Our Garden

We love our garden and have greatly enjoyed the yummy things we have harvested so far!

We are growing:

• Green Bell Peppers
• Tomatoes (picking our first ripe ones today!)
• Anaheim Peppers
• Zucchini (we've had lots of these!)
• Cantaloupe
• Cucumbers (have picked one but it was SUPER bitter...)
• Watermelon
• Butternut Squash
• Pumpkin
• Strawberries (but the ants get them all before us)
• Thai Basil
• Sweet Basil

Caleb loves picking zucchini!

Pioneer Day Parade

We had a good time going to the Salt Lake City Pioneer Day Parade. The kids had a good time even though it was 90 degrees by 9 am! Caleb loved the motorcylce cops and Hallie really enjoyed the bands.

Photo Shoot

It has been so nice outside so I decided to take the kids outside and take a few photos. Caleb wasn't really into it so it ended up being mostly Hallie, but it was fun. Too bad it was so bright they were squinting... we will have to try the shade next time!

Mr. Clean

Caleb loves to help me bake and lately he loves to help clean up! Almost every day he asks to bring a "big chair" over to the sink so he can "a wash ma hands" which really means he wants to wash anything he can find close to the sink. It's pretty fun except for when he gets crazy with the water! These photos are the first time he did this, we had been baking so he was standing at the counter helping me and he turned to the sink and started washing the dishes we had just dirtied!I think he is wondering if he is going to be in trouble...

Front Runner

The Front Runner commuter train here in Utah has a special this summer for four people and $10 you can ride all day. Caleb loves trains so we had to take advantage of it. We rode from Woods Cross (just north of Salt Lake) up to Odgen. We all had a great time and Caleb loved going on a real train! The whole ride he kept pointing out the train tracks and telling us all about them! It was a great fun day trip!

Birthday fun!

I had a great Birthday week this year! My parents, and Tessi drove all the way here to Utah to spend a few days and take us out to a YUMMY dinner at Rodizio Grill! I only have this one photo of the whole weekend, but it was a GREAT one! Thank you mom and dad!

On my actual birthday Nathan had to have some dental work done... but he still made the day very special for me! He even made me a YUMMY dinner! We had friends over and had a great time! Thank you everyone for the wonderful entry to my 23rd year of life!

The kids both fell asleep cuddling me one day, and I thought it was so cute. I had just gotten up from in between them... haha see how little space I get!

Hummus

Caleb REALLY likes hummus! He especially likes if it's homemade, so much that he has to lick his bowl clean!
