Back in Boise

After two weeks of fun in Rexburg, we are now back in Boise. Here are a few random pics from the past week or so...

welcome back to boise... it is so HOT!! Thank goodness for AC!!

We have been enjoying a lot of popcicles and trying to stay inside during the day. Its almost too hot to go outside! Especially when our pool is closed for repairs this week... so dumb

Two of my beautiful sisters-in-law came to visit for a night. We talked for hours, had some amazing manicures and pedicures and shopped a ton. I love these girls so much. How luck am I to have such fun and sweet sisters!

getting patriotic for church :)

We went to Eagle Island one day and Avy had a blast. It was a  very busy Saturday with waaayyy too many people smoking and in swimsuits that they should never wear and dirty water.... but Avy loved it :)

And cleaning out the cooler for the camping trip. Avy has figured out how to take her diaper off and is usually running around like this :)

Rexburg vacation: Relay for life

Thanks to Doug and Bradys business- The Dealio- Our family was able to participate this year in the Relay For Life. I had never been and Im really glad we did it. It was pretty cold but so much fun hanging out with our family and walking around the track together. It has been 13 years since Steve died from cancer and it was still a pretty emotional night for me and my family. We all miss him so much and wish he could have been there with us.

Rexburg Vacation: The ZOO!!!

We had sooo much fun at the Zoo this time. The weather was perfect, there was no one there, and about every animal was out for us to look at. Such a fun day spent with grandma Janet and cousins!

Rexburg Vacation! part one

Diana, Brayden and Madi have moved back to rexburg for the summer so he can work... Boo hoo. We are pretty mad about it :( So when they left to Rexburg I decided to ride with them so Avy and I could stay for a week or two with my family in Rexburg ( and Chris had a nice little vaca from his nagging wife and messy baby!) We had a blast and Im already ready to go back :)

We had a birthday party for all the June birthdays with the Thomasons. Sad Chris couldn't be there because we were celebrating his birthday :( Sorry buddy but we celebrated for you!

 We spent Fathers day with my dad. Avy absolutely loves him. But who doesn't?!! Love you Dad!!

Avy sent this little video to her daddy on fathers day. Sad he couldn't there with us :( Love you Chris! Best "dada" ever!!

We went to Rigby lake one day and it was a huge success!! Avy LOVED it and had about a pound of sand in her diaper when we were done. We will definitely be going back there this summer. Hopefully...

Every morning Avy would wake me up by hitting my face and yelling "ANNA!!" Something about Anni, kate, Jack and Colt that she just cant get enough of. She LOVES them all so much! If Anni is around, Avy couldn't care less about me or anyone. She just wants Anna!

Anni and I got Pedicures one day. I think every pregnant woman should have a Pedicure once a week. It was so amazing!

A little dance party to the Wiggles in Grandma Janet's basement.

 We had a day at the park and did the Mary-go-round. It was a little scary for the babies. Maybe next year they will like it :)

One morning we got to watch grandma Bonnie teach summer school. They launched mini rockets and Avy loved watching them go "pop!!" Bonnie is such an amazing teacher. I wish Avy could be in her class!

My parents took Avy and I up to West Yellowstone to watch the Playmill theater. Avy actually loved it and was singing and clapping for 3/4th of the play. Towards the end she just wanted to run in the hall. But I totally expected that so it was ok. Thanks for taking us, mom and dad! It was such a fun day!!

 This post is getting too long... Rexburg vaca to be continued :)
