The 4th of July was spent with my parents while Troy worked. He is working the summer for his brother stocking ice and we have not seen him a whole lot. Back to the 4th...we went to Inkom for a celebration and saw some of the Grover relatives! We spent the morning watching a parade and then the afternoon in the park listening to live music. The band was very good and they played a variety of music. We headed to McCammon and went to a ward dinner. One of the band members from the afternoon was there with his wife singing and they did great. It was very enjoyable and we all had a great time. We watched the fireworks in Pocatello and headed home.
My friend and I got together one day t o make freezer meals. This was fun to spend the day in the kitchen. I loved preparing everything and coming out with 7 meals. It was a fun time.
We went to a family reunion the middle of July. It was my grandmothers family. Her brothers had not spoken for thirty years and embraced each other on the reunion day. It was great to see foes forgiven and friendships renewed! I don't always get along with my brothers, but I cannot imagine going any amount of time not speaking to them! It was neat. Then we went to the parade and rodeo. It sprinkled on us after the parade and rained for a bit. We got ready to go to the rodeo and I kick myself for not taking a picture. My dad bought all of my kids chaps. They were all decked out and so cute! Especially Kaebryn! So cute and not one pic! During the rodeo it started to sprinkle....then rain....then pour! We had walked to the rodeo so we had to walk home in the pouring rain. I had Tevan in tow and packed Keabryn home...a half mile. It was awful!!! We were soaked to the bone! I was glad the kids had on chaps, it kept their legs dry. Daeson stayed with my dad and brother at the rodeo. We had my brothers kids with us. W e gt dry and laughed about it.
The boys and I had dental visits this month....yuck! Tev had a surface cavity, Daeson had six holes...not small cavities, we are talking HOLES in his teeth. I had a perfect visit and the hygenist told me my teeth were very clean! Yay for clean teeth!!! I did have to get my crown fixed, it had a gap in it. Tevan did surprisingly well for his first dental cavity. Daeson not so much. We have been referred to another dentist to get him sedated. Sheesh! I'd rather pull the dang tooth!!
Happy Anniversary to Troy and I. We celebrated our 12 years of marriage on the 21st. Or anniversary was the 20th, but Troy worked til 10:30 or 11:30 that day. I took the kids to the splash park and had fun. The 21st my Aunt Lisa and cousin Katie came to watch the kids. We ate dinner at home, then went to the mall to walk around. After we went to Rock of Ages. I liked the music for sure, but there were some cheesy parts in it. I did like the story line. It was good, and who knew Tom Cruise could sing?? We came home and chatted with Aunt Lisa for a bit. It was nice having the kids to sleep!
Troy had a couple days off this last week so we went to West Yellowstone for the day. We took Kaebryn and the boys stayed with Aunt Kayla. Thanks Kayla! We walked around and ate dinner. It was nice to get away for a day. The next night Troy slept on the trampoline with Daeson. The next morning he could barely move. It was awful. The next day he had a message and after he could not walk. So, off to the Doctor yesterday. He apparently pulled some muscles in his back and is now out of work for a few days. It's nice to have him home, but he can't do anything but lay around. He is on some pretty heavy muscle relaxers. But I will take what I can get.
Kaebryn is learning to walk. She tries without even being coaxed now, maybe she will walk! She still puts everything in her mouth and eats whatever she can get her hands on. She is talking more and more. We love her...not her sleep schedule, but her.
I decided to watch kids again. So, I have been getting geared up for that. I have a two-and-a-half-year-old and a baby a couple months older than Kb. It will be busy, but I get to be home.
Our basement flooded in all the excitement. A pipe broke in the wall. We had it all taken out and carpets dried, now we just have to get it all put back together. I am having a hard time finding a sheetrocker who will do a small job. It was just a bit of the ceiling and four feet wide that got damaged. I will do all the painting, but I cannot sheetrock or texture. I cannot believe that one tiny pinhold can cost so much!
I got put in as the Super Saturday craft person...so if anyone has fantastic ideas, let me know!! I need all the help I can get.
Well, I think that covers it. No pictures, my computer has a virus. No access to them! But I will try to get it fixed soon, until then...
