Where has the time gone?

I can't beleive it is almost July!!! Well let me try and catch everyone up on what has been happening with our

family. On May 30 and 31st Rob and I participated in Day on the Lake - It was my 11th year out of 12. Sarah was also there. Sarah spent most of the time on the Fishing boat with Rob and Dennis - I owe her BIG TIME!!! The boys actually did behave! They took numerous participants out to try and catch a fish, we seemed to have more people who wanted to fish and less fish that wanted to be caught! = )I spent my time on the Dock being Co-Dock Master. It is the only 2 days a year that I actually have permission to tell people where to go! I do it very well and yes Mom I am polite!
We had our first incident in 12 years - one of our participants had to be air evacted out on Friday - Fortunatly he was fine, he received some stitches in his head and then came back on Saturday to give us all ice cream bars. He is an incredible guy!!!

There we 125 participants in 2 days!!! It was absolutly amazing and I personally had an incredible time! It is so wonderful to see all the smiling faces and to be a part of something so rewarding!

On this same weekend Emmalee spent the weekend with Papa Jim and Nana and Bradley and Josh flew to New Orleans to see Grandma Rosemary and Grandpa Al. Our Niece Sarah got married! We would love to see the pictures!! We want to wish Sarah and Kevin a wonderul and Happy Life together! We hear the wedding was beautiful! We are sorry we could not be there!

We found out that Emmalee definatly is a Greenlee - she LOVES RED LICORICE!!!!!!!! We have proof!!!

Papa Ron and Grandma Mickey (Uncle Ron and Aunt Jan) brought over something for Emmalee to ride!!! It is a Harley! Zoe had used it and they decided it was time to let Emmalee start training! Emmalee was very unsure of it at first but now she zooms as fast as she can and she makes sound effects as well!

The verdict is still out but we think Emmalee is really a dolphin or a fish!!! We got into the swimming pool for the first time a couple weeks ago and I was amazed at how calm she was. I was expecting her to have a death grip on me but she let me bounce and went under water about 5 times and then wanted to walk the steps... Finally decided she wanted to jump to Mommy from the steps.Last Weekend I spent Friday at ASU with Sarah and about 200 hundred athletets - The US. Paralympic Time Trials for Track and Field were held at ASU and we volunteered! Sarah was there for four days and I made it out on Friday for both the morning and the afternoon. They would not let anyone on the track from 11:30 to 5:30 daily because of the temperatures! It was amazing to see the determination of these individuals! The Paralympics will be held in Bejing about 1 month after the Olympics! We are hoping the events will be televised. I know several of the athletes and am looking forwarding to cheering them on. On Friday there was a gentlman who has both of his legs amputated above the knee - he ran with both legs in prothstheics - it was AMAZING! I will share some pictures soon!

I will try and add some video of Emmalee talking and dancing! She is such a happy little girl! She loves her brothers and pretty much follows them around when they are home!

More to come soon - I promise

Love Jill and family!
