GiRLS CaMP 2010!!!

so last week was GIRLS CAMP, and it was such a Blast!! i just wish i would have been able to be there the whole time...but with a baby and all, that made it kind of hard. i was the camp director again this year and was able to g up for 2 days of camp...all day Tuesday and Thursday. it was so much fun. the girls in our ward are so amazing and we always have such a great time together. but being a new mommy again, it was nice to come home and see my boys...kind of the best of both worlds. strangely enough, i DID miss the crazy late night sleep overs. that's when some of the craziest moments always happen! i never stayed the night there...i would drive home late and get home between midnight and 2 in the morning, but it was totally worth it.we had a super cute Baseball theme..."A league of their own!" most of my ward girls are in this picture, but we are missing a few. we had 20 girls from our ward go!me and another leader Laurai fell in love with this cute girl that week!...LOVE YOU HALEY! so as it turned out...some of the camp water was pretty nasty, as we found out first hand!
awesome lessons!thanks for yet another FABULOUS year girls! girls camp rocks!

Pretend City

Carrie, Mark and Kaylie have been in town visiting and we have been having so much fun with them. One of the days they were here, we went to this cute new children's museum called PRETEND CITY. it is this cute whole city just for kids. there is a grocery store, a bank, fire station and much more. the kids had a blast dressing up and playing in the "pretend city!" Farmer Boy Blaine...back to his roots....born in Idaho!cousin Kaylie picking some applesKaylie dressed up and danced on stage....she was doing cute little twirls...and Blaine controlled the lights on the stage. Grandpa California would be proud!of course Blaine had to go to the doctor dress up...since that is what he wants to be when he grows up!and little Ty slept through it all!

One Month Old

I can't believe it, but my baby is already ONE MONTH OLD!! time has been FLYING BY! the last couple weeks have especially gone by fast because we have had Grandma and Kayla and my sister Carrie all come visit...and the extra hands have been super helpful! Ty has a Dr. app this week so i will be able to update his "stats", but i already feel like he is getting so big. we are still loving EVERY MOMENT with him. he is such a good baby! he eats well, sleeps well, plays well, he is even starting to give us little smiles. i don't want him to grow up..i just want to stay in this phase forever....but i know he will continue to just get cuter and more fun everyday! Love you sweet boy!

Beach Baby

Last weekend Jake's sister Kayla came out for a quick visit, and the one thing she really wanted to do was go to the beach...can you blame her. so Ty had his first real beach experience...with Big Brother Blaine too of course! it was such a beautiful day! building something fun!Ty enjoying the fresh air!
Thanks for coming to visit FUN AUNT KAYLA!!!
