St. Anthony Sand Dunes

This past weekend we went to the Sand Dunes in Idaho with our freinds Spank & Amy and Dustin and Janette. It was Broc's first time going out to the Dunes. My sister in law let us borrow her Rhino. It didnt go to many places but it was a lot of fun driving it around. Kris took Broc out one time and was trying to go up this big bowl and tipped it over, thankfully no one was hurt just a little scared was all.
Kris went on a couple rides with some freinds and had a great time as usual. Since I sold my bike last year I really didnt have anything to ride. Which was sucked but I really couldnt have gone to far with Broc anyway. So as you can tell from the pics below I did a lot of reading.
Broc also got to ride in our freinds parents sand rail. He had a great time in that and pretty much wanted to stay right there with him because he thought he was so cool.
Up there they have a couple little lakes or ponds, in the afternoon we played in those and that kept us pretty cool.
Since we were "Camping" we decided to borrow our freinds tailor that had a generator with air conditioning in it. It was nice and out of the elements but I still wish I would have had a shower. To get cleaned off I filled up a small bowl and made Broc stand in it and washed him off as best as I could. I mean this is like a bowl that you would put a salad in. Nothing big. With me since I am just a tiny bit smaller than him I just washed off my feet and arms and legs and called it good. I guess I am just not the camping type. Even though I had hardly any hair I sitll felt gross. But it was pretty fun. Lets just say next time I would rather pay for a hotel room, it was probably the same price as the camp site. But you cant beat a camp fire with freinds!
Oh yeah on the way home we got a blown tire on the trailor. But the boys handled it well and we were on our way in a half hour.

1st Day of Pre-School

I cant believe my baby is going to school. He is growing up so quickly and to be such a kind and handsome young man. He started on Tuesday and goes every Tuesday and Thursday. On Monday night he was so excited, but thankfully he feel asleep quickly. But he woke up earlier than normal and by the time I got back from my walk at 8 he was all ready dressed and had eaten breakfast and brushed his teeth. I just had to do his hair. He kept asking "can we go yet". I have to say I dont think I really cried, but I did get teary eyed when leaving him there.

Kris and I took him together and that was really nice that he was able to come. We walked in and he hung up his little backpack and just started watching the kids play, then he started playing. I said give me a hug and kiss and he did then said, "bye mom c-ya later" I am happy and sad that he was not scared. When it came time to pick him up I asked him what they did and he just said, "oh I dont know". The next day he kept asking what day he gets to go to school again. I told him Thursday and he was thrilled. Wednesday night came and I told him he needed to get to bed and he asked why and I told him he had school tomorrow and he went straight to bed. This morning he woke up at 7:30 and said he was ready to go to school again.

I am so glad he is excited about learning and playing with Friends.
Here is my some pics of my Handsome Man.

New Mexico

My oldest sister lives in New Mexico, my brother and his family were headed that way so I taged along with them. We went on July 19th and came home on July 25th. A little late on my posts I know!
We had so much fun just chillin and the kids had a blast. I think I all ready wrote about it but never posted any pics.
Here are the pics, hope you enjoy them as much as I did.

Bike Ride

Since Broc had gotten a new bike for his birthday we have been trying to ride as much as possible. We like to go on this little trail that is right by the Weber River to ride our bikes. Usually we don't make it very far because Broc's old bike would always get a flat or the chain would come off. However this time I knew that wouldn't happen because we have a warranty on this very nice bike that it would never get a flat and the chain would not fall off. I thought we were SAFE. We invited Kristin and the kids to come with us and we started along and about a mile and half in poor Gabbi's tire went flat. Being the prepared person she is Kristin brought a bike pump and some slim for the tire. I had no clue how to put slim in a tire but she sure did. We fixed it but the tire was now budging and we didn't want to risk the tire popping so we headed back. Now two weeks later the tire still is bulged but still working. Great job Krid on fixing the bike. We are ready when you are to go again.

They also added on to the park way and part of it you have to go under a bridge, the kids thought that was so awesome. The kids each had to make noises while going under it, I have pics of the kids doing that but you cant really see them very well so I didnt post those.

Afterwards we took the kids to get Ice Cream at Farrs. Yummy!!!!

Boating at Willard Bay

Our friends Robert & Heidi took us to Willard Bay boating. At first I thought Broc would be a little scared to get in because you cant see the bottom, but since he had his life jacket on he jumped right in. That is all he wanted to do was jump off the back of the boat. He also went on the Tube with their son Noah and also with Kris. He laughed the whole time and kept wanting to go faster. I was so nervous for him. At one point he flew off and it really scared him but once he saw we werent leaving him we were just turning the boat around he laughed. When he fell off I wanted to jump right in and Kris told me no, he was just fine. Afterwards we were walking down to our car (our freinds had all ready left) and Kris asked me for the keys. I said I didnt drive I dont have the keys. Well he left them in boat and they had all ready left. We tried to get a hold of them and they wouldnt answer, thankfully we live very close, we called our friends to come to our rescue. Thanks Amy & Spank, you saved us from a long, hot walk.

Slip N Slide

Grandma Chris bought a whole bunch of this tarp stuff and turned it into the best slip in slide ever. The kids had a blast and thanks to Uncle Cole for keeping it wet and keeping the kids sliding!

Swimming with family

We had a small party with some cousins a couple weeks ago. We had hot dogs, chips, candy, all sorts of good stuff. They slip in slide, swam in our little pool, and ran through the sprinklers. They had a pretty good time.

I Hate Mesquitos

My friend Amy and I have been walking almost every morning. Well a couple weeks ago we went walking and were less then a mile away from home and we were literally attacked by mesquitos. So we ran home. This is the result of all those mesquitos! A day later I came down with the worst cold, I was so sick and down in bed for like two days. I HATE MESQUITOS!!!

Family Reunion Pics

I am so far behind on gettin pics on here. I dont know if it would be best to do a slide show or just post a few pics, so I will do both. Enjoy!
