The 4th
We spent the fourth at the beach. Yes, we found parking. Yes, we had to pay twenty bucks for parking. And yes we had fun!!! That evening we headed to grandma and grandpa's for dinner where were treated to the annual BBQ and baton twirling. After dinner we headed to the Stake Center lawn for some fireworks. It was perfect.
Scott's birthday
We celebrated by going out to dinner TWICE! Once with the kids, which shouldn't count because it was more stress than fun. Side note, never take Foster to a restaurant unless it's Chuck E Cheese. The second dinner was spent with just Scott and I at one of our favorite restaurants, The Fish Market. I have no picture to post but just imagine Scott and I by the bay gazing into each other's eyes. Is it just me or is this photo really beautiful? Anyway, happy 32nd birthday Scott!
James the Brave
So I did a little work in July. After much consideration, Tess and I decided that we would turn the illustration portion of the book over to my publisher. I was sad to lose the collaboration with Tess but she has continued to be a great help in selecting my illustrator. Which I now have done! Her name is Leanna Crossan and she is amazing. Here is a sneak peak of
what she is cooking up for me.
The book is well on it's way and is making great time for a holiday release! I honestly cannot wait!
Honorable mentions:
•Foster can say stinky now. Guess who taught him that?
•James is getting very excited for Joy School (so am I) which starts in September.
•We went to the ward campout and had an amazing time. Can't wait to go again next year!
