A Spiderman Birthday Bash!

July was a very busy month for us with the Bar, frequent visits to Layton, two camping trips, and Porter's third birthday. Porter wanted his third birthday bash to be a SpiderMan party and so Spiderman is what he got. He had a nice little family BBQ, opened up lots of great presents, and ate cake and ice cream.

Doesn't this picture make you smile???

Hey Hey its picture day!

Chelsee and I got bored the other day and decided to have a little photo shot for the kids. Porter brought his "A" game he loved every minute of it, Eva was not so happy about it, I don't know how you professionals out there manage to do it. She wiggled, got sidetracked, and pulled the weirdest faces. We finally resorted to barking like a dog to get her to look at the camera, it worked a couple of times! Despite all the barking we manage to get some cute pics of both the kids and had a fun afternoon.

Camping at Twin Ponds

We went on a weekend camping trip with the Lloyd's in June up to Twin Ponds. We had a great time hanging out with our family, eating lots of good food, and laughing late into the night around the camp fire.

Summer & Swimming

In June Porter and I joined Paislee and Amanda in taking a mommy and me swimming class. It was three days a week for two weeks. I thought Porter would be scared and not do much, because up to this point he has not been the biggest fan of water. He surprised me though and did such a great job and loved every minute of it. I was glad that I got to spend some one on one time with just Porter and I think he like that time to. He learned to jump in the pool, swimming movements,how to blow bubbles, and go down the slide. Thanks Amanda and Paislee for letting us tag along!

Also we took a trip to the Manti Pool and had a great time. Porter was excited to see his cousin Bryant who works as a life guard there. He was so nice to give Porter a life jacket and take him down the big slide!
