Price's Doors is so close to Seven Peaks that we often come for a night swim after working. It is a win win for everyone, especially on Wednesday's when Grandma Great Price brings donuts! And then Grampa Buddy takes the kids to Costco for lunch. Working in the summer hasn't been that bad! I'm so glad, I was so worried the kids would be so bored without friends to play with and Mom to entertain them.
Lexi and Lilly are taking swim lessons. Same girls taught Maddy and Jack many years ago, they are back twins and back from serving a mission. Sweetest kids, and not an easy job I might add. One make up lesson for Lilly she had 7 rambunctious kids in her class. Usually the classes are 5 kids to 2 teachers.
So happy that Lilly is liking the water. She was so afraid of it, and this year is swimming! So proud of her and love these cute girls that teach her.
Jack showing no fears as he jumped off the high dive at the Lehi Outdoor Pool. Lilly loved the water slide and finally figured out she could walk up and down by herself with Dad watching her from below. Mike joined us after work.
We had a great time, almost glad the other pool was closed because the kids had such a great time in this giant pool and with cousins! We swam til pool closed, I picked up some Subway sandwiches we ate them at the the park, then headed to the rest home where Grandma Great is recovering from a fall. She is doing rehab to get stronger and hoping she can come home soon.
Earlier that day and prior to swimming, (7/6) I had a follow up Mammogram. I really wasn't nervous for it, and pretty calm. Our medical insurance (that we purchased for $850 because we do not have insurance til September with Mike's new job) kicked in July 1st, so it was perfect timing for the follow up appointment. I went right it, didn't breathe like they tell you to, got squished and then had to wait for a radiologist to look at my scans. That's when the fears kicked in,my nerves jumped up a level, I said a quick prayer. It didn't help that my mind had been on my Mom's passing all week long. The Dr came in and said your scans look better, the cysts have subsided and that it was reason to celebrate. He said he'll see me in 6 months just because of my background, but that they look great. Tears fell down my face and he said really go celebrate! I couldn't help but think of anyone I wanted to celebrate more with. I texted Mike and Tif and Steve and they were also relieved. Prayers answered. Spent some time at the Cemetery.
Grateful for this to be off my mind right now, I will admit I am stressed. Mike's job is good but we are still working out finances and budget and life working part time for Mom and preschool and school resuming soon, it is nice to not have this on my worry list anymore. Grateful and thankful!

Glad to hear you got a clean bill of health. Sorry you had to go through that on top of everything else.
How is life as a working mom? I am going to look for a job in the fall and I am excited and nervous. I feel so far out of the game because it has been so long. I am not even sure what I am qualified to do. I also worry about the summers. What will my kids do if I'm not home? You take them with you to work? That is so cool!!!
