Happy Birthday Megan!! 30yrs old

For one of my very best friends, Megan Rapier, me and our other friend threw her a surprise party for her 30th b-day.  It turned out so cute and fun.  The best part was Megan had no idea, and was in shock the entire night.  Nate Clements jumped out of a giant present and scared the crap out of her, funniest thing I think I've ever seen.  We are so lucky to have so many awesome friends!!  Happy 30th Meg!!
Me and My Girls!!
This was so dang funny!  We need  to post the video on YouTube!!

Abby's cheer camp and parade

Abby signed up for the Springville High Cheer camp this summer.  She didn't want to go on the first day since none of her friends were doing it, but she stayed and when I went to pick her up she was grinning from ear to ear!  She had so much fun and didn't even complain about getting up early  for two weeks.  They learned a couple dances and cheers which they performed on June 10th at their Cheer Spectacular where we got to see all the different age groups perform.  Abby practiced at home really hard the last week and did an awesome job.  Rah Rah!  All the girls that participated got to be in the Art City Days Parade on Saturday.  Lots of fun!
Doin the dance!

Fishing at Wasatch State Park

We were invited to go to Wasatch State Park with Darren's sister Tiffany, and their boys.  Abby was sad her girl cousins weren't there, but Jackson and Krew had fun with Matthew and Austin.   It was a little chilly and quite windy, but it was fun to hang out with the Caldwells, we always have fun with them.  I was quite impressed (and so was Jackson) that Aunt Tiffany was brave enough to put the worms on Jacksons fishing hook.  There was no way I was going to do it!  After, we went and had lunch at the Dairy Keen (of course!  where else would we eat in Heber!)mmmmm, yummy.

Abby turns 11

Abby chose to go to Brick Oven for her birthday dinner(delicious!).  Our server made it very special for her, and she loved it when they came out and sang to her.  They brought her a lollipop sunday that she was kind enough to share with her brothers.  I can't believe she's 11!
(Apparently I had a lot to say, cause I wasn't able to stop talking for the picture.)
