This week has been going by so fast! Dad and Layton have been having so much fun at Scout camp. They've gone canoeing, ridden horses, gone shooting, etc. And of course they have been loving getting to eat anything Brother Burrel cooks. Aida has been going well. We had a full house opening night and that never happens! Of course, we had all the technical difficulties that come with opening night as well. Tuesday, unfortunately, we didn't do so well. For some reason the professional live band wasn't staying with us and everyone kinda got thrown off. Wednesday and last night went awesome though. And after last night's performance, the whole cast went out to see Get Smart at Harkins. The movie was very very funny. I was laughing the whole time. Yesterday, mom also took Jace, Luke, and Troy to the circus. I was bummed I had to miss it, but they had tons of fun. I'll try to post pictures when i have the chance.

Introduction

Alrighty. So our family finally has a blog. I (Karli) have been given the main job of updating it, but I'm sure my mom will start posting sometime too. For the most part, our summer has been pretty busy.
I leave for summer school PE every morning at 7 and I get home at noon.
Jace helps with the karate classes every morning over at Field Elementary and just finished summer band; he started trumpet and is loving it.
Layton takes Luke over to Poston in the mornings and watches him dive for the dive team. Luke likes it, but is always changing his mind about whether he would want to do swim team instead.
Mom goes to work over at the medical billing office in the mornings, usually from 10:30 -2ish. Most of the time she takes Troy with her.
For the past 3 weeks, I've had musical practice in the evenings from 3-6 for Disney's Aida. The story line is similar to Romeo and Juliet and the music is by Elton John. Performances start this week at Legacy School. Tickets are $12 at the door. Come if you can; it's going to be amazing!
This week, Dad and Layton leave for Scout camp up at our Huber family cabin in Heber. Dad also recently got called to the High Council in our stake. He's a little overwhelmed with all the responsibilities (Primary, Scouting, etc...), but we know he's got it covered.
Well, there's the first post. Hopefully I can keep it running!
