My Birthday at Bear Lake!

This weekend was my 31st Birthday (yeah I know!!)and We went with Aunt Krystal to their property at Bear Lake It is the most peaceful,Beautiful,and fun place to go. the kids loved the swimming, especially Emily. We had Hot Dogs over the fire with corn on the cob and then a little surprise, Little Birthday cakes from Schmidt's Bakery!! and I had no idea until Emily stated "This was mine and Krystal's idea". on Saturday we were on the water all day, swimming and wave running, and sunburning. but it was a blast. Krystal, Thank You for your love and support and for putting up with us. We Love You! and Thanks to Mike and Patty for letting us enjoy your little piece of Heaven!!

My Birthday at Bear Lake Too!

Week in review...

So it's been a long week! first I went to Girls Camp on Monday and Tuesday
. Wendsday was Zachary's birthday, and Friday, Saturday and Sunday were filled with the 4th festivities. We went to the Murray 4th of July parade,



came home and did our summer creations of the week, a painted shirt and pin wheels.

then we went to Aunt Dianna's for the yearly family party.

then on Sunday we had cake and ice cream for Zachary.

boy what a whirl wind of a week.

summer creations: Sand art

This weeks art project was sand art pictures. we took white contact paper and put a construction paper frame around it and sprinkled it with sand of all different colors, and then put a clear piece of contact paper over it. another hit with Emily. I need to find some kind of art class to put her in or something. She loves to create things.



this is the finished projects! see the joy in Zachary's face.hahahehe!



This is a craft that We came up with for Girls Camp next week. I put one together before so they can put it together up at camp. It's a necklace holder or ribbon holder or what ever the girls would like to do with it.
