Oh what do we do in the summer time?

Apparently not blog.  Life has been busy, but fun. Summer is flying by way too fast.
Here are some things we have been up to:


  • Catching big fish with Staci and Tom




  • Putting up tents with Auntie Ree


  • Being silly



  • Mama has been silly also. I accidentally jumped on a blender blade (dropped it on one foot while washing it, then jumped up in horror and landed on the blade with the other foot). I got lots of stitches! But it is now finally healed. I had to forfeit the Utah Valley half marathon, but there is always another race.  




  • Harper is such a fun, sweet and cute girl. She is just a little angel. She sleeps well all night, naps when I put her down. I am now at the point where I can stick her in her crib awake and she falls asleep. Hallelujah. 11 months old!! Can you believe it? She is also a superb eater. Thank goodness she has 8 teeth with molars on the way!





  • Jasper is just too cool. He is going into 8th grade in about a month, I can hardly believe it.  He has lots of friends, and they are over at our house all the time, eating us out of house and home. But we love it. He can never have enough time to spend with his friends. Unfortunately for him, I have to give him chores and summer homework anyway, and it completely puts a damper in his style, but what else are moms for, right?


  • One of his basketball teams (yes there have been a few) won a tournament. Yeah champs!




  • He is a very good big brother to both Harper and Jackson.  With Harper we call him "Biggest Brother" and you should see the way she completely lights up whenever he enters a room. She gets a huge grin and just squeals!



  • He can even make being on a horse with a baby look cool. :)



  • Staci is engaged! To Mr. Tom Kotter. They will have their wedding on September 6th of this year. We are very happy for her. Tom seems wonderful and he certainly makes her happy. So yeah Staci!



  • Dave has been busy with work, and trying to do fun stuff with the kids. 



  • Like sleeping. :)


  • Oh, and lucky us, one day a couple of weeks ago, David went out to go to work in the morning and found the car like this. Someone had thrown a brick into the back window of our car. If you look closely you can see the brick used, between the front seats.  Not nice.




  • That's all for now. Harper says "Hi" she's real good at that.

The sleeping picture of David and Harper is my favorite. Hilarious that she fell asleep like that!
