Knott's Soak City...

Every year my sister's and I go to Knott's Soak City and it's sooo much fun! My kids LOVE it and it's really pretty easy to take them since they are playing with their cousins the whole time! The only thing missing was my sister Meghan and her kids! :(

Gifts for my sister's new baby...

How fun would it be to get all of this in the mail! I just finished making it for my sister and her new baby Lilly! You can take a closer look at these things on my craft blog! Love you Meghan!! :)

A visit to St. George and Salt Lake...

The girls and I drove to St. George to visit Rob's family. When we first got there, Robert's brother scott and his wife and kids were there. My girls were so excited to see them; they had to leave the next day and my kids were really sad to have their cousin Allie leave them! The first night we got there, the girls made a tower out of ice cream cones and icing.
A few days later (with the help Robert's mom and sisters) I was able to go see Meghan have her 3rd baby. I drove as fast as I could and thought that I would for sure miss the whole thing, but I got there at 11:30 and her baby wasn't born until 3:30. Meghan had an adorable baby girl named Lilly; she's so sweet and Meghan looked beautiful of course! :)

I drove back from Salt Lake the next day and when I got back to St. George we all went to see Tarzan at the Tuachan theater. It was so unbelievably amazing and Taylor loved it!!

It was such a fun trip! I also went to St. George because Michelle's boyfriend just came home from his mission and we might have spied on him at the airport and spied on him a few times at his house. :) It was so much fun and they are so cute together. :)

Taylor turns 6!!

Thankfully there is a pool where we live right now and so I decided that an easy party for Taylor would be a pool party. I've pretty much done that almost every year since she was born because it's soo hot in July. We had so much fun! My two sisters, Mom, Dad and Grandpa were all able to be there too, which was the best!! Thanks to everyone who came, Taylor felt very special! :)

A VERY busy July!!

July is always soo busy. It's Robert and Taylor's birthday and it's our anniversary. I will be gone on our anniversary this year so I decided to surprise Rob with going to a hotel in downtown San Diego. He thought we were just going out to dinner, but then after dinner I gave him a card and told him to pretend he was on the bachelor (just not dating 13 other girls) :) It said if he would like to forgo a room at my parents house than he could enjoy the fantasy suite with me at the Hotel Solemar. (for all of you bachelor lovers out there, you understand the card) and of course rob knew since he watches the bachelor with me! (sorry rob!) He was so excited and thanks to my parents we were able to have such a great time with no kids!

this is our room, it's such a cute hotel!
The next day we woke up at 9:45 (which was the best thing in the whole world) and went for a run to seaport village and ate breakfast. Then got ready at the hotel and stopped by Old Town before we got back to real life. It was sooo much fun celebrating his birthday and our anniversary!
The day we got back from the hotel happened to be Taylor's birthday so she opened a few presents and we went out for her birthday to Fuddruckers, then we were off to see the Shrek movie.
I cannot believe that i have a 6 year old! what is going on here :)
The girls and I getting goody bags ready for Taylor's pool party coming up!

Grace's Cast is off!

Grace finally got her cast off and what's wierd is she actually wasn't too happy about it. I think she kind of liked it! but i'm really happy it's off and I'm sure Olivia is too so people won't keep asking how she broke it! (since she is the one who pushed her off the trampoline!) :)

4th of July

Okay so this is a little late but we had a great 4th of July!! On Saturday we went swimming with our friends the Deckers, then got together with them on Sunday for a bbq and some fireworks! We had so much fun!!

My sister Jill and her family got here on Sunday, so we were able to spend monday, Tuesday and Wednesday with them at my parents house. We had a great time with them and we are so excited that they are moving here! On wednesday Taylor and I woke up early to get surgery on her tongue. She is tongue-tied, which is too hard to explain, but she had to get surgery at my dad's office. She was very brave and I'm so glad it's over!!
