Father's Day Fun

We went to the Call's house for Father's Day! Everyone contributed for a yummy dinner! We had steak, twice baked potatoes, corn on the cob, rolls, & pineapple sherbet dessert with rasberries and bananas in it! We went and played in the backyard later on. Lynda has always wanted a firepit in her backyard and she finally got one!! So we roasted marshmallows and Mayley and Bry had fun riding bikes and climbing on the cars! We missed Lynda and Hayley. I'm sure they are having lots of fun in Hawaii though!



Grandma and Grandpa Mc"Donald"

My Grandparents were here visiting for a couple days. We don't get to see them very often because they live in Wyoming. They love to spoil Mayley and Hunter. We got to go down and have dinner with them the other night. Mayley loved reading books with Grandma and Loves to give Grandpa Hugs. We are pretty lucky to have them here with us! We love them a lot!


Potty is the best way to Party!

Mayley is our little superstar! Bryan being the wonderful dad that he is got her potty trained pretty fast!! We are super excited to have her panties and going in the potty. We can even go out around the town and she will tell me when she needs to go. We got her an ElMO potty that she loves to sit on and go! That always helps! Bryan was super consistent with her! She loves to wear her mermaid and Dora panties all the time!! This is a huge thing for us since diapers was a big expense at our house with 2 little ones!! What an awesome blessing to have a good girl that loves to go! :)

Grandma "Donald" bought her some Dora Panties and she couldn't wait to put them on the minute that they were given to her!

There is always a first for everything!


There is a cute girl in my ward that is having a baby soon. so me and my friend thought it would be fun to throw her a baby shower. I have been wanting to learn so bad to make a diaper cake. It was super fun to learn how to do! My friend steph dixon has a friend that has a crafty blog called "Homemade by jill". She has tutorials on how to do fun crafts. One of them was to make a diaper cake. So I tweeked her way of doing it and did my best to make my first diaper cake. I totally thought it was going to be a disaster trying to make but it turned out! :) I had fun making this and would like to do it again. I wish I would've had more diapers but now I will know for next time.

Yesterday we went to Applebees to eat & chat with each other and it was soooo fun. Kate, Lou, & Chris have been there since elementary years and we've been the best of times. Thanks for making me laugh and being wonderful amazing friends!
