Utah/ Montana Trip!

I've been MIA on my blog for too long! We went to Utah & Montana a few weeks back and I can't seem to get caught up! We had a blast on vacation. It was great to see all of my family and friends. It's never long enough whether it's two days or two weeks. Kayla & Adam LOVED playing with all of their cousins. Montana was great too. We went with some of Brett's family. The house we stayed in was awesome! It was right on the river & had no neighbors. I can't begin to tell all of the stories. It would take too long, so I am just going to sum it up: the kids favorite thing to do was to go on a 4-wheeler ride with their cousin Cole. Which they did all day, every day! Brett did some fishing. I did some reading. We had campfires and looked at all the stars in that big ole Montana sky!

Nobody wanted to go home!

Taekwondo Testing

Kayla & Adam have been going to Taekwondo for the last 5 months or so. They tested for the yellow-striped belt today. It was really fun to watch. They had to perform the skills they've learned so far like kicks, blocks, and what to do in a situation if a stranger tries to grab them. The kids were so happy to receive their new belts and a certificate. They kept hugging each other. So cute! When we were taking the picture with the instuctors/judges they wanted to be hugging for it! It was so sweet. It makes me so happy to see how much they love each other!

Nana's Birthday

Friday was Pam's birthday. The kids were really excited to have her come and sleepover. They blew up balloons, colored her pictures, painted ceramic presents, and helped bake and decorate a birthday cake. Not to mention they ran around being really, really loud from all of their excitement!!

...and yes Adam wore his pajamas all day!

Silly String Fight

Kayla and I went to Walmart yesterday and she was checking all the candy and toys out for kids to want while you're waiting in line. She was wondering what silly string was so of course I had to buy some! They loved it!! These are about the only pictures that worked because the kids were running around so fast! They were just a blur.

Kayla loves dogs! She has pictures of puppies in her room. She paints dogs. She likes to pretend she is a dog. Here she is in Sugars kennel with her. Silly girl!
