What's Happening In Our Neck Of The Woods

My lovely neighbors(aka-Nana and Papa Brown) blessed my sweet older children with a Plane ride! They flew over the house and got to see everything from up high and I got to wave at them.They LOVED it!! I seriously have the BEST In-Laws!! SERIOUSLY!!!!

So I was sitting inside doing who knows what(can't remember) and Jarrin runs in full speed and yells " MOM GRAB YOUR CAMERA AND COME SEE!!" I asked him what it was that he wanted a picture of and he just yelled the same thing. So I grabbed my camera and I asked him what he wanted a picture of and he pointed to the sky and said " Take a picture of that! It looks like Jesus is coming down, like when he visited the Nephites in America!!" Makes my heart happy.

So this was our first attempt at a friend sleep over and it went well. We had a blast. We started with pizza and then ha a campfire and roasted marshmallows and made smores. Then FINALLY bedtime! half the kids fell asleep in the first hour but Jarrin and Josh came down wide awake and Jarrin said " MOM...I have SO MUCH ENERGY that I could cut down ALL the trees on the Earth" This was at 12:30 am. hahaha. They fell asleep 20 minutes later. Then in the morning we had a yummy pancake breakfast and then went hiking up the back. We then had pool time, sprinkler time and slip n' slide time until the parents came, So here are the eventful pictures from the day. :D

Sawyer got a drink to keep himself refreshed. Love the lips!

Brynn and Keeley had a few good slides before they were freezing and went to bundle up in the sun.
Some crashes and wacky slides.
Nate had some sweet moves.


Josh did this hilarious dance on the slip n' slide!! Silly guy!
There was some serious racing going on here too.



Nate had the pose and all! Surfin' on his knees.

They decided to slide looking like gorillas!

This was funny and I though his Mom and Dad would get a kick out of it! Check out the swing and the set up for that one! hahaha! (no one was hurt...don't worry)
Some pics of the 2 sweet lil' girls.

Look at those super adorable faces!!!

I found a frog and HAD to show the kiddos!! That was entertainment enough watching them chase after it and take turns torturing..I meant holding the frog. hehe


It was such a FUN time! Jarrin and Keeley would love a sleepover every night if they could!! Can't wait for the next one!!

NO, not me! haha! We have 2 sets of twin deer running around here. It's fun to just sit by the window and watch the animals stroll by and snack on our weeds and grass .

So my little man, Sawyer, tried to get a hold of my camera one day and as I was trying to gently take it, and the bink that he found,he started his tantrum so I asked him to go stand in the middle of my room and I would take pictures of him. He let go of the camera but got away with the bink. He quickly jumped up and started began what became his little dance session with his bink in the mouth.
We didn't know it was going to be SO fun!







What a funny boy! These are going to be perfect for dating years!!!

So Sawyer thought it was SO funny to get under the covers and pop up and Boo like a ghost. He had the cutest giggle under there. All I could see was the blanket moving up and then he'd laugh so hard he fall down and disappear, then pop back up.



He was having fun until he got to far to the end of the bed and freaked out.

So the kids and I LOVE the splash pad. It's great because the park is right next to it too. It was a FUN day for all of us!





Sawyer found a hiding spot. He was so cute!!

One thing that I LOVE about my Hubby is his willingness to be goofy and silly with the kids! He is such a FUN Dad! Jarrin and Keeley were loving it!


See it started with Jarrin wanting me to take pictures of his other lost tooth in the front. Then it just got crazy from there!
