Summer is quickly coming to an end, but not before the boys got to go spend a week with their cousins in Idaho. It has been one party after another for these boys! They have had a blast spending so much time with cousins. This week was no different. It was full of street hockey, paintball wars, late nights, and blue darts. Yup...I guess that's what I get for being a "boymom". While I am trying to re-civilize my boys, I am glad that they were able to make so many fun memories. Family is the most important thing to us. I am grateful for the amazing family I have and the wonderful family I married into.

Life back at home was much less exciting. Jeff had several emergency jobs to take care of all week so Jonas and I had to entertain each other. Jonas did discover the excitement that a simple hose with water can have. We played outside a lot and would take Jeff lunch on most days (that was about the only time we got to see him).

Friday (8/5) the boys came home. Jonas was super excited to see his brothers! He laughed and squealed all the way home. Once I got them home, I was able to attend my niece's, Kaia, showcase performance. She made the show choir at her school (ALA). I'm super proud of her! She did a great job. I can't wait to go to more performances.

That evening was the Olympics opening ceremonies. I put up a few decorations and prepared various international food items (at least the ones I knew my kids would eat) and we enjoyed the evening together as a family. I can't believe in two weeks the boys will be back at school. This summer has flown by, mostly because it was so fun and family filled. Thanks to everyone who made it such a great summer!
