It has been crazy busy lately! It sure dosen't help being sick. Everything seems to slow down. It has been a week that myself, Valerie, and Mikayla have been battling sore throats. We think we are better and then bam - it comes back! We did get to enjoy the 4th of July parade and fireworks at the river. Cade was excited to be in the parade passing out stuff and we were excited that the weather was not blistering hot!
This was at our ward campout. Yes, we have a ward campout which was actually a lot of fun probably because we didn't stay the night. The kids had a blast on this huge waterslide. We enjoyed food, the zip line, and of course the candy canon. I must admit I had to hold myself back when all the kids started scavenging on the ground once the candy was shot up.
We were so excited when Cameron and Erin and family stopped by to see us. Rock band was a hit even for Gavin. He wanted those drumsticks so bad so he could stand in front of us and lead the music.
Ahhh! This was our home enrichment mother daughter activity that I was in charge of. It turned out great and I must say I was glad when it was over. Our theme was "An Enchanted Evening for Daughters of a King." We blew bubbles, had a dress up relay, had story time, made crowns, painted nails, made princess fairies, had pony carriage rides, and made the cutest magnet boards with vinyl. To top it off we had a chocolate fountain with goodies. Any guesses on what Hailey's favorite activity was?!
We can't forget Ashley and Mikayla's Camp Rock party. Camp rock is a show (sort of like High School Musical?) They made posters and treats and hung up balloons. When their friends came over they didn't even watch it - they were having too much fun outside! By the way, I am loving the weather - 80's and cooling off at night.

Why are all of our girls leaning back? What a bunch of beauties!!:)
It's about time you posted! I've been checking everyday for some new news from the Shirley front. I'm sorry to hear you have all been sick, hopefully you had your fill for the summer and you'll stay well now. It looks like the enrichment activity was a hit. Congrats on pulling it all together.
