Canyon Lake

We went with our friends, Bill and Barb, to Canyon Lake. We had a blast. We all went tubing, ate lunch, got a tan, and relaxed alot. I was very surprised that my kids attempted to tube. They got right on. At one point, LJ wiped out and got a nice "rope burn" on his forehead. He thought that his "wipeout" was cool. I almost had a heart attack! After a while on the water, we found a cove and let the kids jump in and swim. We were on the lake the entire day. Good thing that it didn't take us along time to get home...we were tired!

MDA Summer Camp VIP Day in Heber, Arizona

Since we were invited to attend the VIP summer camp for MDA, we decided to take a day trip to Heber, Arizona. It was a beautiful drive. We had never gone that far northeast. When we arrived, we watched some of the kids play soccer in the gym with a HUGE ball. It was great to see the smiles on their faces. Everyone was cheering them on. After the match, it was time for lunch. Because it was super windy, lunch was delayed due to the fact that they had to move all of the equipment and food indoors. At that point, our kids were starving and we decided to go to Subway. We then decided to drive on to Winslow, Arizona. Jack did a report on Winslow and kept begging us to take him there. It was quick, but we made it (more like a drive-by). All in all it was a fun day.
