It's a miracle....

I know most of you are confused looking at this picture because you have never known me to bake, but this is real - I made this Italian bread loaf from scratch!!! I mean from scratch - i mixed the flour, salt, yeast, sugar, etc. I have never even attempted such a laborious activity in the kitchen - to me baking bread was pulling out the rodes roles from the freezer and letting them raise. So what changed my mind you might ask? My friend Marcie had me come to a bread making class that was awesome! It only takes an hour from start to finish and it is easy or I couldn't do it:)

St. George Trip

This labor day we headed down to St. George with our friends Josh & Marcie. We had a blast! This is at a place called Pirates something or other. We couldn't believe that there was an hour wait to have pizza!! The kids liked it and we did get to have a real pirate serve us lunch:)

We went to the Visitors Center at the Temple and it was really neat.

A big thanks to Josh & Marcie and Marcie's Dad! We were able to stay at his home and hang out together. The neighborhood had a great pool and park area. We can't wait to go again!

Happy Birthday Boys!

We had a great Birthday week for the boys. Brad turned 29 on the 23rd & Carson turned 3 on the 27th. Brad's parents were in Park City for the week so we headed up there to celebrate. Scott, Cassie & Kate also came for the weekend and we had a blast!

Kate got Carson all of this swim gear & he loved it!

The ladies (and Jace) hanging pool side while the boys swam.

Carson loved the guns he got, maybe a little too much:)

Carson is ready to go fix something!

Birthday party number 2 was at my mom's house yesterday. Carson had a ton of fun with all his cousins!

Daddy & Jace

The fam - no carson - we couldn't get him to stop playing long enough to get a picture.

Balloons, parachute, & a tramp... what more could a kid ask for?

Kade, Ryan, Eli & Grandma Kris. We were also celebrating because Ryan was ordained an Elder. It was a wonderful day!

Happy Birthday to my boys!!!

Family in Town

At the first of the month we got to spend time with family that lives far away. Clarke & Megan were here for her sister's wedding so we got to hang out!

Grandma Bowen was visiting from Boise and got to see Jace & Addison for the first time.

The Francis Ranch!

A couple of weeks ago we headed up to my Grandma's family ranch above Morgan. We got to ride four wheelers, roast marshmallows and just hang out with family.

My friend has OCD!

So I couldn't figure out how to center the picture in our header so I just left it and figured it was good enough:) However, my OCD friend Mandy could not handle it so she made this awesome header in her digital scrapbook program and sent it right to me. Thanks Mandy!

Hungry for Boogers?

So I think this is hilarious but others may just find it disgusting. Yesterday I watched as Carson picked his nose and put it right in his mouth! I said, "Don't do that! Boogers are disgusting and they will make you sick!!!! NEVER EAT YOUR BOOGERS!" To which he responded, "Boogers are not disgusting they are yummy and I am hungry for more boogers mommy!"
