Summer's 6th Birthday Tea Party

Summer decided she wanted a mommy-daughter tea party this year. We made fans and painted nails. I made everyone a tea party hat and we played pass the parcel and had tea party food of course. She had a lot of fun and she has some very cute little friends. It was fun to have the moms their too. I can't believe she's already 6!

Sea World fun

It is officially humid here so we went late to Sea World and it was still 90 degrees at 10:00 pm. We did manage to get a lot of the kiddie rides in though.
These seals were so cute. The kids are cute too :)


Dale's Triathalon in Jacksonville

A couple of guys in the ward joined Dale for a sprint Triathalon in Jacksonville. We stayed by the famous Sawgrass golf course and watched out guys compete. First they had a quarter mile swim in the ocean.
Then they biked 13 miles then ran a 5K.

They did really well and we were so proud of them.

Amy's Baptism

I can't believe my Amy is already 8.
Dale's parents came to visit for the baptism which Amy thoroughly enjoyed.

Here we all are after the baptism. Doesn't Amy look beautiful?
The two Taylors. I think they played Go Fish 100 times.

This and That

Kendall just earned 4 Webelo pins - Hooray!
Max got into my makeup pencil and had fun drawing on his nose.

On Memorial day we went to Lake Louisa - Max is daddy's buddy.


It rained and rained here and filled up the ponds. The gator came back for a few days.

Summer lost her first tooth.
