Brody and Brenna's Blog : July 2012

Goodbye Minivan!

I decided to say goodbye to our minivan. The salesperson couldn't believe we actually traded the van in and bought a car. He thought we had too much stuff in our van to be serious about trading it in that day.:)

Goodbye minivan!

Hello Nissan Rogue!

The new ride is Brenna and Brody approved. The gas mileage is much better than the van too! It holds two less people so I am hoping I don't miss the extra space too much.

Charity Classic Run

The kids and I ran the RCU Charity classic at the end of June. I ran the 10K race and the kids ran the 1/2 mile race. Abbi ran the 2 mile race.

After the run!

Waiting for the race to start getting warmer by the minute.

Great job Brenna and Brody!

Brody was feeling overheated so we went down by the river to cool off.

Brenna was content collecting rocks. She is not a huge fan of lake water.

Brody ended up getting in the water and he did not want to get out!
Our 7-year old is looking way too grown up at times.

"Just what I needed!"

Music in the Park

Brenna had been wanting to go to music in the park since the beginning of summer and we finally made it. It was a fun way to spend a warm summer evening.

Brody enjoying ice cream, which seems to be a daily occurrence this summer!

The kids played in the bubbles

Cousin Abbi joined us..I wonder what she is thinking.

Sarah and her mom, Colleen

Avery didn't have any problems relaxing.

Sprinkler Fun!

These pictures were taken way back in May when we got the sprinkler out for the first time. The field in the background of the picture is now full of corn that is taller than me!

Love watching my kiddos having fun!

Auntie Sheri and Steve's Wedding

Brenna and Brody were asked to be a part of a wedding. Steve's sister, Aunt Sheri, got married to Steve. They both had crushes on each other in elementary school and many years later reconnected via facebook. Brenna and Brody were so excited to be a part of a wedding. It was a small wedding with just close family.
