Last week of Summer Fun...














The week before school started was a busy and fun one. We had some cousins sleep over and so we did an outdoor movie and they all slept outside in the tent with Kevin. He is always so good to go along with my crazy ideas. Especially since I slept in our comfy bed with the little ones.
We also had cousins come from Texas and we went to Temple Square and City Creek.
That same week Kevin and I took the kids to a Bee's game where we rode trax. We rode trax twice that week and I have had the my public transit fix for now.
We had a great week!

Lucy's Allergic Reaction...



One night I noticed a few spots on Lucy's legs and so I watched it and the next morning she had a full on outbreak. I called the doctor and they told me it was an allergic reaction to something and to give her some benadryl. I continued to watch it and the medicine did not seem to help and she was getting worse. I took her into the doctor and explained that she had some pretty nasty diapers and nothing else. No fever. Nothing. She said that there was a pretty intense bug going around with diarrhea and Lucy was having a reaction to it. It took three or four days but it all cleared up. But man did it look like she had a serious case of something gross. Poor girl. It just looked bad. It never bothered her though.

Love this sight and Love my kids...


I walked by and saw this and without asking too. Love it!

Classic Water Park & Skating...

Last summer I bought a groupon for Classic. Well I am not great with these coupons and I let it expire. But to my amazement they let me still use it. Amber brought her kids too and we had a great time.
We got there by 1:00 and did not leave the water slides until 5:00. Cole and Maddie were loving the slides and I loved that it wasn't crowded and I could just sit and watch them go down on the lawn while hanging out with little Owen and Lucy. I gave Amber the hard part of chasing Garrett and Dailey in the kiddie pool. I am not sure but everything seemed so funny to me yesterday. Especially when I had Amber's empty car seat by me and I had Owen on my lap and Lucy sitting by my side. I was on a hill and the next thing I know the car seat is flying down the hill. This guy sitting across the way about died. By the look on his face I was sure he thought a baby was in there. When I wasn't panicked and was laughing he looked concerned. He finally got up and went down the hill to get the car seat. He brought it back to me and I said "thank you, good thing there wasn't a baby in there". He didn't think that was funny.
We headed inside and had pizza and rootbeer that came with my deal and than let the kids play arcades and skate. I was laughing so hard watching Cole skate. He must have fell a hundreds of times but he kept getting up and trying again. He did not want any help. Too cool for that and didn't like it if I smiled or chuckled when he fell. I tried to hide it but sometimes I couldn't help but laugh.








I had such a good time, even with Day peeing her pants while playing air hockey. Guess the game was too intense to take a potty break.

Backyard Project...






Our sand box was beginning to be a pretty sore sight. The wood that was bordering the edges was rotting away. It was a dangerous place with nails coming out of the wood and slivers waiting to happen. So Kevin and his Dad took on the project. They pulled out the old wood beams and extended the sand box and bordered it with cement blocks. It looks so good. We now just need to order sand to fill the area that we extended out past the slide. They did this in the dead heat of the day.
 They are so great. The kids and I watched from inside than later came out and had a water balloon fight. We didn't help at all. But we are so grateful for the help. It would have taken twice as long!
