Visiting Oklahoma
We spent the weekend in Oklahoma with the Nelsons. We got in late on Friday evening and the kids were so excited to see their cousins. Saturday was spent out on the boat and we had a wonderful time. The trip went by way too fast.

Happy 36.6!
After 36 years of playing second fiddle to Christmas, Sam decided to officially change his birthday. He selected August 20th, because he has always wanted a summer birthday. I did warn him that I am only celebrating once a year and there will be no mention of his birthday come December. We started early with presents.
That evening we celebrated at Blue Mesa with some of our friends. The adult session of stake conference was that night, so we ate dinner, went to conference, and then came back to our house for strawberry rhubarb pie. (It was my first time making it, but it was okay.)
Carter gave Sam blow darts. |
Renée chose green glass rocks. |
Gavin selected a torch. |
I picked out this guitar. He has been mentioning that he has always wanted one. |
Marci and Jeremiah |
Mark was out of town so Lindsey joined the Sparks. |
Michalann and Jerry |
Jeremiah took this lovely photo of Sam and I. |
Ben and Sue |
Kris and Peter |
Spencer and Susan did tag team with the kids, so Susan joined us for pie. |
Time for pie. |
The kids wanted to sing and watch Sam blow out candles, so we did a retake the next day. |

Welcome Back Teacher Luncheon
I am serving on the PTA board this year as a VP in charge of hospitality. I am not exactly sure how this happened but that is the story of my life with these volunteer positions. My first big event was the Welcome Back Luncheon. The student appreciation lead and I worked together. I made the cupcakes, Molly made all the meat, and everything else was done by parent donation.
I made white almond wedding cake, black bottom with chocolate frosting, and carrot cake. |
Happy teachers enjoying their lunch. |

Fireworks at NRH2oI love
We spent Saturday evening at the water park. They had a fireworks show that is fun to watch. Carter was really into it.
I love what Sam has done to Carter's hair. |

I just had my Cannon point and shoot, but isn't this a fun shot. |

Thumbs up for an excellent night. |
