It has been a while since I have posted anything.  So to catch up on our doings this summer here are pictures.
On May 21st we took the kids for a walk and picnic by the Logan River. 
 For Les' birthday I made him a cake with inspiration from mint chocolate (one of his favorite ice creams).  There are mint chocolate chips in the cake and mint candy on top.
 My brother Daniel blessed his newest edition on June 5th.
On June 6th we went to Liberty park in Salt Lake.  The girls fed the birds . . .
 and played in the water.
 Sammi started throwing a tantrum when water playing was just beginning so she didn't get to participate.
 Here is Les in his new suit and when we went to see the very pink "Pink Heals" firetruck.
 We have done many things at home too!  Here we are playing with sidewalk chalk.
 We ride our bikes everyday!
 Here are the hats we got to decorate at Texas Roadhouse when Les took us there for my birthday!
 We also had swimming lessons from June 20th - 30th and July 5th - 15th (today).  Here is Khloe doing Alligator Crawls.
 This is Emma practicing her kicks.
Last of all Samantha jumping off the side of the pool (yes on purpose).
We went out to the Basin for the 4th of July but that weekend requires a post of its own.  So that is our update for the last little while.  Oh I should share a funny story.  Les had taken the girls to the store when they saw a big van full of kids.  Les said, "Look at all the kids in that van."  Emma replied with, "I bet they had to go to the hospital a whole bunches of times to get all those kids!"  Les told her that they could be babysitting some of them.  Emma said, "I don't know Daddy, some people have lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of kids!"  It made Les laugh so he called to tell me so then I laughed too!  I hope you enjoyed it.
