Wet 'n Wild Fun

For these two WATER spells FUN!

Seven Peaks with fun Emmy and Grandma.
Annual river raft trip with the Dudleys. Took the kids this year and we all had a blast! Thanks guys.
Salem pond with our Peterson friends.
Sarah's swim party at the fun and beautiful Heaton's pool.

Ava on the water slide. She was up and down that thing about a million times that night all by herself.
These two were inseparable.

Scotty and I doin' some pretty sweet tricks!
(OK so mine was just a dorky dive but Scott pulled off a nice handstand on top of the waterfall and some cool flips.) Oh and this is the waterfall the kids have all jumped off of. Yeah, even little tiny Ava! To bad I didn't get a picture of them...so brave! :)
And if we're not out somewhere doing this, Luke and Ava can usually be found at home totally soaked...stripped down to their undies...playin' in the mud or pool or sprinkler..or sink!

My Little Summer Sweeties





I'm so lucky to have such talented photographer friends. Thanks Rosemarie. When I mentioned to her how cute it would be to get a couple shots of the kids and dogs with this sweet old truck parked across the street from our house, she grabbed her camera and shot these darling pictures for me. I love them all. Can't wait to get them printed off and framed.

Jackson Hole

This has to be one of my most favorite views! Love, love, love it up there.
Sunday the kids and I drove up to Jackson Wyoming with Grandma Barker, Emmy, and Nana. We had the greatest time! Our Castagno cousins had lots of fun planned for us. Thanks guys! We did a whole lot of 4wheelin', swimmin', pig chasin', wagon and stage coach ridin', and of course a whole lot o good eatin'.

Swimming at Jackson Lake Lodge. I I think Luke and Ava would have lived on those 4wheelers if I'd have let them.
Playin' at the Lake.
My favorite picture of the trip! Little Ava on our lighting storm chuck wagon ride. By the look on that face you know she was in heaven. Ooh, we ate the best steaks ever mmm!
Ava loooved the crazy pigs.
Stage coach ride around town. Thanks Torie and "that man":) Adam.

Last Wedding/Flower Post. I promise!


I can't help myself. I had fun today. Maybe it's the whole getting a break from filling the dishwasher or folding clothes and doing a little more out of the ordinary/fun job. Weddings are just so...magical. I always find myself getting wrapped up in all the commotion and anticipation of how it is all going to come together. It's like a weird adrenalin rush for me. I just love making things pretty and seeing people happy. Don't get me wrong I do love filling the dishwasher and folding clothes, it gives me that magical...Cinderella feeling. :)
