A very long post!

I left Elko about 3 weeks ago, just me and the kids, and spent a week in Tooele. I got there on a friday night and we went to a football game with my mom and little brother. My nephew plays for Tooele High and my mom trys to support him as much as possible. Loren put on my little brothers football uniform on and wouldn't take it off so she went to the game with it on!

Logan and his dad came late sunday night and we left early sunday morning and headed to Eastern Colorado! From Tooele it is about a 13 hour trip and thats barely stopping. We stopped in Rawlins, WY to have lunch and than went to Laramie, WY and went and seen where Logan went to college. We made it to Ft. Collins, CO and got their licenses to dove hunt and stopped to eat at an AWESOME pizza place called BOJO'S, and finally our destination, Cope, CO!!! We left Tooele at 7:30 am and got to Cope by 10:30 pm so all in all we made good time. Logans grandma lives in Cope and they have a little get together every dove hunting season. His dads uncle Jerry and his girlfriend Linda was there and Jerry's 2 boys Mike and Daryl was there, as well as Aunt Betty. h

My little man....

So Jaxon seems to be doing things super fast!! He started crawling pretty early and sitting and now just the other day he pulled himself up to the couch and stood there for a good 5-10 minutes!! I must remind you that this little guy is only 7 months old. I have a very good feeling that he will be walking before he is 1. I wonder if he is doing all of this so soon so that he can bug his sister, LOL.

Camping

Last weekend we got together with a bunch of friends from Elko and Salt Lake and went camping and boating. We had a really good time and so did the kids. We got there really late friday night and sat up camp and than we just kind of hung saturday morning waiting for everybody to show up. After we had lunch we took the kids to the lake and let them play in the water and take turns going on the boat. We dutched oven for our first time ever ( I love dutch oven but have never actually cooked it) and overall it turned out pretty good. Later that night when all the kids were asleep and we were getting ready to roast marshmallows I went in our tent to lay Jaxon down and all of a sudden the wind kicked up really really bad and all the walls on the tent were blown in. Logan didn't have the stakes for our tent and I felt the tent start moving, it was kind of scary. I didn't know what to do except lay next to my kids and hold on for a possible ride. The wind finally calmed down for a minute and I got the kids put in the truck and we packed up camp cause there was lightening all around us and the wind kicked up really bad again. After everything we had a really good time!!

Just some random things

Between the holiday and all the weddings we have this month, we have been busy! Our business is really taking off and we love every moment of it! I've been loving my new little camera and have been taking tonz of random pictures of the kids so I thought why I finally had a minute I would share them with everyone!! Hope everything is going well for everybody.

4th of July!!!!

We had a pretty good 4th of July this year the only down part is that Logan had to work but he was home in time for the fireworks! We just stayed in Spring Creek for the parade, instead of fighting everybody in town. My cousin Jen, her husband Dustin and 2 boys, Devon and Korbin was out visiting, so they hung out with us for a little while which was a lot of fun. Loren was on one of her "off" days and threw too many fits to count! Lets just say that by the end of the day, I called my mom and apologized for anything I ever did to her or any pain I had caused her because I am definately getting my payback, LOL. The fireworks were pretty good and both Loren and Jaxon loved them

7 Months

Jaxon is 7 months old today and all over the place!! He started army crawling all over the place just before he was 6 months old and while we were in Utah he pulled himself up to a laundry basket! Well a couple days ago, he crawled over to our fireplace and got up on to the mantel!! I was kind of shocked but not to suprised, LOL. I have a feeling if he can get his balance better than he will be walking before he is 1!

A Very Long Post

On the 17th of June Logan and I celecrated our 3rd wedding anniversary! I can't believe its been 3 years. So much has happened and changed our lives. We have 2 beautiful children and a house and a dog and cat and so many other things! Logan had to work the day of our anniversary so I suprised him when he got home, the kids were at the in-laws with Aunt Jilyn, I made salmon, steaks, baked potatos, salad, and crossiants! Yes, it was a very big dinner, especially to eat at 8:30 at night, LOL, we also had strawberry cheesecake for dessert.

On the 19th we headed for Utah! We wanted to do something fun for our anniversary and our birthdays (mine is the 7th and Logans is the 19th). My mom was going to watch the kids but she hasn't been feeling very good so we decided to do something as a family and we included my little brother Nate. We ended up taking the kids to Jungle Jim's Playland (we met our friends Matt and Andrya and their kids) and than we went to the Myan for lunch/dinner! It was a very long day but we had lots and lots of fun! My little brother Nate loved the bumper cars and Loren loved just about everything even though the first time she rode anything she held on for dear life, LOL. Logan won over 1,000 tickets, so needless to say, we came home with a lot of JUNK!!!!!

After such a long day in Salt Lake we were suppose to go to the Demolition Derby with our friends Hope and Tom and also my cousins Kim and J.P. but it had rained all day that they cancelled the derby and rescheduled it for the next week, we were way disappointed! Since it got cancelled we went up to Kim and JPs house and hung out with a bunch of JPs family and ate pizza and played games, it was a lot of fun. The next day was Fathers Day and the guys were suppose to go golfing but they called and cancelled that because of the stupid rain, so we just hung out and my mom made a delicious bbq ribs dinner. My mom is a very good cook and I crave her ribs quite often. The guys ended up going golfing on Monday and than on Tuesday we decided to take Loren and Jaxon to the Living Planet Aquarium in Sandy. She loves looking at fish and she really enjoyed the Aquarium. We seen sharks, Octupus, a blue frog and she even touched a sting ray. After the aquariun we went and ate at Sizzler and than went to the mall (we went to Fashion Place, South Town, and Valley Fair, I was really tired!). We ended up buying me a Cricut, and I am so excited!!!!!! We are going to use it for our business more than anything and I can't wait to start doing things with it! Anyways that was our big week in Utah, it was a lot of fun, but I am glad to be home.
