Father's day whip cream fight


Monday was the fifth annual Father's Day Whip Cream Fight at the Lundberg house. This year we only had one child in tears. Wilson was expert at aim and managed to plug everyone's ears with his whip cream. Cooper's strategy was to simply hide until everyone had used up most of their whip cream, and then attack. Eliza was plain FAST! In spite of the whole family smelling like a dairy for a day or so, this event was, as always, a highlight of our year.

We got another picture of Marcos this week. He is growing fast. I was a little concerned about the mosquito bites on his face, but I think I'm over-reacting.

We had a beautiful day at the lake on Thursday night with the Winter's family. Cooper and Wilson are both up on wakeboards and skiis. The kids loved the tube rides and even Max is begging for a turn. The water was cold but smooth like glass so Tony and I had good skiis. The low point was that Jaylynn Winters snapped her hamstring. Ouch. The kids are anxious to invite the Winter's again because they bring great snacks. They also pointed out that the Winter's are fun to have along because they obey the rules and are thankful. I'm so thankful for the lesson they taught by their example.

Today was fast Sunday and we all fasted for the people in town who have been affected by a young man's recent bad choices. It has reminded us that a parent's presence is integral to keep kids safe and that good communication within our family is imperative. It breaks my heart that children my kid's ages have to deal with the effects of sexual abuse and rape. It is a motivator for me to closely follow the spirit.

Tomorrow we are off to Boyer Park for a camping trip. It should be a great (very hot) 4th of July.
