| lyla has been wanting to take swim lessons for the last few years but I never sign up on time (mom of the year!), but this year we finally made it happen:) |
 |
| CANNONBALL!!! |
 |
| she loved it and improved her swimming skills and may now be part fish. |
 |
| lyla has been waiting and WAITING and W A I T I N G to loose a tooth. she turned seven last month and still hadn't lost a tooth. but it finally happened and she couldn't be happier. she was laughing and giggling and just all around giddy. it was exciting:) |

| my grandma, Virginia Camp, passed away on May 23, 2015. it is such a relief to know she is at peace. she waited a loooong time for her reward and now she’s receiving it! Praise the Lord! |

| eli cought a crawl fish at the river. he wanted SO badly to take it home and cook it. i wanted no part of it and made him call adam, who, of course was all in. so they ate it and LOVED it. crazy family of mine. |
 |
| all the kids checking out eli’s catch. he was pretty proud of himself, it was cute. |
 |
| we had church in the park which included face painting. it was a beautiful day and an awesome service. these ladies are good friends. it makes my heart happy to see my kiddos and the friends they have. lucky little ones. |
 |
| my ladies bible study met for our second annual bike ride to dinner at the sandbar. this is one awesome bunch… |
 |
| and that sums up our very fun, very busy, june:) I’ll leave you with this… |
 |
| i love mass camping. our church went to elk flats for a weekend of fun, fellowship and…mud bathing. here is our campsite…we had approximately 27 people in our group site. the kids had a blast. |
 |
| crazy knife wielding banshees… |
 |
| the campground was bordered by a nice little river with hot springs! fuuuuuuun. |
 |

 |
| i didn't overhear, but these look like plotting faces |
 |
| leg mud treatment, for oh so soft skin |
 |
| our contribution to the potluck, a cost-co box of corndogs roasted over the fire. i’m telling you, these were a hit. so if ever you are in the forest and need to bring a dish, here ya go. |
 |
| two of my dear friends leading worship, so thankful for each of these ladies… |
 |
| we had a sweet time with the fam in mammoth last week. our first outing was to rainbow falls. |

 |
| we stayed in a condo at the village. the last time adam and i were here they were just buildings these buildings. it was winter and the only thing finished was the gondola. it was sweet to see the finished product 13 years later:) |
 |
| you know what’s awesome? not only is mammoth a volcano, it’s right on a fault line, too. made me feel safe, safe, safe! |
 |
| of course, adam had to get IN the fault line. |
 |
| eli checking out the shoreline and grandma and the kiddos at convict lake… |
 |
| giddy-up! |
 |
| the obsidian dome was pretty cool. did you know obsidian is the sharpest natural substance? neither did i. |
 |
| the fam! |
 |
| one of the highlights of the trip was the horseback riding. my horse liked to munch on grass while the rest of the train kept going. he would take a few bites and the run to catch up with the rest of the pack, then stop and much again, it was hilarious. he broke into a full gallop a few times, which is not something you usually get to do on a little tour like that. i was laughing so hard i could hardly hold on. the kids had a blast too. thanks grandma and papa! |
 |
| this gets “picture of the trip” as far as i'm concerned. hailey is cracking up because eli’s horse. take a close look… |
