Outdoor Activities

It seems like it took summer forever to get here. We had snow in June can you believe that? i guess most people in Idaho were not surprised by it at all. But I just couldn't wait to finally go outside without a jacket. I always look forward to summer because i love doing summer activities, but for some reason we haven't done too much of it lately. Everyone is travelling except us. BOO! ha! But I found some pictures of when we use to go out and do stuff. Tomorrow is a day off from work. Our campus celebrates Pioneer Day, so we will be closed. YES! i love days off! :) Hopefully tomorrow we can get out and do some of the fun stuff we use to do during the summer. Especially before I start to get too big. :) And especially since we live like 2 blocks from Rigby Lake.
This is Tahri on a little hike we did in Arizona. It was a nice hard hike.

The 4th

This year for the 4th we didn't do much. We moved into our new place on the 2nd, so we spent a lot of the 4th trying to get organized. It was pretty tough because I was sooo tired and not feeling very good. But that night we met up with the family at the River and watched the fireworks. It was a beautiful night and the fireworks were good. We ordered take out from applebees, and I would not recommend getting take out. The food was all soggy by the time we go to our little area, it just wasn't as good.



Tahri and I waiting for the fireworks to start. i remember thinking none of my pants fit me so i had to wear a dress. hahaha, i was having a fat pregnant day and i think i was only like 12 weeks here. ha!

Roy came to visit Z for graduation and stayed and hung out for awhile. Roy, Mek, Imari, and Kira trying to get into the pic.

Summer

Last summer our little family here started a Polynesian dancing group. It is a small group right now that only consist of our family members, but slowly we are having people from the community join in. We were really busy last summer performing for graduations, ward parties, weddings, reunions and other celebrations, and this summer we have another packed schedule. It has been a little hard on us girls because we are all pregnant right now and especially for me fitting into the costumes is getting tougher and tougher. ha! I shouldn't have tried to make them so tight in the beginning. :) But here are a couple of pictures from last summer, i'll post some of this summer when i download it. It is a little harder getting pictures now because almost everyone is dancing now and Tahri doesn't come as often to the shows. But i'll try to get some of this year.


The So'oto family came down to visit after Vic's game and helped out with the luau. Picture of Lanayia, Checka, Kira and lil Vic in the background.
