SLACKER....


This summer has gone by so fast and without any documentation at our house. It doesn't help that i lost my battery charger for my camera and had 2 dead batteries until i found it under our bed this week.

We have been trying to keep cool in the 110+ weather we have been having. For July 4th we rented a bounce/water house slide. It was a blast the kids played on it for 5 hours straight and then again the next day. So worth it.





We also play out in the sprinkler to keep cool, hopefully next year we will have a pool.




And my mom has been here this month helping me with "BABY PROJECTS"! I'm so glad she came and took charge cause they still wouldn't have been done.

This is one of my favorites so far, "The vintage baby quilt"

Oh and i painted and distressed this old antique dresser for the babes room. I love it.


And we made the bedding too. And when when i say "WE" i mean i picked it all out and told my mom what i wanted....and VOILA! I did help...a little.
The ruffled crib skirt,
i got the idea from here. But wasn't willing to pay the price.

The cute sign my mom made for the wall
We still have some added touches to make to the room but that will come.

Prego Pic

I took this a couple weeks ago and have tried to dodge the camera since, so this may be the only prego pic i share.

21 weeks
I have a feeling my butt is growing faster than my belly.... why does this always happen to me? And if you were just thinking because you eat like crap Melissa then your probably right! Still not fair!!!

Oh Canada...

WARNING.. Picture over load.
And this is the scaled down version.

This past month the boys and i flew up to Canada to visit family. They love going and spending time with their cousins and hanging out with Grandma's and Grandpa's.

Peyton was able to go to school with his cousin Madi, they had a lady come teach then about Dinosaurs. He loved it.




And let me tell you a little about the weather while we were home...besides it snowing the first weekend we were there it RAINED and RAINED and RAINED. The kids loved sitting on my mom's deck to watch the rain storms.

I got to see my girls from high school and eat some yummy Japanese food with them.



Brody insisted on using my moms decorative mixing bowl for his cereal...???



Happy Birthday Auntie Carly.. oops.
Brody and Peyton found a giant chocolate bar that my mom bought Carly for her birthday! So needless to say we ran out to the store to get her another one.

We had a little get together for her and when i say little i mean there were more kiddos there then adults i think.

She asked for snickers cheesecake so i whipped this puppy up for her. We also enjoyed french toast and homemade buttermilk syrup for dinner.... mmmmm my kind of dinner!


And here are the guests. Sorry Carly that we didn't have very many people there.


On our way to Whitefish!!!
I love going to Montana in the summer, it's beautiful and relaxing and my kids love it too. Besides staying inside the cabin or mall on the rainy days we did get out a little. Here are some pics of what we did.
The boys on the way down.

We went to the beach a couple times. The water was FREEZING but the kids didn't care.

Anissah built Caymbree this hole for her to sit so she wouldn't go in the lake

She loved it and enjoyed drinking the muddy water too.
