We have been having a fun summer. At least two kids have gone to the pool every day, and on sundays after lunch danny is sad when he gets a no. to the question of "pool now"? The girls all took a session of swimming lessons and are looking forward to taking more next summer. the kids have been having fun riding bikes and playing outside.
I am glad softball is over. I enjoyed the last couple of games a lot more than the first one. Is this because I was figuring out the game. (not having played it since highschool) or because My girls were doing better? I think the girls only lost one game. there were enough girls on the team that for their final game, the coach split them in half and had them play them selves. it was fun to watch.
Jim went to youth conference. It was a quad stake Youth conference in Fargo, N.D. There were 250 youth from the four stakes which included youth from the Souix falls, South Dakota, the pierre District (not technically a stake but quite large.) the Bismark and Fargo North dakota stakes. There were kids from S.D., N.D., Nebraska, Minnesota. Jim says it was lots of fun. he was the only youth from our branch, He met a lot of kids, enjoyed dancing with the girls (especially Treva) and saw a t-shirt he wants that says: I love mormon girls.
We enjoyed both visits from my parents, they stopped by on their way to and from the palmyra pageants. On the way back they had two of my nephews (dellas boys) with them and we took them to the pool. We made pizza for dinner while they were here, Chris seemed surprised that we would MAKE pizza. but no one delivers out of mitchell.
After the kids were all in bed we WII'd with dad, mom just wanted to watch. I like to WII before bed. My favorite is golfing and bowling, there is a cow race that is kinda fun and so is fishing. the three younger girls like to play cooking mama.
