My Handsome Boys

Saturday of Haircuts and Football

As you can tell from previous pictures, the boys hair was getting really long. So after much persuasion, I convinced Peter we should cut their hair. I was so nervous though when he actually agreed! My little boys hair is so cute. Anyways, the boys got a buzz and I love it. They look so much older now and I'm sure they love that their hair isn't hanging in their face anymore.  After haircuts we spent the rest of the day watching football. Josh Cragun got the kids new BYU shirts, I don't know why but I think the kids look so cute in BYU shirts!

Kiddie Park

A local kiddie park had a sale one day on all of their rides so we took the kids for their first carnival type rides. I was nervous they might be too little for them, but they seemed to enjoy them. As they went around the circle we would wave at them and they would smile. Cruz would look at us and try not to smile too big. They held onto the horsies on the carousal the whole time. It was dreadful hot that day though, and now that I'm looking at the pictures you can see how hot the kids were. Ha ha. They still loved watching everyone though and having some cotton candy.

visiting the Hess girls

The kids and I were feeling adventurous this summer and took a trip to visit my sister and her family. It was so fun to spend time with them and just hang out. It's been a long time since we've just been able to hang out and be together because there is always so much going on and everyone has different schedules. While I didn't absolutely love flying with three 1 years old by myself, I do love my sister and nieces very much, so it was so worth it. When I arrived in Sacramento I told my sister I hope she knows just how much I love her. ha ha. I loved having Lucy as my right hand gal all week. She was an amazing helper and my kids adore her. Carder loved to cuddle with her, Taylor was in love with all her purses and necklaces, and whenever Lucy was in a bad mood, Cruz would climb on top of her and try to play with her. I also got to see Halie cheer, take her to volleyball, and meet some of her friends. She just started high school so she'll soon be way too cool for me.

 I love you girls so much!
