A day of fun with the Pett Fam!

One of our days was spent with the Pett family. It was the first time the whole family has been together in 3 years. We started the day by doing a session at the temple with my sister-in-law Andrea for her first time. Then we all got together for lunch and then headed to deer creek. Thanks to my sister for bringing down all of their fun water toys for us to use! Later we went back to my parents house for more fun and games.

Trafalga

We thought it would be fun to take Alyssa miniature golfing so we went to Trafalga. I spent many of my Jr. High days at this place and other than a new paint job and moving around some arcade games, nothing has changed. Alyssa had fun doing everything but she definitely liked the slick track the best.

Water land!!

We had to take advantage of the great weather, so we went to a water park. Alyssa calls this place water land. she loved that everything was set up for her age and she had no restrictions. She especially loved the water slides, and wanted to spend most of her time on them.

The best friends ever!!

Every time we go to Utah, I get together with my girlfriends that I grew up with. It is so much fun to see everyone and to have our kids play together. I am so lucky to have such great friends!!

Our Trip To Utah!!!

I got to start my vacation by running a half marathon with my sister. It was a really fun race and I always love running down Provo canyon. Every time we come out to Utah I realize how much I love and miss the mountains.

Busy week for Sean!!

Sean is really starting to grow up too fast now!! He had a lot of things happen this week... he discovered how much he loves to stand up along our furniture, he got his 8th tooth, he started to crawl(kind of), and even survived a tickle torture from his big sister!!

Happy Pioneer Day!!!

Today Alyssa went to a primary activity at the church where she had so much fun learning about the Pioneers! She loved to play the games, sing, dance and learn how butter was made. At the end the kids all went outside and rode their bikes in a parade!!

Another trip to the beach!!

We took a day trip to the beach with some friends and we had so much fun!! It was a perfect beach day! Alyssa didn't slow down for a minute the entire time we were there, she loves everything about the beach especially looking for sand crabs, having her dad get her "stuck in the sand", making sand castles, looking for sea shells, and playing in the waves. Sean loved splashing and playing in the ocean water (after he got use to the temp.) and tried to eat the sand the rest of the time. They were both a lot of fun to play with and we all had a great time!!

1st Loaf of Bread!!

This post is for my Mom!! I finally made my first loaf of bread and I am very proud to say it turned out great and it was fantastic!!!

What's happening lately...

Alyssa loves to be the first one to Sean when he gets up in the morning. By the time we go in the room to get him he will be surrounded by toys and every stuffed animal she can find!!



Alyssa decided she needs a bath every time Sean has one. She insists on squeezing in his little bath tub with him!


Sean is loving food!! We have recently started giving him cheerioes and puffs and now he wants to eat everything in sight.

Alexandria Fireworks!

Alexandria was celebrating it's birthday so we went into Old Town for another fun night of Firworks!!

Wheaton Regional Park

We went to a park in Maryland and it was probably the funnest and biggest park I have ever been to!! There was a carousel and a train and a great play ground for the kids to play on. Alyssa enjoyed everything she did and Sean was a good sport like always! We ended the day with some pizza at Generous George's, one of our favorite restaurants out here!
