Our New Toy

Yesterday we decided that it was time to spend some of Kyle's hard earned money and buy a new 4-wheeler. We bought a Suzuki King Quad 750....and it is SWEET!! It is really fun to drive and we can't wait to take it out on a trail. Now we won't all have to all squish on one wheeler! Yippee!!

Sunday Afternoon

Today we thought that it was time to get the 4-wheelers out and go for a sunday afternoon ride. All of our hubby's had work and school stuff so us mom's took charge. We went down to Fullers Bottom to check on the cows and to see if we had any baby calves (which we didn't). After the ride, we stopped back at the truck for a hotdog and marshmellow roast. What a fun day! It was a little chilly, but nothing to complain about.

6 years

Yesterday was me and Kyle's 6th year anniversary. I can't believe how fast time flies. I remember when he used to come over to my college apartment and open the door and say "honey, I'm home". Even thought it seems like yesterday that Kyle and I were dating, I can't imagine life without him. He is the greatest person that I have ever met. He is the greatest dad to our two little boys and the hardest worker out there. I love him so much and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him.

So to celebrate our anniversary we decided to go to Glenwood Springs Co. to swim in the super fun hot springs and to ski at Sunlight Mountain Resort. We had so much fun just being away, it wouldn't have mattered where we went or what we were doing.

Skiing was especially fun. It has been like 5 years since we had been skiing so we were a little rusty. Even though we crashed a lot, we had a blast. (Funny thing, so this was the farthest East that Kyle had been in his whole life...poor kid!)

Hogle Zoo

Today we took a trip to the city to go to the zoo. The weather was GREAT and the animals were all out enjoying the sunshine. It was the perfect time to go because their weren't very many people there. Kade loved the snakes, elephants, and monkeys and Tyce loved riding on the carousel and eating lunch. We had a really fun day......and I got to try out my new double jogging stroller (thanks KSL). Wahoo for the zoo!!

Hello Sunshine

The weather down here in Good Ole E-County has been FABULOUS. It has been so nice to be able to spend the afternoon outside instead of in the house making a mess. Everyday after school we spend hours jumping on the tramp, riding bikes, playing in the mud, and swinging on the swing set. It's even better when Tylee and Kelsey come and play with us.

This nice weather makes me want to go camping SO bad.
