Lagoon Here We Come!!


Our vacation at home.... Lagoon. So this year we were pressed for time so we went on a mini vacation at home to Lagoon. It was Camden's first time to Lagoon. He was really funny. He would want to go on a ride and then change his mind when we got closer to the front of the line. Finally, we just convinced him and put him on the boat ride. He liked it. The only other rides we got him on was the train ride, Ferris Wheel, Puff and the Merri-GO-Round. Taegen had lots of fun and went on lots of rides.

Davis County Fair Time

Every year we go to the Davis County Fair. We have a lot of fun and it's free (except for parking). We go to the petting zoo the the kids fun zone. Then we usually have a little treat and watch some of the entertainment. It's a great way to spend the evening.

The new addition!


So my brother Ray and his wife Laura had their third child. His name is Kevin Lucus. He was born July 14th. So They have three kids now, Brayden almost 9, Anna 2 and now Kevin. Add that to my two and there are five grandkids in my family.

First Grade here she comes!!


Taegen's First day of School. This year Taegens starts first grade. She was a little nervous about going all day long, but she is surviving. She also isn't excited about their school lunches. So everyday she has a ham and turkey sandwich with mayo with and assortment of treats. I would think that having the same lunch everyday would get boring, but not boring enough to eat school lunch. Her teacher is Miss Nielsen who is a strong advocate for reading. Taegen is following that lead and already learning to read quite a few little stories. She is going to be a star reader and read a ton just like her mom!

Taegen Turns Six


Scooby-Doo Where are You? So Taegen had her Scooby-Doo Birthday. She and the other kids had a lot of fun. The first thing the kids did was decorate a picture frame. While they were doing this the Birthday Phantom stole her presents. To get her presents back we had to follow the clues and go room to room and complete tasks to move on to the next clue. First they encountered the mummies in Taegen's room. They had to wrap themselves up like mummies to scare the other mummies away. Then they ran downstairs to freeze dance the those ghosts away. Next they went outside for the pinata. Up in Camden's room they stomped out the ghosts. Down to the front room to refill scooby in a snack toss. Then on to musical chairs. Finally up to wash their hands for the cake and they found the gifts in the bathtub.
