This month we did swimming lesson at dimple dell (it was quite a change for us from the outdoor pool that we are used to, but they all learned a lot.) Audrey, Carson and Kate were all in the same class. Graham couldn't get into a class, so we will probably do him in the fall. While the others did their lessons, Graham did splash play on the toys the first week and bouldering on their rock wall the second week. We had fun together.
July was also our big Lagoon trips. We have gotten in the tradition of going two weeks in a row - because we always want to do their bounce back. The first week we hit it so hard - and had a great time. The second week we moved a little slower . . . We watched their show, Graham explored Pioneer Village, and a few train rides. It was a fun couple of weeks.We discovered the Museum of Natural Curiosity this month. The lines and need for close-toed shoes turned us away the first try at it - but we hit is hard the next week, and had a blast. The kids loved the high tech exhibits, and it was fun to let them try a high ropes course.
July is Chad's birthday month - so Happy Birthday to you Chad!On the day of his birthday we did a tram ride to the top of Jackson Hole ski resort, and then walked all 7 miles down. It was memorable because of the extreme storms and hail. We had to pull together to survive. My favorite quote of the day from Chad "I want someone else to plan my birthday next year!"
We spent a week camping in Yellowstone. It was quite a fun experience. We did so many things we hadn't done before. One of the coolest parts was that we were joined by cousins and grandparents as well. It is pretty funny that both brothers planned very similar trips for their families in the same month, almost to the day. Only slight adjustments and we were all together!
We stopped at Bear World on the way home. It was really amazing to see these bears close up. We drove through 3 times - and thought the baby bears were the cutest. It was a good day.
