Busy Busy Busy

I thought I would just share some random pictures of what we have been up to since I last posted. Summer sure has been Busy! (I've included some pictures of my nephews, since lots of you know them.) The past two weekends we have been helping my parents tear down the tree house, and put up a new play set! It was a fun family project, and the kids are loving the new toy!
While the men were busy working, us girls had to keep the 5 boys entertained! (Mason) We tried out the new bubble gun I got on clearance, I highly recommend them! (Logan)
Boston practicing his walking...
We also went to the park! (Peyton, Logan, Jordan, and Mason)
I sure love all of my nephews! (Logan, Mason, and Jordan)
Another event was going to our nephew Caydon's birthday party! Boston enjoyed saying "hi" at least 50 times on his cool new phone with cake all over his face! Jeremy enjoyed playing a little softball with his family
and Boston loved riding around on Tow Mater!

We had an awesome Pioneer Day enjoying a parade,amazing fireworks, and family, to bad I forgot the camera! Boston continues to make me laugh, like today when he came crawling in the kitchen with the blanket on his head with a big smile on his face.

We have been really spoiled to spend so much time with our families. It has been a very fun and busy two weeks!

My Big Boy Boston!

I can't believe how big Boston is getting and how much he is talking. His vocabulary includes Ball, That, Book, Thanks, Mama, Dada, Car, Hi... and more!Boston LOVES music. His new thing is to "lead' the music. It doesn't matter if it is on a commercial, in church, or on a toy... he is always caught leading the music!

My favorite thing is that he is already picking up tunes. He is pretty good at singing Old McDonald! Oh how I love being a Mom and watching this little boy learn and grow!

Joseph Smith Movie

Last night I went with my church Young Women group to see the Joseph Smith movie that is currently playing in the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. All of us were in tears, it is a very powerful, and emotional movie. Joseph Smith sacrificed a lot to bring the true Church Of Jesus Christ back to the earth. I am so grateful he did. If you haven't seen it, it would be well worth your time to go check it out. We were also able to enjoy walking around temple square! I sure miss working downtown!
After the movie, we went down to gateway to eat dinner and watch the fountains... or play in the fountains!

I love being a Young Women leader!

Happy Independence Day!!

Our holiday started off at 6:30am when we went to see the balloons take off over Provo. My favorites were the smokey the bear, a pig, and a strawberry balloon.
Then we went to the CRAZY packed parade in Provo!
We then played and played at the park with our friends the Bruces, and then enjoyed lighting some fireworks as well! It was yet another super fun day!
I am so grateful to live in America where I can have the freedoms we enjoy here!

More Visitors!

We have been so lucky to have some visitors this month! This past weekend we had the chance to have the worlds best Boston watchers come stay with us! They are my cousins, and I loved having them around! They enjoyed the usual at our house.. the tramp, and the zipline!!
On Sunday we went for a walk around Mount. Timpanogos temple! They asked some good questions while we were there! It made me realize that I need to learn a few more things about the gospel before Boston gets any older!!
Happy 4th of July!!

Baby Shower!!

My friend Kaylin is having a baby boy and we had such a blast making everyone sniff diapers to try to guess what candy bar was smashed inside of it! GREAT game!

If you are looking for a shower idea... we did a Book shower. She pretty much had the necessities for her baby so we decided to center our shower around books, and have everyone bring a book to start her little guys library! I felt like it worked really well! If you want more info let me know.

While I was gone to girls camp...

Boston had the time of his life hanging out with his grandma and cousins Logan and Mason while I was gone to girls camp. He enjoyed companionship in the back seat, a sweat treat, a picnic and a pool party! What a lucky guy!

While Boston was busy playing, Jeremy worked 62 hours in 4 days. Good thing he only does that while I'm gone!
