The funny things Mayley says,


Last night while attempting to give the lesson for family night Mayley blurts out "oops my bum is sticking out!" She had her panties on backwards. You can only imagine that her panties are bulging in the front and tiny in the back by her bum. We got a good laugh out of it. It was one of the funnier things she has said latley. Then while we were scooping icecream to have for family night treat say says.. "I want a big chunk of icecream" It's very suprising the words or phrases she comes up with everyday. We sure get a kick out of her.

Mayley's Help with the Preview of Hunter's Costume

This is just awesome!! Sorry its sideways. Mayley wanted to wear Hunter's Halloween Costume. It almost fits her and its size 12 month. I love my kids!

Our new Niece and Cousin


I stole these pics from my sisters blog. I am happy that my sister got to have another baby. This is her 4th. Her baby came 2 1/2 weeks early and she was super healthy!! They named her Avery Gale Doll. Gale is my mom's middle name. It's the first time my sister has had a baby with dark hair. She is a cute little baby girl that's for sure. I'm happy for you Britt. Wish I could come to California and see her!!

Lagoon...it's what fun is!!

We got to go to Lagoon this past saturday!! It was an all out fun day for the kids. The most exciting ride me and bry got to do is Puff the Magic Dragon. We went Swimming later in the day and the water was freezing but it was still relaxing to go in the lazy river and float around with the kids. The first ride was a little frightening for Mayley because we couldn't go on it with her. She was a little sad but after that we kept going on more and she loved it more and more. I am kind of get emotional when I see my kids having so much fun. sounds kind of silly but I cry when I see that my kids are healthy and able to do fun and exciting things. Its quite hard to get pictures when they are going in circles so fast but we went on almost all of the kiddie rides possible.


Waiting outside for dad to bring us the tickets.Hunters first merry-go-round ride. Yeah I'm sitting on the horse next to him that was like 5 feet taller and I couldn't get off the thing and hold him because we were going around so fast so I had to hold onto him for dear life and made sure he stayed on. Those horses are slippery.

After we went swimming he wanted to be like mom and wear my sunglasses. What a stud!

Their first ride!! There wasn't a line so we stuck them on this one. Yeah they wouldn't look at me but yeah they were kinda sad. Hunter had no expression whatsoever on his face. It was pretty funny.
They loved dinging the bell on the boats. Too bad the line was forever to take the kids on this one or else we could've gone again and again.
Mayley was so smart she knew exactly what to do to make her helicopter go high. She held onto the bar and pulled it towards her and they went super high!
Me and Mayley flying past. Good timing Bry!

Look at Hunter's face in this pic with Bry!! He wasn't so excited about Puff. It was a little too much for the little man.

A fun place I found

I was super excited when I had a lady in my ward tell me about a learning Center in Tooele that I can take my kids to. Its like a little preschool for Mayley for free!! I have looking for something fun for my kids to do for awhile now. Tooele just doesn't have much to do out here and after doing the same things like going to the park, going to McDonalds or doing play groups gets redunant but I'm grateful I do have those things to do than nothing. The learning center is for kids 0-5. I can even take Hunter and stay there with her. Tomorrow we are going to go and learn the letter "O" and bring a show-and-tell item that starts with that letter. Sounds fun!! Mayley is super smart and I think she needs something like this to get her mind moving. She is definently a social bug like her mom. It will be exciting for her to interact with other kids around her by learning. I'm so grateful I found this place and we will see how it goes!! Wahoo for learning for free!!

Bring on the Bowling

We went bowling with my fam on labor day! Jack and Jill's is the coolest bowling Alley. Thats if you know all about American Fork. The place was packed. We had to put our name on a waiting list and waited for a good 30 minutes after we showed up. The kids loved rolling the ball down the little ramp and we got to have bumpers for mayley. It was a super fun day. We made homemade peach cobbler and I burned it...darn it. The oven at my parents house decided to turn off on us and we had no idea how long it had been cooking for so we had to guess how long it had already cooked. It still tasted pretty good. It was fun to see Parker and Alice. I haven't gotten to see my fam since they got married. We got to see Parker and Ali's little abode and it was cutsie! My dad said that their huge TV keeps their place warm for them. Bry could almost hit his head on their ceiling. Parker beat all of us at bowling and got a score of 206. The highest score he has ever had. It was awesome. I love bowling. It was way fun. Mayley's bowling shoes were so dang cute on her! She wanted to take them home.
Bry loves teaching the kids how to bowl.
Hunter using his tough man skills and trying to hold the ball all by himself. What a dude!!
The love birds being CAAAARAZY!!



Mayley's size 6 bowling shoes!!


Hunter was held by everyone because he kept getting away and trying to get his fingers pinched in the bowling balls. I can never get that kid to look at me when it comes to cameras!! I love parkers big head in the way. It's like a weathering system!!!
