SUMMERTIME!!

OH it has been SOO nice to have summer weather these past few weeks. We have really taken advantage of it with swimming, walking, 4-wheeler rides, and horse rides!! Carter rode a horse for the first time last weekend. The kids and I spent the night at my mom's house last Friday because Bradey went to Bear Lake with the young men for a high adventure trip.
And of course Londyn had to ride. She's our little cowgirl! She loves to put the lead rope on the halter (while its on the horse) and lead the horse to where ever we are going. My mom always worries that Londyn is going to walk underneath one of the horses and get stepped on. She definitely is fearless!

ON Monday we went back out to Mom's so we could play with Hunter and Jessa (my sister's kids). They are out there every Monday, and it seems if we don't start our week with a play date with our cousins then we have an off week. Anyways, the kids went swimming and had a blast. Carter even got into the baby pool all by himself, and entertained himself for an hour!!
These next pictures are from last month. Londyn wanted to help Bradey get the flower beds ready for planting.
And this one is from this morning. For some reason my kids LOVE the vacuum. Every time I get it out they go straight to it. Which makes me laugh because most kids freak out from the noise. My kids' fearlessness could be dangerous one day! :/

A LOT of Catching UP to do!!

OK so my last blog entry was in FEBRUARY!! Wow I really have some catching up to do.
I'll start with Carter. Our little man is now 8 months old and growing to quickly!! He started sitting up all by himself in March, he started pulling himself up in April, and May is when he started trying really hard to crawl. He's getting better but he still hasn't quite got the concept that his hand and legs have to move at the same time!! But once he starts I know he'll never stop, so I'm ok with him taking his time. Of course Londyn sitting on him when he's almost got it figured out slows down the process!! :) Here are a few pictures of our handsome boy from the past few months.

Family Pictures in March

Carter LOVES to eat hats, especially Dad's!!


Bath Time Fun!!
Our gorgeous Londyn is next!! LONDYN TURNED TWO on April 16!! Can you believe it?!!! My sweet little baby girl is now in her terrible twos!! And oh boy is she a spit fire!! :) But I love her for it. Her new obsessions are kids movies, singing and dancing, and helping Dad and Mom with yard work. What makes us laugh the most is her obsession for Chocolate Milk. She wakes up every morning asking for it. You know how some people just can't function or be talked to until they have their coffee, Londyn is this way with chocolate milk!!
Getting Ready for bed is one of our favorite things to do together as Mommy and Daughter!

Happy 2nd Birthday Londyn J!!
She LOVES to put on Mommy's shoes
Bradey bought her these boots for her birthday. WE can't get her out of them!!
I also have to mention how much my sweet children fight!! OH my heavens!! Carter is still a baby and he has figured how to push his sister's buttons! Whatever she has he will steal. But Londyn steals his toys too, although, he finds away to get it back and gets even by pulling her hair!! :/

ON April 21st Bradey and I spent our 3rd anniversary with a kid free dinner, we went to Red Lobster! It's amazing how much our lives have changed in the past year. We have really grown up and taken on much more responsibilities. And all of this has made us stronger and closer as individuals and a couple! I am so grateful for everything Bradey does for me, he truly is my Superman. Twice in these past few months we spent a week straight away from each other, and I'll tell you those two weeks made me realize I have got it good and easy!! He helps out A LOT with the children, pitches in when it comes to "indoor" chores and he does so much "outdoor" chores!! I love you Babe!

One adventure we did was go to the Oregon Coast Aquarium in Newport, Oregon and then we went to Seattle, Washington for the AMA Supercross Race. We had so much fun!!

A few weeks later me and the kids went back to Washington to hang out with my Dad for a week. It was so fun to see the LOVE between my kids and my Dad. He was just beaming the entire time we were there!! And oh my goodness Carter sang and talk to my Dad that I think it got to the point where he became annoying!! ;) And Londyn kept asking for Pappa to play songs on his guitar!!

Then for Memorial Day weekend we went to Downata Hot Springs with my mom's side of the family!! Carter LOVES the water!! He would just splash and splash!! Londyn of course LOVES the water. She even let go of us and would swim all by herself (with floaties on). She's getting more brave!! Alex and Abbi taught her a BAD habit while we were there though!! She kept sucking in water then spitting it out at people, especially my Grandma V.!!

Sorry there's not many pictures. For some reason the computer won't let me download anything. But you are more than welcome to go on my facebook page and see all the pictures and videos of what my family has been doing!
Love you all!
