Just a few things

So there's been quite a few things I haven't posted pretty much all summer and maybe some.. So this might be a little long for ya! Rhett graduated preschool in July he gets to hit up kindergarten in August. Woot! Woot! Gage and Rhett both had swim lessons this summer which i was a bad mommy and didn't take them to every class!But they had a good time while it lasted! Gage didn't really want to do any of lessons but eventually would listen while the class was almost to an end for the day. Rhett on the other hand his mind was somewhere else but he still did a good job! He actually taught himself to swim before lessons started. I kind of waisted 25 bucks but who cares he knows how to swim!! Fourth of July was at my dad's house we had delicious food, fireworks that were a little on the week side but the kids enjoyed them! Gage got burned by a sparkler and we had delicious dessert! The whole family was there and it was pretty nice.. Just bare with me with the pics though there kind of random so it's a guessing game but I'm sure it's not too hard! Rhett had a little out patient surgery done. I'm not in the place to say what kind of surgery but he is all better now! He was actually excited to wear the cool space snowboarding pj's they gave him and he was just talking away with the nurse asking a million questions with no worries. The nurse let him pick a flavor for his sleep mask. Then he just walked off with the nurse to surgery holding her hand not even looking back! In the recovery room he was having a hard time waking up. He had to eat a popsicle before he left which the first bite ended in vomit! Eventually we got to leave and the first thing he asked for was a freezy freeze which is another way of saying slurpee. He recovered well it was a long first couple weeks of pain for him but he made it through. What a trooper!! Before this visit to get surgery we took him to the Lieds children's museum omg it was crazy!!! Too many kids! We didn't stay there too long because there was so many people. But it was a little treat before Rhett had to stay inside for the next couple weeks! This summer we also went to the springs preserve. I love it when there's barely anyone because it's so relaxing and the kids get to have fun also. We were there a few hours just chillin and everyone was happy!! Rhett's cousins just recently came from Florida to visit Brooklyn and little baby Lexi and of course Aunt Tiff. It's been a while since we got to see them cause they live so flippin far! We're happy we got a little time with them though. While they were here the boy's cousin zach had a little Birthday cake and we got a few pics with the cousins. My sister-in-law and brother had a little one and had him blessed he's a little cutie pie! We've had my Grandma Nelson's or I should say Grandma Shirley as she would've preferred.Her funeral was sad to say a family reunion with all the Aunts, Uncle's ,cousins. But I got to see them and even though I was sad to see my Grandma go I'm sure she is happy to be reunited with my grandpa. I went to visit a cousin that lives in Salt Lake,she has a couple boys. So we went to the Kangaroo Zoo the boys loved it!! Let me tell you about Kangaroo Zoo it's inside and the kids jump and slide down a whole bunch of blown up stuff. If you wanna get your kids energy out it's spectacular even I had a blast!! Thanks Tatum and Jason! Oh yes I almost forgot about the pic with Gage eating an icecream in his lap. Mike and I had gotten these pretty large ice cream popsicles for the boys you know the mexican ones and Gave was dropping ice cream on his lap so I had a towel in the car. The towel ended up turning into a bowl and I some how had an extra slurpee straw in the car so he just used it as a spoon. It's amazing what a mother has sitting around. Always prepared for the worst! Not always..So we've had an eventful summer! Well at least the last part of it! I'm sure I've missed a few stories so they'll probably be a few more things to post but for now this I'm sure is enough for one person to handle! Adios!!!
