Camping Labor Day Weekend

Labor Day Weekend we week just up provo canyon to Deer Creek. It wasn't the warmest weekend so we didn't end up getting in the water at all but we still had fun with the camp fire and enjoying being with family.

If only he would stay in the chair but he would always get down and walk all over the place.

Since he was always walking everywhere and falling all over the place I put him in the stroller a lot and walked around.

Back to School

My first day of school.

I decided to go back to school to get my nursing degree. After researching all the schools in the area and their RN program I finally decided. I went back and forth for a while but finally decided to attend Provo College. I am taking Chemistry and Math 1010 this semster. The classes are at Provo College but are broadcasted from Utah State. Next semester I will be taking Anatomy and Math 1050 and then will be applying to the nursing program for next fall.

I am so excited!

Ty's 1st Birthday

For Ty's birthday we went to Joe's parents house for a pool party
Ty loves the pool and had a ton of fun

He had fun figuring out how to open his presents

But Kylee had to help a little and she loved that

He got blocks, balls, rollie toy and some clothes

He wanted to play with everything after he opened it and didn't want to move to the next present

He wasn't sure about the candle and just wanted to grab it

But he LOVED it!

It was a great birthday and we all have a lot of fun!

California part 2 of 2-- Pinecrest

The Pinecrest Cabin

This is the cabin
This is the view from the deck

Saturday night we made tin foil dinners so we had to make a fire. Well I went out to start it and then here comes my dad and before I knew it the fire got up to at least 6 feet tall. The family calls it a White Man fire. I have to admit it was pretty cool and it even got people to stop and look.

My dad, Ty and me sitting by the fire.

Ty and Kylee by the fire.

Ty and Kylee at the beach.

Kylee playing in the lake. It was 55 degrees!!! And I have to add that Aaron said if she puts her head in the water he would give her a redvine. haha I told him there and no way she will do it. But sure enough he walked down to the beach and she walked in and dipped her hair in the water. Wow I think I need Aaron around more ofter to get Kylee to do things for me.

Playing in the sand. The rock off to the left in the picture is the rock I played on when I was little. I love Pinecrest Lake and how pretty it is.!

Kylee and Abby. Cami and family came up for the day to visit with us. It was so great to see them and Kylee loved playing with Abby. She still talks about it. They play so good together I miss having them around too.

One morning my dad went fishing and sure enough caught a few fish. This is the favorite place to take your picture after caughting a fish. Every year when some one caught a fish you would get your picture taken here. My dad cooked them up and they were tasty.

Ty playing in the cabin. The car in his hand was his favorite toy while at the cabin. He even slept with it in hand and he would still have it in hand when he woke up. Silly boy.

Kylee on the wonderful 80's couch. Can't ever forget about the couch and we can't ever replace it.

Ty got half way up the stairs until I caught him. Woops forgot to put up the gate.

California part 1 of 2-- Ocean

After being at the cabin for 5 days I went back to my parents house to have fun with friends. So Thursday Shandi and I decided it would be fun to take the kids to the ocean.

They all had so much fun playing in the sand. Even Kylee played in the sand my little girl who hates to get dirty.
This was our trek to the water. We went to Santa Cruz and how to get everything down and only wanted to do it in one trip. So Everyone had something to carry. I pushed the stroller with Ty in it as well as chairs, umbellas, beach mates, towels, and some toys. It was hard but we made it there and back ok.

Ty loved playing in the sand. He also loved eating it.

Kylee enjoyed soaking up the sun just like her mom.

Back at parents house Ty loved to climb in any place he could find.

This was another one of his favorite places. He would climb in and the try and sit and fall off because it wasn't that big. He still loved it.

Feeding Ducks

We went to the park the other day to feed the ducks. It was fun but weren't too many ducks so we played in the park for a little while.
Ty had a blast ont he swing!

He enjoyed eating the bread we were feeding to the ducks.

This was the pond we went to. It was fun but would have been nicer if the ducks were more interested. They didn't care that we can bread for them.

The Kids

Rachel took some great pictures of the kids at Gardener Village In Salt Lake.

Ty was so great and smiled for all his pictures and looked so cute.

We took so many of Kylee she was being so a drama queen. But TRachel was able to get some good ones of her too.

Camping to Burraston Ponds

About a month ago we went camping to Burraston Ponds. It was alot of fun to get out and going camping again. We should be going camping a lot this year. I really enjoyed this place too. I am learning how to like Utah and all the cool places to go.

Kylee and Joe went fishing. This place had about 3 ponds to fish in.

Kylee loved that she was going to go fishing with daddy. she loves to help carry things.

Kylee loves that dady helped her fish for a little bit

Kylee doesn't enjoy being in the stroller much anymore and always wants to walk so she wasn't very heppy being in the stroller

Kylee had a ton of fun playing with nathan. She got a wagon and sand toys that she loves to pull around and play with.

Sitting at the camp fire getting ready to cook tip foil dinners. Everytime we go camping we have to have tip foil dinner because they are just so great when camping.
