July 2014

4th of July

 I did Eisley's hair in a star.
 Pictures with cousins before the parade! Carter, Grant, Ashton, Link, Corgin, Brielle, Emmy and Eisley, Ali, Addi, Lilly, and Pierce.
 Carter, Grant, Ashton, Link, Corgin, Pierce, Bri, Emmy and Eisley, Ali, Addi, and Lilly.
 My three little munchkins!
 1 minute before I took this picture he said, "I'm not tired!"
 

More July

 The boys did swimming lessons. Here's Corgin.
 Played some more with cousins. Eisley, Pierce, Corgin, Link, Grant, and Addi.
 Clint surprised me with a new diamond ring for our 10 year anniversary.
 Here is the garden we planted earlier in the year.
 I found Eisley sleeping like this one night.
 Another day like this for a nap.
 Eisley and Corgin.
 Eisley got to come ride in the swather with me.
 She rode most of the time like this.
Link got to ride too. He loves riding in the tractors and swathers.

June 2014

And here's June!
 
 Here's Eisley ready for church one day.
 More warm summer days playing in the pool!
 
 And laying in the sun!
 The boys wanted their hair colored and Grandma Kristi had some Halloween hairspray so we let them put it on. They thought it was pretty cool.
 
 Clint built us a fire pit for our back yard. We love it!
 
 Eisley found the toy gun and again Link's old boots.
 The boys were so proud of the cardboard house they made for Olly.
 I spent some time working on the farm.
 

Father's Day

 The kids decorated ties for their dads in Primary. Clint was a good sport and wore his.

 More June

 Eisley found a hat.
 Enjoying our fire pit.
 Had an eventful day at Alexander. We were unloading the jet skis and Kristi and I jumped on. Then the boys jumped on with us. Somehow I ended up on the two seater with Corgin. I hate the two seater because it is so easy to tip. And that's exactly what I did. I tipped it with Corgin and I on it without any life jackets. We were blessed that day. Blesssed that Corgin and I were okay and that I didn't ruin Brent and Kristi's jet ski since it sat upside down in the water for a long time. And lesson learned.... ALWAYS WEAR A LIFE JACKET, and don't let me drive the two seater.
 

Yellowstone

We took a few days and went to the cabin in Island Park. We took one of those days and spent it at Yellowstone.
 Eisley waiting for Old Faithful.
 Link waiting for Old Faithful.
 Corgin waiting for Old Faithful.
 Riding in the car.
 Checking out the mud and paint pots.
 Linkoln and Corgin.
 Eisley.
 My boys!
 Then as we were driving out of the park and maybe even complaining a bit about not seeing many animals, we were stopped and a huge herd of bison and their babies walked by on the road.

 More Pictures!

 I did some more farming.
 Kids did some more playing!
 Clint rigged up a sprinkler for the trampoline.
 The kids had so much fun with it all summer.

May 2014

Our May was pretty eventful. Here are some pictures!
 Olly got fixed. And yes, he had to wear the cone of shame.
 

Vegas Getaway

Clint and I celebrated our 10 year anniversary a little early this year and went to Vegas. I'd never been, so I thought it was fun! We saw a lot of places that I'd only seen in movies.
 At Caesar's Palace.
 
 The Bellagio Fountains.
 
 Eiffel Tower.
 
 Spiderman saved me at the wax museum.
 Saw the M&M store. (That red guy looks a little creepy)
 We rented a car and drove to Hoover Dam.
 
 We saw some cool things at the Shark Reef.
 Then we walked down Fremont Street. We saw Herby,
 the Batmobile,
 and Bumblebee. We also ate at the Bachanal and the best place was Nora's, a little hole in the wall Italian resteraunt off the strip. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed our time together.
 

Corgin's Kindergarten Graduation

We got home and that week Corgin graduated from Kindergarten!
 

 More May Pictures

 We planted a garden. The kids had more fun playing in the dirt than anything.
 Olly got a haircut.
 The boys enjoyed a nice warm day laying in the sun
 and playing in the sprinkler.
 Link
 Corgin
 More warm days playing in the water!
 
 

 Clint's Birthday!

 Clint had a birthday and got a new smoker. He loves it!
 

More May

 Eisley buckled herself in the Bumbo and couldn't get out, so she just walked around like this.
 Another nice day. We went to my Mom's and met Mikki there and let the kids play. Here's Eisley and Emery.
 Corgin, Eisley, and Emery.
 Eisley insisted on taking her drink in the pool.
I think these girls know how to relax in the pool. They've got their drinks, their chairs, and their feet in the water to stay cool.
 
And that was our May!
