So cute of grandma and Julene!

Aspen Grove!!

The Elliott family won the water follies!!

Hailey right before her terrifying experience on the ropes course. She rock climbed to the top but when she got half way through the course, she was so high up, she froze. Thank goodness for her camp leader who climbed up and helped her make it through.

Aaron and I did the rope course as well, so fun!

Hailey got a cute new pup for her 11 year old birthday and she named him Petey. He's really weaseled his way into our hears, all though I still get mad when I see a little pile of somethin somethin left behind by him in the house.
We went to Missouri to see 4th of July fireworks at Aaron's grandmas house. Because of the drought in Texas, fireworks were banned. In good ole missouri on the other hand, Aaron's uncle Jim brought 3 days of incredible fireworks! We were up close and personal. We also went and saw city fireworks and made ice-cream in a baggie.
Sam graduated from preschool and started kindergarten, he is doing so well but we are sad that his teacher Mrs. Van Netzer has cancer.

Ryan and Charity got married for time and eternity in the Salt Lake City temple!

Poor Little Blog

This poor little blog has been neglected, meanwhile life has been rushing past us fast and furiously. Since January Emily got her cast off and learned to sit up, crawl and walk again. Grandma Sue and Grandpa Mitch came to visit and helped Seth with his first pinewood derby! Emily has been so much happier running around, I think she thought her lot in life was to be in a cast and watch other people run and play. She would sit and watch the other kids and put her toys on her head. In March Grandma Vicki, Mariko, Justin, Daniel, Skye and Alicia came to visit for spring break. We had a stay-cation, Sports week, we went rock climbing, indoor water park, bike ride, tennis, soccer , miniature golfing and hiking in Palo Duro canyon! It was a lot of fun, and the cousins made it more fun.
