Fall is here

Some of my favorite things about fall approaching
-The cold weather
-The warm clothes
-The holidays approaching
-The smell of the crisp air
-The trees changing colors
Most people don't enjoy the cold weather or the rainy days during fall, but there is nothing better than being able to get in your pajamas curl up on the couch with a blanket wrapped around and watching movies and drinking hot chocolate.

I LOVE FALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

State Fair

Jakob and Kaeden excited to go to the state fair.

Must Read

If you haven't read this book you need to. I just finished reading it and I loved it.
It had me laughing 99.9% of the time. I love how honest and truthful this book is about motherhood.

Doing so much, so little time

Well we have been up to a lot of stuff. I've been so busy. James is really enjoying his job he works for VCBO Architeture Co. He is in charge of their Marketing Department. We have been doing a lot with family. We just recently went to the Greek Festival and it was so much fun. We have never been and thought we should check it out. I think the boys enjoyed the greek dancers the best.

BBQ with Friends

We got invited out to a BBQ that Audrey's mom was having. We had really good food and it was nice to catch up with my best friend Audrey and her family. I really miss Audrey. But we plan on seeing each other every six months. Also a big thank you to Verna and Jose for having us over.

Together again

We were so excited when we found out that Audrey, Tony, A.J. and logan were coming to U*. We had to see them. We went with them to the Natural History Museum. As you can tell they enjoyed spending time with each other.

Fun, Fun, and more Fun

Me and my sisters decided to take our kids to the park. We went to a bird show, then we went on some amusement rides that were at the park.


































And what would be a day at the park without being able to play in the water and get wet.

Snail Races

If your ever bored on a rainy day. You could always have a snail race. My Mom and Jakob were outside and it started to rain and all the snails came out. So they decided to have a race. Jakob named his speedy and my Mom called hers Porky. Jakob's climbed to the top of the stairs first. So Speedy won.

The proud winner.

Trying to stay cool

We decided to get away from the heat and go swimming.

Vacation time is over

We have been waiting for an answer back from one of the Marketing companies James interviewed with and the answer came today he starts on Monday. James is a working man again after being a student for two years. We are going to be here in U*. We are really excited to be here with family again.

Horse Parade

My mom and I took the boys to see the horse parade. They loved seeing all the different types of horses.

Canyon Fun

My family went up to Little Cottonwood Canyon the other day. We were celebrating my dad and brothers birthday. I have really missed being around for our families outings and spending time with them.










My brother in law Nate got this really fun game that's called lasso golf. I think the kids had more fun running around with the balls then playing the game.















If Kaeden or Jakob look like this when it's time to go home we know it was a good day at the canyons.

ITS THAT TIME OF YEAR

It's that time of the year
for the red white and blue
They stand for freedom
in all you say and do

Show off those colors
for all the world to see
Fly them proudly over
the air the land and sea

We celebrate the birth
of our blessed country
It surely is indeed
the land of the free

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!
