Jami's sister had a baby, so while she was helping her we got to keep the kids for a couple of days!! My kids were in heaven having the cousins sleep over. Navi is such a good baby and Crew is a good kid. Tanner had fun playing with a boy doing boy things, since Brylee always talks him into playing babies or whatever she wants. We had a fun sleep over, also swimming in their Grandparents pool the next day. I think Tanner and Crew went off the diving board 100 times and before we left Brylee was finally dared to floated with the tube all on her own.

First hand choppin' the Wood
Walk at the beach

Snow at the Top of Monte Cristo
Love the Kayaks

I took the kids for a night to Bear Lake a couple of weeks ago when the Weston's and Mangum's were already up camping. We left Fri morning and spent from about noon on Friday until about 230 Sat by the beach during the day and campfire at night after our dinner at Bear Lake Pizza. The water was freezing, but the kids didn't seem to care. It was a quick trip, but a fun trip. We drove up Monte Cristo and the snow on the side of the road was still above the vehicles. We drove home Logan way and stopped by to see Grandma Great for the last time at her home in Logan. We won't have to go far to visit her anymore since she just moved this last weekend in with Mom and Dad in Sunset. We had a good time doing the following: playing at the beach, collecting rocks, Tanner chopped some wood, sleeping in the tent, eating our favorite pizza and chocolate covered raspberries, and just chillin' out!!

Fathers Day

I forgot these pictures were on my other camera, so I am now posting the cute Fathers Day pictures of my hubby and kiddos.

One of the Perks

One of the perks of not working is we can take Daddy lunch because we have more time to go to the park and do fun things together. We took him lunch about a week ago, he had to rush back to work because he doesn't have too long, but it was worth it and the kids thought it was so cool getting to sit in his truck just before we left. He gave them each a rubber band and you would have thought he gave them a piece of gold!! The joys of the simple things!!

Great Work Friends

OK I must say I have been missing my IM/Chatting with my friends at work. I don't miss the work, but I do miss the friendships I made with the people. I was on an awesome team when I ended my job with the State, but I am sure they are doing just great without me, but I do miss them. I Started with the State in SLC with the Department of Human Services (DHS), but when I got married and then found out soon after I was prego, I knew I needed to find a job closer to home, so that is when I got the job at the Roy Department of Workforce Services (DWS). Things were completely different on the way things are ran now from when I first started with DWS, and it was a lot easier to become closer to people, it was a lot harder the last few years to even get to know those you worked with. We do lunch on occasion with the original Roy people and this was just before I quit we went up to Nancy's neck of the woods to Taggerts for lunch. Lets get together again soon friends I miss you, and next time a few more that were not able to come will hopefully be able to make it!!

Old Office Gone, New School Room

I have less time then I thought I would as the days go by so fast, but I try to get things done little by little between all the playing. This is my latest project and the kids are so excited. I painted the lockers we bought and the kids will each get one for their stuff for when we play school. I will be doing preschool next year with just Brylee and me. I can't send her off to preschool when I will have only one year with her all to myself. She is a little smarty pants so I will just need to make sure she continues to know what she needs to be ready for kindergarten the next school year. Wish me luck and I will take any fun school/teaching ideas anyone may have!!
