Summer

Ok so I totally did this post wrong (you can tell I've been away from the blogging world for way to long) the above post is the first part of the summer and this post is the last part of the summer until now.

Me and my girls, all of us hanging out in the hospital It was a wonderful day seeing my family.

In the hospital with Kayelee just a little over a week ago

The first day of school



We took a quick trip to Utah since most of our summer plans got changed because of Kayelee being in the hospital so here are a bunch of pictures from that trip.

All the cousins who went

My Birthday I really am 29 my how the time flies

Joe and I in Park City, we spent my birthday there Carol watched our kids. We had a blast it was so fun and a much needed get-a-way.

Daryl and McCall, Dan and Kanessa, and Amanda came up and did the alpine slide and coaster with us it was so fun!!!

I bought the material to make these skirts right before Kayelee went into the hospital the first time in April and I finally got them made this summer I was worried at first but in the end I think they turned out alright.

We made homemade ice cream in a bag

Swimming lessons:

Kayelee got her pheresis line out towards the end of July so we were able to catch the very last session of swimming lessons. The kids had so much fun!

No she didn't do swimming lessons but she did end up in the pool once

Kyle

Kambree- This girl is amazing, she has taken level 1 for three years and finally passed she can jump off the diving board and swim all the way to the edge by herself. I was so excited for her. One of her favorite things to do is swim.

Kayelee- she got to swim this year YEA! she passed level one too.

We were supposed to go on a cruise this summer with all of Joe's brothers but Kayelee ended up in the hospital so we couldn't go so all his brothers came up a few weeks later and went camping with us, it was so nice of them and we had a blast!

Singing Barbie songs in the trunk of the van

There is a snake on the end of that stick and if your lucky you can go swimming in that green pond right behind ya.

An act of Love... My Friend from highs school Amy sent these to my kids after she had heard about Kayelee being in the hospital. My kids love them! Thanks Amy that was such a sweet fun treat in the middle of our craziness.

This was just a day in the back yard swimming look at their faces and just the captured moment of play... I wish that childhood enjoyment could last forever.

Amongst all the craziness of the summer with Kayelee's health issues we have still found time to make some great memories. I cherish my children!!! Life is hard but it is GOOD!
