WE HAVE HAD A FUN MONTH WATCHING ALEX GRADUATE FROM MADISON HIGH SCHOOL. THE REAL FUN CAME THE DAY AFTER GRADUATION WHEN HE INFORMED STEPHEN THAT INSTEAD OF PACKING FOR THEIR CROSS COUNTRY TRIP TO FLORIDA FOR HIS SUMMER EMPLOYMENT, HE HAD DECIDED TO STAY HOME AND WORK ODD JOBS. WE WERE ALL GLAD HE WAS STAYING (INCLUDING STEPHEN), BUT STEPHEN DID THINK IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN A BETTER DECISION BEFORE HE BOUGHT HIS PLANE TICKET FOR THE RETURN TRIP. HIS LUCK AT GETTING JOBS HAS BEEN GOOD SO FAR, WITH MOUNTS, GRANDMA & GRANDPA Z. OFFERING ANYTIME EMPLOYMENT AND WHAT EVER POPS UP FILLING IN QUITE FREQUENTLY. HE IS GETTING ALL HIS PAPERS READY TO HAND IN FOR HIS MISSION. HE CAN SENT THEM IN JULY 1ST.
ADDISON HAS GONE UP TO ISLAND PARK FOR ANOTHER FUN FILLED SUMMER WITH GORDON Z.
THE GIRLS WILL STAY BUSY WORKING OUT AT THE GYM 11 HOURS A WEEK AND PIANO ONCE A WEEK. THEY ALSO HAVE A MOVIE PASS FOR ONE MOVIE A WEEK AT "THE REX CENTER" AND CAN BOWL EVERYDAY IF THEY WANT FOR $1.00. SO THEY HAVE PLENTY TO KEEP THEM BUSY IF OUR WEATHER STAYS SO WINDY AND COLD LIKE IT HAS BEEN SO FAR.
WE ARE SO EXCITED TO HAVE JAKE, MANDI AND KEMPTON BACK IN REXBURG FOR THE SUMMER. YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!! (BOARD GAMES FOR THE GIRLS -- GOLF FOR THE BOYS)
WE ARE GOING TO HILARY'S WEDDING THIS NEXT WEEK IN COLORADO. WE ARE ALL EXCITED FOR THE ROAD TRIP AND TO MEET JOHNNY AND HIS FAMILY CONGRATS HILLY, HOPE EVERYTHING IS GOING SMOOTHLY SO FAR. SEE YOU SOON!!!
I WILL GO TO GIRLS CAMP THE WEEK AFTER WE GET BACK. AND THEN STEPHEN AND I ARE GETTING READY FOR A FUN FILLED TRIP AS A MA & PA FOR THE MARTIN'S COVE TREK. WE ARE ALSO LOOKING FORWARD TO LIZ ZOLLINGER AND HER FINANCEE RYAN'S WEEK LATER THIS SUMMER.
EVERY YEAR WE START OUT THE SUMMER THINKING THAT WE ARE GOING TO PLAN BETTER FOR OUR ADVENTURES, AND EVERY SUMMER WE REALIZE THAT WE ARE GOING TO SPEND MOST OF THE SUMMER TRAVELING, DRIVING THE KIDS AROUND, OR TRYING TO CATCH UP FROM THE THINGS WE MISSED WHILE WE WERE GONE ON ONE OF OUR TRIPS.
