Wow I can't believe that July is over. That really makes me sad. I am not ready for school to start:( Madison is on the other hand. She loves school and everything about it. We went school shopping the other day and she can hardly wait for it to start. I love the month of July. The 4Th, Ute stampede, 24Th, Swimming lessons, everything. My last post was on the 4Th so I will just move along with swimming lessons. Swimming lessons are a must at our house. Brett is terrified of water only because he doesn't know how to swim. So we are learning to swim:) Last year I had to pretty much force Andrew in the water everyday. He really hated it. This year he loved it and so much that on the first day his teacher told him time was up and he was pretty disappointed. He wouldn't even tell her goodbye. He recovered quickly when I told him we could come back. Madi has always loved to swim. She loved her class and her teachers. Brett kept teasing her that she had a crush on them. She did really good she just needs to perfect some things and she can move on.

On the 24 Th we go up to Spanish Fork for the day. We start the day off with the parade. Then we go to grandma nelsons and just hang out until we eat at 5:00. We had a great food and it is always fun to hang out with Brett's cousins and aunts and uncles, and of course his parents, brother and his family, and his sister and her family. We ended the night with the fireworks in Mona. It was a fun day.
My awful picture of the fireworks.

The Ute Stampede. I love those three days. I am so glad that my kids get to join in on the fun of the Stampede. On Thursday morning My brother came and got my kids and took them to the credit union to watch the stock come down main street. I went to but I just went in a different car so the kids felt cool. When we were kids we always rode through the mammoth parade on the Bank Float. So this year the Credit union had a float and all of my Dads grand kids and all of the employee's grand kids and kids rode through. I was excited for them because I always thought it was so much fun. It was so HOT for them but they looked so cute sitting up there. We also had some friends from Brett's mission come and stay and go to the rodeo with us. It was fun having them with us and sharing our traditions with us. It is also exciting living close to the fair grounds. We get to see allot of people from our front porch.

Your kids always look so cute! Glad your kids enjoyed swim lessons. Those teenagers do a good job with the kids I think. That was fun for the kids to be on the float!
I agree, July is an awesome month! I am sad to see it end. I loved all the pictures.
