cried a little I was so proud of him. He won a $20 gift certificate to Cold Mountain Creek restaurant one of our favs here in town which he took us to the next morning. The kids also rode rides that day and had a blast. Pete and Betty came out and had dinner with us there. Stevan didn't make this year due to work. It was so weird to not have him there. Here are some pics.
Wesstin thoroughly enjoying his first carmel apple. And yes I was covered in it he was covered in it and I had my pic taken for the paper covered in Carmel. I know really nice. From the pic it looks like I enjoyed that Carmel apple as well LOL

Onto the next adventure my dad and uncles visit. We had so much fun!! We spent the majority of our time exploring the mountains it was so great! The first place we looked for was Pearl which is an old Ghost town or at least used to be we sadly found out it was burnt down because of teenagers partying up there. We drove around back by the butte behind our house, We went to Silver City which is a Ghost town, we also went to haggerman and sat in the hot springs which was my favorite place. Besides the fact of me getting us lost and driving the wrong way for 20 minutes oops and Wesstin screaming in the car they were great adventures. Stevan was able to get the day off to bring us to Silver City we hiked around and it was beautiful. They also got to be here for Brendon's 5th Birthday which was Pirate themed. My neighbors threw a bbq for him we had a pirate ship pinata to go with a pirate ship cake. Afterwards my dad and Uncle Brian bbq'd a tenderloin wrapped in a pork loin wrapped in bacon stuffed with peppers mushrooms, and onions CAN YOU SAY YUMMY!! Sara and Rob came over and played some games. It was a grand day. As always visits go by so fast I can't believe its already come and gone. My dad put the tire swing back up and we tried with all our might to get Wess to walk but he was having non of it. Little Stinker.

The Haggerman hot springs. With tall the rain the river washed into the hot springs but man was it beautiful definitely want to go here again. When they say Hot they mean HOT! as my dad and I found out after scorching our feet walking across.
Wesstin had breakfast with Grandpa every morning. This morning was special because he made Green eggs and Ham which he and Brendon had been talking about for about a year now.
Up at Black Canyon Dam. the water was just ripping thorough.

So as I said June was a a very full very fun month now we'll see what July holds. We start swimming lessons Monday, my mom is thinking of coming out the end of July we have birthdays and anniversary's coming up and school starts August 17th already I think I better slow down and enjoy each day cause they go by far to fast.
