AcHiEvEmNeNt DaYs....

Thursday morning was an activity for achievement days girls. I am now a leader for the 8 year old girls. We had an outdoor water activity. It was a lot of fun. The girls really seemed to enjoy it. So did Cody and Landen. I had to take them with me. They were so worn out when we got home. Cody took a three hour nap. NiCe!!! Our lesson for the girls was teamwork. We had different relays they got to do that involved teamwork. We also played water balloon volleyball and ran threw the sprinklers. We then had a lunch for them. We cooked hot dogs, which by the way were so good! Had chips, lemonade and Popsicles when the activity ended. Good Times!!!

Today is Matt and I's 10 year anniversary! This has gone by so fast I can hardly believe it. What a crazy, amazing ten years it has been. I am so happy that we can be celebrating this day. Matt is an amazing man. You would have to be to put up with me! I love him so much and I know we will have many more anniversaries to come! We didn't get to do too much today in the way of celebrating. Since Matt had to work and didn't get home until around 8:30. We decided to meet him at JCW's in Lehi and get some yummy food. We totally love this place. We go way to often! We didn't get each other gifts. Just not yet anyway. We could not decide what we wanted to do or buy. I did buy a cute little miniature looking wedding cake to recreate the day. Fun! Plus the cake just looked really good. Thanks babe for being such a great husband. You will always be my Hero! You have saved me many times!!!

PiCtUrEs FrOm ThE 4Th...

You need to go to my mom's blog (Dan & Lynette) She already has them all posted! Since mine are not working tonight.

HaPpY 4Th oF JuLy....

This year we decided to spend the night at my Mom's in Provo so we could be down there for the big Parade in the morning. My Mom watched the boys so Matt and I could go on a much needed date! I think our last date was when Matt got arrested! Remember that??!! While we were out Mom and Dan took the boys to Colonial Days. That was going on in downtown Provo. The boys had so much fun and even got cotton candy! Spending the night didn't go as well as I thought it would. The boys were so wired they would not go to bed. We all slept in the same room and Matt declared lights out! So I could not read into the wee hours of the night. (FYI I have finally finished the entire Work and the Glory series. Only took me a few months!) So it took me forever to fall asleep. Then first it was Cody to wake up, then Landen. They were disoriented and could not find the bathroom. So that was another event. Finally we all settled in except for Matt. He ended up on the couch! Sorry Babe! We got up nice and early so we could get to our hopefully still saved spots at the Parade. Good thing they were. We had a great spot right at the start of the parade. It was horribly hot but the boys did great. After awhile they got bored and didn't care anymore. We were pouring water on the boys to keep them cool. Landen was drinking a can of strawberry lemonade and started pouring that on his head! So he was nice and sticky. After the parade we went to lunch with Matt's brother Justin. Then hung out until it was time for our 4Th of July dinner with Mom and Dan. It was so yummy! After we lit sparklers and a few fire crackers the neighbor had then walked down to the rest home that was putting on a show for the residents. They had a great little set up. Plus Matt got me a banana Slurpee from the gas station. It was soooooo good! To finish of our night we parked outside the BYU stadium to watch the big show that they put on. The boys were so into it. They make the holidays so fun! Then we took of for home sweet home! Excited to be back in our own beds! I have tons of cute pics but blogger is being very lame and not letting me post them!

BuSy DaY...

This morning I had my Obgyn appointment at Alta View Hospital. So we started our day off nice and early. Everything went great at the doctor's. I am measuring two weeks larger then I am. I always do. My Mom says maybe that is why I always deliver early. I sure hope that is the case. I have been spoiled with my last two! After the doc's we ran all our errands since we were already out. This was torture for me since the boys were sick of being dragged around and Landen was getting very close to nap time. Of course on the way home he fell asleep. This was a long enough drive that when we did get home and turned off the car he was wide awake and no chance of getting him to go back to sleep. Gerrrrr! I so look forward to these precious naps! Of course today was scorching hot and I didn't want to sit outside with the boys and since Landen was no way going to lay down I decided we should go to the movies! Landen has never been. I wasn't worried about Cody since he is older and has gone several times. Landen is 2 1/2 and never sits still. I didn't know what I was getting myself into....but to my surprise he was awesome. We loaded up on snacks and drinks from Target then we went and saw WALL-E. It Was cute. The boys loved it. So my day turned out pretty well. I got everything done I needed to do plus had some fun with the kids!

SwImMiNg At ScEra.....

Yesterday we spent the day swimming again. Last time we went it was during the week. I was a little worried about how a Saturday would be like. We got there before it opened so we could be one of the first to get in. This way we were sure to get a good shady spot too! When they let us in it was a mad dash for all the good spots. We got one. Thanks to my mom. She had it all scoped out. The pool was so nice. It wasn't too crowded either. It seemed better than it was on the weekday. Landen was much more comfortable this time. He would even venture out on his own. Cody was perfecting his dive. It is not really diving he just jumps in but he calls it diving. We would play "chase" where Cody swims away from me and Landen and I have to catch him. This seemed to be a favorite too! The other cool hang out is the little swim park. The water is freezing cold but the boys still seem to enjoy playing in it! Once again I got sun burned. Not as much as last week but still!!! I even made sure I kept putting on sunscreen. My boys never get burned. For some reason I seem to repel the sunblock! We had a great time and can't wait to go again! Maybe one of these days we can get Matt to join us. He had already made plans with Justin his brother and his friend Jamie to go GT Live in Tooele. I think he had a better time then he would have swimming. He got to do a ride along in a race prep Mustang. This may even be the highlight of his year! He also ran auto cross with his sweet Eclipse! I should have him doing his own post about this. I am sure I am not telling it right or doing justice to how cool this day really was for him!

This is the Mustang Matt did his ride along in.



Matt's sweet Eclipse! Sarcasm dripping!!!! He did his auto run in 43 sec. I was going to upload the video of it but it was taking way too long!

Okay! So I have made it to six months! Yea. For awhile a thought this would never get here fast enough. I am starting to feel better. I am not sick all the time. The headaches seem to easing up a bit. I am probably cursing myself right now! I have gotten some energy back. So I can finally catch up on some house and yard work. And now maybe my family can stand to be around me! HA! I can be pretty grouchy when I am preggers.
