June:
School let out June 5th. WAHOO! Kallon had been counting down the weeks since April.
Kallon lost another tooth
Kallon turned 7, holy crap! since when am I old enough to have a seven year old?! We had a Star Wars bday at the splash pad park. We played shoot the storm troopers, water balloon volleyball, free Hans Solo from carbonite and had an awesome Death Star pinata. There were about 30 kids there. We are so blessed to have so many friends here in Temple. We were exhausted when it was all over.
Kallon and Kate did swimming lessons at the Summit
Karly thought she needed to learn to swim too and stumbled into the pool while I glanced away for a only a second. Mom of the year award goes to me.
Celebrated Cory's 31 bday. holy crap! I can't believe we are in our thirties.

that extra kid is my cute nephew
July:
* The kids and I flew to Idaho July 3rd. That was fun (insert sarcasm)
* Celebrated 4th of July by going to the Pocatello parade, swimming, a combined family bbq, and fireworks. Except we watched the fireworks as we drove away from the fairgrounds because the show started over an hour late. Fun was had by all
* Cory joined us in Idaho about four days after the kids and I left. It was supposed to be two weeks.
He can't live without us! :)
* Worked out with my sister everyday. She kicked my butt. It was fun to have a workout buddy
* Many trips to Salt Lake City. My favorite one was with my mom and sisters and eating at Blue
Lemon, my new fav.
* Karly started walking, FINALLY!! (thanks Kyle)
* Went on many fun boating outings.
* Kallon & Kate learned to surf with uncle Daniel.
* Cory, Kallon, Kate, and I went to Lagoon.
* Mountain biked (I really miss it)
* Became a DoTerra consultant, call me. ;)
* It was really a fun, relaxing time. It was so good to see all our family after so long.
How we all felt after arriving back in Texas
August:
* Returned from Idaho and tried to get back into routine. Still working on it.
* Getting kids signed up for school and extracuricular activities
* Cory and I started P90X again after a 3 year hiatus. Yes, we are crazy.
* Cory has been on Radiology rotation and I absolutely love it! I think he has chosen well. Cory is also in the process of getting his application for interviews ready. I can't believe the time has come. I am excited and nervous about the changes going to be happening in our family come June. March 21, 2014 is the date that decides our fate.
* Kallon starts 2nd grade on Monday and I cannot wait, again, mom of the year.
* Kate will start with her pre-school co-op. She is super excited.
* Karly is excited to be home with her mom while the kids are at school
Here's to another great year!
That about sums up our summer. It has flown by but we sure played hard.
