4th of July talent show AND BOYS NEED TO LEARN TO SHOOT











OK these pics are taking forever. Pics to come tomorrow.

We decided to do a talent show for the kids on the 4th. It was so much fun and the kids had a blast and did very well. Almost everyone participated. Then afterward we had a dance. I LOVE to dance. I was doing the polka with my brother and it was kind of ironic that my brother in law told me to be careful (I had sprained my ankle playing basketball) and I told him I would be fine. Seconds later I fell to the ground and sprained my other ankle so the rest of the night I had my ankle up in the air with ice on it. I was very bummed. I really wanted to dance more. OH well. What a great excuse to not have to exercise. :) It was HARD watching everyone play volleyball the next day. I can't stand to not play.

1. Caleb did rope twirling for his talent.
2. Zach jumped a bungee cord.
3. Rachel did her belly roll and her foot to her head.
4. Ethan sang Twinkle Twinkle Little star

Sara and Hailey sang Our Song by Taylor Swift.
Sami did some beat boxing.
Dylan played his electric guitar.
Josie did makeup on ROB (too funny).
Stormi walked on her hand half way across the basketball court (this girl is amazing at gymnastics).
Kebra and Leila did their homey dance to Soulja Boy.
Jenna did funny faces.
Jordan and Sami also did rope twirling along with Caleb.
My brother, Ron, was the MC (that guy makes any moment fun).



When the majority of my family went to hoopfest (the biggest 3 on 3 basketball tournament in the world) I stayed home with the kids and my dad. Dad took us fishing but we didn't catch a thing. Didn't take us long to get bored with it and besides it was already really hot and it was only 8 a.m.


And the greatest thing so far is shooting the 4-10 at the clay pigeons. I thought it was pretty cool that all the girls (4 of us) each hit a clay pigeon but the two guys MISSED. Poor guys. We won't talk about it.

We are still having a ton of fun. Ok so you all have to be honest here and tell me if you like my hair better curly or straight. My niece straightened it but I am pretty sure I won't be able to do it by myself.

Hope you are all having a fun summer.

Oh my gosh! The straight hair is super-cute! It's probably a lot of work though! I love your hair either way, you know us straight-haired people love the curly hair! And it looks like you guys are having a blast!

I have to agree I love you hair I had to look twice to make sure it was you. I am sorry to hear about the ankle we miss you. Let me know if you need anything.
