Home Improvements

July has been a busy month for us as far as repairs.  Larry Denzil finally got the boys triple bunk built.  Extremely heavy bed that is definitely staying here after we move.  Anyways, it has made their room less crowded and more livable.  




We also got a free bunk bed for the girls.  Savannah loves it.  Ruby could care less, but she is out of the crib and in a big girl bed.  Just one more milestone she has met.



Larry Denzil was out of town this week so I did some home improvements of my own.  I installed curtains in the kids bedrooms and I painted their bathroom.  Painting a bathroom sounds easy unless it is my kids bathroom.  I had to repair all the holes, do some sanding, and wipe down all the fingerprints and crayon marks.  My kids love me.  Anyways, after a day of sweat and tears, I was able to put a fresh coat of melon green paint on the walls.  Yes it is bright, but very kid appropriate.  They love it.

Wow, I would never even think of tackling a painting job on my own. It looks awesome!

I can't believe Ruby is in a big girl bed! Our kids are growing up on us. Actually, though, I still have Carter in a crib and am going to keep him in it until we have a new baby. It doesn't bother him to sleep in it and I know he isn't going anyplace!

Girls Camp

 This year, Savannah got to attend her very first girls camp. Here she is with Morgan, another first timer.  Not sure how Savannah would have done without Sister Skroski. She showed Savannah the ropes and really took care of her in my absence.  Savannah all excited to leave. I can only guess what these last few pictures are. Savannah had a great time and Larry was there as a priesthood chaperone so she was not completely alone. This summer was a summer of firsts for my girl. She had her first girls camp, her first youth Temple trip and her first talk in sacrament. Wow!

Tennessee Adventures with the Hurts

 This summer, Ethan was able to go to Denzil's for 2 weeks. Of course he had a blast, and came back a new boy. He learned to ride a bike, and came home darker if that s at all possible. To drop Ethan off, we met Jason & Sheba , in Knoxville. Sheba's GPS found this neat park in rather a shady area of Knoxville. Emalene is a good model, always willing to pose when I say smile.  Here is my little Ruby in deep concentration.  Ethan did not even look back when he left me.  Gator with the big boys.  Emalene in her favorite color, and Ruby in hers. How cute are they?  A group shot at the drop off.  These monkey bars, kept the kids entertained for a while. Each one tried to make it across. Not sure any succeeded.  Here is Gator trying to reach.  Finally he found a sucker.  Look at him hang by himself.  Denzil looks very unsure about this. We thought we could get a group shot, but the wheel kept spinning and little arms got tired.  The two amigos.  A group shot at t
