So I have not been a blogger this summer...because I just didn't want to! We have been busy livin' instead of bloggin' which is a good thing, if you ask me :) So here is a little recap of some of our summer highlights...and lowlights.
I turned the big 28! Don't I look excited about it :)
actually if you want to know the truth Rob snapped this picture of me while we were waiting to take family pictures, so that crazed look you see is me about to go ape! Two little boys hair done in clean cute outfits, trying to stay clean while waiting for the photographer at a park...with dirt and grass and rocks, and water, and me sweating, and threatening terrible things, and cleaning off muddy hands and shoes...anyway, this was just after I decided that it would be a better idea to wait inside the car...with them strapped... in their car seats...with the AC on full blast (which is why my hair is frizzed.) Just in case you were wondering.
Rob celebrated the big 31! And that hideous cake is his favorite HUGE chocolate cake...made with love...by Costco.
We celebrated 8 years of marital bliss together.
But our real celebration is when we go on our cruise in October to the Bahamas! ALONE!!! that is unless I freak out and cancel it because I am certain I can't leave my babies.
The boys climbing trees...see that cutie patootie on the right? Well he should have come to earth sheathed in bubble wrap. Seriously. Injured his hip (while I was away at girls camp!) and couldn't walk for 2 weeks. (don't ever slide down a slide with your kids--my husband learned the hard way.) Cut his EYEBALL... on a book...WHAT??!! Fell and ripped his entire pinky nail off completely down past the cuticle!!Not to mention all the bonks and band aids in between. I am telling you every second of every day is a perilous journey for that little tank of a boy!
I ran a 1/2 marathon with my sis-in-law and LIVED!! Here we are in all our sweaty glory after the race!
Don't judge the looks, this is at the finish line...
My cute Gavin at Alpine days Rodeo doing the mutten bust. Really I have never laughed so hard in my life! I know it looks like child abuse or something but he really wanted to do it! and he won a cowboy boot cup full of gumballs! thats worth a little dirt in the face right??
The boys are getting to better friends, and better enemies :)
but I loves em anyway!
Headed down south and visited family in Vegas and St. George. Had to get a picture of the random HUGE chair in good old Beaver on the way down.
Enjoyed our weed patch, I mean garden :) Although it looks terrible, and every year I envision a Martha Stewart-esk garden of weed free, beauty and bounty. It always looks like crap, who has time to weed like mad man! Never judge a book by its cover- We get some fabulous produce from that little garden. And corn that could beat Harward Farms any day... hehe.
