Father's Day at the Cabin

We had a great weekend up at the Shipley cabin. Grandma, Grandpa, and our cousin Kayla were there. The boys loves riding the 4-wheelers and swinging on the swings. I finally convinced Beck to eat a Smore and not just a plan cold marshmallow. I am glad to be able to spend Father's day with our Jon in a place that he loves.

Ruby is 4 months old

Ruby is a happy little 4 month old. She loves spending time in her Bumbo and checking out the world. She still loves to be held a lot and likes to sleep very little. Her little personality is shinning through. She smiles, coo's and laughs.

Sunday's

I love a nice summer Sunday. We always have a lot of fun hanging out as a family. This past Sunday we gathered at my parents to celebrate Liz and Kelsey's birthdays. These sister in laws are so much fun and are so young. Liz turned 21 and Kelsey turned 22. We love having them in our family and it has been fun to add two more sisters to the group. My kids equally love them. Liz, Jon will prepare a fantastic birthday card for your 22nd. I guess he figures that you have many more birthdays ahead.

Lagoon Season Begins

It was our first day at Lagoon. We had a great time riding the rides with all our Lehi pals. Beckham has gotten braver and Ira is working on it. He is pretty content to hang out and watch Beck. We look forward to a summer full of Lagoon fun with friends. Well you know the saying " Lagoon its where the fun is".

Memorial Weekend

We spent our Memorial weekend in Las Vegas. We decided to adventure out and see something new. We visited the Hoover Dam and the new bridge they are building near it. It was so incredible to see and we were all amazed at the engineering of the bridge. We spent a little time on the strip and on Fremont Street. Beck loved seeing all the big hotels. Especially the tower hotel (stratosphere). I loved spending the weekend with my family and enjoying the beautiful weather. It is always great to see Scott and Melissa and their kiddos and cannot wait until they move up our way next month.

Swim Lesson's

We had some fun pool time after out swim lessons. Hailey stayed with us for the week and we had a lot of fun with her.

Preschool Program

Super Stars Preschool wrapped up their year with a special program. Beck did a fantastic job. He sang the songs and danced around. He even participated with the Going on a Bear Hunt song. I am going to miss picking Beck up and having him walk the path out to the cars with his class. He always is so happy to share with me what he did that day. I am glad we have one more year with Mrs. Lindley before the big K.

Another Hidden Talent

Candice promised her niece Mykell that she would make balloon dogs at her birthday party. So an hour before the party she watched a YouTube video and made these up for the boys. Wow between Jon juggling fire and Candice making balloon creations we will soon have a circus. Stay tuned for other secret hidden family talents. Beck talks a lot about people blasting off in cannons so maybe uncle Zach will cover this one for us.

Ruby is 3 months old

Hidden Talent

Did you know that my man Jon is a juggler??? Not only does he juggle clubs, balls or sometime cupcakes......but he juggles FIRE oooohhhaaahhhh. Yes Fire! On rare occasions he is eager to share his talent. I am impressed!

Mother's Day

I love being a Mom! I feel so blessed to have my beautiful children.

Cinco De Mayo

We had a great Cinco De Mayo party at our house. It was full of great friends, Carne Asada, Cinnamon Crustos, Pina Coladas, Yummy dessert, Pinata, and of course the Mexican Horse Race. " Whoof Arted " Leslie?

5 Little Monkeys

Party in the boys room! The kids love to jump off Beck's bed onto Ira's. All fun til one bonks their head.

Clark Planetarium

Our family took a little trip to the Clark Planetarium. Beck loved it. Jon on the other hand was not impressed at all. Beck has such a strong interest in planets and space. In the gift shop Beck picked himself up a new spaceship and Jon picked up a science project. He bought a piece of plastic that holds two two liter bottles together so that you can create a tornado with water. Needless to say Beck has been asking non stop questions about Tornado's.



The Tornado.



Who is the kid with Beck? Heck I don't know. Right as we were about to take the picture this kid popped up next to Beck. Beck certainty does not seem to mind his new pal.
