Upcoming Party Report

Can you believe how cute this girl is???

Not just a burger...

This week I tried a new restaurant, Taste of India.  Super yum... I tried the Chicken Coconut Korma and the Mango Chicken, with some Cheese Naan on the side.  I liked that you can specify the heat of the dish, anything can be mild, medium or hot.  I tried a mild and medium....definately couldn't do the hot without a few gallons of water.

And then today I went to the Greek Festival for lunch... So much good food!  I tried Dolmathes, Pastitsio, Souvlaki, Spanakopita and of course a Gyro.  (Please keep in mind I was sharing this food with another person and that I did not single handedly eat all this.)  And for dessert we had Kourambiedes, Galotopita and Bakalava.  Colby accidentally ate the whole clove that they use as a garnish in the Baklava...

"Wow!  This tastes like Christmas." 

They had art, jewelry and clothing to purchase as well as dancing during the evening.  If you are downtown this weekend check it out.

I think we get comfortable in our eating habits and forget or are afraid to try new things....

be Brave, try something new.

End of Summer Pictures

I'm sorry, but seriously - I love these kids!!

This is us messing around with the camera one day after church.  Take advantage of the warm weather and sunshine while you can.

 His karate moves.

I bet you can't tell that these two are related.

Zoo Adventures

Jaxon would not take a drink and risk the Lion's mouth.  Colby was proving you could do it without incident.  Jax wasn't convinced.

We love to see the Tigers.  They are everyone's favorite.

Everytime we come to the zoo Kyah has to pose for a picture on this statute... everytime.

For Me??

It was a typical Monday afternoon....

I had just dropped my baby off at his first day of Kindergarten... I had made it all the way

home without crying... I had not fallen apart in front him or in the school...

I was brave!

To my complete surprise these are what I received as a reward....

How sweet is it that someone had recognized that it was a hard day and gone out of their way to do something nice to make me smile....

Did you know I absolutely LOVE flowers... don't tell, but it's one of my secret girl indulgences.

Love them!

Box Elder Campground & Brigham City Pool

This is our first attempt at tent camping.  The kids have camped with their grandparents, but usually in a camp trailer.  Out of lack or equipment and possibly fear I have never taken the kids camping.  This summer I bought a tent and we packed up and tried it out.  The kids did great.  Kyah was a little hard to get to sleep and Jaxon woke up pretty early, but really other than that they did fantastic for their first time.

(This picture is taken thru the tent screen, but I love her morning hair.)  

What a happy bunch!

We camped Friday night and then Saturday we drove in to Brigham City and went to the pool.  These two little fishes just can't get enough.

Ready. Set. Jump! 

My poor oven

and this

I seriously think that my oven needs a weekend off.
