Lagoon

Thanks to Nature's Sunshine we were able to enjoy a fun filled day at Lagoon! We took my 2 sisters Jessica and Jerika along so that we could take turns riding rides. I haven't been to Lagoon since high school and was expecting to hate it but we actually had a great time.

I sat out on the water rides...Jerika and Jessica got completely soaked!Jessica and Jerika on the train...
We enjoyed the train not only because it was one of the few rides Paxton could do but because of the animals...they had more wild animals than the zoo.

Andy on the Samari...

Andy and I on the rocket...I swear the anticipation of riding these rides is way more scary than the actual ride itself!

As for Paxton...he enjoyed the ice cream at dinner...

Hanging out with his Aunties...

Riding the carousal...a few times...

And trying to lick the stamp off of his hand!!

2 Years!

3 years ago today we met on a blind date

2 years ago today we were married...

And what a great 2 years it has been!

I love you babe and am looking forward to many more years with you!!

Troublemakers

I can't leave these two alone for a second...

Feeding the ducks

Anyone who knows me well knows that I am not at all fond of birds so I don't know what I was thinking when I suggested feeding the ducks at Salem pond for FHE last week. Well it was a big hit and we went back again Saturday night. There are tons of baby ducks and they are not shy! On Saturday a huge white duck came up and ate bread right out of my hands. Paxton can't quite get the hang of throwing the bread, he just wants to eat it himself...
But we all had a great time!!

Purses

My little sister is going into the purse making business. She makes some really cute stuff (have you seen my diaper bag...she made it!!) Here are some of my recent favorites:
She is only charging $30 each so if you are interested in either one (or the others on her blog) let me know!! Also I have seen the material for some of the other ones that she is making and they are going to be super cute so check out her blog (under Jessica in my family section) for new purses!!

Hogle Zoo

We took Paxton to the zoo on July 17th for his birthday. We had such a great time checking out all of the animals, riding the carousal and train, and raiding the gift shop. It was hard to narrow it down from the 100 pictures that we took but here are some of the highlights!

Paxton loved the carousal and rode it 3 times. He loved that it went up and down. Of course we had to measure him by the monkeys...
I was surprised how aware he was of the animals. He getting up close and personal with the giraffe...
And watching the monkeys run around in their cages!!
We had a great time at the zoo with our little monkey!!

Fiesta Days

Apparently Paxton was not too happy that his mother entered him in the fiesta days baby contest because this is the face he made everytime the camera was pointed his way!! Guess you won't be seeing us on Toddlers and Tiaras anytime soon!
