growing dino's!

So, we all went to target this morning and Owen took the kids through the dollar section and picked out the growing dinosaurs in little pill capsules. The kids loved them and had a really fun time growing their own dinosaurs. Bo liked to poke them to speed up the process and Rylee just liked them when they were fully grown.

Happy Birthday Dad

It was Owens dad Jeff's birthday yesterday and I forgot to post it and wish him a happy birthday! Happy Birthday Dad, we love you!

Harry Potter

6. Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
I just have to say, that was a really good book! I have only read this book out of all the other 6 that are out. Everyone told me what happened in this book, so I felt it necessary to read and find out for myself! Anyway, if you know me, you know this is a BIG deal for me since I don't read a whole lot. This was probably the 7th book that I have read in my entire life. It took me a little over 3 days to read it, with the house to keep up, mouths to feed and kids to take care of. I had a really hard time putting it down in fear that I would not ever finish it! (: Anyway, I can't wait til the 7th comes out in paper back so I can read it as well and get a heads up before the movie comes out.

Congratulations!

CONGRATULATIONS to my wonderful sister and brother in law Rachael and Luke Park! They just found out they are going to have a baby BOY! That is so awesome!!! We are so happy for you both, we love you! (:

Dredded family pictures!

Yesterday, we went to St. George to get our family pictures taken. Why is it, that when it's time for family pictures, nothing turns out the way it's suppose to? For instance, I left Owens Tie at home, couldn't find Kodi's hair bow and I didn't feel all that cute. I feel really bad too, because our kids were awful! Poor Miriam had to try so hard to take the pictures when my kids weren't crying, running around or just being little stinkers. Thanks for putting up with us by the way Miriam! Anyway, I think some turned out cute!
After pictures, Jana and Brad got a babysitter and we went out to dinner to Red Lobster and then drove home.

Geo Cache

While we were at the dunes, we all decided to go do a few Geo cache's. The first one was only a mile from camp, so we walked to it. The kids thought it was great "treasure hunting"! The second one was about a 3 mile ride to the general area it was in, so we road the 4 wheelers.

Little Sahera Dunes

This conference weekend, we all went to the "Little Sahera" sand dunes in Utah with Owens family. We usually go for Easter, but this year it didn't happen. The kids had so much fun playing in the sand and spending time with their cousins and grandparents.
(Bo, Rylee, Ashlyn and Alora)
The kids playing with all their toys in the sand. My kids didn't like taking off their helmits to often.

Bo and anything with wheels... He didn't like to be off any kind of TOY! Can you say, ALL BOY? (;
Grandpa Freeman, always fixing something! (:

Our dogs enjoying the cool sand.
Cool Rylee... Ready to go for a ride!
Bo's favorite person... Grandpa!
Goofy Grandpa pulled the kids around in a laundry basket with his 4 wheeler.

Dad's version of bath time


The other day, I told Owen to throw the kids in the bath and clean them up. Of course, he did what he was asked, than he decided it would be fun to put the rat in with them! Ya.... GROSS!!!! He said that he thought it would be easier for me and take one chore off of my list to throw the rat in with them, since I have to give her a scrub down too! What a helpful husband, don't you think?At least they are all clean! (:

I'm a slave!

jail

The past few days, I feel like I'm a slave to my home. I live in a prison cell and there is no room for anything! There is NO room for any of our things and we still have half of our belongings in Utah. I haven't been able to leave or do much of anything this week, except CLEAN, CLEAN, take care of the kids and Owen and did I already mention CLEAN?! I have been getting us ready to go to the sand dunes in Utah, making sure bills are paid and that the kids don't kill themselves in the process! Every time I go out of town, I have to make sure my house is spotless so that when I come home with a mess, I don't add on top of the other mess! I think I inherited that from my mom, cause I found out that my older sister does the same thing. lol Anyway, I'm done venting, thanks for listening! (:
