Party at the ZOO!

Last week, I took my practical hair test (and PASSED...whoot whoot) and my mom came to watch Dane while I took my test.  Well it just so happened that my sis in law from WA was coming to Utah with her kiddos to visit her sister in Logan.  So the kids came with my mom for a few days and then we met up at the Zoo!  The weather was perfect...a little over cast, sprinkled here and there.  

 Dane was such a good boy since we went during his nap time!  Dane loved it all...he would always point and say "Whas that?"   

 The zoo is kinda hilly and I had a hard time pushing Dane sometimes so my mom and Vy got behinds me to help push 50 pounds up the hill!  It helped a lot!

 All the kiddos!

Thanks Buff for meeting up with us!!  It was so good to hang out with you guys for the afternoon.  Can't wait for next time!!  

P.S.  Thanks for taking the pictures !! :)

4th of July

We had such a fun 4th of July!  We decided to stay home since it was in the middle of the week.  So we went with our friends the Liddles up to Park City and rode the Alpine slides!  That was so much fun.  I think I did it when I was little but I don't remember.  There were no lines and the weather was perfect!!!

Here we are riding up on the lift.  (Yes I did cut Brents face off...opps!)  I was kinda scared because Dane wouldn't sit still and I'm a pansy of heights since I've gotten older.  

 Getting ready to go down the slide!  Dane LOVED it...the lady let me and Brent go at the same time and I could hear Dane going "Ahhhh" and giggling!  We then went out to lunch and hit up the out let malls for some good sales!

 Later that evening we had a BBQ and turned on the sprinklers and Dane ran through them and loved it.  He was dry within 10 mins.

Then he was practicing his golfing skills!  We met up with the Gamblings & Liddles for the Stadium of Fire fireworks!  It was super fun...Dane did really good since he only had a 20 min nap that day but he loved the fireworks.  They would stop for a minute and he would say "Mo?" 

Summer Fun...

We have been having a fun summer!!  Lots of otter pops, swim lessons, 7 Peaks, playing with friends & helping mom with the laundry!  

 Dane has a slight obsession with the dryer!!

Memorial Weekend

Over Memorial weekend we got to go to St. George with my mom and Steve and my brother and his family from WA.  We had such a great time!!  Lots of laughing, eating, late nights, tv watching, swimming, game playing, shopping, Sonic runs, playing at the play ground!  

 Nice splits Bo!

 "Bo, look at the plane!"

 Cartoon watching on Grams bed!

 "What??"

We had so much fun and can't wait for our next vacation!!!

Get-a-way

A few weeks ago my mom and Steve went to St. George for a few days during the week and we decided we would go.  With Brent working longer hours during the summer...why not!  So we packed our bags and were on our way.  Dane LOVES St. George...he was just so happy and hyper when we got there.  He loves that he gets to sleep on a full size bed.  He does really good too...he only got up once after I put him down and knocked on the door and cried for 20 seconds and then went and crawled back into bed and fell asleep. (Guess that means its time for him to transition to a big boy bed)!  It was pretty chilled, lots of Sonic runs and playing in the sun!!

Smile

Dane is getting the SMILE phrase down (well only when he wants to)!  This picture seriously make me laugh!

I think Dane will have his mamma's baking touch.  He LOVES to help me bake cookies.  Favorite part...getting to taste the spatula!!

Mothers Day

We ended up going to Idaho for Mothers Day weekend due to Brent having to work up there.  So it worked out perfect.  We got to spend the weekend with our Mothers and celebrate that special day.  Dane also got to go for a four wheeler ride with Brent and some how found the water and went to town playing in it and making a mess!  

 Aren't they just so cute...this is my favorite picture!!  (Brent got to go and help move water when he was home!)

 Then we got to go golfing with my mom and Steve.  Haha Dane is so observant, it only took him a second to figure out how to make the golf cart go and he took off while Brent was teeing up.  Luckily I was in the cart with him still.  After that we started to take the key out if we were both going to be gone.  We went to church at my mom's ward and I went and took Dane to nursery.  The leaders were so nice, they had a cute Mothers Day gift for the kids to give to their mom's.  Dane got his picture taken with a cute sign that said Happy Mothers Day, a flower and a pretty picture that he drew!  Seriously melted my heart!  I have the cutest little monkey EVER and I wouldn't trade being a mom for a thing.  Thanks Brent & Dane for making the day so special to me!!
