Target

Londyn and Ryanne sippin' on some lemonade at Target! They are having a good time hainging out together (except when they are fighting over a toy or my mom)! Too bad we don't all live closer together! = (

Playing at the park!

On our way to the park we stopped for ice cream.

I stole some of my dad's pictures so I could do a post. This is a view of the lake at the new park by my parent's house.

Londyn sliding.

My brother Sheldon and his little girl Ryanne and Londyn.

I'm not in Utah anymore......!

Wednesday afternoon Londyn and I flew to Louisiana. Immediately after stepping off the plane, I could tell we were not in Utah anymore! There was an instant blast of heat and humidity. Londyn's hair curled almost right away! It was actually nice though, since it was cold and rainy when we left SLC. Then when I was watching the local news that night, they devoted 10 minutes of the sports segment to the upcoming squirrel hunting season! It was absolutely disgusting! I thought, where the heck am I?!?!?
(Thurs.) Today was nice. It wasn't as hot and there was a breeze. My mom and I took Londyn swimming this morning. And after dinner we took her to this new park by the lake. It was awesome! There is a playground and a fountain, picnic areas, trails, and a boardwalk by the water. And with the weather being nice it was so fun. I've been taking pictures but I don't have a way to download them, so I'll post them next week when I'm home.

Weekend in Boise

On our way to Boise we stopped in Brigham City at Maddox's for lunch. Londyn entertained herself by putting cabbage down her straw into her water glass. I think she gets her creativity from her dad!!
We stayed at a nice hotel right by the BSU campus. After a yummy breakast the 1st morning we went hottubbing. It was so cold outside! While I was getting ready Londyn patiently waited and read her new "potty" book!
This is the spring game (the reason we were in Boise). That's my brother Caleb, #81. (yes the turf is blue, its called "smurf turf!)
The other reason we were in Boise was to have celebrate my grandparents anniversary. They love Mexican food so we reserved a banquet room at a Mexican restaurant and had a P-A-R-T-Y!

Last Ski Weekend

On Friday night we went to Park City to stay with Cody's Parents for the weekend. Saturday morning, me, Cody, his brother and his fiance, and his dad skiied together and had a blast. Then Cody's mom brought Londyn at noon and we all had lunch and then took a couple runs with Londyn. She thinks skiing with Cody is the greatest thing ever. Everytime he would stop she would say "more, more." By 2:00 we were all exhausted so we sat in the hot tub for a while and headed home for naps! Then the boys went to the priesthood sesssion and the girls went to dinner.




Londyn's day of excitment and late nap totally threw her schedule off and she was up almost the whole night! Uh! Thank goodness Sunday was conference so we could lounge around all day. I loved all of the talks on Sunday and think President Monson is going to be a wonderful prophet!

Bowling

We also did some bowling this weekend at Fat Cats. Londyn and Cody sported the plaid. Her upper lip is all red because she's had really bad allergies all week so her nose has been running. And that's Averie cheering us on- about to lose her pants!

Backyard Adventures- Day 2

Soooo, this weekend we rented a tiller. It was awesome. Except we had to take the 1st one back becuase it wasn't powerful enough to cut through the concrete, I mean dirt! Londy was pretty good It was cold, so she just hung out in her stoller for a long time and ate some blue chalk! Ahhhh! The tiller made such a huge difference. We were able to rake and smooth out the dirt just the way we wanted it. Next step- Sprinklers and concrete.

Easter Sunday

Londyn's Easter basket.


She was sooo excited about her basket of goodies. Of course she went straight for the chocolate (that's my girl!)

All ready for church.

Easter afternoon at my Aunt's house in Sugar House. It was a perfect, low key day. We ate our ham dinner outside and then let the kids play while we sat in the sun!

Before and After

This is what this side of the yard looked like when we started.

This is what is looked like a few hours later. (The pictures don't really do it justice).
We are basically going to have 2 different levels in the yard. An upper level for the patio and a small grassy area, and a lower level for the big yard and a garden. It's going to be a big project. We'll post pictures as we go!

Backyard Adventures

Cody driving the bobcat off the trailer and into the backyard. ( I was really scared. That thing was shaking like crazy!)

Londyn in I on the "hill" or what will one day be the hill for the slide!!

Chrissy and Christian, A.K.A slave labor! Actually, Cody's little bro and his fiance. We couldn't have done it without their help. We worked from 9am-11:00pm, and they were there for most of that time. I think we filled that trailer with 17 loads of dirt. Cody brought us the dirt and we moved it around to fill up the whole trailer, then we dumped it. Each cycle took about a 1/2 hour.

"MooMoo"

So Londyn started a new thing. She likes being in just a diaper or naked! (Sorry Chris and Tara!) So this afternoon I found this little night gown that I bought for her last fall for this summer. And showed her the "ice cream shirt" and she LOVED it! I thought she looked like an old lady in a moo moo! Oh, and she loves her new flip-flops and sunglasses!

St. Patrick's Day

Londyn enjoying her Leprechaun Punch!

The story behind "Leprechaun Punch." When I was in kindergarten my teachers gave us Leprechaun Punch on St. Patrick's Day. They told us that if we were "true" leprechauns, that we would slowly start to shrink. I was convinced my fingers were shrinking!

Make a free ecard - it's easy!

Double Trouble

Best Buddies!

Averie came over to play today while her mom ran some errands. I was getting ready and I thought they were
being sooooo good. When I came out....

....I found that they had gotten into a box of nursing pads! Looks like fun, huh?!

Londyn's talent

We should have entered Londyn.
She has really mad dance skills!
