Logan Learns to Ride a Bike!!! After The Puppet Show!

In Logan's first grade production of The Three Billy Goats Gruff, The Three Little Pigs, The Three Bears,
and The Ginger Bread Man. Logan played the part of the medium sized bear shown here in the middle. He did really very well, and fun was had by all. It was great!

Logan had been practicing on his scooter and in just minutes had figured out how to ride his bike, we were all so thrilled! This is Ben being thrilled!

Kite Day Festival!!! White Rock NM.

First we went to the over look in White Rock,

 You can see for days!!!

 We turned around to see a cute little waterfall.

We decided to go to the Kite Festival, and make free kites and get free tee shirts. We had a lot of fun. The wind was on and off, and when it was on, the kites were flying everywhere, and when it was off. Nothing.

Logan is running with the wind and his kite is flying beautifully. Note the free orange tee.

Highlight pictures of Sabrina It is pretty cute, and just a 10 foils on the top. Great for summer time!

Here are a several pictures of what we've been up too! Jalaine is growing so wonderfully...she is such a healthy little baby. Abram is playing and thriving! We take every chance we get to go to the park, or walk around the Greenbelt, or dance and play. We went to a new place called iJump here in IF. It is basically a building filled with trampolines and foam block pits. Very fun! I can cross a triathalon off my bucket-list (things you do before you kick the bucket) It was a riot. I improved a lot in all three areas that I trained for...half mile swim, 13 mile bike ride, 5k run...in 1 hour and 18 minutes! Nate watched the kids at my sisters house 5 minutes away(talk about convenient) and then they met me at the end and we partied! There is also a picture of Nate with several of his buddies. It is kind of hard to see...but they are in the garage. He was dutch-oven cooking and grilling and I had to snap a pic because it was truly a "man-cave"! There were a couple hours of talk about guns, knives, four-wheeling, camping, their jobs, shooting, and all things man! Cute Joslyn(n?) and Jalaine with Mamas. Then, there are a couple pics of darling Marcy and her cute baby bump! Also threw in a pic of both of the kids on her lap(or lack of lap). She is going to be a pro!! (This is my FIRST blog post EVER! I am very happy that I did it!! I picked some photos that I thought little Ben would especially enjoy. Boy, do we miss you guys!! ) *Oh and the pic of Abram with his beautiful hillbilly teeth...well what can we say that boy is always making us laugh!! Hope you got a laugh(or a scare) too! ;)

Sabrina Got Highlights, How Fun!

While enjoying the sunshine with our neighbors we decided to give Sabrina a fun summer time look, she really wanted to have it done, and I am so glad we did. that night I made this outfit for her out of my shirt, and a ruined pair of jeans.

Albuquerque Temple

I was so pleased to go to the Temple, I left Rick with Ben, while Sabrina, and Logan were at school.
It is a smaller temple like Rexburg, but so beautiful! and just what I needed.
The drive to Albuquerque is around 2 hours, and so I kick myself for not taking advantage of the Idaho Falls Temple when I was so near to it.
