It is hard to believe that Summer is half over. We have been really busy. The first of July we enjoyed the Hendrickson family reunion at Lyman Lake. Me and the kids went. I think there was about 70 of the Grandpa & Grandpa Hendrickson family that came. It was really nice to see everyone. Then we came home long enough to do laundry and pack again to go camping with brother-in-law Cody. Cody & Lexi have a nice trailer that they let us stay in with them. That made it a lot easier. We had a lot of fun hanging out with them and their friends. There was probably about 50 people that camped with us. Parker ended up getting a fever Saturday night and had it all through the night. We laid in the trailer most of Sunday morning, which was kind of nice, because it ended up raining and snowing. He wouldn't eat anything all day Sunday and by Sunday night I was ready to take him to the ER. Right before I wanted to leave Eric got him to eat. He felt much better once he ate. I also started feeling sick. I had a bad sore throat and cough. It ended up lasting two weeks. I hate being sick in the summer. For the fourth, we went to Eric's friends house, Tyler. He had a BBQ and we watched the Hyrum fireworks.
Parker was suppose to have his tonsils out on July 14th, but the day before Dr. Bennion called and said he needed to cancel the surgery. The anesthesoligist didn't feel comfortable doing the surgery because of Parker's genetic disorder. I was a little disappointed, but understood his concerns. They referred us to Primary Children's. We don't have an appointment until the middle of August and then we will decide what to do.
This week, I work four days and then Eric's mom, Mary, and cousin Camille are coming to visit Thursday night. I am hoping I can talk Eric into going to Bear World on Friday and then we have the 24th of July festivities at the Bear River City park. I am planning on running the 5k. Saturday night we are going to have a BBQ with Sallie and then go to the Preston fireworks.
The kids have enjoyed playing outside with the neighbor kids. Riding their bikes, running through the sprinklers and just enjoying the outdoors. It sure is nice when the weather is nice. It's a little hot, but we at least get outside for a couple of hours a day.
Well that is a summer so far. It will be over before we know it.
