End of JUNE 2012 happenings!

To close the last weeks of June off...we have enjoyed this LOVELY sunny weather! It is now officially HOT HOT HOT!!! Do we love it? YES WE DO!!!! Hope you are too!!! Here are a couple outings we did.

The boys loved the splash pad with friends!!
 
Drying off on the sidewalk! Awww
 
BEAR LAKE!! Summer is not SUMMER without the LAKE of the BEAR!

Bear Lake waters are oohhhhh soooo BLUE! We love it! Yes cold, but so worth it!

The kids love the sand and the LAKE SHELLS!

Some people feel muscular in the water! Nice Chris!

Davin shows off his NEW swim shirt! He likes the shark on the front.

Tate is just gitty!
 
Floating around on the SEA STAR!


 
Such fun and cute little boys! Gotta love em!

 Chillin' in the water, sand and lounge...just getting some UV Rays! :)

Hot beach bods...or....BIG Bellies on the BEACH!

Fun family times at the good ol LAKE!

La Beaus raspberry shakes are always a must before we head home!!
 
YUMMMMM!
 
 Sitting on the ledge.....
 
.....and hanging on the pole are pretty cool too! Oh, the life of a boy!
 


PREGO PARTY! Good ol Emily Berkley came up with a great idea (or her husband did) for a prego party! There are lots of ladies in the neighborhood that are all expecting around the same time. All baby boys but one! WOW! A couple couldn't make it, but for those that did...it was short and sweet..and very enjoyable!

We all brought little munshy brunchy things to share and eat!
 
As we visited we all gave each other a small/cheap but oh so clever gift for each other. So cute!
 
Here are a few of the items! Super cute and fun! Got us all more so excited to welcome our new bundles of joy!
 

Here are 6 of us ladies....minus the picture taker!
 

 Stripes were popular! This pic is from smallest to largest..and due dates!

Willow park ZOO with the cousins! My father in laws bother came to town from Washington and wanted to hit the ZOO with some of the kids while they were in town. We usually hit it once a year, so this was a good opportunity!


What a cute smile TATE!

What a sweet BIG brother pushing around little brother, and gathering pine cones!!

Tate and the BOBCATS!

Cousins!

Cute kids on the rock!

Worn out ladies on the bench as the kids feed the ducks! Too bad the ZOO might be closing this year. Even if it is the BIRD ZOO, it still is pretty cool for our town!

Added bonus pictures for the week:

Mosquitoes SUCK! Literally! Poor Davin again, his face was swollen up real nice from one little bite!

Tate finds some pretty interesting things to play with around the house. This day he wore a sombrero, riding a horse, and a fighting a dragon! Boys have far too much fun!

Summer time stuff!

This last week we did some RANDOM summer things! Our bucket list has been shortened...and our adventures seem to be lacking a bit due to me being prego, work schedules and such. It is ok though! We still can do some fun things for the time being and we will always have more summers. 

First thing the sister in laws got together for a PICNIC up first dam with some of the younger cousins! We all ate a yummy picnic and fed the ducks! These cousins have such a great time with each other and are all so cute! It's good too, cus the ducks were sorta scary looking! Check out this one below! We think he might be a cross between a vulture and a duck or something. FREAKY!

UGLY~ scary ~freaky ~ duck!
 
 CUTE ~ darling ~ sweet ~ kids!
 

 

 

 

 

Another fun thing the boys were able to do, was going out on our neighbors sweet new SLIP N SLIDE! They LOVED this and went again and again!
 

 
 Sprinklers under the tramp are always a great time! For sure!
 
 Aaron and I were able to help out our friend and be a volunteer for the RAGNAR RELAY! Each team needs volunteers to come and help with drink tables and what not. We drove clear on top of the paradise mountain and helped out, met some super awesome other volunteers, laughed at the costumes of runners and chilled! We had to get a sitter for it, and Aaron had to take off work for it as well....so we called it our date night., We got sub sandwiches and went out for ice cream after, it was a great time! Very interesting for sure. Glad to not be the runner!

Our volunteer T shirts!
 
 Love the saying on the bottom. MORE FUN THAN A VAN FULL OF RUNNERS? HECK YES!
 
 Our station!
 
 Sweet tame horses were right behind us. Not spooked at all with all the people around.
 
 The teams would pull off to the side and get ready for their exchange! We were exchange #5, only 33 more for the runners! CRAZY people I tell ya!
 
 Funny costumes were a sight. We saw all sorts, that is for sure. Nuts while running for 2 days without a shower and some dirt roads like these.
 
 Like REALLY crazy and funny AND sorta a LACK of a costume. Too funny!
 
 We all had quite the laugh! It's going to be a long run for this fella!
 
 Daddy brought home this sweet little number! The boys LOVED playing on it, getting rides in it and whatever else little boys do in tractors when they go to work with daddy.. THEY WERE IN HEAVEN!
 
 CUTE dudes!
 

Fathers day came around once again! Daddy got breakfast in bed, love notes, gifts and colored pictures by the boys. He slept in super late too. That is very rare for him!! He loved it all, and that is what matters.
 
 Davin got ready for church....even sporting daddy's big shoes.
 
 After making the rounds to all the dads we went to let our dog ZIP swim! Super excitement for ZIP and for the boys.
 
 What a great dog! He is old, but still a great little swimmer!!!

 
 It was a beautiful and HOT fathers day and weekend! So nice to be outside though, we will take summer all year long!
