Finishing the Bathroom

 After almost eight years of living in this house, Brice finally decided to finish the downstairs bathroom. I took pics of the mudding and taping.  He did an awesome job.  I will post pics of the after.  We only put in a toilet and sink.  The shower will have to wait because I refuse to put in tile.

Swimming Lessons

 From June 11th to June 22nd Tayson took swim lessons at the Roy Complex.  He loves swimming lessons!!  He gets so excited to go everyday.  He is my little fish.  He did pass level 2 and will get to move on to level 3 next summer.

In this picture he is doing his back float.  He does pretty good at them.  Way to go buddy!!

Tayson is 7!!

 I can't believe it, it can't be true, but it is... Tayson turned 7th on June 19th.  He waits 364 days for his birthday and he was up at 6:15 a.m. to start his day.  We went to the Roy Aquatic Center for his birthday that night.  We had pizza for dinner and he got a rainbow/spiderman cake.. Pic is below.

 He wanted a new bike for his birthday so that is what he got.  He has ridden it everyday since his birthday.

 Here is the Spiderman cake..  My sister in law who does awesome cakes was doing a wedding cake and I didn't want to ask her, so I made it myself.  Not really fancy, but it worked..

 The night before we celebrated with my family and he got his own bb gun from grandpa.  He got some dive toys, clothes, spiderman stuff, chapter books, some money and sunglasses.

This picture was supposed to be at the first, but oh well.  This is before he started opening his gifts.  I love my little brown eyed boy.  He is sometimes a challenge, but I wouldn't trade it for anything.  We love you buddy and hope you had a great birthday!!

Brice's B-day

This is it folks.  This is the only picture I took on Brice's birthday..  He turned 33 and he wanted a yellow cake with chocolate frosting.  We did go the Roy Aquatic Center that night and had pizza with family.. Love you honey, happy birthday!!

Last Game of the Season

 This was Tayson's last soccer game of the season.  He is the guy in the green shirt leaning forward.

 Tayson is the one trying to get the ball to bounce off of his chest.  He was getting much better by the time the season ended.

Tayson is the one running toward the ball in the green.  Not number 3, the other one.  He did have a great team and coach.  I signed him for the fall, so we get to see him in action again. 

What we do everyday..

 Everyday that is nice outside, we are out there.  Here is Ember riding her "bike".  And no that is not our car!!

 Tayson finally got the hang of riding without training wheels.  He loves to ride his bike everyday he can. 

 He is turning around in the neighbors driveway.  At any given time we can have at least ten kids out playing with us.  We love our street and neighborhood!!

 Don't look at the garden area behind you, it is now all tilled up and looking better.  Here are my two monkeys jumping on the tramp.  Brice got a new camera and got some great pics.

 Ninja Tayson...

 Surfer Ember...

 Flying high...

Just chillin'  We do look forward to some great summer fun....

Soccer

Tayson loves soccer!!  He is getting better and I am so proud of him for trying.  His team was undefeated, but they have lost three games and so it has been hard for him.  But we keep telling him its okay as long as he keeps trying.  The first pic is of him being goalie, the next picture is of him kicking the ball.  He was playing defense, that's his favorite position.
