Gosh, Now I've been tagged!

Okay here we go...

1.What is your funniest/ most embarrassing childhood memory? Gosh, these questions start off hard. Thanks Lisa. Um, I guess... ok, 86 the childhood part, we're going more recent. When I was about 7 months prego with baby #3, I was at church with my 2 kids. Sacrament meeting had just got over, I was in a short jean skirt and my kids and I were standing up to go to classes. I tried to fix my kids collar or something and leaned over but lost my balance and down I went. It was horrible. I was trying to keep my legs together so you couldn't see up my skirt, and I just remember thinking how the heck am I going to get up. (remember my husband wasn't there to help me) Needless to say some nice friend of ours came and helped me up. I was laughing my head off. It sucked. So there you go.

2. What dessert just makes you feel happy? On this one I would have to say the Blondie at Applebee's. That thing just makes you smile. For those who haven't tried it, I strongly recommend!

3. Which of your children is most like you and why? I would say Ryan is more like me. Ethan likes run and be crazy, never sitting still. Ryan likes to read and watch movies and just take things easy. Just like her mom. :)

4. What would be your "dream job" and why? My dream job is no job. I just want to have money and not have to work for it. So far it hasn't been working out.

5. What color best matches your personality? I'd have to go with yellow. I think yellow is happy and fun. I'm fun...right?

Now I tag Kim, Stacey, Andrea. Good Luck girls!

Oh, the days of Summer

As your about to see, our summer kept us pretty busy here are a few of some of the things that took place...

These next couple photos, were suppose to be at the end, but I simply just couldn't get them there. Sorry. I threw them in, only because I thought they were cute.

Ryan and Ethan looked adorable on Pioneer Day.

Ryan 1st day of the 1st grade .

Mommy and Reese

I think they like each other.

What else could we do this summer?

We took the kids to a place called Bonnie Springs. It's kind of a fun place to hang out for a day.

We bought a boat and went to the lake often. Here are some of the boys.

We went camping a few times too. It was fun but the nights got cold. I hate that.

My baby with her boyfriend Dax. It's prearranged they just don't know it yet! :)

Nothin like roasted marshmallows.

My kids are so excited to go camping again. They thought the fire was awesome.

some of the girls

My friend Kim and yep, thats my baby. Don't worry mom it only happend once. :) She hated it.

My kids favorite part...the tube.

Ryan turns 6!

For Ryan's birthday, we took her to a place called Pump It Up. It's a private indoor, inflateable party room. With close to 20 of her friends, she had a great 6th birthday.

Can you believe I have a 6 year old. Now thats crazy.

While in Orem...

When we were in Orem for the 4th of July these were some of the things that took place...


Otter pops and slippin slides. What more do you need?

I had to get together with the friends. Stacey your house is adorable! I can't belive that was the first time I've seen some of your kids. :(

Ya know bro, you really are a dork. For some reason I still miss ya though.

Hangin with the family is always a blast. I miss ya!!

Reese's adorable cousins made it a point to not let her get bored. Reese loved it. Thanks Girls.

And of course when 4 kids are in 1 room, it takes a little while to finally fall asleep. Sleepovers are the best!

So, family, friends, popcicles, food...Orem turned out to be a pretty good place to be for a week. I guess we'll have to do it again.

The 4th of July!

Orem is always a fun place to be for the 4th. Too bad Las Vegas doesn't do any cool parades.

We stayed with Mike and Lisa in their new house and made sure we woke bright and early so we'd have somewhere to sit. at the big parade.




The kids had a lot of fun, but then again, who doesn't?




Later that night day, we had a BBQ, put the kids in their jammies, lit off a few fireworks and went to bed. It was a fun day.

Ethan's 4!

We started off our summer with Little Ethan turning 4.





Make a wish..


I must say with our small house and a bunch of little boys,
things got pretty crazy. It was fun though.


Well that about sums it for us. I hope that gives you a little idea of what went on. Now that I am some what caught up, I'll try and keep it that way. Love you all!!
