The food blog

Is up and going HERE. I will e-mail the info to those of you who wanted to be contributors, so that you can do just that...start contributing:).

Toasted marshmallows

I know I have mentioned this before but...I LOVE being able to have a fire in our back yard fire pit! I just LOVE it! Last night was the perfect night for it. It was so nice to settle in by a fire and talk, watch the kids run around on the grass, and just enjoy being outside! We ate hot dogs and "mot mallows" (Rachels way of saying it) until we were stuffed, or sick either one...I think I felt mostly sick after :). Next in order is a BBQ and outside movie night...? I think I need to watch Jaws. Does any know know where I can rent and outside movie projector?

P.S. Nathan made the most amazing smore EVER last night! He took a piece of chocolate and stuffed it inside the HUGE mallow and then toasted it over the fire....There are hardly words to describe it's goodness.

Summer fun

So we have just been hanging out the last few weeks. Becca started Ballet lesson on Monday. She LOVES it! It is so cute to watch her, she is the most graceful 5 year old alive I swear it! Rachel was not too thrilled to find out that she would have to wait another year before she could also start dancing, such is the life of a 3 year old:).  And Olivia is drooling, and jabbering her days away...She does not stop...unless she is sleeping.

Yesterday my mom and I decided to be adventurous and take all five kids (my niece and nephew  London and Tyler made up the 5) to Goshen. My dad's movie set is being constructed out there, and we had not seen it yet. A lot of hours and grumpy kiddos later we made it back home :). I think they enjoyed it for the most part...? 

The sets for the movie are still under consrtuction so the kiddos had to wear hard hats...Rachel was not fond of hers At all! I thought they were too stinking cute personally :)

 Jerusalem in Goshen Utah....who knew?

Prima Ballerina :)

Cousins

The girls have been having a lot of fun this past week. Their cousin London came into town, and it has been non stop play play play! Becca and London got to have a sleep over the other night at our house. So the girls and I went to the store and bought some fun sleep over food! Oreo's, soda drink, and popcorn for the movie we rented! Becca picked out Alvin and the Chimpunks Werewolf movie, which seemed like a good fit considering that it was stormy outside:) We are so excited to have our little London with us for a few more weeks!  I have a some pictures from the past week below :).  I threw in a couple of pictures from last Sunday.....It was so beautiful outside! I seriously love our backyard. I love watching the girls play out in the big field behind our house, I love it!

Sleepover!
