June 2016

We got to CAMP in June! We went to Tyler's family reunion in Idaho Falls! It was a short trip with a wonderful opportunity to see how the kids would do and if we had all the stuff we would need for a bigger camping trip in July! Needless to say, it was a blast! My kids really enjoyed it!

Soooo happy to be soooo dirty! 

 

 

Papaw's chair is the best place for a nap!

 

On the way home we stopped to see my dad! Grayson and Nolan had a lot of fun with Bentley! We turned to see them helping each other get drinks! Adorable!

 

Then, Tyler and I had the opportunity to celebrate our 5 year anniversary! My wonderful mother came to our place and stayed with the boys for the weekend! We spent the weekend in Salt Lake; eating, shopping and missing the boys! Grayson loved having Gramma stayed and begged for her to come back any time I told him no for something or other.
We stayed at a fun little castle bed and breakfast! And had Cheesecake Factory! Yummmm.

 

We went to IKEA and got drawers to match our bed! Night stands are next! Nolan helped Tyler build them as usual.

 

I'm telling you Grayson loves Sambo! He's a cutie and Grayson always gives him a hug when he sees him. Anyone have an idea on how to dig dog food and rocks out of a drain? Me neither. It's a work in progress. They usually do it when I'm not looking. Who'd a thunk?

 

Blues favorite spot! Nolan loves sunglasses and someone was really hungry. Again, I'm  not sure who....

 

June warmed up enough that we could go swimming! Both Grayson and Nolan like the idea of water, but don't really swim. Nolan barely moves and likes to have him animals swim. Grayson likes people to take him on the slide. And jumping in the really shallow parts!

 

 

Grayson loves popcorn while at Finding Dory. The boys can never seem to sleep at the right time when we have church that starts at 1pm. They were very unhappy and fell asleep right before we needed to leave. That's probably why Grayson sleeps in Primary. When Nolan gets quiet, it means he is probably sleeping. In a random place. With no clothes on.

 

Grayson was having a fun tickle fight with Gramma.

I decided the boys  needed new pictures! Just in time for birthdays! I can get good pictures of them by myself, but family ones? No can do. My favorite photographer is currently in Mexico, on a mission or something.. so no family pictures yet! Soon, but not yet! Anyways, LOOK AT THESE CUTIES! They have my whole heart! 

 

Next up, BIRTHDAYS! 

Until next time... 

May 2016

May, brought many, many things! First of all it was warm and we really got to play outside! We had fun with bubbles one day! Grayson and Nolan were big helpers cleaning all the sheep wool up! Grayson LOVES Sammy! He always says, "Sammy, so cute!"

 

Kisses for Sammy! Nolan and Mia like to walk the puppy!

 

Nolan really likes to help Tyler build things! Also Tommy went through my garage sale clothes and found a fetching purple shirt!

  

The boys have been really good friends! I love some of the pictures I got of them in May!

 

They couldn't stop talking about the "rainbow"

The first picture is Nolan in the same suit as Grayson a few years ago! I think they are brothers!

 

May also brought the beginning of baseball! There was VERY MUCH, MUCHO GRANDE baseball in June and July! Tyler really enjoyed showing the boys how to run the bases!

This is how Grayson spends most of Primary.

We spent our Swamily activity in Salt Lake City, at Temple Square! The boys were WORE OUT after the festivities.

 




This is a true representation of Nolan's personality!

May also brought the end of the school year! Grayson's school had a bunch of fun activities that we as a family could attend! One day they had a HUGE trailer filled with sand of the kids to play with! It was really cool! Next, the FFA brought a TON of baby farm animals! Lastly, it was train day!

Grayson kept saying, "Look, Mom! A duck!"

 

Nolan loved the puppy until it chased him to play!

 

These boys love horses like their momma!


The favorite by far was the 5 day old calf! Both boys kept showing me the sleeping baby cow!

 

Some family in Corrine turned a truck and trailers into a train! Every year they take it to the school and take the students for a ride! We LOVED the train ride! My boys are obsessed with animals, trains and dinosaurs, so May was an awesome month for them!

 






Then came the last day of school! First day and last day comparison pictures! Crazy what a difference there is!

 

We are really looking forward to a summer of swimming, camping and fun!
Until next time...
