I spaced our day at Bear Lake

Last time, I, blogged...I forgot about our fun day at the lake. It was too fun! The weather ws awsome even though it sprinkled rain on us for a little bit. Ryan was home and so we were excited to go all together as a family.

In a nutshell...

I got behind again, spank me! We have been having quite a bit of fun this summer. We found the "Wyoming beach" it's a spot in the river in the state park where we go play. There is a place to take your chair and the kids have an absolute ball. My neighbor invited us to go down there one day, we loved it and went back about 3 more times that week. One of the times, Ryans 2 sisters, and their kids came and played with us for the day at the "beach" They caught a water snake and about 5 frogs. Good times.
We also went to the Wyoming Downs 3 out of the 4 weekends it was opened. My parents came up for the last 2 and we had a great time. I won my 1st bet ever... in the 2 yrs. we have been going, I always bet a little, but have never won. This yr I was $6.20 when I picked #6 to win. I was pretty pumped!
For now, soccer and t-ball are over, we have slowed down a bunch, it's been nice! Ryans work is picking back up a little now too. So we are back to having to do things without our daddy, not the funnest, but we do what we have to. I am just so glad he has a job and is super good at what he does! He takes such great care of us, we have it pretty good!
I also had a few days with afew extra kids. My niece, Wesley, and my nephew Ashton came up for some fun with Aunt Sue. We went down to the Ice Ponds and caught some crawdads, They thought that was pretty awesome, boys loved showing them how to catch them. Ashton, put a leash on one of the crawdads and walked it and named it George. We had a fun time, but it was sure nice when they all went back home.

Our 4th of July update...

For the 4th this year, we went to the parade in Woodruff. Our nieces were on their horses and aunt Tracy and her boys were on a float for the dentist that she works for. We had a great time. We went to Wyoming Downs after that. Then to our buddy Jacobs house for a bbq and fireworks. The fireworks were insane! I have pictures on my phone of what was left after the fireworks show. I need to email them to myself.

The day after, we went on a walk at the state park here in town with some family and ended up seeing a bull moose, right across the river from where we were. It was awsome to see and the boys loved it!

Here you can see how close we were, Jackson is the only one who stood up to get in the picture.
Right when we got done taking his picture, he walked away, good timing on our part.
My next subject is kind of my new hobby, it gives me a rush...no laughing! I got into this bargain grocery shopping thing. Yesterday I could not help, but set it all up on the counter and take pictures of what I bought for $34.00 check it out!
10 boxes of Capri Suns....38 cents a box. 3 boxes of my favoritte cereal, .67 cents a box. The list goes on and on, but I am pretty pumped about it. My shelves downstairs have never been so stalked up. It's so nice!

Mayson also lost yet another tooth. First one on the top he is getting too grown up!

How would it be?

This is how we found Jackson in his room yesterday. Guess he played way to much. Ryan and I had a good laugh and wondered how awsome it must be to be able to fall asleep mid-movement. He's a super fun kid, he keeps us on our toes.

We talked our Daddy into builing a sandbox today. The boys are in heaven. I am quite certain that they will spend a lot of time playing in the sand. They brought mostof the sand inside with them, it was bath night. Jackson had sand caked on his head, I put sunscreen on him right before they got to play in the sand. I'll be scrubbing the bathtub tomorrow! It's so great to actually have some sunshine after all the rain we've had this summer. We are loving it!

Here are 2 months of things...too far behind to write everything!

It feels like it has been months...

So much has been going on the past few weeks...this may be a long post.
We went to Smithfield, Health Days. That is where I grew up and Health Days was always a big deal. The boys loved the parade, but there favorite was eating pancakes at the fire station and hanging out with all of the firemen and their trucks. That weekend was also Mothers Day weekend. I wished my Mom a happy Mothers day one day early. We got home in time to go to bed and in the morning I awoke to breakfast in bed. It was so cute. I got blueberry, stuffed french toast, hash browns, sausage and juice, it all came along with a pretty pink rose in a vase.
They are they sweetest boys ever!

This is my cute niece, Machesney...on mothers day her and her sisters and Bailey dipped strawberries in chocolate. They ate every strawberry before they even had time for the chocolate to set up. Machesney is such a chocolate girl, I chased her around to get pictures of her. She couldn't get enough, notice the chocolate on her knuckles.
I got to be a chaperon for a field trip to hogle zoo with the kindergarten. Mayson had his cute little girlfriend, Jessica Stimpson for a partner. They had so much fun together, I caught them cuddling on the bus...so freakin cute!

My little Jackson had a cute program at the preschool he goes to. It was kind of a graduation, but he still has 2 yrs. of preschool before kindergarten. He was so adorable. Front and center on stage, singing his little heart out. I videoed it, I'm going to try to put some of it on here. Here are a few pictures taken after the program.

MY BABY RIDES A BIKE WITH NO TRAINING WHEELS

Off he goes!

We have been telling Jackson that if he can ride his bike with no training wheels, he would be able to ride the 4 wheeler when we go camping this summer. Well, he must have gotten the itch to go camping and ride the 4 wheeler because he decided he wanted his training wheels off! He had ridden his cousin, Tanners bike pretty good a few weeks ago, so I figured he could do it. He rode his old, bent bike for a few days, then his daddy decided he could use a new one. He was at preschool when we went and got him a new bike and when we picked him up from school Ryan showed him the bike in the back of the truck. His eyes have never been so excited, he about jumped out of Ryan's arms. Anyway, he is riding pretty good, not so good downhill, but he'll get it!I also walked into my bedroom the other night...this is what I found. I just think they are so stinkin cute (especially asleep) I just had to grab the camera. We had no idea they had crawled ino our bed and gone to sleep. We just thought they got really quiet. Ryan and I were downstairs watching a movie.
