Summer Band Concert
Last night was the Finale Concert for the Columbia Public Schools Summer Music Camp that the girls have been in for the last 3 weeks. They participated in Music Theory (which included guitar, piano, and world percussion), Flute Class, and Advanced Concert Band. They played Legend of the Eagles, Shaker Variants, The Big Circus March, and Highlights from the Wizard of Oz. It was nice for the girls to play side by side in a band together. What is amazing is this is a free program! Here is a video of The Wizard of Oz:

BBQ, Bday Cake, and the Big 4-0
Friday was Jared's 40th birthday, so we had a few people over to help us celebrate. I mean, somebody had to help eat all that cake, right? I would hate to see another fondant covered cake go in the trash!
Thanks to Jared for doing all the meat-- smoked brisket and pulled pork. It was delicious! It was well worth the alarm going off at 3 in the morning! And thanks to everyone who came to help wish Jared a happy birthday. It was so nice to be surrounded with all you younger people! It turns out that all three members of the bishopric have birthdays in July-- and our new bishop is so young that he brings the average age of the bishopric members down to a little over 37!
Jared you are fabulous at forty! Have a wonderful year ahead!

Summer So Far
So far we have enjoyed lots of Summer activities. The girls got to go to grandma's and their cousin's and do all sorts of fun things in Tulsa. They each made a super cute quilt. While they were gone, Jared and I spent a day in Kansas City to celebrate our anniversary. We shopped, ate, and went to see Michael Buble in concert at the Sprint Center. It was so great! While at home we grilled a lot since the weather was so nice. So we could enjoy the outdoors even more, Jared and I worked on staining the deck. It made a huge difference and looks so nice. We also added a new fire pit. We used it for the first time on the Fourth of July cooking hot dogs and s'mores! The other patriotic thing we did that day was to watch the wimbledon finals (ha! ha!) Jared gave the girls a couple of lessons over the weekend, then they went to go play tennis and frisbee golf with him on Monday, since he had an extra day off. Now the girls have started Summer Band and we are about to celebrate Jared 's 40th birthday! Here are a few pictures of what's been going on!
