Zipline Party
Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa van, we had a great time at the zipline party! Their neighbor's had an awesome setup in their backyard; a zipline, climbing wall and a little train they pulled behind a 4 wheeler. It was so much fun!
Max even rode the zipline all by himself and he wasn't even scared! He is so daring! I went down and was screaming the whole time! Me and Max went one more time together.


Sadie loved the train. She could have sat on it all night. Here's a picture of Grandma van driving the train. We had so much fun on the zipline we didn't have time for the climbing wall.
We left their house and went back to Grandma and Grandpa van's for fireworks and snowcones. What a fun way to celebrate the 24th of July!

Sadie Bug
At 18 mos Ssadie is talking a lot more. It's fun to hear her say new words. Some of the words she likes to say are: Mama, Dada, (We haven't figured out what she calls Max yet...my best guess is "Shaw") Nana(banana), Sheese(cheese), Coke(horrible I know), Bompa(Grandpa), Ya, No, Ahuh, Ok, DaDu(Thank you)
She is always smiling and she's very even tempered. She walks on her toes a lot and she loves to sit in the corner on top of our speaker by the tv...it's her spot. She loves her big brother Max and is mimiking him all the time. She looks up to him a lot. She is a good little girl. She loves to dance and loves the music up really loud in the car. She likes her teeth brushed and she loves to sit in my hair chair and pretend she's getting her hair done.
She's a cutie!
Cabin Sweet Cabin
We've had a few more trips to the cabin with my family. We went over the 4th of July. We love going up there. We went up with my parents, Jeff and Ash and her Mom and Don and Kelsey brought her friend Josh. We went to the resevoir and went swimming and then rode the river.
It was a blast!




I was daring enough to take Max with me and he was giggling the whole time. He's not afraid of much. We had fun riding down the river,we rode down with Jeff, Ashlee and Ashlee's Mom. It was great!
Max loved playing Lincoln Logs with Grandpa Turville and Uncle Jeff. They were showing Max how to build a real cabin.
Can't go to the cabin without doing pedicures!

We made homemade icecream in a bag for dessert. My mom was testing out recipes on us for girls camp. It turned out great...I'll post the recipe on cornylittlecrafts. And we always end the evening with a hilarious game night...you'd think we were drunk...we just laugh at the stupidest things!
We also went the weekend after the 24th. Amy and Todd brought Todd's parents, Gordon and Roberta and also their friends Bart and Kandra and two boys. It was a fun weekend to go up because Preston had Napoleon Day's going on. We hung out at the resevoir again during the day and then drove down to preston that evening.





We went to the parade and to the Famous Preston Rodeo. The kids loved watching the horses and cowboys at the rodeo and they loved the candy at the Parade. They had a huge carnival at the park. It was pretty cool. The corndogs at the carnival were tasty! 

Jeff and Ashlee were great entertainers. They are both so good with kids. Jeff played cowboy golf with them and Ash brought up little art projects to keep them busy.
My mom always brings stuff for them to do too. She made these little things called flibbers...I think that's what they are called. They are made out of newspaper and you just wave them in the air or smack each other with them...kinda funny. She's so cute...she's outside having flibber fights with the kids!

At the bottom of the hill there was a bunch of cows and Max and Jeff got out of the car to check them out and get a closer look...it was pretty cute...besides the cow poop on their shoes.
More great weekends at the cabin....many more to come! We missed you Kristin, Jared, Brayden and Jack!
It was a blast!

Summer Fun....
This summer has been crazy...just like everyone else I'm sure! We have had a lot of fun though, can't complain! Here's what we've been up to this summer!
We went on a tour with my family of the Salt Lake Cemetery. It was pretty interesting to see how many neat people are buried there and to hear their stories. We learned about some of our own relatives and other historical people that are buried there. We even hiked up the hill a ways to see Pres. Hinkley's grave. It was pretty cool. (Max and Brad are not in the pic because Max decided to poop his pants while we were there....Brad did the honors)
We've gone to the park for a picnic with Grandma Turville and Kelsey...we've got to get our Taco Time or Cutler's fix for the week!

We went to Cherry Hill with Kelsey. It was so nice to have someone to hang out with and someone to help with the kids! Thanks Kels. Max and Sadie both loved the blue slides and Max thought the Pirate ship was pretty cool. I could have sat in the Lazy River all day!





The kids have loved playing outside...when it's not so hot! They love to go swimming in their little blowup pool and play on the swingset. Sadie loves bubbles. Max was trying out his new bubble gun and shooting bubbles for Sade.

We took a trip to the Aquarium to check out the stingrays. Max was scared to touch them. It was a neat place to go. The kids liked checking out the fish, there were even sharks. We went to the Mayan for dinner after and we watched the divers. What a fun day!
