YUM!!!

This is what I am sitting down to enjoy now that both of my kids are finally asleep. It's been a long day.

I can't even begin to tell you how much I love summer. We have been doing some really fun things and have a lot more fun things planned. I am not at all ready for Mitch to start school or for the weather to get cold. We blessed Indie last Sunday and were lucky enough to have both of our families there plus some of Mitchs aunts and uncles that we very rarely get to see. Treyden has learned tide his bike without training wheels and has gotten really good. This past weekend some friends and I went to Utah for a shopping excursion and had a blast. We went to Park City, watched the Proposal (which is my new fav, I laughed so hard I cried), and went to Taipan and Hobby Lobby. We had a blast. I have the best friends! My mom had the kids on Friday and then Mitch had them all day Saturday. I came home to kids in bed although not asleep and I got them up because I really missed them, and a clean house. My husband is amazing.

Going Private

It's true. I am jumping on the band wagon. You know the drill, leave me a comment with your e-mail address if you want to see what we are up to.

More Summer FUN!!!

Driggs, Idaho - Spud Drive In -We went and visited Nick and Ashley and took the kids to Ice Age 3. Not my favorite of the 3 Ice Age's but not bad. The next day we took the kids fishing at a stocked pond. They were able to catch a couple of little fish and thought it was pretty neat!

Rexburg Splash Park - we met Ashley Boston and Carter in Rexburg and let the kids play in the water and go for a ride on the carousel.

Island Park - we didn't have any success fishing cuz it is hard to find a good place where the kids won't drowned and the moms can sit. I am pretty sure the kids didn't care though. They just practiced their casts and played in the water.

*Notice the food in Kenlee's hand in every single picture - she is a growing girl!

Here are a few pictures of what we have been up to in the last week, Treyden and Kenlee love love love their new baby sister. In fact she and I start feeling a little claustrophobic when she is eating. Treyden has given her a few blessing. My kids both have colds and pink eye and Kenlee has been getting bad leg aches at night so they have each gotten several blessings and Trey has picked up on that. They are very good at sharing with her and she is pretty patient with them (and me while I take a picture). Other than that the rain has prevented us from doing much else which is ok with me for a few more days. I am still not quite ready to chase kids around the neighborhood. I do love the rain but I am just about ready to play outside again so anytime these dark clouds decide to move on will be alright with me. Plus Trey is ready to use his new bioculars (goggles) in Carters (his cousins) new pool so we better start seeing some sun soon!

Its a Girl!

Indie Jae Simmons finally arrived on June 4, 2009. She weighed in at 7 lobs 14 oz. 21 in. long. She is so sweet and we are so excited to have her in our family. We got home from the hospital this afternoon and are doing great!
