Visiting Lehi in July

Operation: ESCAPE the heat! It's so hot in Mesquite, we are feeling a little cooped up in the summer. Cass worked a 72 hour shift. home for 24 hours and back for another 72...I asked him...what are we doing to do...and he said "You can go visit your mom" SOLD! We were packed and out the door that morning. Short, spontaneous trips are the best!

Both the boys cried/whined this whole trip. Pictures are good at hiding what really happened. Haha we drove up to Tibblefork reservoir. They just added a bunch of sand for sandy beaches. Cole cried the whole time because he wanted other peoples boats. All we brought was sand toys...Not cool enough, MOM!... spoiled kids 

Cole LOVES riding on the walker in the cemetery looking at all the spinys "windmills" on the graves. 

Cole loves the lawnmower!

Gram hung the hammock in the trees. It was cool and relaxing. Gram swung us for a long time. 

Cole: "Mom, where's my boat?"

Pulling himself up! Exploring the world on a different level

The Jackson twins! Cora and Charlette. They are so sweet and cuddley!

Somehow Cole always ends up naked in Grams front yard.

HAHA missionary elder brunt went for a swim at the Godnick Twins birthday party! I didn't get a picture of those cuties! They sure are cute, well mannered kids! It was their 5 year birthday!

Elder Brian Brunt is HOME! It was good to see him! He gave a good homecoming talk. We love Brian!

Cole loves Andrew.

Who's adorable kid is this?!?! So cute I could eat him up!

July 4th, 2018

Its all fun and games until someone gets hurt! Last minute we found out that the Bunkerville water balloon fight was on the 3rd of July. So being spontaneous we hurry and threw the kiddie pool into the back of the truck, fill up 230 water balloons with the cool, new bunch of balloons and away we went! We had NO IDEA what we were getting ourselves into! We started at the church parking lot (not really knowing what to do) Cole and I got into the back of the truck and started driving, we rounded the first corner and WHAM BAMMM Cole took a water balloon RIGHT TO THE FACE and exploded. He was screaming/balling. I hurry and threw him into the cab through the back window. Then I continued to get pelted by balloons in every direction. We got to a stopping point and I took my phone out and started to record the boys who were both screaming and then BAM a water balloon hit my phone right out my hand, flying, and hitting Beau, which made him scream louder. It was quite the experience! Then we came home and had a fun "toddler approved" water balloon fight with the twins. Cole had a lot more fun this time. Then we did Sparklers and snakes. The kids loved it!

The actual 4th of July we went to the Bunkerville Park. They had kid races and snow cones. It was Beau's nap time so during the crawler race, he just CRIED!!! hahaa didn't even move an inch. Then Cole took 2nd place! He started in first but then got out ran. Ha it was awesome. He got a little metal and cotton candy. The Jensens invited us over for night time fireworks. They were awesome! There wasn't supposed to be an illegals...but somehow they showed up. Whitney was so mad! Which made it even funnier. I thought the boys were going to be scared...but they didn't mind them! BUT I pulled a really big mom fail. Even after Whitneys mom told me to put shoes on Cole...I didn't. He stepped on 3 HOT HOT HOT sparklers. His foot is branded now. He has 3 bad burns that are blistered. My mommy heart was so broken. He cried for a solid 2 hours. They are slowly getting better though! Yay! Here are some pictures. :)

Gram time

Cole was greatly anticipating Gram's arrival. So he drew Gram a picture. Gram is so fun when she comes to visit! The fun starts immediately! 

She lets Cole help with everything and he loves it! 

It is so hot in Mesquite during the summer, that the only thing to do outside is go swimming! This was Beau's first time being so adventurous! He was crawling all over the place, even into the deep water. 

Gram took this picture of this cutie. 

Gram's vacations always start out with a trip to Walmart. We got this bubble maker and the boys were intrigued. Beau put his face right up to the bubbles and had soap all over his hair.
