We packed in a lot during our week in Utah. We spent time with family and friends on the lake, we went on hikes and walks, we enjoyed an outdoor concert, and we soaked up down time around the cabin. I have just a few more things captured by my…
We kicked off July by getting serious about swim lessons. I enrolled all the boys in lessons at the same time, but since Blake was already practicing with the swim team and didn’t need lessons, he took a diving course so he would have something to do too. He absolutely…
