Busy, Busy, Busy

Last Tuesday we all headed down to the valley to stay with Aunt Riley :) Dev had JPE's the next day and my grandma was flying in from Colorado for my great-grandma Wallis' 90th birthday. It is a rare occasion that my family gets together so I was pretty excited... we went to dinner with them at Red Lobster [YUM] Wednesday... came back to Riley's and went bowling. Deagan had a blast... I had fun too besides the fact that I did TERRIBLE!! Thursday morning we went to breakfast with my family and then headed up the mountain to Snowflake. We were going to spend a little time with family up there and do some canning for our year supply!

BOWLING


Little Deagy... what a stud.


Getting some help from Daddy :)


Silly Boys.


Our little family.


The final score... I wasn't kidding when I said I did terrible... I beat Deagan by 2 points?! And this was only the first game... I did even worse on the second one. We should have a rematch, after I practice a little... then we will see who wins!



Poor Treyden was pooped.


Deagan and Great-Grandma Wallis... I love this picture.

The rest of these are just random pictures I took of the boys throughout the week. I love these boys.... these silly little boys.

Aww... don't you just love that smile?? Our little Treyden is getting so big. He is sitting up on his own pretty good now and rolling and scooting all over... he will be crawling before we know it.


Me and my boys.


Sweet brotherly love.

Kisses.

And this would be all of our hard work... 36 bottles to be exact.... half chicken, half green beans (picked by hand I might add) Now times that by four... and that is how much canning we did this weekend?!

We were pretty busy. But we had a lot of help, and it wasn't all for us. I actually really enjoy canning, especially when there are a lot of people to help! And it is such a good feeling to know that we are a little prepared... Thanks Grandma and Grandad for letting us use your pressure cookers! So, we had a pretty good week. It is always nice to spend time with family. We miss them all so much over here...

As for this week... who knows....

Fun Week

The pool has been a big hit... we use it almost everyday. I feel much better about it now that we have a safety lock on the back door. Deagan had Castin and Tanner come over last Wednesday to try it out. I think they had fun...

That was the highlight of the week. Thanks boys for coming over and playing... come again soon!

For the weekend we went down to the valley on Saturday so I could my hair done... and while I did that Dev and the boys went to Sportman's. Deagan LOVES it there... why? Well, because

they have little carts just his size. He loads his cart up with whatever he likes... so while he loaded it as quick as he could and Dev unloaded it just as fast... after that they went to a couple other places. Then, it was time to come back and get me and we all went to lunch at Peter Piper Pizza... While Deagan drove the cars... which is pretty much the ONLY thing he does there, Dev and I got hooked on the Deal or no Deal game... I actually only played once and let Treyden pick my case, and I won 200 tickets!! Imagine if it was the real deal, Dev and I would be millionaires! Ha. Thanks Treyden, good choice. So, we ate pizza and used up all our tokens and then we traded in all our tickets for a couple of cheap toys that Deagan has already broken... And we headed home. It was a fun Saturday... Deagan and I especially loved it... I got to relax and get my hair done and he got to go crazy with his Daddy and his brother...

Then it was church on Sunday. Doesn't Deagan looked so thrilled to be going??
