{Cherry Hill Fun}

We got Cherry Hill passes again this year.  We didn't get to go as often as we wanted because sweet little Lily P.  hated the water, so every time we went, I had to just stand with her in my arms.  We still had a great time when we went though.  In August, Mandy, Adrians sister stayed with us for a few days and we were able to go with her.  The kids were in HEAVEN!  They sure love their Aunt Mands.  :)

{JDRF Walk For A Cure Fundraiser}

As most of you all know, my sweet Ethan was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes just over two years ago.  Type 1, also known as Juvenille Diabetes, is a terrible disease.  It means my Ethan is insulin dependent.  Insulin is NOT a cure, it is just his life support.  JDRF - Juvenille Diabetes Research Foundation does a walk every year at Wheeler Farms to raise money to help find a cure.  Our family has a team that will be walking this year.  If you are interested in donating to sponser Ethan and our team in our walk to find a cure we would appriciate it greatly!:)  If you want to donate, or even join our team, you can go to

{4th of July}

I love, love, love the 4th of July!  It is my very most favorite holiday.  We had a great 4th of July this year.  We started our festivites this last week by writing letters to the soldiers.  The kids loved doing it and it really made them know what the holiday is all about and how blessed we are to live in such a great free country.:)On Saturday morning, we went to the Kaysville parade.  Ky is in the parade every year with her dance team.  It was the perfect day for a parade, not too hot.:)  The boys had a blast!  My friend, Emilees, little girl was there and she was totally loving on Derek.  It was so cute, Jamie and I were giggling watching her rub his back as they watched the parade.:) Lily slept through pretty much the whole thing.

  It was Noals birthday, so later that day, we went to my parents for a barbeque.  It was fun for all of the cousins to run around together and play.  Everyone was loving Grandpa Walt as usual.

We did fireworks with the kids that night and had a fabulous time!!! Can't wait until next year!!!:)

This summer, my kids have been so crazy about snakes!  Ethans friend lives by a field where they have been finding tons of them.  Good thing Adrian and I don't mind them or there would be a problem.:)

{Lilys 1st Solid Food}

Lily had her 1st solid food 2 weeks ago.  It was rice cereal, and she did NOT love it!  We keep on trying and trying, but I have come to the conclusion that if it does not come out of my boob, she wants nothing to do with it!!!:)
