First off Tyler graduated from Jr. High. I can't believe there will be a high schooler in my house! How did that happen? We are exctited (and nervous) to enter into this new phase of life! SEMINARY!! OH BOY!!
As soon as school was over Tyler was off to EFY!! He had so much fun! He was spiritually fed, got some much needed independance from his parents, made new friends, and had the oppurtunity to expereiance a taste of BYU life!(We are hoping this will inspire him to try to get there in four years)
Some new buddies. Do you recognize those mountains in the backround?
Olivia went to her first year of Girls Camp this summer! I don't know who was more excited, me or her!!! I was lucky enough to be her councilor. I have been to camp a few times, but never as a councilor. That job always seemed very overwhelming to me, but I have to say, I had a blast. Don't get me wrong, it was tough, but very rewarding and fun!
Kelly and Olivia, just finished the Polar Bear Swim! They had to jump into a ice cold lake at 6a.m.! They were rewarded with darling necklaces and Klondike bars for deseret that night!
Here are my girls at the end of the week! Do they look tired and sunburned?!!

Olivia went to grandma camp for a week in July. She had a blast! Grandma and Grandpa took all of the girl cousins (sans Eliza) for a week of fun. While Olivia was at G.C. Tyler had the awesome oppurtunity to go to Havasu Pai. He went with his uncle Tommy and cousin Kendall. I wish I had some pictures to show what a beautiful place it is! David and I came down at the end of the week to join in on the fun.
Here are my nieces Maddy, Sierra, my Olivia, and a friend at Sierra's 12th birthday party.
THE VANCE COUSINS- starting from top left...Kendall, Tyler, Sierra, Eliza, Olivia, and Maddy.
Tyler getting in on the fun!
We had the oppurtunity to go to the Del Mar Fair, while we visiting David's Family. I love that fair. It is the best I've ever been to. It is held right next to the beach! Need I say more!!!
Eliza on her pony ride! Can you tell she loved it?
Tyler getting in on the fun!
This is the ride Tyler had to go on. OK you go right ahead... Dad and I will sit this one out!
He is up there somewhere...
He made off all in one piece and not even a trace of green gills!!!
When we got home our neighborhood had a 4th of July parade and picnic! It was a lot of fun. We live in a great neighborhood with lots of kids and great people!
Eliza getting ready to ride in the parade!

What's a 4th of July picnic without watergames?!
Off course we have been enjoying the pool. We finally got all of our plants in and the yard looks great! Someday I will post some before and after pictures!
