Free time

So last week I had a break in-between my classes (yes I am back in school) (doing Accounting and I got an A and a A- in my classes wahoo!) (going to Colorado State University) and Brandin had a long weekend from his class because we are in Utah so we have an extra holiday called pioneer day! We decided to take advantage of both of us being free so we went a little crazy and were busy busy busy!!! 

We randomly decided to go camping on Friday night, at Whiting campground. We asked if we could get a cheap campground because we were related but they just laughed! lol. 


Carter making goofy faces at me. Silly boy. 



Kenna snuggling with her daddy :) 



Brandin gave her her first taste of marshmallow. She wasn't too sure what she thought about it. 


We came home from camping, cleaned the car out, and relaxed for a bit, then we decided to go to a drive in movie since Carter has never been and they were showing planes 2 and Maleficent. 
Kenna chilling on my chair that she stole from me. 



Carter decided to lay on the hood of the car to watch the movie. 


Sunday after church we went to a boardwalk marsh area that is a couple of miles from us that we had heard about. It was so pretty! It's a natural spring. 









Monday morning we got up and headed to Antelope Island in the Great Salt Lake because it is on our bucket list of Utah and we are running out of time before we might leave here. 

They had bison that were free roaming. So pretty! 



Carter was so excited to see them! 




We went and checked out the original ranch that was built there. 





Then we went to try out the water and see if it really does make you float. I will say that is is really dirty and I can't swim, so I didn't even want to try, but Brandin made me and I'm so glad he did. It is crazy how you can just lay on  your tummy with your arms and legs out, not move, and still float! Carter was so proud of himself because he though he had finally learned how to swim. ha ha . 


I promise she really was having fun, Brandin just took a funny candid pict. lol



floating when I tried to just sit down. So crazy! 


Brandin and Carter floating too :) 


When we started to leave a huge storm started blowing and raining, we couldn't even see the road for a while!

More Happenings. .

My pictures have been piling up, so it's time to get my blog on! lol ;) 

Kenna during nap time. How did I luck out and get such a cute little girl? Oh yeah, she has a hot daddy and looks a lot like him. Lucky girl! 


Wymount does weekly activities for the kids, one week they did a little carnival. Carter had a ton of fun. They even did balloon animals. He had to get a red puppy of course (his fav color and fav animal)



Throwing the balls at the milk jugs. 


Brandin's mom and Grandma came to Utah to go to the Huntsman, so Holli came to play with us for the evening! Carter loved every min of it. . 


Kenna didn't really seem to care one way or another. ha ha


One day Kenna and I were matching at church, so of course we had to take some picts. :) 




On my birthday both of the kiddos fell asleep at the same time for 2 whole hours! I knew when I looked back at that memory I wouldn't believe myself, so I took picts. 


This is the first nap I think Carter has had in over a year. I didn't know what to do with myself. I was able to watch a movie and craft my heart out! Then that night we had babysitters and Brandin took me out for all you can eat sushi. It was glorious!



Another Wymount activity, they had the Bean museum bring some animals to show off. 


Carter was able to go up and help show off a clue. ..

7th Anniversary!

Since our Anniversary was the day after the 4th of July and we had a house full of people, we were not able to do much alone time celebration. But Brandin was super sweet and got me flowers and a cute candt message. I sure lucked out with getting the best hubby ever. :)

Brandin's Birthday

On Brandin's actual birthday we had my sis Cyera, his bro Gared, the In-Laws, and his sis Shell and her family at our place, so Carter and I decided to surprise Brandin and we threw him a little family party the night before. The party included cupcakes, a birthday hat, and of course, presents! Sadly, he wanted to go eat at GoodWood and they were closed for the night :( (but he did get Tucano's a couple days before, so I'm counting it lol) 




Birthday Boy with his Birthday crown that Carter made him wear to school . ha ha
