Our little BYU fan!

We found this hat for Connor and he loves it! Usually he won't leave hats on but this one is different- Sure makes his daddy proud :)

More Yellowstone pictures

Yellowstone Trip Part one-

We had a great time on our trip to Yellowstone! We saw lots of wildlife and Sydney even earned her Jr. Ranger badge. It was kind of fun when we went to the ranger station after she had done all of the requirements, the ranger got every ones attention in the building and had a little ceremony for her. We did have a few things happen like Sydney got sick one night and so we spent the night on the bathroom floor. Which I hate doing at home, let alone in a hotel room, we, well I, lost the car keys. We all jumped out to see a moose and somehow they fell out of my coat into the sagebrush. After searching for a while- we finally found them! Thank goodness because I was not looking forward to spending a night under the stars! We made lots of memories and saw some amazing things that this wonderful earth has to offer!

Road Trip Idea

So on our recent road trip to Yellowstone I knew I had to be prepared with things to entertain my kids. So first I started with four pringles cans:



Next I covered them with cute road trip paper (optional of course :) Filled them with snacks, activities, coloring pages, puzzle pages, etc.



Now I had four cans, one for each hour we were going to be on the road, that would be easy to pack, a surprise for my kids and they were a big success!!

Back to School

Sydney has started back to preschool again! She has a great teacher and very fun kids on her class. When I picked her up after her first day, I said "Syd, how was it?" she said "Oh mom, it was awesome!" So hopefully we are in for a good year! Love ya Syd :)

Just had to post it

Ryan taught this to Connor. Hopefully it won't have lasting effects but we sure get a kick out of it!

Our Summer

My pictures are completely out of order but we have had a busy July. Ryan and I both celebrate our birthdays in July and with all the other holidays we did a lot of celebrating. Having fun and making memories with our family was by far the best!



Threw snowballs at Snowbird in the 24th of July!


Rode the tram to the top at Snowbird.

We have enjoyed lots of Popsicles.


We had so much fun at snowbird. I have so many fond memories growing up going to Snowbird and it was fun to have my kids there!


Sydney completed two sessions of swimming lessons and did such a great job!


We enjoyed the mountains at Deer Valley over the Forth and got to go horse back riding!


We had fun with Ryan's family over the Fourth of July in Park City!
