Summer's Last Blast!

The weekend before school started we (tricia and kamie) decided to take the boys swimming at the Manti pool. Jess got sick right before we left, so just Jackson and Kaylen came along. The boys had tons of fun on the big water slide and didn't want to leave when it was time to go. :)

Jackson, Kaylen, & Kamie in the lazy river? whirl pool? :)

Tricia & Kaylen on the slide. Kaylen loved the slide and wanted to again and again. Sadly, an adult had to go with him, so we all went down the slide a lot. :)

Kaylen *loves* to swim!

Jackson's 11th Birthday

Jackson had his 11th birthday on August 5th. We had a giant water slide and the kids had a blast! It was really awful weather (in the 60's and rainy,) but everyone still had a great, if chilly, time.

Jackson wanted a water slide cake. We had so much fun making it. We used jell-0 for the water and Jackson used his legos for the people. He even decorated the "tubes" all by himself.

Jess was scared of the slide, it was too big for him this year. :) But he had fun in the pool.

Kamie & Kaylen. Kaylen went down the slide several times (he was good as long as he was sitting on someone's lap). Kamie went down the slide too, (so did hollie, nate, and tricia) but those pictures aren't allowed online. :)
