• This week was spent getting into the routine of summer. The kids woke up every day, completed their chores, practiced reading, and worked a few minutes on either writing or math. 
• We played outside a lot and made gifts for Dad for Father's Day. The kids made a card with their traced hand pointing downward that said, "You're the best Dad, hands down!". They girls also filled out a questionnaire and answer questions about their Dad. It was fun to hear their answers. We also picked out a new week trimmer for Dad. It loves to work in the yard and he really needed one.
• On Friday we went up to Seven Peaks Salt Lake and met up with all of our friends from the U. Although I don't miss the living conditions at the U, I really miss the people. These ladies are AMAZING! It was good to spend time with them and be able to chit chat with the ladies.
• I am so grateful that Todd is such a wonderful husband and father. The kids eagerly wait every day for Dad to walk in the door. They yell and scream and come running when they hear come in. I think that says it all:)
• I can't believe I didn't get a picture with Todd and his kids for Father's Day but I did get pictures of Brynn because for our Father's Day dinner we also celebrated all the June birthdays the same day. Brynn is the only grandkid with a June birthday so it was all about her:) She just can't wait for her real Birthday!
