Tom's 39th

Tom's birthday was yesterday and we got to spend it doing something he LOVES. We headed out to the raceway in Kent for SIR's Good Guys Nostalgia Races. It was pretty cool seeing all the old cars. He cared about the motor. I cared about the purdy paint jobs:) Then we got to stick around for some racing. It was pretty cool to see him teaching his boys all about the ins and outs of racing there. His stories from when he was racing were pretty funny, too. Priceless. 

Oregon 2012

We took a few days off and drove down to Oregon for a lil' family reunion on my dad's side. It was so nice to get away. We had VERY little sun, though. The boys didn't seem to notice because they wasted no time divin' into that freezin' cold water. I thought I would walk out a ways, but...AAAAAHHHH! It was freezing! I couldn't feel my toes. Dern! Crazy boys.

DOUBLE brrr. Scott's boogie board flew better than our lame kite.

My boys at Cannon Beach.

Of course we HAD to stop at the Tillamook factory for some cheese and ice cream. I got pumpkin. NUMMERS

Bohunk and I at Cannon Beach

Me in my sweater and the boys in their swimsuits.

Michael fighting with the dragon kite that refused to fly for more than 2 seconds. GRRR.

Papa came to train the dragon, but, alas, it DID NOT WORK!

Oh, Say Can You See

Fourth of July was at my parents' house. We had a BBQ after I got off work, played in the yard, visited with family and watched fireworks. Very low key, just right.

My Mama made me my FAVORITE jello recipe! SO good. She even made a second bowl for me to take to work...but I just couldn't do it. I didn't want to share. Tee hee hee.

 Sixta's mom is here visiting from Guatemala. She is so funny:)

I think Justin liked the fireworks:)

Papa playing badminton with his grandkids and Diego:)

Awwww...my Michael:) Wuv this guy!

Even though Dallin was fighting his allergies all night, he mustered up enough energy to help light the fireworks. I guess the grass allergies are really bad this year. His eyes were almost swollen shut on Sunday. Poor buddy.

All Stars

Both Dallin and Michael played All Starts again this year. Scott is still too young...he was so disappointed. They did great. Dallin and Michael both pitched. Dallin hasn't pitched very much this season. He has tendonitis in his right elbow, so he's been nursing that. He did great, though. No walks, and struck out 5 in the 2 innings that he pitched. I really like watching them both on first base, though. Now that that is done, we can focus on getting some summer fun in. Maybe to the lake today:)
