Baseball and Water Games!

Yesterday was Dave's day off, so we decided every Thursday we would take the kids to the pool, they absolutely love it! After we got back from the pool, we had a message from Laina, come play in the sprinklers! Since we were already in swimsuits, we thought hey let's go have fun with all our friends too! The kids loved that as well, isn't summer nice to get together?! So here's some pictures from that, its been so wonderful being outside even thought its hot!











Wednesday we got a call from Carla asking if we wanted to go to a Bee's game, David was *super* excited (he even brought his mitt, what a dork! haha) and we all thought it would be fun to ride the tracks, Maddie loved the train. She kept saying "we're going fast"--it was way cute! It was a beautiful night and we had a great time, nothing compares to the atmosphere of a ballgame, so fun!

Even Sam watched for awhile!

Getting a little bored

And he's OUT!


And just a side note, today I was putting a pillow on my couch and noticed something fly up to the side of the window, it looked weird so I took a closer look. It was a BAT! Isn't that so weird?!?! So my house is now officially very creepy! haha But we did get the coolest stroller, its called a sit 'n stand, you'll need one once you get past one or two kids, all three of mine fit in it and its quite awesome! So I took it to the mall today to have lunch with Dave, today was a nice day too! What a great week!

A Day for Taggs

So, I am bored and after looking through several of my friends blogs, I've noticed there is quite a fun tagg going on, and although no one tagged me, I am doing it! haha I thought this tagg was different and fun, so here's mine!

I still can't get over how wonderful a dishwasher is--hallelujah!



#3-the Toilet:
There it is in all its glory, by some miracle the lid was down!

Tagg #2

The rules:
1. Pick up the nearest book (at least 123 pages).
2. Turn to page 123.
3. Find the 5th sentence.
4. Post the 5th sentence on your blog.
5. Tag 5 people.



This book is Atonement. I just finished it last night, it was good but please don't read it--some language in there! Anyway, 5th sentence on page 123 is:

It came down to this: go in now and face her anger and disgust, give an explanation which would not be accepted, and most likely be turned away--unbearable humiliation; or go home now without a word, leaving the impression that the letter was what he intended, be tortured all night and for days to come by brooding, knowing nothing of her reaction--even more unbearable.

There it is! Now I tag:
1. Kristie
2. Kerrilyn
3. Laina
4. Tamsyn
5. Delee

Family Pictures

Today was Dave's day off, so we made some exciting plans! Well, atleast to me, probably no one else in my family was excited, but I was! So, since Sam is growing so fast and changing so much, I wanted to take some family pictures. We just went to a park around here, where I take a lot of pictures. It was still fun, and I really like a lot of the shots we got. Even though I took around 100 pictures, I still want more! haha So here are some of my fav's, I didn't want to put a ton up, but I like so many! Hope you enjoy!
