Part of the Alkatraz Prision



Pete and I just celebrated our 3 year Anniversary this past Friday June 20th. I cant believe has time flys =D He had a great surprise planned all out for me but by the time it came around I pretty much kne weverything he had planned. He had a plane flight and hotel room set for San Fransisco on our Anniversary. His parents would be picking up the kids and keeping them for the weekend. He had planned on taking me from work to go to lunch and not coming back. All in all it pretty much worked about the same.. I just knew it all. We had sooo much fun. I had a lot of first also.. First taxi, trolley, dark alley, alkatraz, Golden Gate Bridge, walk through a real city, saw some sea lions, ate some alligator, Golden Gate Park. Saturday was hot and we did some shopping and went to Fishermans Wharf. We ate at a cute little place for breakfast with GREAT weather. Then onto a little cruise that went under the GOlden Gate Bridge and Around Alkatraz ( I love the movie the Rock). Sunday was cold and we mostly walked around the Golden Gate park ( I was mostly locals and the sceanery was amzing) from Saturday to Sunday it seemed almost like 2 seperate vacations. I cant believe my husband planned all this on his own and Im soo glad he did. And I soo thankful for my in laws and how much they help watch the boys (They even took them to the circus..which im a bit jealous over =D )

Happy Fathers Day!!!

Happy Fathers Day (One day later) to all your wonderful dads out there. I want to say I LOVE holidays like this when you stop to realise how great family is and how great our fathers and husbands are. Im so greatful to have wonderful men in my life. Pete is such and amazing dad to my boys and I couldnt be happier. Heres a few pictures of this special day!

Weekend With The Cousins..

This weekend Petes Sister was down from California so we pretty much spent the weekend at his parnets house. The boys had soo much fun playing with the cousins as usual. We took them to a park that had water and later walked the outlet Mall. By the end of the night they were exhausted and needless to say we all got a great nights rest.

Mtns. Edge Hike

I keep wanting to do the Mtns Edge hike with Pete and the boys. Leshal however had a night away from Brandon so we decided we would test it out first =D It was lots of fun and parts were definately a good work out, better than jogging the neighborhood anyday! It was a fun workout along with fun to hang out with my sister. We talked and talked and talked, came home and talked more. Were going to try to make it a regualr thing we do. Anyone who hasnt tried it should, but I wouldnt reccomend bringing a stroller, let the little ones walk or pack the real little ones in a snuggle thing. =D

Saturday Night

Saturday night was fun. Alisha had a date (Singles ward did like a prom night) so we got to do her hair all fun. We werent sure Celestial would be over in time but luckily she showed up in time becuase I was clueless about what we could do with her hair. So while Leshals huried we all hung out (Sheree, Alisha, Celestial and I). Leshal only had about 30-40 min to do it so we think It turned out pretty good, and Alisha loved it.. The boys were off in the other room watching the fight. Then we joined them. Jaiden and Rylan always think there a part of it and take off their shirts and fight and wrestle too but this time they were worn out from the pool earlier and dozed off. Here a picture of them relaxing and one of Rylan cuddling Jaiden after Jaiden fell asleep =D

Time for Swimming

This was our first REAL swim of the summer, besides the Jacuzzi. The boys had a great time and Jaiden is all for it. He thinks he can swim and do everything all by himself. Although thats not quit right, he needs a little help and he CANT wander off like he likes. Ry on the other had did not want to leave our side which was great!! It was pretty packed their though So I hope we can find a different pool because Saturdays are really the only day we can take them and of course that doesnt help =( if not we dont mind too much and well be out swimming again.

Brotherly LOVE

The other day around bedtime the boys were playing in their room and I noticed it was QUIET..ODD =D.. So when I go to check it out, this is what I Found...




TOO AODRABLE.. Jaiden is such a big brother and always watching out for Rylan (Except when their fighting of course) But hes a great brother and big helper.

Last game of the season =(

Jaiden had his last soccer game of the season. Hes a little bummed and wants to sign up again and Pete of course agrees. I however dont know about summer league and our busiest time of the year.. so well see. We may just have to miss out on a few practice or games if its too much =D Soo heres a few pictures of his last game and at the little party after with his trophy (Which by the way he has slept with everynight since he got it).
