Last night we had a "9th of July" party at the Jones house. Ammon got to play with sparklers for the first time! Mickey Jones bought a bunch of illegal fireworks on his way home from riding fourwheelers in Utah. We were all at Trinity lake on the fourth so we let them off last night. They had some great fireworks and had a lot to go but a policeman came halfway through and made us stop. He was suprisingly nice and said he would have looked passed it on the 4th but had gotten 9 complaints on his way over. Do people seriously have nothing better to do with their time? It was fun while it lasted.
We were at the lake on the fourth and had a great time. We laid out in the sun, skied, wakeboarded and ate lots of food. Our friends camp right next to us and Ammon was always over with them sitting around their camp fire. We would get off the lake and he would head right over to the McCartney's, sit down on a chair and not say a word. It was hilarious. He also learned to swim (with life jacket on) alone on this trip. Before he would get really nervous in the water even if we were holding him. Now he loves to swim and is always saying, "I'm a big boy now, I swim by myself!" He loved going on the tube with me but didn't like it when we went over the wake and water splashed him in the face. One of the many good things about having boys is that they can pee anywhere. When we drive to the lake we usually have to stop a couple of times for Ammon to pee. It's not a big deal because he can pull down his pants and just pee on the side of the road. Unfortunately he has decided to do this in camp also. It's convenient for me but not too pleasant for other campers who may happen to be on a leisurely stroll, walk pass our campsite and see a three year old peeing naked.
This week Ammon will have his first dentist appointment, we will be moving my parents out of their house, go to the Medford Temple, and I hope to squeeze in a girls night out! I bought a Nintendo on Ebay and it should be here any day!

Fun times at the lake. Hilarious about Ammon (peeing and the McCartney's campsite). How much was the nintendo?
Only $30 and it comes with 6 games. Should be here any day now.
I am anxiously awaiting it!
So your parents are moving? Crazy. It's always weird when parents move out of the house you grew up in. Where are they moving to? I love being at the lake. I went to Trinity lake with Celeste, Alicia Bingham, and her 50 million cousins. It was so fun and warm. My visit home reminded me of how cold Humboldt is! I was freezing!
how funny, we just got back from a lake trip where Brooklyn learned to swim in a floatie alone. She was just like ammon, totally freaked out and would cling to me even if she was wearing the ring!
