the season. Our summer has been full of horses and soccer. I'll be glad to have a few hours of quiet time while the girls are at school. No more "I'm bored" or "she's looking at me!" comments. That leaves Jack without any friends to play with. It'll be just him and me (and signing time).

Check out Dave's (Robert A.) comments about the ReAl Stadium.

Cousins



We sure had fun with Heidi and Katie visiting us!! Jenny and Lydia played with them all day Monday and Tuesday. Staying up waaayyyy too late and getting up early to go play with the horses. The picture above is the "Leopard Girls." They found some leopard print pajamas at the "shop for free" at Grandma Barker's on Saturday.
