Coog Close Ups

WARNING: Unless you DONT want to see the cutest baby in the world, I suggest you just move on to a different post cuz this is COOG CLOSE UP OVERLOAD.
I just cant get enough of this little chubba boy!!
 
 
 ^^ besides being held, this is his favorite place to be^^
 

^^ he is sitting up by himself like such a big kid! He can even balance without his hands down!^^
 
^^being outside usually does the trick to make this boy happy!^^



Does that not look like he is just singing his heart out and getting really into it?? Haha, love this little boy more than words.

Fave Mormon Messages!

Unfortunately a lot of media has become more and more inappropriate. Swearing, vanity, adultery, violence, and so on is so prevalent. It can be hard to find good movies sometimes. Scott and I have become fed up with wasting a Friday night starting multiple movies on Netflix, just to turn it off 10 minutes later because its inappropriate. So instead, we often turn to Mormon Messages or I am a Mormon videos. Time well spent. Because we love them so much, we wanted to share a few of our favorites with you!



 
 
 
 
It really was so hard to choose just a few. They are all so good and have so much worth and great lessons! I would seriously suggest watching them ALL, if you haven't. Its a good FHE or Sunday afternoon activity!!

July Birthday Celebration

Our family is getting a little too big to celebrate everyone's birthday individually. So every month we celebrate with one big party. This month we celebrated my mom's, my sister in law Rani's, my nephew Tucker's, and mine! We do it on a Saturday so we can do some sort of activity together. So for July we decided to celebrate at Manila Lake in Pleasant Grove with a BBQ and swimming. Sounds perfect for summer yeah? It definitely was!
Happy Birthday all you July babies!
(best month for a birthday, in my opinion ;) )

 
^These babies are only a few months apart!
Also, Coog is like a celebrity amongst these kiddo's^

 







^This little stud is turning 2. He is the cutest and we LOVE that Tucker boy!!^
 I love that the circle around whoever is opening presents gradually gets smaller...and smaller



 ^My sister Tawnette made this adorable apron! I love it and can't wait to use it!^
 
^Happy Birthday Rani!^
^Happy Birthday Mom!^







 ^The water was a little chilly for the kids, but they still loved it!^

Summer Getaway!

Not only did we get to go to Bear Lake, but on the way we passed through Logan. It was so fun to see lots of places we have precious memories from. Also, it was so good to see some wonderful friends we have missed dearly!

Alright here we go with the picture overload!!

 ^^ Finishing off the trip with Aggie Ice Cream....at 10 am. That's how we roll baby!^^
 
 
I wish we could have more adventures like this. If it were up to me, we'd do it every weekend :) But we do it as much as we can, and thoroughly enjoy it while it lasts!
In the mean time though, we will thoroughly enjoy NOT sharing an air mattress with an active 5 month old, but our bed instead.
YAY!!
