Week in NV

After church on Sunday we went to NV to stay with Rye.  He had a few days off between his shifts so we went out to the ranch.  We have missed it, and his parents were there, which was fun!  BUT the main reason I wanted to go out there was so the boys could spend some time with Cupcake one last time.  They dont think she will make it to much longer.  We LOVE this old horse.  She has been so good to our kids and so many others!!   But our visit was good.  The boys were so spoiled by their grandma.  We also stayed with Rye at the man camp, which was interesting, haha.  But there was a little reservoir type deal  right down the rode, and I took the boys there while Rye was at work, and they had a blast.  They were sending toys down the stream to each other, it was cute.
I had to set my chair clear down the stream to catch the toys they missed, which was like  ninety percent of them!   Im so glad they have each other!  

Sorry about the million posts trying to catch up!!

We've been....

Playing hard
Going swimming at the rec. center and we also love Sand Hallow reservoir
Getting way way to many owies

Knox has numerous globs of super glue on his head all at once right now.  The kid cant do anything with out getting hurt.  Last week we were saying prayers and he got up and came back twenty seconds later with his nose completely mangled...SO much blood.  He didn't shed a tear.

Playing with cousins
playing cars for days at a time.
Getting stung by bees

Holden comes running in the house crying saying he hurts, and long story short I find a bee up his shirt.  He had four bee stings on him.  Sad hu?  He was so sad and confused.  He says "mom why did that bee think I was his food??  Do I look like food to you!!??"  He is so kind hearted that when he calmed down he was worried about the bee and felt bad he scared it....I am so proud of this kid.

Playing so good together

Practicing wrestling

Holdens Learning to read

Having family movie nights

We love popping air popcorn

Holden insists on family home evening
Holden listens so good and follows rules no matter what.  I love this about him.   Hopefully Knox follows Holden with this.

Knox is saying new phrases. 

His newest is, peeii peeii pee wid u cherry on pop...mom.   Pretty pretty please with a cherry on top.  Melts my heart!

Whacking people

Knoxs gets a kick out of whacking random people, especially in Walmart, so if a little Boy wacks you in walmart dont laugh because we are trying to end this whacking nonsense.

Were doing good.   

Grandmas Birthday Lagoon trip!!

We had such a fun weekend in Salt lake! the first of September  It was Rye's moms birthday and for her Birthday she wanted  to take us all to lagoon and stay the weekend there.  We have done this for a few years now.  She loves Lagoon!!  We were so lucky, and had so much fun!!

Grandpa and his boy taking their nap....Who naps at lagoon??

These pictures of Holden cracked me up...He started the ride so happy then he got a little worried!

uncle Zack and Aunt Taysha were so nice and rode the first ride with the boys!


Holden and Knox were soooooo funny on the bumper cars.  By the way does that other kid in the picture look like he is in our family??.......Hes not.    Funny kid though, haha.  But they let all the kids in and they all run to pick  their cars.
   My boys take their time and before they know it there's only 2 cars left.
So they hop in and Holden instantly gets out.  The poor guy goes around and buckles up All the other kids and gets to Holden and knox.  He tells Holden to get in, he's the only one out, and Holden tells him no, and starts to explain that his is broken because there is no gas or brake peddles.  The kid starts trying to explain to him whats going on and Holden starts arguing, and then Knox jumps in to give his two cents and Knox starts yelling at the guys in his unknown language, so the kid starts  trying to reason with Knox and Holden starts yelling " HEY!  Thats my brother, thats my baby brother, he thinks he needs peddles to!!" .........aaaalll the other kids were sitting just watching while my kids made the biggest scene two and three year olds could!!  The poor kids, was so nice to them though.  It ended up being a fifteen/twenty minute ordeal.......we laughed.
