Kitties still in love


I was afraid that by "fixing" our kitties they would lose the attraction they had for each other. But nope, they still love each other. They are so cute to watch. They give each other baths and are always by each other. Oh how cute. Most guys would say, "Gag me!" Ha Ha. I love it.

Fun Weekend with my sisters











This last weekend we went down to help my oldest sister Sarah with a few chores, meals, watching her kids and quality time because she just had a baby. It was also fun to spend time with Liz and her family.I feel so blessed to have sisters and great brothers as well. I feel that each time I visit my family our relationships get stronger. Wes was able to get a guys night out with his brothers on Friday night. They went to a place with go carts and stuff. He was able to act like a kid again for a few hours. He stayed out until about 1:00 AM. That is rare for him. :)
Wes helped watched the kids while Liz and I went shopping at the Modbe clearance sale and also so I could go out to lunch with my sisters. It was so nice. Now that Lilly is older I am getting a little bit more freedom. I love being a mom, but I feel like I can be a better mom when I get a little bit of a break.

Goodbye training wheels

Byron learned how to ride his bike without training wheels. The other day we went out there and our 3 year old neighbor was riding this huge bike without training wheels. So, that motivated him to keep trying. He was really timid at first. But, then we told him that if he kept trying we would give him a dollar. Maybe that wasn't the right parenting tactic. But, it worked. He is almost an expert. :)

Ethan likes to ride his bike often as well. In the mornings after we drop Byron off at the bus stop, we go walking. He rides his bike (with training wheels of course), to the track. While I push Lilly in the stroller.

Green Bean Thief


The other night we were getting dinner ready and we put a bowl of cold green beans on the counter. Ethan kept putting his hand up over the counter and sneaking them. We have always tried to feed our kids healthy. Only our kid would sneak cold green beans. I laughed so hard!

Happy Anniversary Babe!


The other night my mom came into town and watched all three of our kids so Wes & I could go on a quad ride and also go out on a date. We went to the play "High School Musical" in Brigham. They have a cool old church that they use for a theater. It was so fun! We haven't been out alone since Lilly was born.
It was crazy. Right when we got out of the play, there was this huge lighting storm. Lightning is one of my greatest fears! Anywho, we looked up on the mountain and it had started a fire. It was scary. I hate fires. It wasn't anywhere near our house, but it was pretty intense. Luckily that storm wasn't quite as bad when it came by our house.
All in all we had a great time. I can't believe we have been married 7 years already. It has gone by so fast. I love you babe!
