Well we finally have summer weather here. YIPEE! This is my favorite time of year. I love gardening (diggin' in the dirt) and creating projects in my yard. We are heading up to Jackson Hole in a few days. Tyler has to go there for work, and we're just tagging along. It's my birthday on Tuesday and I'm not happy about the age I will be turning! YUCK! I don't feel this old at all! We'll be doing some shopping and swimming at our resort while we're there and probably stopping by Lava Hot Springs on the way back.

Kayla just returned home from Cheer camp today. She learned so much and they helped them with their jumps, their tumbling, their lifts and how to do cheers and dances. They won the "spirit stick" (which is the coveted stick by all cheer teams, and if you drop it (EVER) then you have to re-earn it...so it's passed on to each girl "Very" carefully of course. They also won the award for best Team, Unity and Spirit. I was so proud of her!
