long summer days

I was working on saturday and as i was finishing my last client i realized i hadn't heard mace in a while so i start looking for her, after about five minutes later i found her acrossed the road and down the street in a neighbors backyard having lemonade. Well her dad was watching her and obviously fell asleep. I was REALLY mad so i told her to go downstairs and wake him up so mommy could talk(yell) at him. Ten minutes later i came down to find this- so cute i wasn't even mad anymore!! Lucky save trav:)

Parade

Trae was much more impressed with splash park!! Don't know who the dude is, but apparently it was trae's friend ( kinda scary!)

people watching- she gets this from her dad, she did this for about an hour

riding the carousel at rexburgs splash park

tee ball was so fun this year!! Trae actually got into it and thought every game was AWESOME!!! he would hit the ball and run as fast as his runt legs would let him and when he stopped he would yell to the coaches" Did i hit it so hard? that was sweet huh!!" such a character. Thanks Angi and Kristen, it takes patience to coach him!

crime spree's

Traesen is always keeping me on my toes, here are a few of the most recent incidents:
-taking golf tees from walmart without his dad even knowing
-at the bank, in the drive thru he decides he is done and gets out of the car
-stealing medical bracelets from walgreens
-stealing a car from preschool
-driving the stolen preschool car all over the hood of my car to cause massive scratching
-calling 911 just to see what happens...
All of these adventures have occured in a 24 hour period, pray for me.

Viva Las Vegas

For travs 30th b-day i surprised him with tickets to vegas, we stayed at the Paris and this was the view out our hotel room window. It was so beautiful, when you woke up and opened the blinds you really felt you were in paris. At night we could lay on our bed and watch the light show at the bellagio, it was very romantic. We had such a great time together, we went to The Price Is Right and a hypnatist show, we layed at the pool, did some shopping and held hands the entire time. It is so crazy what a weekend without kids and responsibility will do to a couple. Anyway we had a blast and are very thankfull to g-ma cherie and kim for watching the kids while we were gone.

Maycee the mother....

ok so we watch allie a couple times a week while kim cuts hair in the salon, and as i have posted we have been potty training. Maycee decided one lovely afternoon to take allies diaper off and help her pee in the potty(only this is a doll potty)!! She peed they wiped and there wasnt even a mess on the floor. I am still laughing...

This potty chair for dolls has now officially been hidden because now everytime allie comes over she feels the urge to pee in it, ohhh funny times!!!

Sledding

so we decided to take the kids out for a sledding adventure one afternoon and had a blast!! Mace cried the very moment we got to the top of the hill so trav set her on a sled and shoved her down- when she reached the bottom her screaming turned into laughing hysterically and saying i again:)

Trav with two little snuggle bugs

Love Birds

The other day i took the kids to the river to feed the ducks and when trae saw the temple he in his most serious voice says"mom, when i marry allie in the temple will you sing I AM A CHILD OF GOD because it is my most favorite song" He cracks me up!! almost every picture we have of these two this is the position they are in.
