(pardon the panties)It's so classic that Kennedy is on top of Whitley. She is the worst to sleep with. She is constantly kicking you and rolling on top of you!
We got up early this morning and went to the farmer's market. We have been waiting for this to open since we moved here. We love to wander through the market at look at all of the crazy, fun stuff that people are selling. 
Everyone had told us about the "salsa guy" and we weren't disappointed. We sampled all of his yummy salsa, and loved it! We got some Rainer cherries, and the most delicious breads you ever had!!
We are already planning our trip back next Saturday for more bread. The kids ended up with some marshmallow shooters, and we've regretted ever since. I've been hit twice in the face, and man do those marshmallows hurt when they're moving that fast.
For dinner tonight we had the missionaries come. We grilled some shish-kabobs, corn on the cob, homemade rolls (Rhodes rolls are as homemade as I get) salad and some great potatoes that I got from the pioneer woman's blog. We had eclair cake for dessert. All in all is was a great meal. Elder Keddington is from Centerville, UT and was so friendly. He's only been on his mission for 3 months! Elder Frost is from Gilbert, AZ!! Can you believe it. He is awesome. He goes home in November and can't wait. They taught the kids a little lesson on the Plan of Salvation. It was really cool to have them in our home. They were both such neat guys, and I can't wait to have them come over again.
I took the kids to see Kung Fu Panda today. Yes, there is actually a movie theater here in the Moe Hole! Anyway, we loved it. Pretty funny and very entertaining.
How do I love Kennedy, let me count the ways! Kennedy was in her prime today! She loves to play hair dresser, and do Landon's' hair. She gets all of the combs and water and gel and goes to work. Today, she decided that he needed a haircut, and that she was just the girl to do it for him. Needless to say, Landon said NO. So, she snuck into our bedroom, locked the door, and gave herself a little trim. Luckily it was just a little bit off the bottom, and you can't even tell! This is not the first time that she has done this, but after the chewing out she got, it might just be her last! 
Now then, my girls are not allowed to wear make-up until they're 12. Not even just playing around. (Kennedy has Whitley to thank for this rule) Anyway, this is no secret. This is not something that Kennedy doesn't know-in fact she has been in trouble before for sneaking in my bathroom and slapping on some make-up. Tonight when the home teachers came over, she thought it would be a great idea to slip into my bathroom and try on a little mascara! She came waltzing out like nothing had happened with mascara not only on her eyes, but on her cheeks and nose as well. (As a side note, she has the most amazingly long eye lashes and when she can wear make-up, she's going to be gorgeous) After our home teachers left, I questioned her about the make-up and she completely denied it-DUH! After much thought, her punishment was no dessert of any kind for 3 days. This doesn't sound like too much, but this is my child who asked for ice cream every single night.
I don't know about you, but my kids love to see their names anywhere! They think they're famous. Colton and Kennedy seem to have a much better chance of seeing or hearing their names than poor Whitley does. If you know Whit, this does not sit well with her. We were driving the other day, and came upon this fuel tanker. Very cool. The only other time Whitley has seen her name is at California Adventure there's a building called the Whitley Building.
Meanwhile, I took the kids swimming and out to dinner trying to pass the time. We took Landon to Outback for Father's Day, and then went back to the hotel for another night. Landon was in bed and out cold by 6pm. 
(this is the only picture I have of Landon on this computer-still can't get into mine)
I took the kids swimming today at the water park! They had a blast. They ran into some kids that they knew from school, and they were gone. The weather was definitely better today. The girls got a little cold after a while, but Colton never did slow down. 
We packed a big lunch, with lots of snacks, and stayed for most of the day. There's nothing I'd rather do in the summertime than take my kids to the pool. I grew up swimming, and my kids love it just as much as I do. The best part, is when we get home they're wiped out. They jump in the shower, get into their jammies, and settle down for dinner. When Landon's in town, the day is literally done. Yeah yeah yeah for summer swimming!
OH YEAH-IT'S DEFINITELY SUMMER. LET THE FORT BUILDING BEGIN...IT SEEMS LIKE THE SECOND MY KIDS ARE OUT OF SCHOOL, THEY GO RIGHT FOR THE FORT! THEY LOVE TO MAKE THESE AND THEN SLEEP IN THEM. I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW MANY DINNERS WE'VE EATEN STANDING UP BECAUSE THE CHAIRS ARE HOLDING UP THE FORT! THE GIRLS ARE PLAYING WITH FRIENDS RIGHT NOW, AND COLTON IS THE ONLY ONE HERE. HE'S MAKING THIS ONE FOR A SURPRISE FOR THE GIRLS. 
Today was the last day of school! The kids got out at 11:30am, and then we went for lunch. We ordered an Ice Cream cake for Lanny for Father's Day, and took Colton to his friends house for a swim party. There's always mixed emotions on the last day of school. The kids are always excited about a break, but will miss seeing their friends. I always look forward to the summertime. We are always so busy during the school year, that we pretty much take the summer off! We swim alot, and I love just playing with my kids. Hopefully it gets warm enough to swim up here. It's cloudy and rainy and only about 75 degrees. Everyone keeps telling me it's going to get warm and sunny. It's getting harder and harder to believe!
