Happy 4th of July

On the 4th we went up Big Cottonwood Canyon and took Guardsmans Pass over to Park City. Along the way we ended up in a parade at Brighton ( long story) and found some snow. I had to have a picture in the snow on the 4th of July.

Swimming Fun

So most everyone knows that I always seem to have other kids at my house. I hardly ever just have my own!!! Last Friday we had a little swimming party in our blow up pool. The kids love playing in it. Here is Kendyll, Emalee, Victoria, Zach, and Nathan posing before they got all wet.

Trip to the Zoo

Emalee and Mom "Dancing Queens"

Emalee's class learned this dance about 4 weeks before the recital. She loved it. She loved the bikini and she loved how much her dad would shake his head and cover his eyes whenever she did the dance.

Okay so they offered an adult dance class at Emalee's dance studio this year and I got roped into taking it by one of the other moms. What I didn't know at the time was that they wanted us to perform at the recital. So I ended up performing at the dance recital. It surely wasn't the best dance ever but I had a good time. I just kept telling myself that it's good to push yourself to do things that make you uncomfortable and put you outside of your comfort zone. Well this certainly did that. Overall I think we didn't look to bad for a bunch of mom's.

Emalee's Dance

Here is one of Emalee's dances that she did for competition. They were so cute. This video was when she performed at her recital at the Gallivan Center June 21st.

Finally We Have An Appointment For Zach

So everyone knows the struggles we have had with keeping Zach healthy. Trust me when I say it is a full time job. We have been trying for probably close to a year to get him into one of the Pediatric Gastro Doctors up at Primary Children's. The way that they schedule is they have one day a month you can call and leave a message to get an appointment. If you are lucky you get an appointment, if you are not you are just told to call back the next month on a certain day. ( Also they never have the scheduling on the same day so you have to keep track of what day they say to call back for that month). So today is my lucky day!!! They actually just called me and we finally have an appointment for September 2ND at 9:00 AM. Now I have to hope and pray that maybe we will finally start getting some answers as to what this kid really has. We have had diagnosis from anything to-- mom is just babying him, ( Yes I like cleaning up diahrea and vomit), to Irritable Bowl Syndrome maybe, Chrones Disease maybe, and several others that I can not even remember the names of right now. So here goes another try and I know this time we are actually going to get some answers and not just it might be this or it might be that. So I will let you know how it goes.

What a day!!! May 30th, 2008

So this was quite the day. Ryan graduated from 6th grade!!! Emalee recieved an award at the school award assembly, and Zach finished the day off with a T-Ball Game. Here is a movie Rich and I put together of our day.
