June Times

A new record in the house. She stayed asleep till 10:30 am...I want the chance to beat this record๐Ÿ˜…

Service with a smile and a lot of paint.

We had the chance to join EM 14 in a service project for the city. The kids
loved it. 

Jaycie may have gotten paint on her hands and other places

Jos had so much fun helping

While the kids play fences get painted

Isaac was thrilled his cousin Max was moved to Utah

Lesson time


Isaac was lucky to go to the BYU football camp. Its awesome that his uncle got him
the hook up.

Jarom joined in on the fun one of the days


Caroline is visiting from Texas. She came to see us and teach us some new line dances. 10 years ago she taught us line dances in Oklahoma all night when my brother was playing for OU.


Uncle Jay gives the kids the best BYU gear ever

Jarom went to his first day camp and he loved it. 


He looks really comfortable shooting that gun






I really miss having my little brothers around. I love when they come into town.
 Even if it's only for a day or two.


When we were younger Matt was always the cuddly brother. Ceej not so much.
When they would go to school Matt would want to hug and kiss CJ good bye and he would give him his shoulder. This picture is kind of reverse of reality LoL

One day we decided to make soda bottle rockets. It entertained the kids for hours. 

Pouring in the vinegar for his rocket

Isaac getting ready to launch

he other day I was driving with Isaac when he proudly told me he felt like a man. When I laughed and asked why he said, " Cause my armpits were Staannkky!" I didn't realize B.O. was something for a boy to look forward to๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Just waiting at the movie theater for everyone else to join 

They wanted to sleep by each other while we watched the movie

Daddy and his girls

She just looked so precious we had to take a picture of Jaycie

Joslyn made a tent for her and her siblings

Mana 5K

The older boys and I did mom's Mana 5k. It is such a fun event to go to. Mom's Queencenter does such a good job putting it on. The boys of course beat me nib time. I had a nice walk with Muryha and Rion because every time I tried to run I got tired after like 10 seconds...pathetic I know. We have made this a tradition and look forward to next year's. (Koki's cousin had a baby blessing so he took the younger three kids or they would have been there too.)
Gideon coming in strong with so many things in his hands

Isaac was so excited for all the vendor booths after the race he was hoping to win 
stuff from the raffle but sadly didn't

Jarom did such a good job keeping up with his brothers

My crew coming in slowly but surely


Rion was nice enough to walk it with me and Muryha even
though she could have easily ran


Mom and dad with their friends

Tonya's kids stopped by to say hi

Father's Day

Koki is such an amazing dad to our kids. He's the one that stays up with the kids to do their projects. He coaches them in their sports, listens to them when they're down, and always makes a point to let them know he loves them. Me and the kids definitely are blessed that he's ours. 

Breakfast in bed to start the day

Koki took the kids to the cemetery to spend time with his dad
while I stayed back to get his dinner ready.

The kids with their daddy



Dinner time at the Summer's

Our circle of love to share how much we love the dad's in our family

Lagoon

We told the boys if they got good grades this year we'd take them to Lagoon. They did it! We had Aunt Malia and Nikos watch the younger three kids and we were able to go with the boys. It was our first time going. Well everyone except for Koki. We got there soon after opening and stayed till it closed. It was a great long day and the boys loved it. 
I made them take a picture at the front of the park

I love that you can take food into Lagoon. We made sure to pack a lot of snacks and goodies.
We staked out our table and then we were off. 

Roller Coaster time






Tor's family came a little after us. It was fun for everyone to be together. 


A quick picture before we screamed our heads off


Taking a break to fill our stomachs

Rene and her kids finally joined us and the party just got better

Driving for Jarom



Just a little break under the shade

Cousin fun time


Dad and Jarom wanted to get cool for a little bit


The three amigos

Uncle Matt was the last to join in on the fun


Draek and Isaac

Koki always finds a way to get in the shade

I learned that I am not a big fan of roller coaster anymore. We chilled
on the sky scraper thingy


Tor hurt her leg and so she was in a wheel chair. It was awesome
because she got everyone at the front of the line and you were able to 
ride the ride twice. 

We had a blast and think this will be a yearly tradition
