We had a great 4th of July. Our friends invited us over for food & fireworks. They are CRAZY!! Had so many fireworks that it was a blast watching them all. Yvette, tell Dylan - thanks for throwing those fireworks in the firepit & scaring the poop out of all of us!!! On the 5th we set off our fireworks & Tina - the dog - was chasing every firework around the whole yard. We had a really fun time!
Whew! Got back from girls camp & we are all exhausted! Girls camp was a new experience up here in the St. of Washington.
Here are some pictures of camp. Kelcey, Jacy & I bonded at camp and we all had a wonderful time - not counting the six hour bus drive for the girls, the scary first day in the river, cleaning bathrooms at midnight, hiking straight up the mtn. on the most beautiful, lush, gorgeous, snowy trail & arriving at a lake that took your breath away!
Painting fences, cooking, cleaning, smores, crafts, the zip line, skits, cooking, & cleaning (again), throwing away the Michie's life jackets :(! Trying to sleep with loud, pranking girls, etc. etc. etc.! Bonding & laughing with the ladies in my ward - spilling the spaghetti in the dirt, watching our cute munchkins converse, testimonies, Kelcey's talk that made us all cry. Laughing & loving my leaders Yvette, Becky & Denice & the wonderful group of girls in our unit! Loved the food - thanks Sis. Baker & Sis. Earl for the delicious easy-to-cook food!
Thanks for all the special memories! I know I will never forget the French Fencer's!
Sis. Earl who does NOT have a temper!
Sis. Signorelli who was my sounding board!
sis. Campbell who kept us all laughing & smiling all week!Love YOU guys & thanks for all the help keeping me sane!
Ended the crazy week over in Pullman, WA at a soccer tournament! Stayed in a hotel - swam & relaxed watching the girls play in the heat.
Trent & Trevor hanging out in the pool - Jacy had crashed in bed, she got sick mid week at camp & was exhausted from camp & soccer. Kelcey was also sick & stayed home during the soccer tournament & slept - she also had to work! Poor girls - they played so hard :(!
Watch out!
Pullman, WA is the home of the Washington St. Univ. Cougs. - it was fun driving around Moscow, ID & Pullman where the Wash. St. & Universiy of Idaho students reside. 
This is the HS team without a lot of girls there - most are on summer vacations, etc. 
Well, what a crazy couple of weeks. We are off to Richland for another motorcycle race this weekend. Going to Portland next weekend & then flying down to UT for a fun filled week with family & friends! The summer is cruising by at warp speed! Hope Angie has a wonderful birthday - Happy Birthday! And have a super, fun, hot time at Lake Powell! We spent the day going to the gym, doing laundry & the rest of the day at the pool! Gotta love it! The Jones Family

Hope you had a safe trip home. I know you are off to watch Angie's kids now, please drive safe! We are looking forward to lunch & the boys are so excited for school shopping with Grandma - they cannot stand it! Anyway, have a great week in SLC & thanks - one more time for taking time out of your lives, driving up here, & taking such good care of the boys. They LOVED it! Love Lisa

Sounds like you had a great time at camp. Don't worry, I kept everything running here in the Moe Hole. We're headed to Spokane next week, and then onto Seaside-yeah. Landon's in AZ moving the rest of our stuff up here. Did you do the pool today?? We went to Wen. had to make a run to Costco. Still no phone, use my 3555 number. Talk to you soon
Oh I love your posts Lisa. I've just spent the last hour reading on, ha ha! I love Denice, Yvette and Becky too. Great, great women. Funny too! I'm glad you had a good time, I'm not a camper but somehow girl's camp usually turns out ok. Looks like lots of fun stuff coming up. I love getting out of town! One day I'm going to take you up on the tutorial of digital scrapping. How about when the school district starts taking care of my kids most days? :)
