We got a great deal on a new swing set for the backyard! The one that was left was old, wood and horrible. We got a cheap one in hopes that it will fall apart when the kids out grow it :) But they LOVE it! [Image]   Mara's hair was so LONG! [Image]   We met the Jazz Bear at a local event here in Spanish Fork!  [Image]    Summerfest weekend in Orem. It was really windy and cold, so we only stayed for the parade and rides. No fireworks.

[Image]   I have to catch these sweet moments as often as I can. Grandpa reading Jaina a book.  [Image]   Mara in her new swimsuit!!  [Image]  
[Image]   So excited to play outside in a swimsuit!  [Image]  
[Image]   Mara had been begging me for months saying that she wanted her hair cut. I think it was mainly because she HATES getting it brushed and done.  So finally I gave in!  [Image]   And had Stef come over to do the dirty work  [Image]   It was long enough that we were able to donate it to Locks-of-Love!! (10 inches) [Image]

[Image]   We went exploring, like we do in the summer, and went to North Park, but we forgot that there was a splash pad there. The kids didn't care that they didn't have their swimsuits. They jumped in anyway!  [Image]

[Image]   Mara had an accident on her bike and got scraped up pretty bad. She even got a fat lip too :(  [Image]   Jaina loves to wear anything she can put on her head.  [Image]   Dad had found a snake at work and decided to bring it home to show the kids.  It got out of the box during his drive home and got lost in his car.  After a lot of searching, it was found and the box was taped shut this time.  [Image]   We decided to take it up the canyon to let it go. So we went to Dripping Rock to do it. [Image]
