Father's Day Camping Trip

Over the Father's day weekend we went camping at Newton Dam. We did a lot of playing in the water...

A lot of exploring...

The guys played horseshoes....

While the rest of us watched...

We had a lot of time to just hang out...

It was an awesome weekend! Good times with good friends and the greatest family...What more can you ask for?

Happy Father's Day!

A Shoe Fetish

The girls love my shoes and I think it's so funny to watch then carry their purses around and wear my shoes and pretend to be each other's mommy. They are better at walking in them than me!

My new favorite cookbook!

On the Friday before Mother's day McKenzie had been up sick the night before, so I called her teacher and arranged to stop by to pick up some papers and stuff that she would be missing in school that day. In it was a book called "Our Favorite Recipes." I flip through and see the names of all the children from her class and start feeling bad that I somehow missed the note that says, "Please send your favorite family recipe for our class cookbook" I get in the car and set it down and on the way home I'm pretty upset that because of me she's missed out on having a part in a cute little keepsake. Then I get home and I flip to where her class' recipes begin and I start to read them.... the first recipe is as follows:

Chocolate Strawberries

Ingredients: 100 strawberries, 1 chocolate, 1 water

Procedure: Put chocolate in the pan. Put water in it. Put strawberries in the chocolate. Then they are done.

I'm confused and I read the next one...

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients: 1 cup sugar, all the chocolate chips, 1 cup brown sugar, 1 cup flour

Procedure: Make the dough and stir it with the mixer in a bowl. Take out the dough out and roll it into a ball and put it on a tray and put it in the oven. Cook it for 6 hours at super hot!

And it clicks...I finally realize that it's a cookbook compiled of all the children's takes on how to prepare their favorite foods. It's such a cute idea! Some of them are so funny! I wish I could post them all! Here is McKenzie's...

Chicken

Ingredients: stuff to make it, 22 pieces, stuff that makes it taste good

Procedure: put it in the microwave for 5 minutes and in the oven for 6 more minutes at 2 degrees

Happy Birthday Savanah!

My sweet and crazy little niece just turned 3. We had a pizza party...

...And cake...

...She blew out the candles...

...And ate cake and ice cream with her dad...

...She "LOVED" her presents...

...especially her new bike...

...Daddy helped her learn ride, with Brooklyn at her side...

...And she's off!!!

Brooklyn took it for a spin...

...and Kenzie did too!

Happy Mothers Day!

I'm so lucky for all the reasons I have to celebrate Mother's Day!

I have my sweet little princess Brooklyn - who I just can't help but smile at - she's so sweet!

And McKenzie, who amazes me everyday! I walked into her room one day and found her "locked up in a castle" - she's got such an imagination!

I really have the best mom ever! She's one of my best friends!

I do have the best mother-in-law! (How many people can say that!)

And also a husband that spoils me rotten. I've been wanting a nice camera FOREVER and he finally broke down and got me one! YAY!

I hope you all had a great Mother's Day too!

My girls never cease to amaze me!!!
