• Last week Addy and Brynn went to a Girl Scout Day Camp put on by our Service Unit. Since not all of our troop could attend that day camp I put one on for our troop this week. Tuesday we did lots of crafts and songs. Wednesday we went to the new Children's Museum, out to lunch, and then swimming at the Legacy Center and Thursday we went bowling and for ice cream cones. It was a busy, exhausting week but the girls all had a great time. The funny part I completely forgot to take any pictures until Thursday but we were missing three girls! Big thanks to Marci for being a terrific co-leader!

•  Saturday morning I ran the Utah Valley Half-Marathon. It was my first half-marathon I ever raced! It was a great distance and all I could think was "I'm so glad I'm not running the full":) The first few miles were hard because I had a huge side ache but the rest of the race was great.

• Of course I ran with Merri (but she ran much faster than me:). Here she is snuggling up in the early morning in her foil sleeping bag. The things we do to run a race! 

• Saturday afternoon we headed up to Sandy to play on Faith's team. Shawn had called and needed a couple of extra players for Faith's team that he coaches. Addy and Brynn were all about playing and they did really good...especially since there were no boys playing! It was super cool watching Addy step up and she even made a goal.
• Bodee, Mia, and Noah hanging out and watching the game!

• Sunday was Father's Day! Todd really is a terrific Dad! We are all so lucky to have him in our lives! He is funny, silly, playful, hard-working, loyal, loving and a worthy priesthood holder. The kids really can't ever get enough of him. Todd bought himself a pistol a few weeks ago as his Father's Day gift but we had to also get him a new drill since his has seen better days! We picked him out a Makita Compact Drill and he really likes it!
• Sunday was 3rd Sunday Dinner/Father's Day Dinner. June is Brynn's birthday month as well so she got to pick out her dessert for dinner. We bought a cheesecake and make her favorite peanut butter blossom cookies with ice cream! Beautiful Brynn! 
• The kids always love 3rd Sunday Dinner but even more so in the summer when they can stay late and play with their cousins!
