June's Activities

Ok, it has been a really long time since I've posted anything on here. And amazingly it hasn't been because nothing exciting has been going on, but rather the opposite. We have been so busy with summer activities I haven't really had time to post anything. And then Amber got Micah and I into Farm Town on facebook. Then Natalie got everybody into Restaurant City...and it's all gone down hill from there. Now to catch everyone up on what's been going on in June. First, we had our yearly dinner at First Colony Mortgage. They have a big barbecue every year for the customers at the park with food and prizes. They have a big blow up slide and a maze for the kids. There is also a park, so the kids can play on the playground too if they'd like. And the thing the kids enjoy the most is the little train that gives them rides around the park. The kids absolutely love going to this every year, and unfortunately it was raining, which is what it seemed to do all throughout the month of June. Another activity we did in June was Micah's friend told us about a really cool park in Orem, so we went up there to check it out. They have a huge swing with 3 swings on it that spins around like a merry-go-round. It would have been really fun but someone had broken the wooden bar off that you use to push the swings around to make them go fast. We were bummed. So then we trucked over to the pond that they also had at the park and there were some ducks. There were also ducks in the bushes laying and watching their eggs. The kids kept chasing the ducks around, so Micah told Jayden to chase the ducks over by him, so he could catch one. I wish we had brought a camera because it was really funny to see Micah and Jayden chasing ducks. Micah ended up catching one and he brought it over for all the kids to pet and see. It was really fun...and then it rained after we left. I swear the whole month of June involved rain. Our last major activity in June was when we went camping with Micah's parents this last weekend. It was fun...and it rained at that activity too. We were sleeping in a tent and it started downpooring really bad, so Micah got out and put a tarp over us just in case the tent wasn't waterproof. We luckily had no leaks. Then in the morning we went hiking up to some falls. I forgot the name of them. The kids actually did pretty good hiking, but they did poop out towards the end. I heard the hike was 3 miles round trip, but from others I heard it was 4 miles. That's a lot of walking for little kids. When we got home we forgot we had our Neighborhood/Ward Party. We ended up going to the last 30 minutes of it because we were too tired from the hiking to go to the whole thing, and the only reason we went to the last 30 minutes was because Jayden wanted to hit the pinata. So those are the major activites we had in June. I was going to post them all separately on the days that they happened, but I never got around to it.

Now for the 4th of July we are planning on going up to Amber's house. I still need to call and tell everyone. I'm terrible at that, I know. We were planning on watching the Rupert parade with everyone and possibly going the see the new Ice Age movie. We'll have to see. I think I've posted enough. Bye for now.
