Four Jingle Bells

This is kinda random. some fun flower clips I've been making while I still have the umph. Now we have two girls, gotta get some more girly stuff going! Hailey and Spencer had their first dental visits today. They both did so great. Spencer loved laying in the chair and was really mad when it wasn't his turn anymore. No cavities though! Spencer has three teeth coming in and Hailey has some trauma from her big fall against the church bench at church a few months ago.

We went on a train ride with my sister's family and my mom this past weekend. It was great. The kids loved all the old trains and checking out the dessert landscaping. It was great weather even, cloudy so we didn't die! This was all Hailey. Trust me, I don't think my 4 year old should look cuter "pregnant" than me! She is always telling me she wants to be a mom and a doctor. We are involved in a ward cooking class this summer that has been super fun. So far, we have made dips, chicken dinner, and pizzas. Of course Spencer loves helping too because it is food! 35 weeks and counting!! Our little rocker...Spencer is so obsessed with music. His favorite song is "Single Ladies" from Beyonce and "Jesus wants me for a Sunbeam". He's also a fan of anything Dave Mathews and claps and says yay after every song ends. We've been working on growing some sunflowers. Hailey likes to read to them. Hopefully, we will have some blooms on them s...

Some late 4th of July pictures...we made these shirts and the little noisemaker cups. The kids loved them and we had a great time at my parents eating lots of great food and setting of illegal fireworks! We went to Home depot for the kid's workshop and this was Hailey's finished masterpiece! It took her about 1 1/2 hours to paint it just how she wanted. It was so fun. In their Home Depot aprons. Spencer is such a little relaxer!! He always takes the big comfy chair and thinks he needs it all for himself. What a bum!

Blake had to go to Philadelphia for work in June and had a great time working 80-90 hours in a week. He did get to go to the Free Masons temple which he is currently obsessed with. Someday when we are millionaires, he will be a Free Mason and have lots of secret ceremonies. Ha! He brought back these gifts for Hailey and Spencer. Hailey wears her shirt all the time and Spencer rings the bell all the time...thanks for that dad!! He thought this was a pretty cool phone in his hotel room.

Blake went on a hike on 4th of July with my dad, Michelle, Ethan and Clayton. It was quite the hike around 10 miles with lots of switchbacks but he did it and lived to tell the tale....and get some great pictures!!! The squirrel below was eating out of a bag of their cheetos. He was so excited to tell Hailey about it. What a great dad!!
