Days 8 and 9

Saturday Justin, Nolan, Brock, and Granny went golfing in the morning, so Grandpa, Julia, me and the kids went swimming.  The kids had fun playing with Grandpa and Julia.




Leila was even braver at swimming on her own.


Flying Nixon!

Belly Flop!

When they were done golfing, they came swimming.  Brock and Justin were having too much fun throwing the kids back and forth, and into the water.  The kids didn't mind at all!

And Justin throwing him back


Whoa!  That's high!  Flying Jace!


 

We thought it would be fun to throw both boys at the same time


Justin asked Nixon if he could do a back flip, and Nixon said no.  Next thing you know...  When he came out of the water he was pretty mad, but didn't say anything for a while.  Then he was over it and laughing about it.

When Justin asked Jace to if he wanted to do a flip too, Jace said Yes!

Now daddy made Nixon do a back flip

Then Julia wanted in on the fun!

 That afternoon some of us went shopping, and the rest stayed back and watched the Olympics, and babysat the kids.  We met up at Olive Garden for dinner, and said our goodbyes to Nolan, Treo, Jaylee, and Kash.  I wish they lived closer so we could see them more often!  We had such a fun week with them, and were so lucky that Nolan and Treo both had work and school off for the week.
Sunday we woke up, and Justin and Brock played Tennis.  The rest of us slept in, and then ate breakfast.  We got all packed up, and then Justin and Julia headed home.  Brock, the kids, and I went to the pool one last time, and then left around noon.  Granny and Grandpa left about then too, but they went to visit Great Granny's grave, and see some other things in Veyo.  We grabbed lunch on the way out of St George, and were on the road by about 10 after 1:00.  We made it home by 5:10, and went straight to Grandma and Grandpa K's for dinner.  Then on to Grandma B's for dessert, and to watch some Olympics.  We had such a fun trip, and are so sad that it's over.  This is Jace's last week before school starts, so we're going to try to pack it full of fun things too!  I am so sad that summer is almost over!

Jace got this cool tongue tattoo and finally used it!  He said it even tasted good!

Here he is at the pool.  He liked to fill his goggles with water and dump it on people.  They're full of water in this picture

That was almost (but not quite) as fun as Hawaii! So glad you and the kids could spend the whole week.

Love, Dad
