July Happenings

Too much technology!  The kids have loved all the free time and with that, time on technology.  It has been difficult for me to figure out how to allow it but not too much.  

On a Sunday stroll we found this chair tree!

New skirt and doll for Avenleys birthday.

Playing with new toys.

Out to eat and ice cream while dad was away.  

Music time at church, Avey got to be a pioneer.

Sick!  Avey and I both were sick with the stomach flu for a few days.  Thankful that we could be together and take care of each other.  

My limitless group.

"Mom, I want to help you cook with my new apron!"

Cherry Hill

We didn't get very many pictures here because we we're too busy having too much fun.

Logan

A few weeks ago, we were blessed to go to Logan to the reception of Emily Peterson.  She was one of my laurels when we lived in Logan and she just got married!!  It was so wonderful to see her and especially to drive by our two homes, visit with old friends and share memories with our children about our life there.

This was the first "home" we lived in in Logan.  It is the home we brought Molly home to when she was born.  Lots of amazing memories there!

Fairy Graden just got a campground

Happy Birthday Avenley!

We celebrated Aveys birthday a day early so that both grandparents could make it.  First we had a fun friend party.  Avey wanted to have a mermaid party so Nick made some face cutouts for pictures, I made the cake and cupcakes.  Avery is blessed to have so many friends and should would have invited everyone, but we ended up with about 9 little girls playing in the pool and slip-n-slide.  Then that night we had grandparents, Sidwell cousins, the Bodilys and the Princes for cake and presents.  Avenley was so happy and had such a fun day!

Bowling

For Crystals birthday we were all able to meet up for some bowling.  We all had a great time, but Avey especially love it!

Cabin with the Moons, Micks, Sids and Bods

It has been over 10 years since we were all together...camping.  The moons got it all arranged and gave us all plenty of time to get it on the calendar!  We have been friends for 13 years and it was so fun to watch all of our children make connections with each other.  We stayed at the Moon cabin for one night.  Kids played amazingly well.  We went on walks, ate yummy food, chatted and laughed SO hard!  Such a great memory!
