Cabin

We spent last weekend at my Grandpa's cabin near Evanston, WY. It was a TON of fun!! The boys had a blast. We were able to swing on the huge tree swing, fish, play in the tree house, eat, cook pine cones over a 'fire', learn to potty off the balcony, eat, play baseball, use a mattress as a slide and eat some more!

Thanks Grandma and Grandpa - we had so much fun!!



















The boys love their cousin, baby Kylee, and usually invade her personal space and just smother her! She is going to be one tough cookie :0)

No more diapers!!

Last week, I was putting Jason down for a nap and he told me that he had to go potty, so I put him down and told him to go. (He does this every once in a while and just acts like he is going in the potty.) He ran in the bathroom and then came back and told me that he did not want to wear diapers anymore and wanted to put underwear on! I said, "Okay, after your nap."

When Jason woke up from his nap, he wanted the underwear on, so we put them on. I was planning on potty training sometime this summer but was not quite ready! Well, he has not put a diaper on since and is doing AWESOME!!! He has very few to no accidents a day and even wakes up dry! I am thrilled to not have to buy diapers anymore!!


There is a piece of candy in Jason's mouth. Candy was the KEY bribery item for him. Tyler could care less about candy and wanted toys!

Visit from the Scanlan's

Fred and Codi came to visit us for a few days at the beginning of the month. We had a great time! The kids had a blast running the tractor into the ground everyday, Fred and Jimmy got in lots of golf and Codi and I were able to sneak away one night for a little shopping. We had a great time and wish you guys lived closer!

Fun activities in May

I am trying to get caught up on my blog. I have been horrible this whole year! It seems that I only get about 1 or 2 posts a month! I guess life has just been busy.

Here are a few pictures of what we were up to in May:


Visiting Rangely to see Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Quinton, Aunt Courtney and of course, baby Kylee






Mini golf with Payton and Levi Brooks












The boys spent more time lying in the hole themselves intead of getting the ball in it!

A robyn build its nest in one of our trees! It was really cool to see the eggs hatch and watch the baby birds grow so fast!! They were grown and gone in about three weeks.



Hiking





Swimming (we have not been able to get the pool out in June!)
