First bonfire of the season

The first weekend in June was the first nice weather we had seen in a while so we went up to our friends Tim and Brandi and Elsie's house for a bonfire and yummy banana boats! Carsen was such a good helper with bringing Keith fire wood and helping me make a yummy banana boat treat stuffed with chocolate chips coconut and marshmallows! Thanks for having us over Tim and Brandi! We had a ton of fun!

flying and flooding

The first week in June Keith's uncle cam into town and took Keith and his dad flying over the Cache valley. It was right when a lot of the flooding was going on at full force. Keith loves to fly and had a total blast! Thanks uncle Steve! Here are a few of the pictures that he took. Kinda crazy how much damage water can do.

Memorial day!

I forgot I had these pictures still on my camera :) It was a very very rainy May and June and it of course rained on memorial day so we played outside anyway! Thanks Miss and Joel for letting us come play at your place! Keith and the kids had a blast on these little plasma/wiggle cars! And Carsen had a blast playing baseball with the kids! We all had fun and got soaked!! I think the only ones not to get wet were Miss, Joel and Laini! It's been a while since I have just played in the rain....so much fun!

Popcorn Popping

Carsen has started loving to hear and sing new songs. It is pretty darn cute! Here is a video of him doing the hand movements to "Popcorn Popping on the Apricot tree!" I LOVE how he mouths the words but is trying so hard to focus on his hand movements....cracks me up!!!

P.S. you have to pause the music on the blog to be able to hear the song :) not that you really want to hear me sing anyway :)
He makes us laugh so hard! I love this little man!!! Thank you Carsen for making our life so much fun!

I  know that this is totally a mom thing but I can't help putting both videos on here they are just a little different and both so cute! The blog is for me anyway right :) ha ha

Thinking

I have been toying with the idea lately of going private. Should I or shouldn't I? What to do?!?! I would love to know all your opinions and pros and cons about it!

I haven't had many comments in months so I just wasn't sure if anyone even looked at it. I mean I still do this for me but it is fun to know when other people are out there :)

thanks :)

Bowling!

We took Carsen bowling for the first time when we had Maci come up to stay with us for a few days to play! We love having Maci here! Carsen thinks she is just the greatest!! We did lots of fun things but this seemed to be the only thing I got pictures of and it was with a phone at that! ugh... oh well :) I should be better about always having my camera with me! We decided to take the kids bowling for family night and we all had a blast! Carsen was totally enthralled that there was yet another sport that he could throw balls :) It happened to be galactic that night and he loved that too because the bowling balls would glow! I LOVE watching him discover new things and get so excited about them! Thanks for coming to play Maci! We love you!!! come up again soon ok :)

p.s. these pics were taken june 3rd 2011

Smile!!

Lately when I ask Carsen to show me his teeth (usually when I am brushing them) he gives me these cutest cheesers! I love it!!! That smile just melts my heart! He has now figured out to say "cheese" when we hold up a camera or a phone! It is pretty hilarious, most of the time he will say cheese but not actually smile, so if I say "let me see your teeth" I usually get a cute little dimple smile! He has got to be the funniest little kid I know! I love love love him!!!!
