The Wild Animal Park!

We had a great time at the Wild Animla Park! Lots of exciting things to see, and we bought a cool Panda mug for $10.00 and refilled it about 15 times for free. I'd say we got our money's worth.

On our way home from Gray Eagle, we stopped in San Diego to drop Tyler off at Scout camp, and I had won tickets on the radio to the Wild Animal Park, so we took Alan and the girls there for the day. The weather was beautiful, a little warm actually, but it wasn't 115* so I wasn't complaining. Alan pooped in his training pants just before we got on the tram around the park. Luckily it blended in with the rest of the animlas and no one complained. He's still struggling with the whole potty training thing. He does pretyy good when it comes to #1 but if it's #2 forget it. We had a good time and didn't have to spend too much money.

Summer Vacation!

We were able to get out of the Desert for a few days and spend time up at Buck's Lake with Mike's dad and step mom. We had lots of fun, and the weather was awesome. 40* at night! Mike and I were loving it, but the kids got a little cold. The days were perfect in the 80*'s and the food was yummy, and free for us. Thanks Ben and Julie!

July Birthday Bash!

Crazy Hair Day! I Won!

Well a new month, and a new set of Birthdays! June and July are very busy month's for our family. This month we celebrated Tammy, Chris, Jaden, Mike, and Christy. That was just immediate family. We had several more birthdays for lots of cousins too. This month we got together up in Yucca to get out of the extreme heat. It's about 15 degrees cooler up there. We had lots of fun, and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Chis and Christy couldn't join us, but they were in our thoughts! Felicia was there to represent Chris and took home his gifts. It was great seeing you Felecia.

Cortney and Antony's Weddng!

Thank you to everyone who came to help us celebrate Cortney and Anthony's marriage on Friday. It was a blessing to get out of the heat. It's hard to believe it is 40* cooler just 2 hours away. Why do we live in the Desert? I'm sure I'll remember when winter is here. It was a beautiful ceremony, and the Bride was happy. That's all that matters! I was really stressing the day before the wedding. Wen ever had a chance to check out the wedding site and when we got there Cortney was very disappointed, but we continues to look around and even though it was on the a little different area then on the invitations, I believe we managed to let everyone know the new directions and the ceremony went beautifully. Despite the occasional airplane right above. The sky was a little cloudy, but the weather felt great. A few guests were freezing. It is hard to go from 110* to 65* in 2 hours time. The reception was nice and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. The balloon man was a hit for the kids. Everything went pretty good. I didn't get a chance to finish the little favors, so I have 60 little canisters with dove mints if anyone has a need for them. Thanks again to all who made it , and we missed you for those who couldn't. These are just a few pictures I took with mycamerea, Rachelle was our photographer, and I'm sure ehr's turned out much better. Thank you Rachelle!
