On Friday we went to an LFM closing BBQ. It was really great, and fun to see everyone that Todd has been going to class with for the last few months. It is nice to have a small break with Todd, and have him relatively stress free. We are really proud of him for all the hard work and the good job he has done this last semester. I have always admired Todd for his diligence and dedication, and the way he sets his mind to accomplish even the hardest of tasks. Only Todd can make going to MIT seem like a piece of cake.
On Saturday morning some good friends of ours woke us up and told us that some Pirates had invaded our playground the night before and buried treasure! The boys were really excited, and they loved digging for their "coins" and "jewels". We are so grateful that we live in the community that we live in here, and have already made some friendships that we know will last a lifetime.
We are on to the Wedding Extravaganza (as I have entitled it) this week in Utah and there will sure to be a large post coming of our exciting Utah trip. Good luck to Jon who is in the last week of Bachelorhood!
This is the SO (significant other) group of the LFM's 10's. They are a great group of ladies.

Todd teaching Thatcher how to play football. He is hoping to cash in on Thatcher's size...
Thatcher and some of his friends running around silly.
Digging for treasure.
A REAL coin!
The sandbox all dug up!
He was very dedicated to his pirate cause...
The cutest little pirates I have ever seen. 
When Taggy sees Piratehats he says, "ARRRR" in his most ferocious voice. I was trying to teach Thatcher how to say,
"drink up me hearties yo ho!" but it didn't go over too well. I guess we will leave that one to Capn' Jack for now.

Rachael, you seem to be having so much fun with your group. I'm glad you have found such great friends. Your boys are darling. I was looking into the "dream dinners" website because I had never heard ot that. Very cool. Wish I had one closer - it's an hour away. Please say hello to your mom and dad for me!!! Love, Becky

How cool is that pirate idea!!! I will have to try that with the kiddos!
Corynn would have loved the pirate theme, she digs everything pirate. Looks like guys are enjoying your summer.
How fun! I thought the las vegas summer was going to kill me, but we have had a blast! A lot of swimming like I'm sure you did in AZ. I cry watching the olympics too! I think I feel so amazed and blessed that our bodies can do so much and I look at the world a little differently, like we really are all children of God with so much potential. CHEESY I KNOW!
I'm lovin your hair. You are one HOT momma!!! Ow ow ow!!!

My comment was so good I thought I'd post it twice.
I have to tell you how jealous I am of all the things you guys do together! You have inspired me to be involved in things. Thanks!
