Summer fun

Busy, busy, busy!! Some of our latest summer adventures...

One of LaRee's favorite summer activities is swimming with her friend Trey a.k.a Fray and his two brothers Parker and Zander. She asks more times then not if we can go swimming with them and when she is tired of asking she just goes and gets her swimming suit.


If it were up to LaRee we would live in the backyard and just come inside to get food, drink and cool off and then back out we would go. Here are a few shots of her and her Grandpa Berg tending to the garden. Grandpa has to pay close attention so he does not get a shower!


Our 4th of July was pretty low key. Our ward (church congregation) had a breakfast and pool party at the local pool. Our scouts did a flag raising, the Makua's sang a few patriotic songs which I really liked. Music seems to really touch my heart. LaRee enjoyed swinging until we headed over to the pool. We didn't swim long because little misses was obsessed with getting up on the lifeguard chair and she could not understand why she was not allowed. We topped off our swim with a McDonald's cone and George Foreman burgers because it was way too hot to grill.



On the second of July we celebrated 4 years of marriage. It's fun to reminisce with Sione about all the happenings in these last four years. Our first date was in San Francisco. Sione took me out to dinner and then we decided to get together again for breakfast and both places were next to the airport which is soooo Sione, he knows what he knows and he sticks with that. This is a pictures from our first date - it soo makes me laugh.... oh young love :) After dinner I said that I wished I had a piece of dental floss and Sione said he had some in the glovebox and at the very moment I knew it was TRUE LOVE!!!

too funny about the dental floss. Boys don't get that the simple things get us every time.

It seems like you're staying busy. LaRee is getting so tall. Brooke is like her, she too wants to wear her swim suit everywhere. Yesterday we went to look at a house, and while we're in there she started to take off her dress and expose everyone to her swim suit. With no diaper there were cracks showing.

Oh, she is so grown up! I don't like that too much. :( But, of course, she loves the sunshine - she gets that from you! Happy Anniversary.
