Ice Skating

Robert shows his skills ice skating...

So we tried to do a family outing by going to the ice rink. The place is where Robert used to live (ghetto) jk, so he showed us his mad skills. Ella tried to go but didn't last long, i mean she lasted 2 seconds and said the skates were to tight and she wanted a hot chocolate, who can blame the girl. So Clayton kept going he loved it. He fell a few times but wants to go back.

Don't ever try to find gloves in July it is impossible, they have adult gardening gloves on.

Ella two seconds of fun!!

Cade always has fun as long as there is a good bottle close by.

A Month Of Celebrations...

July= Party....

This month has been full of fun and excitement. July started off by a great fourth of july party, then I had my birthday which i will not be talking that much about. The day after my birthday we threw Cade a birthday party (a week early but i was in a wedding on his actual birthday). His party had 35 people there and we had a great bbq swim party with family and great friends. He fell asleep half way threw but he lasted longer than i thought he would. It was a great day and I can not believe he is already one.

Like I said before I was in a wedding and obviously when you say wedding of course that come with a lot of partys. I was the Matron of Honor so it was a whirlwind of fun. Last month I threw my friend Brooke a bridal shower but a few weeks ago her sister in law hosted a bachelorette fparty, then her family cameinto town and so we had another bachelorette party/ shower. it was so much fun.

So obviously there was a wedding, a big so much fun, dance all night wedding. The day started at 7 am with us getting our hair and makeup done. We took lots of pictures and then the ceremony. (Side note my friend Brooke is one of the most creative, fun loving and entertaining person i know) The reason I mention this is because for the last six months we had choreographed and practiced a whole routine for the bridal party to do at the reception, but as fun as this was it wasn't enough so Brooke decided she wanted the bridesmaids to walk into the ceremony to the song "Then he kissed her" and we did a special walk/choreographed dance down the isle. It was so much fun. The whole day was great and Brooke and her husband Raymond are so happy and I was so excited to be apart of this fun day.

4th of July Festivities!!!

Fun Fourth!!

so we had a great, fun but long fourth of july. We started out for a breakfast with our ward, the breakfast burritos were really good. Then we went straight over to my parents house where we had a bbq with my aunt and my cousins family, and we all went swimming.

My mom and I had a watermelon carving contest, of course mine won.

After Robert did snakes with the kids then the cousins left.

We then went back to the backyard and started a fire to make Smores.

Those are always good. When it got dark we did fireworks even though my kids were all scared. We had a lot of fun and it was fun to remember what fourth of july is all about.
