Busy Summer

Sorry about the long post but I have been a little behind on my blogging. This summer has been crazy busy. There has only been one weekend that we didn't have something planned and that was yesterday, although the day was filled up by putting a new water heater in the house. So here it is our busy summer.

In the first part of June Corbin's oldest niece was baptized. We forgot our camera so I don't have any pictures but it was a beautiful day and we are so grateful she made that decision. Way to go Alyssa!

My sister-in-law Jeni is the program director at Krupp (Cub Scout Camp). This year is her last semester of college and she had to take classes on Tues and Thurs. So I have been filling in for her on those days. It's been a lot fun but makes for a busy day.

Second weekend in June I got to go with Corbin to the 11 year old camp out. I didn't stay the night but I went up for the day as a second leader. His scouts are so much fun. Although, I don't think Corbin and I are good leaders. I think we act more like the scouts. All I know is we had good laughs and made it fun.

Third week of June was my birthday. Corbin let me go on a shopping spree and get my hair cut. It was a wonderful birthday.

Fourth week of June we went to Sun Valley for Corbin Edward Jones work meeting. It was a blast! Sun Valley is so pretty. We went swimming and played games. Maxten played with his skateboards and loved just being outside all the time. Again I forgot to take pictures but it was fun to get to know other FA's in the area.

First week in July Maxten started swimming lessons. He did not like it at first. The water was so cold. I had a hard time going sometimes too. But we stuck it out and he got to where he was getting more and more confident in the water. The doctor told us that we should not put his head under water without ear plugs. So on the last day we put them in and he went under. He did not like that very much, that was the last thing we did so hopefully he will want to go swimming again. He did do good and we are proud of him. He went from me holding him the whole time to jumping off the diving board. Just look at Maxten and not my fat body.







Grandpa Bybee has wanted to take Maxten fishing for a long time and Lone Pine had a free kids fishing day. So while I was doing a garage sale Corbin took Maxten fishing. They caught zero fish and Corbin was reminded of how much he dislikes fishing.


Fourth of July Parade 




Yes we live in Rexburg, only in Rexburg you would be wearing a sweatshirt on the fourth.
He was excited to get the candy.


That evening we went to my parents house and watched a movie in the backyard. Then when it was dark we lit fireworks. Maxten really liked them.


On Monday the 5th we went on a little hike in the Tetons to go rock climbing. Maxten was so excited to hike up the trail by himself. We saw a snake and Maxten kept saying Mommy snake scary. It was cute! (Maxten not the snake).




Then this weekend we have they Bybee Reunion and the week after that is the Snedaker reunion. I will try to remember to take pictures. I hope all of you are having a wonderful summer as well.





Wow I haven't posted for a while, this one is a long one!
