Fair Time!!

We look forward to the fair week each year. It is our last hurrah before school starts back up for Courtney and our schedules change once again. Since the kids are older they really get a kick out of the rodeo, rides, and parades. They both are so country that they love the animal barns and just getting dirty. What kid doesn't? It was fun hanging out with the family and just enjoying life.

Camping!

Our summer camping trip with the Smith family was so much fun. Even though this was the end of July it is still worth posting. We had such a blast and the weather was perfect. Check out the pictures, they tell a story!!

Just being creative!

I thought I might share what I have been doing on my spare time. I just finished a new kitchen table. I needed a more rectangular table than round and found this at DI for $20. Then my mom found some chairs at a garage sale for $25. So with some paint and a little effort from me and my sisters we came up with this table and I just love it. Thanks to my sister-in-law Kerie for the creative decorating ideas. I just want to do more, but have to restrain. So what do you all think? These are some of my new bags that I have made. Which one is your favorite?

4th of July Celebrations

We had a great time in Lewiston, Ut for the fourth of July. Thanks to Sara and Ryan we had a blast. The parade was great. The kids loved the candy. It was fun just chilling with the family.

Summer Fun!!

Our little kids sure keep us busy. They are loving the fun summer activities. As you can see they are always on the move. We are so blessed as a family and hope everyone is having a great summer!!

Summer, So much fun!!

Courtney is enjoying his affiliation in Blackfoot. We only wish that he was getting paid. Anyways we have been loving the warm weather. Sydnee and Chase are loving playing outside and at the park. We have had some great times. On Memorial weekend we spent time in Grace. The kids loved the horses and playing with their cousins. We hope everyone is having a great summer.

Sydnee's Birthday Party!

Our little Sydnee is now three. She loves to tease and thinks it is great fun to tease her parents and brother. She was so excited for her birthday. We had a swimming party with her cousins. She had so much fun.
The morning of her birthday I asked her what kind of cake she wanted. She informed me she wanted a pink monster cake. I thought maybe a princess or something of that sort, but a monster cake. She is always coming up with something out of the ordinary. Here are some fun pictures of her special day.
