4 wheeling in Uintas

Yesterday we had an absolute blast. Kimberly and Jason invited us to go up to the Uintas with them to check out some camping spots for later this summer as well as ride some 4-wheelers around. The day started off a little rough with one of Jason's 4-wheelers leaking oil and gasoline. He was able to get it fixed and then we were going to load the 4-wheelers and a welding point on his trailer had given and fallen off. We got the bikes loaded and got on our way.


It was absolutely beautiful up there. We went up to Soap Stone in the Uintas

Here Shaileen is being an amazing Aunt.


See I told you it was beautiful up there.

Unfortunately the same bike we were having problems with gave us fits up there too. We even had to end up towing them up a hill. 




Jason, Alex and I got on the wheeler and I rode him back to the truck so he could drive it up to load the other bike.

 
We found a little grasshopper so I picked it up and showed the boys! They love it. DJ loved it so much that when I let it go he decided he would step on it.

Memorial Day Weekend

We started this weekend out right. We went out to the cemetary and visited some graves. 


 I decided that I wanted to bring some apples to put on Grandpas grave! I truely miss him...


Grandma putting flowers and windmill on Terry's Grave (her son, my uncle)


Marah found a big worm and loved playing with it






We also stopped by Shaileen's grandparents grave because they were in the same cemetary. She brought some windmills for them! 



This is my grandparents grave (Dad's Parents) 


a fun photo of  my great grandparents graves. They wanted to be burried above ground.


After visiting the cemetary all of us went out to Bret and Hilarie's house and had some great food and smores outside in their backyard! We love getting together as a family! 



Shaileen was teaching DJ how to roast marshmallows, 


He really enjoyed them!

Baby Boys Bookshelves!

I have had this idea for a long time of putting bookshelves on the wall in our little guys room (no name still) but couldn't quite decide exactly what I wanted and how it would really look! I knew exactly where I wanted them to go and that I wanted three of them... But that is it. We decided at the last minute on the way home from work to go to Kurt's favorite store (IKEA)!! While we were meandering through the isles we came upon these cute white shelves and we both looked at each other and knew they were perfect!! We came straight home and put them up! Good thing I taught preschool because we had oodles of book to choose from to fill the shelves with! We also bought a light for the room as well.
I think it turned out great if I do say so myself. We are getting that much closer and we can't wait to meet this little guy. I just want to say how truly grateful we are for "J" and this amazing gift she is giving us!! Enjoy...

Sonogram

Today we had a great day so far. This morning we went to softball with Carlye and had a blast. Carlye hit a homerun, two triples and a single. I am enjoying coaching her team so much. Today we found out that she made allstars and I am going to help coach them. Shaileen was not as excited but she will put up with it. At 12:30 we met up at the park with J and had a BBQ. She was sweet enough to bring the sonograms. It is so neat being able to see him. We absolutely adore J and appreciate her kindness. Shaileen was also able to feel him kick. She said that he is going to be a soccer player! What a great day... tonight we are going to go up to the Utah Blaze game! woohoo
