In May we took a trip down to Arkansas to visit Hot Springs National Monument.
We were pretty excited about the possibility of seeing an alligator, but unfortunately we only heard them.
At Hot Springs in the old men's bathhouse.
Junior Ranger Badges.
We had planned to do a great deal of hiking in the Ozarks, but it just kept raining, and I got really sick. We never got to hike down to a waterfall, but we did see this double rainbow.
In June we went to a bi-plane show in Junction City.
Camilla was miserable, but Hyrum was in heaven.
In June we also had our annual fondue night. Camilla now wants fondue instead of a birthday cake.
In June Jacob was able to participate as an uncle in the stake youth trek in Oklahoma.In June we also bought me a new bike, a recumbent. I no longer am in almost constant pain while I ride, and now I have to watch to make sure I don't leave the rest of the family in the dust! With me getting my picture taken, though, everyone else felt they needed equal recognition.
Hyrum in his fourth of July shorts I made for him.
I love, love, love, love, love, love, love, my bike!!!!!!
Mary Emma's fourth of July skirt I made.
Camilla's fourth of July skirt I made.
Notice Mary's finger.
July 1st Jacob was promoted to Captain, and on the 5th of July we had the ceremony.
The Cake
A better view of the skirts I made.
Look at the railroad tracks (captain bars) on Jacob's chest. Isn't he hadsome!

I LOVE Mary's finger. I had to enlarge the picture to see what she was doing, and it gave me a great laugh. Congrats on your bike; Mom has been telling us all about it. And congratulations to the Captain! I miss you guys! I'm glad you're still getting out and doing so much as a family. Have I mentioned lately that I have teenagers? It's a different life we're living now.
