And Pheonix got a beautiful Pink butterfly. What more could the girls ask for!
On Saturday the Fossil Fest parade took place. The LDS wards got together a made a float, well actually about 6 people from my ward, including me made the float. And then primary age kids got to ride it. The theme of the parade was welcome to the jungle. So on our float it said when things get wild, cling to home.
I don't know how wild it is but Mica wanted the pink mask and it was a pig. So Mica was my wild pig!
Pheonix was a pretty cow. Again not sure how wild the cow is.
Carson didn't want to be in the parade but changed his mind at the last minute, but he still wouldn't put a mask on! He looks pretty wild, even without a mask.
Nick wouldn't wear a mask either. But he did have fun. I walked the parade path for a little while, then I took a short cut to the triangle in town so I could watch them go by. He kept saying things like "Go get your doughnuts at Maverick" and "Parents for Sale" as he went by a group of people.
Ted had his 10 year class reunion the same weekend. I took my camera, but I didn't take a single picture. Horrible I know. Ted's brother Robert graduated the same year as Ted so he and his wife Camilla were there. I will have to see if I can get pictures from them.
While Ted had most of his family here, we were missing Kacey's husband Mike and Ted's brother Earl. We had a Family Reunion at Bear Lake.
This was the first time we had taken our new boat to Bear Lake. It fits more people, rides smoother in the water so you don't get beat up when you go for a ride and is thankfully slower then the boat Ted's Dad built. Carson had gotten a sunburn the day before while he was on the parade float. I sprayed sunscreen on the kids about 6 times while we were at the lake. Micalyn and Nick were fine. But Carson who already had a light sunburn blistered on one shoulder. I had sunscreen on my back, then I did my arms and chest (a little later) but I never did put sunscreen on my legs. Big mistake.
This is Carson's shoulder 2 days after Bear Lake.
These are my shapely Thighs the night we got home from Bear Lake.
And here is the rest of me the same day. One of these years I will learn my lesson. I am thinking it will be this year. This is the worst sunburn (as far as my thighs go) I have ever had. They turned purple. I have been walking with a limp this whole week. It hurts to have anything touch it. Today is the first day that I can walk normally. Thank Heaven! We started swimming lessons on July 7th. The boys are in level one together and Micalyn isn't old enough for the toddler class yet so I am in the Mom and Tot class with her. Boy am I excited about that. Because of my sunburn I hurt to bad to walk and Carson was also quite sore so Kacey took Nick to swimming lessons on Monday. On Tuesday I had a chance to take pictures of Nick in the water. I am usually in the water at the same time so I don't get to watch them swim. Carson and I were not feeling up to swimming, because of our sunburns, so we watched Nick swim.
On the edge waiting to jump....
Horrible picture, I know, but he Jumped!!!

Carolyn, I'm soo sorry to hear about your sunburn. I've been there so many times and I can honestly say I feel you pain! Take ice baths and try not to wear any clothes. :-)
So you said you were burned, I didn't realize you were FRIED! Yikes, I hope by now it has peeled off and you are a bit more comfortable.
