Busiest June

June ended up being SOOO busy! Between the normal swimming lessons and grass volleyball, we added 2 nights a week of baseball, 2 mornings a week of run club in Mapleton, 2 morning soccer conditionings a week for Whit, Whitney and Owen club soccer practice, and the 2 week long SF Arts Festival with classes every day!  I think I was overcompensating from COVID summer last year?? haha.

Anyway here's Owen and Maris rocking their swimming lessons. Emma did great too in her last year of mom and me.  She can swim several strokes in a row now! Owen decided he loves to swim butterfly, and Maris did so well as the youngest in her Level 4 class.

Owen on 3rd base with a spectacular sunset, and on 2nd base.

Swimming for fun in Payson.

Whit and her soccer girls snacking between run club and agility training.

FHE picture- Jesus (drawn by Maris) and each of us with him.

One day when the older girls were busy, I took the 3 younger on the dripping rock hike.  It was fun and super quick since they are so old!!

Playing in a summer rainstorm in their pajamas!!

Whitney's team did one of their 2 weekly practices at 6:15am all summer.  It was pretty awesome!!  They looked so hardcore out there so early.  And so grown up.  I occasionally ran past them on the river trail, so once I took a picture.

Spanish Fork Arts Festival!  2 weeks of classes every morning for all the kids except Kate- who wanted to sleep in before the summer Shakespeare weeks.

Whitney and Maris took a Tiny Art class and had their work displayed at a local cookie shop:

Emma took a Kinder Art class:

We did 2k race all together:

Emma did a dance class: Princesses can dance.  They did a Tangled dance at the end so of course she wore her Rapunzel dress.

Owen had the joy of his life- a LEGO class!! and here's Whit and Maris again. They also each took one other class.  It was super fun but too much structure for me.

Eric made Young Men's camp happen for our ward, it turned out fun but was pretty stressful beforehand.  He is burnt out from being in YM for so many years, and especially from being in YM/Bishopric without reliable advisors....but he is still chugging along.

Whitney did Grass Volleyball!  And So did Katelyn and I on a women's team- it was way fun!!

June was full, that's for sure!
