June 2017


Arlee June's Birthday:
We had a swimming party at Poppy and GiGi's house!  Arlee June wanted a princess party this year and her castle cake was beautiful! She is our little princess and she had a great princess party! She had a great turn out and everyone had a great time! Daddy even surprised her and had the sno cone truck show up and everyone got sno cones. She was so surprised and everyone loved it!

Swimming/diving board:
Jace and Arlee June LOVE to swim and they love the diving board! They both do an awesome job swimming in the deep end!

Jace reading:
Jace has been practicing reading this summer and he is making great improvements and trying hard! I am very proud of him and how well he is doing! 

Magic show at the library:
This summer we went to the library to see the magic show! The kids really enjoyed it! It was a good show!

playing Grizzlies:
Jace and Arlee June love going to the Grizzlies games and they "play Grizzlies" at home all the time! They get all dressed up in their jerseys, shorts, basketball shoes and headbands! It is hilarious to watch! They pretend to announce the players names and they run out as they are announced. I love watching them!!!

Swim lessons:
We had swim lessons with Mrs. Susan again this year! They learn SO much each year! Arlee June is swimming great in the deep end and jumping off the diving board! Jace has learned how to dive and is swimming like a fish! They LOVE the water and I am so glad they are both awesome swimmers! 

Movie Night upstairs:
We had a movie night upstairs with popcorn, snacks and all! The kids loved it! They laid in the floor with Babe and enjoyed watching the Troll movie! 

Knox and Rachel Grace's party:
We always love to get together with our cousins! We had a blast celebrating Knox and Rachel Grace at their birthday party! lots of play time, cake and ice cream!

River time:
Construction at the cabin has been going on all summer and we can't wait to see the final project! We love going to the river and spending time together! We also love having family and friends come to spend time with us! We create so many memories there and can't wait to make even more when the house is finished!!

Visiting daddy at work:
The kids love to go to daddy's work and visit! Jace still says that he is going to work for daddy when he grows up! 

Rachel Grace's Birthday dinner/spend night: 
We went to Cory and Lindsay's house on Rachel Grace's actual birthday and had dinner and ice cream! Then the kids stayed and spent the night! They were so excited!!! 

4 year old check up:
Arlee June's 4 year check up went great! Doctor Owen said that she looks great! She got shots and took them like a champ! She didn't cry until they put the bandaids on. She is such a big girl!!!

Beach:
Our favorite part of the summer!!!! We LOVE the beach! We had a wonderful week! There was a tropical storm out in the ocean so we had lots of wind and rain for two days but we made the best of it. We played games and still walked around outside when the rain wasn't bad! The kids still swam in the rain! But overall we had a great trip! Jace and Arlee June were excited that Knox, Rachel Grace and Ava Lynn were there this year! I love watching them play together!! 

Father's Day:
We love getting to celebrate Lance at the beach each year! And I also get to be with my dad! Lance is an amazing dad and is loved so much by the kids!! We are very blessed!

Pool days with Smith boys:
We had several pool days this summer with Courtney and the boys! We enjoy getting together with friends and they all love to swim and play! They are all water babies for sure! 

Gymnastics:
Arlee June is still in gymnastics and enjoys it! She is always flipping and flopping at home! 


The month of JUNE was great with lots of relaxing and swimming!!
