Enjoying a summer day!

Sienna, Ramie, Carly, Whitney, Jase and Kylee

We love days where we don't have to get ready and we play all day! That is what we did today.

Our day went as follows:
1. 8:30 Blow up pool/begin filling it.

4. 10:15 Aunt Rissa and girls meet at our house to hang out for the day
5. 10:30 Go in the backyard for some swimming fun (to find swimming pool losing air quickly - this is the 2nd time to use this pool, frustrating)
6. 10:35 Cole gets sunscreen in his eyes and cries for an hour (Cole done swimming)
7. 11:40 Take Conner to basketball camp (Cole falls asleep in the van)
8. 12:30 Larissa and I BBQ hotdogs (Menu: grapes, chips, carrots, beans, KOOLADE)
9. 12:40 We all come in for a delicious lunch
10. 1:00 Quiet time - movie time/Erik wakes up if he even got any sleep?
11. 1:15 Leave to pick up Conner/Larissa goes to eye appt.
12. 1:45 Sienna and Jase go down for their naps (We now have 3 kiddos asleep)
13. 1:45 Conner goes to a friends to play (talk to LaSchelle for a few minutes)
14. 1:50 Read Ensign and relax with kids watching their movie
15. 3:30 Larissa gets back
16. 4:00 Larissa and girls leave (we had a fun day)
17. 4:30 Pick up Conner & friend (Donovan) and Lindsey's friend (Olivia)
18. 4:45 Dad finally gets off to work (his car was having a hard time starting)
19. 5:00 Drop off Jase and Whitney (happy they came over)
20. 5:15 Went to Grandma Jan's to swim with Heather, Lance and boys (tons of fun)
21. 7:00 Hit Burger King, Subway & Bashas on the way home
22. 8:00 Bath time and talk to Aunt Joyce on the phone
23. 9:00 Start laundry/put kids to bed
24. 9:20 BLOG time
Silly picture...I feel so lucky to have my sisters and sister-in-laws so close (talk to LaSchelle often). I love to hang out with them and their kids. I loved visiting with Larissa today. She is so calm and patient and loves my kids even when they are screaming for an hour (COLE)! We love to sit and watch the kids play and share our life happenings. I do love days where there are NO WORRIES, today was one of those days!

lori-thanks for being one of my best friends. We always have fun no matter what we do...even if our kids are fighting or crying! At least we have each other to keep each other sane! Thanks for a fun play day.
