We are off to Disneyland and the Beach!

 

Painting in the backyard

We have been out in the backyard enjoying this nice cool weather! The boys love sitting out there and painting. I know it is wierd to some to see Sawyer in his little blue Cinderella dress but to us it is completely normal around here. He has worn it everyday since his birthday which was in May. He is still drawn to princess stuff and barbies. We don’t know where he came from but we sure love him and are told that he will grow out of it someday. As for now, we, or should I say, I am really enjoying this phase! Sawyer is such a sweet little boy.

The Gateway

We had the best day last week. I took Cavin & Sawyer to the Children’s Museum downtown and then we got lunch at Hot Dog on a Stick (Yum)! We then walked down to the Olympic Fountain and the boys had so much fun getting soaked and laughing their heads off! We finished off the trip with Ice Cream from Ben & Jerry’s!

Our Last day at the pool for the summer

Beau and I took the kids to the neighborhood pool one last time before it closed for the summer. Cavin was very timid at the beginning of the summer when we put him in swim lessons we had to bribe him to get in. He has come a long way. He loves the water now and is very confident and loves going under and diving down to get things. Here are some pictures of our great new neighborhood pool that we have enjoyed so much!

Family Reunion

Thanks Mom & Aunt Ann for a fun filled Family Reunion this past weekend. Everything was great minus the fact that Sawyer “sharted” his pants within the first 10 minutes of being there. We were able to clean him up in the bathroom and he went commando the rest of the day.

Thanks for all of your hard work in making it a success!

Our new favorite playground!

We discovered this very fun playground that my Mom’s neighbor told me about. Our boys just love it because it is just like one of the playgrounds we used to live by in New Jersey. We call it the “Castle Park”.

For those of you who didn’t have the time to watch our Video post of Mexico, here are some picture highlights!

The Police Concert 2008 Salt Lake City

The day the Police concert tickets went on sell here in SLC, Beau was on the internet trying to get the best tickets available no matter the cost. Beau anticipated this night for a few months! We got together with a group of friends for dinner at a Japanese Steak House and then headed to the big show! It was a beautiful night outside at the USANA Ampitheater! The show was amazing and we had seats on the 8th row which made the show even better!…from what I hear, there were 22,000 people there that night!

My cousin Todd and his wife Lisa sat a few rows in front of us at the show!

Lagoon and Bear Lake with the Rich Family!

Our dear friends from New Jersey, Mike & Emily and their boys came to Utah for a visit! We got to spend some quality time with them while they were here! We met them at Lagoon and then went to Bear Lake! It was so fun to catch up on each others lives and let our boys play!

Summer Pool Party!

We set up the pool in the backyard and it ended up being a big splash party with my nephews and some of Cavin & Sawyer’s neighbor friends! They had a riot getting each other wet! Cavin is not in any of the pictures because he had the hose the entire time and laughed his head of while he sprayed everyone! Sawyer always has so much fun when there is water involved you can tell by his big smile in all of the pictures. Tate my nephew mostly liked taking a big cup of sand out of the sand table and dumping it into the pool with a big smile on his face!
