Pants!!

We bought her pants!! Courtney lives in leggings and it drives me nuts. But she agreed that I could dress her once or twice per week so I had her try on pants when we went school shopping. And doesn't she look gorgeous!?!? She actually liked them too. 

Dinner

Ethan made steak kabobs for dinner and it was yummy!

Painting

Courtney finally picked a color for her bedroom so she and Bryan (mostly Bryan) painted it on the 24th. It turned out cute!

Catching up

Some people at church told Bryan that they thought Ethan had him beat in height. So after church we had to check and, nope, Bryan is still taller...for now.

Fire Lake Park

Last week the kids and I went to Fire Lake Park (Ivins Reservoir) to swim. It was super hot outside and we thought it would be fun to cool off. There weren't very many people there, which was nice. But we soon realized that the lake smelled like sewer. We didn't stay long because the water had algae in it, that's why it smelled. But we cooled off.

Peeling!!

We bought some stuff called "After Sun" to use for Courtney's sunburned face. It has aloe in it but also a bunch of other things. She said it didn't hurt like aloe so I was happy because she used it! I think it made a huge difference because she wasn't in pain from the burn.

Now her nose is really peeling and it's crazy. I think the after sun made it peel differently. 

Doesn't that just look like fun?!? She won't let me peel it off though. 

She's home!

Courtney got home Saturday mid-morning from camp. She had a great time but was sunburned and exhausted, so she was a bit grumpy. 😖

They went to Clear Creek Ranch by Zion and had so much fun. They slept in cabins and ate good food. There was a pond and they did paddle board and kayak races. They went into Zion for a hike to the Emerald Pools and then swam in the river. They made up skits and gave treats to their secret sisters. 

There was a rope swing from the tree next to the pond and Courtney wasn't afraid to use it. She was first and earned herself the award of "young, but mighty!"

I am so glad she had so much fun.
