Chicks night out.

So it was my sister Megan's birthday on the 23rd so we decided to have a chicks night out with the sisters and my mom. We went to Mama Mia(Almost as good as the play) and they we went to Tempanyaki and I got my sushi fix-well it is a full fledged addiction at this point, but anyway. We had a bunch of fun just hanging out together-we don't do it enough because we all have husbands who are a little selfish of our time. It was great to be able to have a get-together hopefully we can do it a little more often!

Remember me?

I got this fun little thing from Abby's blog-so leave a comment so that I don't look like a loser and I can have a good laugh.

1. Add a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments. I can't wait to see what people remember

This one is for you Kristie.





I promised my friend Kristie that I would show her some of the pictures of my garden-she is convinced that I am a good gardener-anyway I do a garden because I love it not because I am good at it! This year we planted:
Peppers
Tomatoes
Strawberries
Watermelon
Pumpkins
Zuchini
Squash
Beans
Peas
Radishes
Herbs
Cucumbers
and carrots-that never work.
Here are the pics to me they all look like weeds but they are all vegetables I promise.

THE BIG 6-2!


Yesterday was my mom's 62nd birthday-mom you don't look a day over 60-just kidding we love you and happy birthday. Anyway, for her birthday the family was all together for the first time in a long time and we decided to go out to dinner all 20 of us(Not 21 like it should be, because Jared is out of town on business. We decided to go to the pizza factory at the junction, luckily we had a private room with that many kids. After we ate dinner we decided to bowl at Fat Cats and it was a crazy and a ton of fun.Thanks to aunt Brittany for taking Tenley home-since she is such a menace.

Classical skating


Jade texted me last night and we decided to go to classic skating today(or as Pacey calls it Classical skating). So I called my sister Brittany to see if her two boys wanted to come with us because I knew that the older one was just going to be babysitting the younger one. It is really fun at classic during the day though-instead of skating they can bring bikes and scooters, Tenley has a little bike that Jade gave her that she loves so we took that and all the scooters for the boys. We stayed there for a couple of hours and had a bunch of fun.

4th of July 4.5-Upgrade




So as I mentioned before that the 4th of July was a little random(I also forgot to mention that the 4th of July is JBJ's favorite holiday) needless to say JBJ was a little bummed out that the 4th didn't go as good as he thought. So on Saturday my brother-in-law Jared called me and asked if we wanted to have a BBQ and we said sure, they all came over and I made some dinner. I made a meal of burgers, shrimp salad(as good as my grandmas-that she is famous for), beet and edamame salad, grilled corn on the cob(JBJ made that though), and I finished it off with the best homeade strawberry shortcake that everyone there had ever had-I was quite proud of my little meal that I had made it was quite delicious if I do say so my self, after the fact I thought of taking some pictures like the Pioneer Woman but forgot so you will all just have to imagine it in your head. After dinner we played some playstation and then did even more fireworks(do kids ever get sick of the same firework over and over?). So all in all 4th of July 4.5 was an upgrade.

4th of July









Now on to the 4th of July and all it's randomness. So in my mom and dads ward they do a neighborhood breakfast were they make these scones that are the best scones ever-the problem was that my mom and dad were up at Bear Lake, we decided to go any way even though my mom and dad were not home-and the scones were delicious. After breakfast we went to the Clearfield parade(We go to that because at Layton they only give out taffy-seriously the only reason that you go to a parade as a kid is for all the random candy). We went home after that to have a cool down time and to make Tenley take a nap-she was a little on the evil side. We went back over to Clearfields festivities(not the best choice)let the kids throw some money down the toliet, then went back home to give evil another nap. So usually we have a big family barbeque but everyone was other places so my sister Brittany told us to come over to her step mother-in-laws for dinner and then do some fire works-a little on the random side. The cherry on the top of this strange day was the kids were hungry on the way home so we stopped at Wendy's to feed them then proceeded to sit on the grass, eat, and watch the fireworks. The day was fun in it's randomness.

The 3rd of July

Mya, Mason, and Pacey






We have had a crazy weekend so I am going to take it one day at a time. On thursday the 3rd Jade and Nick were having a little get together so we went over to their house that night. When we got there Nick wanted JBJ to come to Joann and Ken's to see the landscaping and I just had to go up I have not been up to North Ogden for like 6 years, and I about freaked out-I can not believe how many houses there are up there-Crazy! Then we went down to check out my old house-it is so weird to live in a house for 16 years and then go back and have it look totally different and foreign to you-it is almost a little sad. After the jaunt back up to North Ogden we went back to Jick's had pizza, made smores, and did fire works it was really fun, and after each of the fire works Tenley would clap and say yay-it was adorable.
