Yes, I know it's been a while since I've written. Life has just been extremely busy, and I honestly am excited for it to slow down soon! And to make matters worse, when I sat down to start this post yesterday, my tendonitis came back with a vengeance for reasons unknown to me (I haven't had problems with it in years)! Because of that, I am planning on keeping my writing to a minimum for this post since this typing is a bit painful. Anyway, here's a glimpse of what we did this past weekend. We had a blast and I totally wish I could just do it all over again this weekend! :)
On Friday afternoon, my mom picked up Gavin for a sleep-over at "Nana and Poppy's". Gavin's cousins were there too and from what I hear, they had a great time! My parents took the three boys to "Kung Fu Panda" and McDonald's of course, then let them sleep over (which went amazingly well, I hear - just take a look at that picture!). The next day, my mom and Linz took the boys to the Orem Summerfest carnival and they had a great time! (More pics below)
Greg and I went down to Orem on Saturday morning, and that afternoon, I met up with my old high school and college friends for another girls' day! And we had such a blast! We met at Guru's in Provo and just hung out for a couple hours eating and talking. The whole thing just solidified to me what an awesome group of friends I have. So thanks Lara for planning everything. I can't wait for next time!
That night, we all headed out to one of my favorite Summer pastimes ever - the Orem Summerfest parade. Once again, we had such a great time! The little boys loved everything about it. I have seriously never seen Ty so intrigued before. He sat still for almost the entire thing! Afterwards, we staked out a good spot at Cascade Park to watch the fireworks and once again, the boys were enthralled.
On Sunday, we celebrated Father's Day and Kristin's 21st birthday with a yummy dinner, and cake and ice cream. Overall, it was such a fun weekend! I have so much more I could write about it, but out of fear that my wrist will start hurting worse, I better stop! :) So thanks Mom and Dad for having us (and Gavin overnight) - I couldn't ask for a better family! -Ash
The boys on the swings at the carnival.
I guess the boys got to go into a fire truck, and thought it was the coolest thing ever!
Dan and Greg sporting their free ties that employees from the Missionary Mall were throwing out! I have always made fun of that store, but now I kind of like them! Seriously, who doesn't like free ties?!
My gorgeous mom with two busy boys (who can't sit still for a camera worth anything!)
My Dad with his Father's Day gift from us - a Bill O'Reilly "Don't Be a Pinhead" t-shirt! :)

I miss the good old town parades. They don't have anything like that here.
Wow, I freaking look like a tub of lard in that picture! Good heavens! Diet is being implemented NOW.
That was soooooo fun! I wish we lived closer so we could hang out all the time.
