Life 365 | Week 32

For Family Home Evening tonight we talked about Service and brightening the day for others. We made marshmallow pops and took them around to some of our neighbors/friends and I truly hope the kids learned something!

The roses are pretty much gone from our yard – but there was a few petals left on this one today and with the raindrops – I just had to capture it. Such beauty in endurance.

I really do love the rain and overcast days. The last little rainstorms we have gotten haven’t really cooled it down much though and I can’t wait until Fall. The kids and I just sat on the porch for awhile today, watching the rain fall and watching the shapes that it made in the puddles!

It was the kids last swimming lesson today. I’m proud of the kids and how far they have come. They are both a lot more comfortable in the water. Next year we will have to make sure they take in a couple of sessions of lessons. It was so exciting to see JJ jump off the diving board and LOVE IT! Beth jumped off once and that was enough for her – maybe next year!

I was so excited to be able to go to the Blue Cricket Designs – Girl’s Night Out event tonight. My parents came up to pick up Lane and so they were able to watch the kids while Joey was doing his podcast so I could go! It was held at The Chocolate and it was so nice to get away. We learned to make Washer Necklaces. Fabric Rosettes, and we recovered some notepad holders! Plus we had some amazing cake (I got the Red Velvet – yummy) and an amazing bag of coupons and fun crafty extras! It was a wonderful night of fun!

We didn’t accomplish much today. We just decided to stay home and lounge! Grandpa and Grandma Sorensen and Lane left today and we just didn’t do much. I forgot to take a picture today – so I’ll share a couple of photos I took yesterday morning. As part of the kids’ swimming lessons – they give a Family Free Day for the family to swim at the Scera pool. We were excited that Joey took a couple of hours away from work yesterday to go with us. It was a fun water park and the kids really loved splashing around and it was just a great relaxing few hours. Joey even bought us lunch at McDonalds (the kids’ favorite) before heading back to work!

My favorite part of the Girls Night Out was learning to make these fabulous fabric rosettes! Beth loved them too and we made a couple for her to wear to church today. She felt beautiful and I felt crafty and it was just so fun!

Life 365 | Week 31

The kids started their swimming lessons today. JJ has had some swimming experience since they have a special ed program at BYU the last couple of years in school – but Beth has never had lessons. JJ was pretty comfortable in the water but Beth was pretty scared. But it went well and they both had a good time!

JJ’s pack meeting was at the park this month. JJ got some more belt loops and I’m really proud of him. I’m happy that he is enjoying scouts. We stuck around a little while after to play on the playground!

Beth played at Annie’s house today and she had such a good time. She always loves to have someone to play with and being able to go to someone else’s house is always a treat!

We worked on more activities for the Summer Challenge on education.com today! We made math bugs and the kids loved it!

The kids couldn’t wait to have their campout on our lawn tonight. All day they were so excited! We had hotdogs and smores which we ate outside – picnic style! We looked at the stars and spotted some constellations. We told some stories and played games and then slept in the tent! It was a great time!

We took Trax to the Salt Lake City library today. The kids were so excited about all the books and how fun the building is. They loved the fun children section and riding the glass elevator! JJ loved looking at all the comic books! It was a fun afternoon! In the evening, Grandpa & Grandma Sorensen, Clint, and Lane showed up to spend the night! It was nice to visit and have them with us.

Grandpa and Grandma got Lane off to his Freedom Academy and headed home while we were in church. So a short visit, but it was nice to have them here. Tonight there was some incredible lighting in the sky at sunset!

Project 365 | Week 25

What do you do when are gone for over a week? Laundry, laundry, and more laundry! I think it’s going to take me a couple of weeks to get caught up with some design stuff, laundry, and getting the house clean.

Today was JJ’s first day of Summer School. He was so excited! It’s an exciting thing that they have going this year. The Alpine School District and BYU have combined together to offer the special education students some more education for 5 weeks this summer. It gives BYU Students who are going to school to teach special ed the chance to actually work with students. JJ’s teacher, Ms. Raines was in his classroom and he was so excited to see her! He also has a new teacher, Miss Sharp. He seemed to have a really great day and was excited to show me his fun artwork!

I’m coming down with a cold and just wasn’t myself today. Headache and runny nose and just so tired! So I didn’t accomplish a whole lot today but the kids were amazingly well. They played together so good and just let me rest. Plus they were happy with their not so nutritional lunch (since I just wasn’t up to making much). They loved their cheesy fries and grapes and apple juice – hey, at least they got some fruit!

I love Pajama Days! I completely slacked off today and didn’t get up in time to get JJ off to school. Instead we just all hung out in our pajamas today. We played, watched movies, and just accomplished NOTHING. I think I just need this kind of thing every once in a while!

Today was the day! We have now been married for 10 years! I did a lot of reflecting today as I caught up on some housework. I love Joey so much! I’m so happy that we are married – he is my best friend. After the kids went to bed, and Cody and Becki came over to tend, we went to a late movie. We saw THE PROPOSAL with Sandra Bullock and I LOVED it. I haven’t seen a movie (chick flick) that I liked so much in a long time. It was awesome time and I am so glad I got to watch it with Joey. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

We went swimming at the Fitness Center today. The kids really love being in the water. I really should get them lessons some time – but for now Joey and I are trying to teach a little bit. They had a great time and Beth cried all the way home because she didn’t want to stop.

Joey came up with an awesome idea today. He’s really a wonderful dad! He came up with a lunch treasure hunt! I made the lunch and he hid each piece with clues for the kids to find them on a paper bag. Then the kids found the item and placed it in their bag. When they had finished the hunt, we spread a blanket out on the living room and watched a movie (Treasure Planet) while eating our picnic. The kids loved it. A wonderful thing for them to do on Father’s Day! 🙂
