My Wonderful 4th of July Weekend!

We rode jet skis

on this beautiful lake

and visited this historical center

watched a small town parade

and visited this beautiful pioneer Tabernacle

Found an ice cave to visit in the afternoon

Then got ready to watch the fireworks going off around the lake.

Had a great time!

Happy Father's Day!

Middle child found these little cuties on the internet and made them today since we had a BBQ (in between rain storms). Aren't these cute lil' cupcake hamburgers!?!

Then who can resist a lil' person? He brought Grampa a football as a gift.


We were missing a few kids this year but they are always near and dear to our hearts! Phone calls are great but seeing each other in person is even better. Maybe next year, we can all be together.

I hope everyone had a wonderful day like we did today!

I use to have a dining room

Not anymore. I have had a dining room in all the houses we have lived in but you know how many times we used them? Not many. We just aren't formal people. I tried though. We took the old table and chairs to the cabin and then looked for a new set at the stores. I just couldn't find anything that I fell in love with. I kept trying to think of what I would like in that area if I didn't have a dining room there. The Honey and I finally found this piece of furniture. It fits so well with our high ceilings. Then I had to find a couch/love seat/chairs....came up with this.

Don't look at the rug. Just pretend it isn't there. In our old house I had a red room. This house I went with different colors so it has been rolled up and stored away. I am only using it to see if I like the size and am now too lazy to roll it back up and put it away.

 

 

And aren't these flowers darling? I love them. I knew they were from a child of mine but didn't know which one until today. Have to share them with him so he can see what they look out.

 

If you celebrate Mother's Day, I hope you had a beautiful day! Mine was wonderful. I was able to talk to my faraway children...even my missionary...all at once this afternoon. It was a very fun phone call!

High School Musical 3

Lil' sis is home for the weekend so a few of her friends came over to watch HSMusical3. The movie came out while she has been at school so I ordered it from Netflix so we could watch it together while she was home. It might be a corny show but we have enjoyed watching them together so we couldn't let the weekend go by without seeing the 3rd movie. I did notice this time around though that there were alot more comments going on between all of the girls than the first movie of HSM. :) It was a fun night!
