PARK CITY in August

The Cheney's invited us to their Time Share in Park City. I had never been there and we have done lots of traveling so we were hesitant to go but we are so glad we made the trip. The Resort was awesome! We could prepare our own food and have a BBQ outside. There was swimming and a work out room. We even got free cookies!!

We made it out to Olympic Park to see some Olympians practice their winter sports in the summer time. We went down the bob sled ride twice. It was so fun!! We took a lift up to the ride.then when you get on you can adjust to go really fast or slow. I took each kid and so did Aaron. They loved going fast and screaming all the way down.

Laim is 1!

He has such a personality already. He is a combo of Hali and Colby. Sweet and cuddly like Hali but rambunctious like Colby.  He climbs and hangs on everything. Liam does not talk yet but he communicates what he wants pretty well by pointing. We are so Happy he is a part of our growing family.

Liam is 1!

Montana Reunion

We went up to Montana for the Billington/Christopher reunion at my Aunt Goldies home. I am so lucky to be a part o this family they have some pretty cool stories to tell and I love hearing them all. We enjoyed playing with all our cousins and their kids. We did a gold hunt with the kids, celebrated Grandmas 90th Birthday and had a BBQ with s'mores!!

4th of July

My parents came up for the 4th of July along with my sister Eva.

They were on there way to our Family Reunion  in Montana.

RAFTING May 12th 2012

 Aaron and I and a group of friends took a half day rafting trip down the Payette river in Idaho. I was afraid that it would be really hard to stay in the raft or that it would be bouncy the whole time. Luckily there was only a few big bumpy parts and the rest of the time we could enjoy the beautiful river and scenery. It was so nice to  get away for a bit and enjoy a fun date with Aaron. 

Hali's B-day

Hali is already 5 and has been way before this day was here. My Miss Hali is very creative and just wants to have fun all day long. She asks every night what are our plans are for tomorrow and makes sure she has a part in making it a fun day. Hali likes to plan out her days which usually include having a friend over, decorating for a party of some kind, doing an art project, going to the park or the YMCA. Most likely though she is  perfectly happy watching her shows,  going to store and helping Mom with dinner. I love that she is very good with her brothers and gets along with all of her friends at church. Hali is such a joy to have and I am blessed to be her mother. I love you Hali Bo-Bali!!

 Hali requested a Monkey cake not just any kind though, this one had to be made out of what monkey's eat. Any guesses??

A banana Cake!!

With chocolate chips for the eyes, nose and mouth.

 Hali wanted to play Monkey games. We played "monkey in the middle" and  "monkey in the jungle" (a version of pin the tail on the donkey) and of course a monkey pinata.

 A big thanks to all the kids that came and made Hali's Birthday a real PARTY!! If she could she would have one everyday.
