Long Days, Short Months

I have been hoping a camera would magically appear on my doorstep before I posted again. But it's been one month since my last post and... nothing. So I will have boring picture-less posts for a while.

Some highlights of the past month include our trip to my Brothers house in Scottsdale. I put my Sis-in-law in charge of taking pictures for me. So as soon as she sends them I'll post more about our trip. All in all we had a great time swimming, eating, and playing with family we don't get to spend much time with. The only downfall was our air conditioning going out in our car the day after we arrived. Not to mention, we had it fixed one week earlier. So we drove 12 hours home with NO AIR. Luckily the weather was unusually cool that day.

Fun Fridays are going strong. So far we've (me and all the kids) enjoyed miniature golfing at Mulligans and Discovery park with all the kids favorite, Icee's afterwards. Tomorrow we're going on a tour of the new Fire department. Can you tell that our theme this summer is FREE (or at least really cheap.) Everything starts to add up when you take 5 kids with you everywhere you go! My kids are great sports. It's easy to come up with activities that cost money. I've had to get creative with my kids. They don't always agree that going to the park can be just as fun as Liberty Land, but they are getting good at helping me come up with inexpensive things to do. They are stoked to go to the fire station. Who would have thought? Brigham made the comment yesterday, "The 'Browns' went to Lagoon today. Wow, they sure have been wasting a lot of money lately." How funny. Someday Brigham, someday.
