Camping

Last weekend Ty and I took the boys and Jaina camping. We had a super-good time.

The boys loved playing with the fire wood and the pine cones.

They also really liked jumping off the tree stumps


We even got in a hike before dinner...

Of course, what's camping without s'mores???

...and bugs!



The next morning the boys and I let Ty sleep in a bit.

So, we started a fire (yipee for us) and then took some sunrise shots.

Then we woke Ty up and had breakfast. After breakfast we broke camp and headed up the rest of the mountain (to the very top) for more hiking


It was beautiful up there.

Fun for Father's Day

My oldest sister Leah moved from Montana to California last week. Her family spent the last week at my parents' house. While they were here, Ty and I had the opportunity to spend some time with her kids (and my other sister, Amber's kids). Since there were 8 kids total (including ours), we decided to split up the group and only take 3 (and our 2) at a time. The older kids went first.
The next day, Ty and I took the younger 3 (along with Ian and Luke). The younger kids loved shooting Ty's airsoft guns! They couldn't wait to tell the older boys what they got to do :P
While they were here, we hit a friends pool and one of the many spray parks here.
Saturday, the day before Father's day, we had a big dinner at my parents' house. Boy was the house full!!!
We spent a quite day at our house on Sunday, for Father's Day. The boys and I made Ty a nice breakfast. After, Ty opened his gifts from the boys and then we went to the movies to see Kung Fu Panda~super-cute BTW.

Baseball, Park, Shower and a Birthday...

Friday, was Ty's company softball game. The boys had so much fun. They loved being able to watch the game and run around with other kids at the same time.


Saturday, since it was too cold to go camping (which is what we had planned to do), we went to Hart Park for a few hours to get some fresh air. The first thing we saw when we got to the park were firefighters and a helicopter putting out a fire across the river. Luke really liked the helicopter! Once the fire was out, we continued on our little hike by the river. Before heading home, we noticed a couple with some horses~ Honey and Rain. Ian was very interested in the horses and the people were kind enough to let Ian sit on them (Luke didn't want to sit on them, he only wanted to pet them).


Sunday, was my friend Serina's baby shower. I made the baby some hats, bows for her hair and a baby blanket.


Monday night Ty and I were busy making a cake for my nephew's birthday the next day. He had a little trouble blowing out his candles...hehe!!! (trick candles are awesome)


Harvest time...

Our first harvest was on May 25th
The second...June 5th
So far we've gotten 7 zucchini's, 3 summer squash and about 30 strawberries.
