Jason's Birthday

Jason turned 2 last Saturday. I just can't believe how fast these boys are growing up. I can't believe he is two already. I just seems like yesterday that he was a little baby in my arms. I am so grateful that I am able to be at home with my two wonderful children everyday and watch them grow. I am so happy to be their mother and to have a wonderful husband that I have grown closer to in the past few years. I feel so lucky and I am so happy.

Jason and his birthday cupcake.

Yummy.

What a handsome little face!!

Go, Diego, Go toys from us.

Tyler likes them too.

Jason loves being a big boy...sitting next to Lissa and Grandma.

Handy Manny toys from Grandma and Grandpa. This is Tyler's favorite show in the whole wide world, so hopefully we won't have too many fights over this toy. I know it's going to be a favorite.

The Handy Manny toy came with this cute hat. I think the boys look adorable in it.

Cory and Tyler go for a hike

Tyler was getting kind of anxious on the last day we were at the cabin so Cory was able to take him on a little hike. Tyler came back just so excited. He had a lot of fun.

They are buddies.

Cory said that Tyler was getting a little worried because there were by a street and he kept saying that they were going to far. HA!

Snow, Snow, Snow.

Cute smile.

Jason and Kayla

Jason and Makayla are so cute together. She is like a little mother to him. I'm sure he just loves all the attention that she gives him. He just loved to follow her around and she would pick him up and just treat him like a baby. It was cute.

A few random pictures from the trip

I just had a few random pictures from last week.

Like this one....we went for a drive and look what we saw....a pet bobcat anyone..anyone. Pretty funny I thought.

Cute picture of me.

Jason is the biggest snuggler, ever. He just loves to be held and when you pick him up, he will just rest his head on your shoulder. Melissa is the master at this.

This is what Tyler was always doing in his spare time. Computer browsing. Hey, at least we had WiFi. What would we do without our laptops.

HA HA HA....I introduced all the ladies into the wonderful world of Kanzashi Flowers. Fun stuff.

Games

What's a vacation without some good old family board games. I wasn't able to play this one, but I know they were laughing the night away. I heard them. They were loud. HA HA!!

Cory and Melissa.

Laurie and Amy.

Melissa and Nate.

Shooting

We were able to go shooting the second and third days we were at the cabin. Amy and Tyler brought a few of their guns that we all used. It was nice because the place where we shot at was only a few miles away. Maybe 10 minutes.

I'm ready to shoot.

Look at all those bullets.

Just a baby gun. This is one Makayla shot.

Won't my Mom and Dad be so proud. HA!!

I look hot.

Amy and Tyler are pros. She's a really good shot. But...how long have you guys been shooting?

Cory's turn. He was good too.

Cute, cute, cute Makayla.

The cabin in McCall.

Last weekend we were able to spend some time with the Miles family at the Simplot Cabin in McCall. We had a lot of fun even though it snowed and rained. I enjoyed just staying indoors and not having to worry much about anything. It was a much needed vacation that we enjoyed.

The front of the cabin.

Side view...it is much bigger than it looks.

The lake.

The docks. It was fun to walk down there and look out onto the lake.

Back of the cabin.

McDonald's in Boise

On the way to McCall, we stopped in Boise so the kids could run around McDonalds for awhile. It was a much needed break for all of us. Tyler loves to play in the play-land. It was so worth the extra hour!!!

Jason and me!!!

Tyler said that this was the biggest McDonalds he had ever been too. He talked about it a few times during the week and how he wanted to go there again.

So handsome.

Kanzashi Flowers

I have been obsessed with making these bows. I love them and they are so easy. I have just been using all my scrap fabric to make them. I had a fabric exchange with a few of my friends too. I gave them a bunch of my fabric squares and they gave me theirs. I have to say that I have more than enough now. I have sold 7 bows from these two pictures already. I made about 30 last week at the cabin too. They are just so cute and easy.

My finished bows.

A few un-finished bows. I did finish them and sold 4 of those so far.

New summer outfits

So handsome in lilac.

I bought them a little big so that they will last a little bit longer. I think they are just perfect.

Tyler's favorite color is blue. I was excited about his vest.

I ordered theses outfits when the Children's Place was having their $5 dollar sale. I had a coupon for 25% off too. They came out to be pretty cheap. I always like to buy them sweater vests a couple times a year. These ones are so cute. I love them.

Madison's Baptism Day

Saturday was Madison's birthday and her baptism. We were able to go to Ontario for the day for the special occasion. It was a super fast trip, but we had a lot of fun.

Tyler is looking handsome as ever. I love his smile.

Cute little Jason. He bumped his head in the chapel after he fell off the bench. We had to take both the boys out because Tyler first hit his teeth on the wood and started bleeding, then Jason fell off the bench. Wow.

Cute guys.

I thought this was hilarious. Madison is so funny. I love this picture.

Another family shot.

Madi and Papa.

Grandma and Madison.

I made Ben this frog hat. He is so cute.
