On Monday was Marissa's birthday party, so the older girls went to that. It was legend of Zelda themed and they had a lot of fun.

Rea went to girls camp on Tuesday. She was nervous about it before, however she said that she had had a fun time when it was all over.

Some of her favorite parts were going canoeing, doing the testimony meeting on Thursday and doing a skit at the talent show. Rea and the waters girls performed a skit Rea wrote which was about how everyone got their names wrong. Rea got called all three of the waters girls names (despite the fact that they look different, and they also got called Rea's name as well.

The skit exaggerated this tendency. Their friend Abby played a camp director which kept getting the name wrong.

On Tuesday every kid except for Rea went to the dentist. Timmy and Boo had no cavities, however, the other two had some.

Wednesday Mike dropped the car off to get its breaks changed and the auto shop finished the repairs by the end of the day.

In the evening was activity dudes, and Mike and Timmy went with the other boys to see the tabernacle. The line to see it was long, however, it was a fun time.

Andy arrived on Friday and the whole Poulson clan went to In-N-Out We had a fun time eating and talking.

Saturday was mostly spent at the Poulsons, There was a lot of talking and playing, and they even used grandpa's paddleboat to paddle around the lake.

Rea doesn't the night from Friday to Saturday and then went to the temple first thing in the morning. It was Jack's first time ever and Rea's first time away from the Jordan river temple. Sara was sad that she couldn't sleep over like Rea.

We also were given three 5 gallon buckets of apricots by grandpa Mike, and the kids loved eating tons of them. Mike has processed about a bucket full already, so we are working out way through them. He likes to sort them from ripest to greenest so that the ones that are most ripe will not go bad before we get to them.

We might end up making some ape jelly, because we always love that, however so far we have mostly made frozen apes since they are great in smoothies.

Finally, Rea learned his to make animals by stringing beads together. Here is a picture of something she made:
