I am ♥LOVING♥ my garden!! This year is SO much better . . . AND NO SLUGS . . . (so far)! My strawberries are HUGE and keep coming, and the bees are back in town so I don't have to make my zucchini do 'you know what'. Now I just am waiting on my tomatoes and carrots.
Salmon
We took a trip this weekend down to Soldotna, about a three hour drive south, to catch some fish. We stayed with some friends that spoiled us and let us drop in last minute. While Jason dipnetted from the beach, the kids and I went to the local parade and played with friends. On our way home, we stopped in Hope to fish for Pink Salmon. We don't like to eat pinks, so it was strictly catch and release and let the kids get the feel for fishing with a pole. It was too cute! They each caught a few, and would've stayed longer, but daddy was famished, so off we went. It was a great weekend, and the kids were so glad their dad took them fishing!!!
Raspberry Panthers
Kali & Meg played on the same team this year, and Jason was their coach. It was quite the season. It's funny to see the difference between the 6 yr olds and the 7 yr olds. The 6 yr olds half the time would be in La-La-Land, and the first three games Meg was playing on the field and ran off the field to pick me some flowers, delivered them to me, then returned to play in the game. The 7 yr olds were much more determined to get goals and to win the game. Kali & Meg got thier first goal this year! They were so excited about that!! I know that they don't keep track of winning/losing at the U8 level, but for us soccer players (Jas & I) we just couldn't resist not keeping track of how the girls did and who made goals. We were ALMOST undefeated! ESPECIALLY when U8's aren't supposed to have goalies. We were the ONLY team that NEVER used a goalie!!! Here is our record for the year!
5-0 WIN
2-4 LOSE
{It was 80 that day though, so they were exhausted}
4-3 WIN
7-2 WIN
1-0 WIN
3-0 WIN
3-3 TIE
7-4 WIN
Scentsy
So in addition to marketing Artisty Cosmetics, I decided last week to be a Scentsy Consultant. If you don't know what Scentsy is, they make wick-less candles. They make ceramic warmers that melt jam packed scented wax. They are considered the 'new' Salt City Candle and are very popular!! Everyone who looks at them seems to really like them.
So if any of you want to Host an Open House for free products, need to order new scents, or just curious of what they are . . . Let me know. Here's my website.
Cabin on the 4th
The kids LOVE going to my parents cabin! That is an understatement to say the least! Owen for about a year now has been thanking Heavenly Father for "the cabin" in his prayers . . . seriously! They love jumping off the dock and swimming in the lake. Owen LOVES boat rides! This year was especially nice with the 78 degree weather . . . wish we could be there all week with the forecast looking the same. Hope everyone had a great 4th of July! Here's some cute pix of the weekend . . .
Owen and his fishing pole!

The warm weather couldn't keep them on the dock!
Canoeing in the trees before my parents burn this sucker!
