How many licks will it take???

Remember the EVERLASTING jawbreaker suckers I bought????

Two weeks later and they are still around, that is except for Aubrey's. She decided to take a hammer to hers on the first day because she couldn't wait to get to the gum in the middle! As you can see, Avery has thoroughly enjoyed every lick of his. How does one possibly get so much on their face??? Will they every be gone???

EFY Bound!

This morning we dropped Jake and his friend off at EFY! What a fun filled week they are going to have. I have such great memories of my EFY days. It is such a great program that really gives you a spiritual boost. I am sure they will come home with many new friends and fun stories to share!

After dropping off the boys the other 3 and me decided to spend some time in SB. Love it up there! They weather was a perfect 74 degrees. We had a great time walking around and even splurged on some huge jawbreaker suckers. How nice of a mom am I???? As we were walking on the boardwalk every child looked at mine with envy in their eyes! I am sure I will regret my purchase when they are asking for them at 7:00am tomorrow! Chances are they will get thrown away before they ever finish them! All in all it was a great day!

Good luck to Jake and hopes for him to have an amazing time. Avery had a hard time saying goodbye!

Happy 4th!

We had such a great day celebrating the 4th today! We started the day off by heading to the Regan Presidential Library for many festivities!
We even had the pleasure of meeting and hearing from George Washington and Abraham Lincoln.

Later we swam and had a yummy barbecue at grandma's house.

For the fireworks we stayed in town and had a great time watching them with cousins. The kids and Nate and I had such a fun day! We missed being in Utah and being with our family there! Happy 4th to EVERYONE!
