Summer Fun and Myrtle Beach Trip

Trevor giving a thought at our ward 4th of July pancake breakfast


Made the masterpiece


Decorated our house with flags


Had some friends over for a 4th of July BBQ and fireworks


They had a great time


We just set them off in our backyard



The kids really liked lighting them and running away


Helping clear out some branches in the neighborhood


Got new wheels for the van


Got the dirt bikes


They are electric and don't make much noise


Perfect for the kids


Set up in Trevor's shop


The kids love them

She is doing great with them


Younger girls camp
Kinley and I went with Trevor.
We brought them a Chipotle dinner and had a devotional with them. Trevor talked about family night and about his mission and brought them lots of Mexican treats to try.


Older girls camp
Did the same activity but with the older girls


It was just me and Kinley while everyone was away at camp so we ate out at Panera for lunch


I made about 450 cookies for our ward.
We told everyone it was to celebrate Pioneer Day but it was really for Trevor's birthday (he didn't want the whole ward to know).


Everyone loved them!


Dropped Maddie and her friends off at FSY.
The leader of their session is in our ward. 
She had a great time!


Celebrated Trevor's birthday while Maddie was gone

Took the kids to see Toy Story 5


This girl got her driver's permit!
100% on the first try


Trevor has been teaching her and she is doing great
