Family Swim Night

Brad's family came in town last weekend for Jace's blessing. We went swimming at the hotel, it was a blast! We didn't think Jace would be big on the whole water thing but he loved it!

I am so bummed because we didn't take ONE picture at the blessing! There was so much going on that it just didn't happen. I want to thank everyone for coming it was a beautiful day! Our kids are so blessed to have so many great people that love them. Thanks Brad for being such a wonderful Dad!

Pumpkin Painting & Other Activities...

Can you guess Who's Who?

Brad trying to make his jaw look more defined:)

Quite the resemblance don't ya think

Somehow our pumpkin painting night turned into a pull-up face off!

Pumpkin Patch

Last week we tagged along with the preschool pals kids to the Pumpkin Patch. Carson loved it!

Never Say Never!!!!

It has taken me almost a month to come to terms with this enough that I can post a picture. I have always said that I would never do two things: 1) Own a Minivan MAV (Mormon Assault vehicle) or 2) Chop my hair off. For some reason these 2 things scream MOM to me.(Not that my 2 kids and messy house don't:) However after having to wash spit up out of my hair and listen to my baby scream for the 45 minutes it would take to do my hair I finally did it - it is gone! The picture above is what was taken off. I warned my hairdresser that I was going to cry before she even started. She said she had never had someone cry so I guess I was her first. I held it together pretty well at her house but when I got in the car I BALLED. She did a GREAT job on the cut and did exactly what I thought I wanted but I was not quite ready for the change. It didn't help that Brad really does not like short hair and asked me not to do it in the first place. He tried to be a good sport and mustered up a "Looks Good" but could barely look at me! I am starting to like it at this point but still cry every once in a while. Now, many of you will see the pic and think "that is not even very short" but to me I feel bald!

Now, does anyone know of a good deal on a minivan?????

Island Park Trip

I told Carson it was going to be cold in Island Park so he made sure he had his hat. What else do you need?

Cute Jace

Me & the Kiddos

Carson had a ton of fun playing (mostly bossing around) with cousin Kate.

The Fam

Just Chillin with Dad

Jace loves his Snuggly - especially now that he can turn around and check things out!

Carson is ready to ride Uncle Scott's 4 wheeler, however he ended up falling asleep for most of the ride:)

A big thanks to Grammy & Papa Bowen for the great weekend at the Cabin!
