Day of fun!

Well we decided to spend a day at Lagoon! Actually 2 days (the first day with the kids and the 2nd day without) and that was plenty of Lagoon to last me a couple of years.

Take note if you get motion sickness...

So I get motion sickness pretty easily so the first day I took a dramamine and it worked great, didn't get sick at at all. The second day I started getting a little car sick in the car on the way to Lagoon so I pulled out the Dramamine to take one for the day and decided, what the heck, since I'm already feeling a little sick I'll take two. So an hour or so after we got to Lagoon I was really tired and couldn't figure out why. Then it hit me, does Dramamine make you tired??? Well it sure does, I could hardly walk, let alone see straight, I went on ride after ride and nothing phased me at all. I think I could've fallen asleep on the free falls. So don't ever take two Dramamine unless you are trying to fall asleep.


Anyway, Bailey loved the rides and had tons of fun. Beau just hung out and was the happy little guy that he is. As long as he has food and can walk around throwing stuff, he's happy.

This was the beginning of our day, Bailey woke up on the wrong side of the bed, but it only took her one ride to be happy.


My kids look so big to me here, time sure goes by fast. Bailey is now 2 1/2 and Beau is 14 mths.
Me and my li'l buddy!
This is about the best kind of pictures I get of Bailey, she's such a stinker and won't open her eyes all the way if she's looking at me or she'll just look away and smile. But you can see she got happy pretty quick.
Handsome little guy just walking around looking for something to climb on.
Me and Bailey, I love this girl, she is so funny and we have so much fun together.

Of course we had to take a picture of ourselves, here's Jer and me.
Bailey, Beau, and their cousin Amanda. This was one of the few rides Beau went on. Amanda was such a big helper with him.
Bailey and Amanda on the airplanes.
This was way too funny to watch. On the back row on the right is Bailey, her cousin Sierra (they're kinda hard to see) Jeremy, and my brother in law, Will. In front of them is Brielle, & Tyler (cousins) and my brother in law, Mike, and the two girls hangin on for dear life are cousins, Amanda and Ashlyn. The kids were lauging so hard and so were the adults, but I think the adults were happier when the ride was over. I can't do this one it makes me so sick.

This is the little kids free fall in the kiddie land section. I was a little nervous for Bailey thinking she wouldn't like it but she loved it, and wanted to go again.

I think this was Bailey's favorite, she was singing, laughing, and making crazy faces the whole time, it was so cute to watch her.

The old and the new (kids that is!!!)

Good times...
I got together with some of my old high school friends, some that I haven't seen since we graduated 10 years ago, and some it's been a few years. We had a great time catching up on everyone's lives, chasing all the kids we've had and are still having, (holy cow there's lots of them) and reminiscing a little about the good old days.


Girls you can take these pictures for your blogs if you want (I'm sure you don't want all the one's with me but if your in it, feel free). They're not full res. so they're not printable, if you're in the picture I'll be emailing the full res. file soon.



A few of the girls kiddies which of course we all had such cute kids!



Me and Amanda
Me and Lindsi
Me and Cami


Me and Sara

Jill, me and Michelle (sorry your eyes are closed Jill it's the only one we got)

The two little scroungers, my Beau and Sara's Addie kept eating anything and everything they could get their hands on.
Girls it was a lot of fun to see everyone, we better do it again sooner than later.

Oh the warm days!

This picture was actually taken about a month ago when it was warm, do you remember? I am so sick of this weather. One because I just want to take my kids outside and not get rained on or blown away. But I guess that's what happens when you live in Utah, it's 80 degrees one day and it snows the next, so whatever... we'll enjoy every warm day we get.
My kids could live in water, water is the best toy ever. They had tons of fun playing with a few cousins and neighbor friends in the kiddie pool in the backyard.

Rock Your Day!

You might notice that I just added a little new section called Daily Reads right above my friends and family link list. I found the coolest blog where a mom and wonderful women that I've only briefly met once before, started a blog called "Rock your day". It's all about the Book of Mormon. You can go on click on the link to the chapter, read the chapter, and then go back to her own commentary and others comments about the chapter for the day. She does a post every single day about one chapter starting in 1 Nephi. I've been doing it for 5 days straight now and I love it and am getting so much out of the Book of Mormon this time through. (I'm only on CH. 5 but I really am getting more out of it, and I look forward to her comments. They make sense! So check it out if you want, just thought I'd share.

Bailey's First Big Boo Boo!

Yesterday Bailey was running in and out of the house and fell two steps down off our front porch and landed flat on her forehead onto the cement. I hated seeing it happen and it broke my heart to see her get hurt.
Here's the picture from last night and then today. Her goose egg was almost the size of a golf ball. Today the swelling had gone down some and she was much happier.

I love my girl so much and am so thankful that she didn't get hurt any worse than she did.
