End of School and Summer Fun

School is out and summer is in full swing!


Tanner at his awards ceremony.
All A's this year!


Kinley passed 5th grade!
Can't believe she is done with elementary school.
She had a great year.


They had a kids vs. parents kickball game


Car day for YW activities.
Checking out the oil filter


Changing a tire


Kinley even got to learn




Maddie and her friends at her awards ceremony


Got all A's this year-even in AP US History!


Trevor went since I was on my girls trip


Trevor took the kids on a fun bike ride


While I was gone, they ate really good! 
They got Chipotle


And donuts


Even Chick-Fil-A!


Girls trip was so fun!
We met up in Utah and stayed at the best Airbnb for a few days.


Ate at a delicious Indian place


My mom took us out to Gourmandies and these are the yummy desserts we tried


The Airbnb had it's own pool and we swam every day.
The weather was perfect the whole time.


Lots of talking and catching up


Played some tennis.
We had our own tennis courts!



And enjoyed the hot tub


Hadn't seen Alli since her wedding last year.
It was fun to catch up!


Went to Cubby's for lunch




Snuggling in our parents bed.
Just like old times!


My Dad taking a nap in my bed!
My Dad came on the girls trip too but was mostly working-other than in this picture!


Went to a KPop dance class


We had such a great time!
Not pictured was lots of shopping, card games, and exercising


Threw another (much smaller) baby shower for my friend Brooke.
The YW in our class wanted to surprise her.


Happy Father's Day Trevor!
Had a BBQ to celebrate




We have been doing the Universal Yums subscription and it has been really fun!
You try different treats/snacks from other countries once a month.



Even got a hug from Maddie!


Swimming since we are in the middle of a heat wave


Trevor won Engineer of the Year award but we couldn't go to the ceremony back in October because they weren't allowing government travel. 
They finally sent him his award!


This summer I am having the kids make dinner and help me cook.
Tanner made omelets for his night and they were really yummy!


Trevor went on travel to Seattle.
He and his coworker hiked Dickerson Falls.


Took the kids to Rita's


Two years as Bishop!


Summer exercise!
We pay the kids for every mile they walk/run.


Went to Virginia Beach for a few days!


The day before, I bought a bunch of snacks and treats to take with us.
The night before we left, this is how much was left of the apple fritters. There were 4!


We got a suite this time.
It even had two bathrooms!
We could walk right out on to the boardwalk from our room.



Hot tubbing



Took the kids to try Thai food.
We figured they would like the chicken pad thai so we got three orders of that, and just one of yellow curry. Turns out they all loved the yellow curry and just liked the pad thai ok.



At night we would walk about 1.5 miles on the boardwalk to Dairy Queen, get a treat, and then walk back.




Got up twice to run a little and watch the sunrise








This hotel has the best pools



Even worked out on the beach workout equipment





We had a great time!
It was so relaxing and fun.
