A trip to Vernal Utah

We decided to make a trip to Vernal Utah to help Josh’s brother and his family move, it was a quick trip but so fun. The kids were all so good traveling and also while we were there. I thought Jaxon would be hard to keep entertained, I don’t know what I was thinking because he was amazing! I brought Josh’s little brother Justin with us to help with Jaxon and he just pushed Jaxon in the stroller most of the weekend and it worked out wonderful. We helped them move and we also got to go play a little so we had a good time! Our kids don’t get to see each other very often so it was fun to spend some time with them. On the way home the girls said it was the funnest vacation ever!!!

 

Moving

Uncle Josh and Seth

We brought the girls their razor scooters so they would have something to do and I am so glad we did. There was a sidewalk that kind of had a hill on it and the kids rolled down that sidewalk for hours, they loved it!

This is Seth, he is so funny and everything that came out of his mouth I laughed at!! I loved this little boy and I could have brought him home with me in a heart beat.

This is Luke, he is so smart and so polite. He was teaching me all about reptiles and dinosaurs while we were there. The girls made friends with Luke very quick. (Maddy is in the background waiting to go down the hill, so much fun)

Uncle Justin pushing Jaxon, I was so thankful to have Justin to help me.

We stayed in this beautiful retro looking Hotel!

Swimming at the hotel, always a favorite for the kids!!

The famous dinosaur Museum was so fun, the kids were amazed by the huge dinosaurs!!

We went on a little drive to go fishing . Jeremy told us beforehand that the kids would catch lots of fish because they do every time they go, well I didn’t realize how many were a lot. The kids were catching them over and over, they loved it! Kynzee counted her fish and she caught nine!!!

 

Thanks Jeremy and Becky we had so much fun!!

Home firework show

I never buy any fireworks, but this year I had a little girl come to my door selling fireworks for gymnastics, so of course I bought some. Josh loved lighting them and the kids really enjoyed watching them, it was a fun night!!

My little man

I don’t know if I have ever wrote this before but if so I am going to do it again. I never wanted a boy, never ever!! Every time I got pregnant I wanted a girl and I hoped and prayed it would be another girl. So when I found out this little man was coming into my life I really had to prepare myself. I didn’t know what to think about having a son or raising a son or how to be a mother to a son. Well I can honestly say that the Lord knew I needed this little man in my life and he sent him to me because he knew I would love him so much. I could honestly have ten little boys like him, he is just wonderful! He makes me smile and laugh everyday. He is so cuddly and he loves me so much. I am so thankful that the Lord looked past my attitude towards boys and he had something better in mind for me. I will be forever thankful to be the Mother of this little boy.

My little fireman

I was in the bedroom folding laundry the other day and Maddy was yelling at me to come to the Family room. So I went there and this is what I saw…… Jaxon had his fire hat on and was sitting on his fire truck making fire truck noises, I had to grab the camera.  I love this boy so much, he is a character and makes me laugh every day.

Summer Days!!

My kids love to get the pool out and swim in the yard!! The first thing they usually ask in the morning is “How hot is it outside Mom?” I told them at the beginning of the summer that it has to be 80 degrees to swim because that’s what I remember my Mom telling me when I was little. So if we don’t have anywhere to be that day and it is hot enough we get the pool out and the kids and all the neighbor kids have a blast playing in the water. I love summer days!!!
