June

 We had been having so much fun this summer! Here are some of our adventures. Calvi got a black eye in nursery. That is what you get for playing super heros with your friend and dont see the garbage can. He thought it was cool.

 Jodi found out how to climb out of her crib so we put her into a big girl bed. The first few nights she didn't really get the whole bed thing and we would find here here by her door wanting to come out and eventually falling asleep. She is now a pro and loves the bed.

 Calvi is still lovin the bike some days his bike is a bike some days it can be a train or an airplane. He is pretty creative with it.

 Calvi has also found a new intrest in air planes. He went to the airport museum in Rexburg with Tyler and he loved it. Now he can spot them in the air and lets everyone know about it.

 One rainy day calvi came to me and said mom I want a super hero cape. So like any awesome mom we made it happen. Not only did calvi get a new outfit but so did Max!

 Jodi loves the water!  She loves going to the splash park and runs around more than calvi.

 This is what calvi likes to do. He will play in the water for a bit then run and sit by us to get warm.

 My little sister has now moved far far away to Maryland it is sad but before she left we got a few fun times in. They came to visit one last time in Rexburg and we played at the park. Thanks to aunt jilly calvi loves to spin on the swings.

 Here we are after we packed most of the stuff up for them to go. We love the buffets! Where else can the kids get cotton candy and cookies on a stick for lunch!

 Here is grandpa and Gubby. He is so cute and has an awesome smile!

 Here is our truck with just some of the things that we brought back that jill could not take with them. Brooke and I had a HUGE yard sale for her it was really fun but we did have a ton to sell.

 Tysen was able to come hang out with us for a few days and we had so much fun. As you can see he is awesome with the kids and they love to have him here. He is such a great help.

 Jilly made this awesome jungle gym and the kids have had so much fun with it. We drilled some holes in it to make it a water gym. These guys have loved to play in the water. We have just had so much fun outside in this wonderful weather this summer.  More picts will come of all our adventures!

May

 So May has been a little crazy for us. We have all been sick in some way or other and there has not been 1 day this whole month that all of us have been well at the same time! Ya I am pretty tired of it all but we did manage to get out and get some fresh air.  It did rain a lot this month and the kids had fun playing in the rain they got super wet but it was really fun for them.

 Since we have been inside a lot when there is a nice day the kids just want to be outside. Here they are reading books in our tent we made.

 For mothers day weekend we were able to go visit our family in twin. We had fun seeing everyone and playing at our grandparents house. We had a fun bbq with tys family and my whole family was able to be home to talk to my brother Andy. This is the last time we all got to talk to him cause he is coming home August 27th!!!

 Here is one of all the kids it is getting harder to take good picts of all these guys.

 We also had fun riding horses with Grandpa.

 Just hangin on the fence waiting for our turn to ride.

 Calvis new thing is riding a bike! My mom found a bike and we took it home and put some training wheels on it and he just took off! It is so crazy to think he is big enough to ride a big guy bike and he loves it. He has ridden it most days since we got it. We all went on a family bike ride to the park and he had so much fun and was so proud he was able to do it!

 The kids have likes to just play in the front yard we find all kinds of random stuff to do out there.

 Jodi is such a little girl. Here she is just posing for the camera. She started to ask for a bow every day. she will grab my hand and drag me to the bows and say "bow, bow, bow" till I get her one.

 Calvi giving Max a ride on his bike and Jodi riding her bike. She likes to ride bikes and points them out when she sees them. She wants to be just like her brother.

 Laying out in the sun that finally decided to show up.

 We took the kids to the river to throw rocks in and just got on an adventure. We sat by the river to take a break and calvi just ran back to the car to get this train book that he got from the library and has not been able to put down since he got it. We decided that jodi is our adventurous one cause she was getting into the water and loving the adventure while Calvi just wanted to read his train book.  It is so funny the different personalities they have.

Here is what Calvi wore to church today. He wanted to wear matching ties with his dad and so he picked out 2 blue ties. Also if you look close at his eye he got a black eye in nursery today. He told me that his friend was being superman and he was being batman and they were flying around and somehow he fell and bonked his head on the garbage can.  Silly guy he just will look tough for a few days. We are so excited for the warm weather to hopefully be here and STAY! Many more adventures to come!

Family Picts

 So while we were in St. George our wonderful friends took these picts of our little family. We got some really cute ones that are now hanging on my wall. (That is pretty good for me to have them all up already!)

 Calvi was really good for the picts he even smiled. This is not is normal smile but his "I am smiling for the camera smile" is still cute.

 Jodi didn't really want to do anything. Like I said in the last post she had a hard weekend. But we still got some cute ones.

 I like this one of ty and I cause we are both really laughing at some silly thing that Braeden said.

 This is really what it was like the whole time just a little crazy.

But it was so nice to have some new family picts that I love and Ty loves cause we didn't make a huge ordeal about it. Ha Ha!  Thanks Breaden and Alisha for the picts we love them!

APRIL

 April started out fun for us. We were able to take a trip to Utah for a few days. Tyler had a conference he needed to go to so while we were there we made a few stops. We were able to go visit Tys grandparents for a couple days. While we were there we took Calvi to a train station. He loved it they had a whole bunch of trains just set up and they were so big!

                                                
He really wanted to ride a train so tyler took him for a ride on the Front Runner. Here he is with his tickets to ride. Grandpa, jodi and I met them a ways down the track to pick them up. He loved it and it was one of his most favorite things about the whole trip.

 I wish I could say the whole trip was this easy, but it wasn't,  Jodi was a little crazy the whole time. After we visited the grandparents we went down south to St. George to visit some of our old friends. We Were so excited to see them and be somewhere where it was nice and warm.

 We were able to go swimming outside this was pretty much the only time jodi was not crying.

 We had fun playing with the kids and visiting with them all though Jodi was just ridiculous the whole time.

 Here is calvi getting a ride with Dylan. We went for a walk to the temple a couple times Calvi loved to climb up the stairs.

 This is one of the only good picts we got of the kids together. Jodi did not like me even looking at or playing with Dylan.

Here we are on calvi's favorite stairs at the temple. 

 Here they all are playing right before we left.

Here we are with the kids. We had such a fun time Calvi will still ask me if we can go back there to visit or if we can move down there. Ty and I would both love to we really like it down there but sadly our little vacation was over and we had to go back home. The next day we got back to Rexburg it snowed. 

 This month also brought changes for everyone. (Well accept us) but tys brother and sister graduated. We had a little party to celebrate all the changes.

 Our neighbors had a little fun run obstacle course around the neighborhood. It was so fun to see all the kids go through all the stations. Here is calvi running across the finish line.

 When tys family was here for graduation we kept all the kids during the ceremony. Calvi and Jodi had a lot of fun playing with their cousins. We ate pizza ......

 Had a camp out... and stayed up really late. We had a great time visiting with all the family while they were here.

 We made Jam. Tys Grandma Flint makes really great strawberry jam and so I made some and the kids try to eat it right out of the jar.

 My kids are pretty cool. Here they are getting ready for a bike ride. It has been nice lately that we have been out and about more.

 Jamen came to hang out for a bit here they are playing trains.

 And playing in the sandbox. Speaking of sand....

 Ty and I took the kids to the sand dunes and they loved it. Calvi packed all his sandbox toys and we were there for a while.

 We thought they would like to play by the water and sand more but when we took them to see the big mountains of sand all they wanted to do was climb up to the top. So we climbed up and down for a long time.

 

Their favorite part was that you could run and jump and you would just land in sand and they rolled all over in it. We had a good time this last month with all of our many adventures. 

And we are off to have more great adventures!
