Week in Review...

MONDAY
GOOD OL' CHUCK O RAMA

Dinner with some of the Fam - Grandma Great's treat, so she got to choose the place!
Thank you - it was fun!
HOGI YOGI & JUMP ON IT

We spent Labor day with the family and we ate lunch together at Hogi Yogi and we played at Jump On It!

Those dang candy machines!...

Merry - go -round


I think Sean was having more fun than the kids!


Toddler area.

Big bouncy slide.




SUNDAY
FAMILY PICNIC & CHURCH

We enjoyed the cooler weather on Sunday evening and ate outside in the yard.

On our way to church.







FRIDAY
SOCCER
A bunch of us girls have been playing indoor soccer for the past 5 months or so and I have to say it is so much fun! These pictures are pretty lame, but I wanted to put them on here anyway. We are the team in black.






THURSDAY
NANA VISIT

Sean's mom came to visit from North Carolina for the 4 day weekend. It is always a treat to have Nana here!



Sean made his monster burgers and the kids loved his grilled corn on the cob!
She made clay beads and bracelet's with the kids.
And, took them to the mall and spoiled them with prizes!






THURSDAY

GIRLS NIGHT


We went out with the girls and ate at Red Robin and got some yummy ice cream cake to celebrate Tiff and Jess's Birthdays! Then we went and saw "Mama Mia"! I wish we had girls nights more often!!
Melody, Becky, Lisa

Tiffany, Heather, Jessica






WEDNESDAY

WARD LUAU

Our ward has a tradition of doing a luau at the Bishops house once a year and it is so much fun! Our neighbors bring there band and play Polynesian music and have hula dancers.
And, there back yard is the funnest place around. They have a whole village of little buildings like this for there kids to play in along with a cool play ground.

They even have a snowie machine - that was a big hit!

My dad helped serve up the Kahlua Pork.
The kids went swimming,
played in the splash fountain, and

went down the slide!
I couldn't resist taking a picture of our next door neighbors in their matching luau outfits!!
Me and my Mama.

I wish this was our back yard!!




TUESDAY

MEAJA BABY SHOWER

We made s'mores too - messy, messy!

Afterwards we had our own family Olympic relay races!

Just chillin on the porch playing cards on a Saturday morning with the kiddos in their pj's still!
My kids spend so much time on the counter "helping" me!

GAME NIGHT

SO LONG SIERRA


We had a couple of farewell parties for our super duper friend Sierra before she and her family moved away to Michigan. We will miss you...







POOL PLAY

Playin' in the front yard!







CAMDEN BIRTHDAY


We went to Camden's Birthday party and it got pretty rainy and windy!

I couldn't find the kids during the rain, I found them under the table! What smarts kids!







SWIM LESSONS
Brynn finally took some swimming lessons. It is about time. She learned to doggy paddle on her second lesson and hasn't turned back. It has been so great! She loves her lessons and not having to wear a life jacket anymore in the pool!




Meanwhile, William waits for Brynn to be done!








SLEEPING BEAUTY

No joke, Sean went to tuck Brynn in the other night and found her dead asleep with her mask on...







TREATS

The kids helped me make some fun treats on a stick a week or two ago.
It was lots of fun and lots of mess...

Then we went to deliver them to the neighbors...
and ended up at Grammy's house, to share some with them too!
