July was another packed month for us. Started it off with 4th of July...
Then my dad and Kazen's birthday. no pictures sorry!
Swim lessions were this month too! Harpers first time, Adyson's second. Neither of them passed. I thought Adyson did really well compared to last year, but oh well. Harper... well there was no way she was passing. It took her FOREVER to jump into the pool. Her instructor was a boy that i knew from 10th ward when he was about Harper's age!!! He was awesome with the kids! I feel old though. Even through they didn't pass they had a fun time.
Then the Rodeback Reunion out at my Aunt Elaine's house! There was a lot of water involved because it was HOT. We had a lot of yummy food, swam at Allred's pond and corn feed, had a talent show, waterslide, hayride, and of course the candy toss with Grandpa. Poor Harper got stung TWICE by bees at the water slide. At least we found out shes not allergic!
Then it was Taryn's 1st birthday!!!! (separate post just for her!)
And after that the girls had a dance recital!
Also this month I had a specialist visit. Not for my rheumatoid arthritis (which I don't know if I have ever posted on here, surprise I have arthritis!). I have started to notice lumps around my throat since December and finally went in to get it checked last month. They did ultrasounds, and figured they needed a needle biopsy just to rule out cancer. It was the worst. they numbed my neck and then took a long needle and shoved it in my neck for 2 min at a time, and I COULD NOT SWALLOW! Really!? The lumps are in between my vein and throat so one wrong move and it could have been bad. So after that not so pleasant hour and a half (btw- got results back not cancer just random lumps) I was done and went to one of my cousins wedding receptions and saw a lot of my family there. It was a beautiful reception and I wish Zach and Katie all the best. The photographer was awesome!
