So much going on

I have been such slacker about keeping up on my blog. Things have been really crazy. Here is a re-cap of the past two weeks.












May 27th

Spencer and Cami came over to play with us. Spencer brought over a bug catcher and the boys had so much fun finding bugs. Of course they were all dead, but hey that is okay. They also rode bikes, played on the skate board and played in the sand.

For Broc'sB-Day he got a slip N slide, we set that up and they couldn't quite figure out how to slide on their tummy. It was pretty funny to watch them, they would get a running start and just run down the slide, then slip at the very end or sit on their bums at the end. All in all they had a great time.


June 2nd

Broc went to a new dentist today. They were wonderful with him and he was very good. He wasnt scared at all. He loved it when they took his X-Rays and then when he went to sit in the chair he started watching Monsters Inc. So he was in the zone the whole time. When it came time for her to put some water in his mouth and suck it out she would say, give it a kiss, and it was a long kiss if i do say so my self, but he got all the water out. The end results, GREAT TEETH AND NO CAVITIES!!!!!!!!!

Lately I have been hearing about this new water park in South Ogden behind the Ogden Athletic Club. It was finally warm enough for us to go. Our freind Amy, her daughter Hadley and one of the other neighbor kids came and they had a great time. It was a small one, but it was free 99! BONUS. They also had two different play grounds next to it as well, so if they got bored with the water they could play on the playground.






June 5th

I found out in April that they have this bike race for raising awarness for Breast Cancer, it is called the Red Ridding Hood Bike Race. It is up in Wellsville (just before Logan, right out of the canyon). I had every intension of riding in it but guess I didnt finish filling out the entry form the whole way and didnt get in. However my sister in law Amber was able to get in and she loves to ride. She entered to ride the 100 mile race. We stayed the night up in Logan so she wouldnt have to get up too early to be up there. The next morning I took the kids to breakfast and then we hung out in town for a little then went to the park where the race finished at. At the park the kids played for about three hours and they were so good.

It rained all night and into the morning, so the rodes where slick and there was also a very strong head wind. But she totally kicked butt and finished in I believe 6 hours. Great job. The funny thing is is the kids and I were waiting right by the rode to watch her come in and somehow we missed her. So she calls us to ask where we are and we were like well where are you and she said I am done and at the finish line. We are such dorks, I really wanted to cheer her on, oh well maybe next year. Great job Amber!!


One more thing that has been going on around here is our mad rush to get the basement done, or somewhat done. My sister and her family moved back from Nebraska and needed a place to stay until their house sells so they are staying with us. The basement looks awesome! We just need to put the trim up, paint and carpet and it will be done. But that is going to have to wait as we need to save a little bit more money. So we now have a full house, I never thought I would say I have a full house, but we do there is 9 people here. I dont think we are cramped but then I am not sleeping down stairs, so hopefully they are comfortable. Broc sure loves having someone to play with everyday. As soon as her kids are up he gets up and wants to start playing. The other day when we were on our way home from running errands he says, "Mom is my family home for me to play with?" It is so cute! When he says his prayers at night he thanks Heavenly Father for "letting his cousins come to play everyday"

Well that is all that has been going on here. Hope everyone is enjoying the start of their summer and hope everyone is happy and healthy.
