June

Bentley graduated from her level of swim lessons. She had so much fun doing it.

We took a family drive up the canyon one sunday afternoon after church. 


Me and Bentley enjoyed some crafts one rainy day. She made a church bag and I made a table runner. We both love crafts!




We joined some friends in Hatch. We stayed at their families house there. We went with a few other families. We enjoyed some time at the lake, went hiking in a small slot canyon, which was awesome, went 4 wheeling and just enjoyed hanging out. 


One of Josh's friends family owns a resort by bryce canyon. While we were down there close we stopped by to say hi and the girls enjoyed riding some horses and petting them.



























This was an ad that burly(Josh's hunting clothing line) put on their website. We went and did a fun photo shoot one afternoon. 

Me and the girls went with some neighbor friends on a hike to stewart falls. It was a beautiful hike and perfect for kids. We brought some lunch and then stopped for snow cones after. Bentley sure loves the kids in our neighborhood.








After the hike we went to Lehi with the same friends and watched the horse parade. The kids had a great time!











Another day we met up with the Erikson's, some more friends and went for a bike ride up to bridal veil falls. Bentley's tire got a flat so she had to ride in the trailer, which made for a great workout for me, especially being pregnant. We got to the falls and had snacks and played in the water. The mountains are just the perfect place for us!





This was scary!! I heard the dogs barking one evening(which they don't do too often) so I went to see what was going on and saw this snake. It looked like a rattlesnake, so I didn't want to get too close. I was trying to keep the dogs away too since I didn't know what kind of snake it was. Josh was at the station so I got a neighbor to come over and kill it. It was hissing and striking like crazy which totally grossed me out. It was just a blow snake, which are actually good cause they eat rattlesnakes, but I just couldn't stand the fact that it would be in my yard, so we killed it! It made for an adventurous night!



We love to go to the parks that are close and go there often. We also go on lots of walks and bike rides. We all love to be outside and I love to get a little workout in.


I took the girls to the Alpine splash park. Raegan didn't really like getting splashed, but I think they had a good time.

We made some treats one night for our beehive activity. Bentley loves to be part of the activities and she loves the girls.

Summer has begun...

 We bought this fun double slip n slide and a pool and the girls have had a blast!!
We are so excited summer is here. Let the fun begin!!!




 We went to chuck e cheese for Jace's birthday and they had so much fun. Raegan is definitely growing out of the baby stage and want to do everything Bentley does!


 Cole asked me to make a cake for his baptism day. I had fun making this CTR cake for his special day.

 Bentley started swimming lessons in PG. She loves her teacher and she is doing a great job and is such a little fish.


 So many fun pool days. Raegan also loves to be in the water!




 Gotta love naughty puppies getting into everything!!

 We celebrated grandpas(my dad) birthday! The kids sure do love him!!

 We had a fun fire crew BBQ at the Tandy's house. The kids had a great time playing. Josh has such a fun crew right now!






 We went to the PG pond with the Stevens one afternoon after swim lessons. It was a fun day.




 The last day of swim lessons Bentley got to go down the slides and she was loving every minute of it. She's such a brave and daring girl. Most kids her age are afraid to go down alone, but not her!




Camping at the Baldwin property

 We had a fun weekend at the property. We went 4 wheeling, the girls loved playing on the trampoline and had a nice campfire. On one of our rides we got caught in a huge rain storm. We didn't know what to do. If we stopped we'd be sitting in the pouring rain, so we decided to drive through it and hope that it would pass soon. We were absolutely soaked. Cami was such a good aunt in the back protecting the girls from some of the rain. Raegan actually fell asleep, so I guess Cami did a pretty good job.













 I guess we wore them right out....



 Raegan loved the fountain!
