hammock time

We spent a Friday evening at Matt and Jamie’s sitting around the fire pit and making smore’s and laying in the hammock with cousins.

ROSE loves Food - this morning she ate an entire orange! and She LOVED it.

Ryan had a few days off this week and he finished framing, installed plumbing and hooked up the electrical for our bathroom/laundry room!! I’d like to say that I helped alot but mostly I just ran to Ace or Home Depot and got things we neeed when Ryan needed them. Anyone want to come do the sheet rock? that’s the next step.

On Friday Ben had the day off so we went up to the park with Ryan and Tara and their kids. We set up a slip n slide and brought a picnic lunch and had a blast. Here is the proof…

Packer - love the smile

Taylee could cruise down!

Kylee flying past Cali.

Benji trying to get some speed - he got braver and faster each time.

I like this one with Brinlee and Cali at the bottom. Brinlee LOVED the slide.

I took some fun video but I’m still not video savvy on my blog so you’ll have to take my word for how much fun it was and just imagine Ryan and Ben and I flying down and doing amazing tricks 🙂

lunch time

Friday evening Ben and I watched the last Harry Potter and ate at The Harvest at Thanksgiving Point. He actually received an award at work and part of the award was the day off of work and an evening out all expenses paid! So we enjoyed an evening with no kids and the next morning we took the motorcycle up the American Fork Canyon for a scenic ride. It was fun but we will need to upgrade the motorcycle before I go any further than that 🙂

21 miles into AF Canyon

Saturday evening we went out for Udine’s birthday. We had sandwiches at the Thanksgiving Point Cafe before watching Captain America (I know, 2 movies in 2 nights – both at the  theater with NO kids! Can’t remember ever doing that – We were spoiled this weekend and it was awesome.) As tradition goes we grabbed shakes at JCW’s and then we came home and met up with cousins at Udine’s house for fireworks to celebrate the 24th!! Now it is Sunday… calm and relaxing. We are enjoying our down time. Summer is flying by – I really wouldn’t mind if it slowed down a little…
