Memorial Day Rollar Blading

What ever happened to rollarblading you ask?....nothing! :)

It is SO MUCH FUN!

Everyone reading this needs to whip out the old rollarblades and give 'em a nice ride!

We went on the Jordan River Trail

that goes behind Thanksgiving Point

(Melissa, remember our fun memories on this trail?!)

It was BEAUTIFUL!

Afterward, we ate lunch at a park.
Fun! Fun! Fun!

bugs and bubbles

Aren't we all loving this beautiful weather?! It has been so nice being able to get outside and do some of our favorite things...that we LONG for during the cold months! This particular evening we did two of Alexa's FAVORITE things! It felt so good to be outside even though it was a little bit rainy! Summer rain is the best...as long as there isn't too much of it!

Another fun thing Alexa has been enjoying is collecting bugs--mainly potato bugs--to put in her bug box! She and her friends do this the whole time while they play, and Daddy was doing it with her in the picture.

Tyler's Fire Pit

One thing Tyler really wanted to do in our backyard was make a fun little firepit!...He finished it, and we finally used it for the first time! My brother Jeff, Amber, Jade, Tyler's sis Alisha, Ronnie, and Nathan came over to help us try it out! We went on a fun little bikeride, roasted hotdogs, and made smores! We had a good time!

Thursday = Park with Emily day!

My good friend Emily and I decided to meet at the park every other week to just catch up and chit-chat, and it is great because our kids are able to have some fun at the park at the same time! I love that we are able to do this! I look forward to it every time!
Emily's little boy Andrew (above) and Karli (below) are only a couple of months apart...SO CUTE!
Alexa brought her friend Chloe with us to the park so that she had a friend her age to play with!...also SO CUTE!

A Little Sun and Water

We took advantage of the HOT day a few days ago by playing in some WATER in our backyard! We had a great time! I know the pool looks tiny (we probably need to get a bigger one), but the girls had a blast out there!...There is just something about SUN and WATER...it's the perfect mix! I LOVE IT!

Tyler is THIRTY

We celebrated Tyler's birthday by making him a birthday breakfast, meeting him for his lunch break at Wheeler Farm (since he works only a couple of minutes away!), and getting babysitters for the kiddos so that we could go out for the evening---Cafe Rio and the movie State of Play!

We love you Tyler! Have the BEST year being OLD and THIRTY! :)

Alexa and Tyler...Happy Birthday!

We had a Birthday Fiesta for Alexa and Tyler with the Shelley's and the Krommenhoek's! We ate Mexican style, played soccer, hit the pinata, had ice cream cake...sang Happy Birthday , and opened presents! We all had a really good time!

Look at ME...I'm THREE!

We celebrated Alexa's birthday as a family in the morning before Tyler left to work! She opened presents and had a birthday breakfast! She had a GREAT DAY! She felt so special, and enjoyed all the presents and treats. She feels so proud to tell people she is THREE...so old!

We love our sweet and silly Alexa!
