Another Outfit for Ady!
This one turned out toooooo small!
So I made another one!
Ady's birthday is coming up, and I asked her what she wanted. She said "a pretend baby that does real things, a pretty bedroom, and pretty hair bows" We got her the pretend baby (which you can feed, and then it proceeds to pee/poop, and I thought i would made a few accessories for her and her doll.
I made them matching outfits!
This one is for the doll!
This one is for Ady! The shirt it folded up so you can see the skirt. I will post a picture of it on her after I give it to her for her birthday!

We did a lot in June to keep ourselves busy!

We worked on some projects at home:
Ben working on his project car! Cleaning PARTS! FUN, FUN, FUN. and I acquired some awesome deals at yard sales (notice one piece of furniture in backround).

Ady and Hayden built some pretty spectacular towers !


We also had the opportunity to go camping with some friends. We had fun, even though it rained 89% of the time!

Daddy being silly!

Ben's Mom and Step dad, Jack, came to town during the free fishing weekend, and motorcycle rally. Saturday morning we headed out fishing. It was a good day of fishing, as Hayden won the kids contest, for 3 different things. I think they are for Biggest Trout, Biggest Blue Gill, and Longest Trout! He got to pick out 3 different prizes/
Next, we headed downtown to take a look at all of the motorcycles!
Of course we had to stop and get charlies ice cream!

Ady fell asleep on Ben's Shoulders! I think we wore her out!


Just a few of many motorcycles!

Ben and I!

May: came and went.

May was a busy month. It flew by in the wink of an eye. At the beginning of May, we took an unexpected weekend getaway to Washington. We went to the TRI-CITIES, stayed in a hotel with a pool, went to an awesome playground, and did tons of shopping!
Here are the kids ready for the day! Family shoot first!
We went to a great park they had there, i believe it was called discovery cove, or dream land... but I can't remember. It was a huge wooden park, with tons and tons of toys. We didn't stay long because the weather did not cooperate.
Ady's favorite thing to do is swing.


Hayden enjoyed all aspects of the park.


At the top of the castle


Ady and Daddy having fuN!
On our drive home, notice the nasty weather, there was the end of a rainbow right in front of us. I was expecting my share of gold, but no, not this time.
We also managed to make it to Boise in May.
Here is Warren, my nephew, and I, on his blessing day! Isn't he adorable?

Dana, Britnae, and Warren... Too cute.

While in Boise, we had to take the kids to their favorite spot, MCDONALDS!


Hayden has been attending CARAVAN at a local church, and he graduated from Benson Buddies. He was pretty proud!

All of the Benson Buddies!
