Busy Busy

As some know, I have a business making wreaths and blankets. Well here is one wreath that I just got done making for my sister-in-law. She had some stuff come up and ended up in the hospital for a week and these are the flowers that people sent to her while she was there. I am way happy how this turned out!! I dried some flowers that I have never dried before and some of them didn't turn out good, but some of them turned out AWESOME!! I am way excited about this wreath and love it!!

I was looking at facebook one day and one of my friends had a website posted and I went and looked at it and it had these cookies on it. I thought they were adorable, so I had to try them out! They aren't perfect, but not too bad for my first time. I am definately going to be making more of these. Let me know if you want to know how to do these. (Incase you can't tell, they are spider webs with little spiders on them.)

And last but not least....Dakota's 14th Birthday! She loves loves soccer, so we decided to get her and us some Major League Soccer tickets for her birthday. She didn't have a clue we were going. We picked her up from school at lunch, drove to Utah, went out to eat at the Mayan, went to the soccer game, stayed the night, went to Cabella's the next morning, had lunch with my brother Brandon, and headed home. The game was alot of fun and we had really good seats. We were about half way between mid-field and the goal, and 5 rows up. She had a blast which made it all worth it. Quick trip though!!

Banana Bread and Blueberry Muffins

We had a good morning this morning!! We woke up and made blueberry muffins for Daddy for breakfast. Yummy!! Then we made some banana bread to take around to some friends. (Hope they turned out good, I didn't even try any of it before I gave it away!) Evan wanted to lick the beater, which at first I thought was kindof gross where it was bread, but then I thought, well what the heck. If it is gross he won't eat it. Suprise!! It was pretty yummy! Skylar has a doughy dirty face and then add muffin crumbs to it. Too cute!! Like her forehead?? Haha! Poor girl!

My "big" little girl!!

So this first picture is of one of Skylar's owies. (It is on her top left of her forehead.) Recently she thinks she is a big girl. Miss independant!! She likes to feed herself and doesn't like to sit in her high chair anymore. Which is ok. Well, the other night she was sitting at the table (a tall table) and she fell off her chair. It took me a while to figure out why she had 2 lines going accross her forehead on her goose egg. Then it came to me!! It is the grout lines of our tiled floor!! I guess she basically fell flat on her forehead. I hate it when this happens!!! Makes you feel like a bad mom.....even though I know I couldn't do anything about it.

This picture is of another owie she got 3 days before the other one. I am not sure what happend with this one exactally. Her and Evan were playing on my treadmill and she must have fell and hit her eye. Poor girl!! She is only 19 months and she get's hurt alot more than Evan who is 3!! I think I have my hands full with this little girl!!!

Oops!!

So I forgot to post these pictures on my last post. But while we were camping, my aunt bought these different halloween decorations for the kids to make. Totally adorable!! So here are some pictures of us putting them together and some of my kiddo's finished products. Love them!!

Our most recent camping/hunting trip

These two pictures were of all the kids on Grandma and Grandpa Greats new toy. The kids were adorable!! And in next 3 are Evan and Skylar playing in the creek. At first they had clothes on. Then Evan wanted his shorts off, so Skylar did also. Then he wanted his shirt off so Skylar did also. He tried taking off his underwear, but didn't let him get that far. Lathered them up in sunscreen and let them play. They were in the water the majority of the time.

This was a loooong camping trip. 12 days. Yep you saw right 12 days!! Derek took a week off of work (which is 4 days) then add his 2 weekends in it which are 4 days each, add them together and you get 12 days!! I made a deal with Derek, I would not complain about his humting this fall if he would finish remodeling our basement. So no complaining here. I am not sure I am up for anymore camping this year though. So I think our Salmon Steelhead fishing trip is out. Which is a highlight of my year. But oh well.....I am ready to stay home for a while!!

Time flies when you are having fun!

So I don't have alot of fun stuff to blog about. No vacations, no parties.....all we have been doing all summer is camping. Which is a blast. Here are a couple of cute pictures. These two are of Skylar. Dirty like always. But adorable none the less.

So Grandma and Grandpa B bought this new blind to use for hunting. The kids loved it. It was like this new fort that had windows and a door to look out of. They were hilarious!

And this one is of a different camping trip, but this is the only picture I took that weekend. Wierd. But this is a cute one. Evan's face is all chocolaty. Yummy!
