Ashton's Visit

We had a camping trip planned this last weekend and ended up having Ashton come and visit us the same weekend. It was great to have him come with us on our trip and get to know him better and him to get to know us and the kids. He fits right in and we had a great time.We went tubing on our camping trip and it was Ashton's first time and he loved it. Sage and Sierra are the only ones that didn't give it a try. Savannah, Hunter and Cooper had fun doing it too! I went also and didn't cut my foot this year! The kids kept telling me now mom don't cut your foot this time! We also went to the beach when we were there because the campground was out at the coast. Then Sunday we packed up came home took showers and headed over to show Ashton Autzen stadium because he also loves the DUCKS!!! It was a great weekend and when his mom picked him up their were tears which is hard.

Savannah Turns 11!!

Savannah turned 11 on July 19th and now we are parents of a tween! I can't believe she is going into 6th grade and is going to be in middle school it is crazy to me how fast they are growing up. We had a movie theme for her party and when it was dark out we used a projector and watched a movie outside it was fun and the kids had a great time and tons of candy! I made cupcakes that look like popcorn on top it was pretty easy to do. It is fun to do creative things for their birthdays! Savannah got a ipod and a cute outfit from Grammy and Papa and gift cards for her itunes. She has had that ipod attached to her ever since. Let the adventures of a pre-teen begin because I have a feeling it is going to be rough.

Swim Team

Savannah and Sage both have been doing swim team this Summer. Sage is doing really good for her first year and she is liking it! These are pictures from their first swim meet of the season! I wanted to catch up on blogging and post different things we have been doing this Summer so far.
