Delish!

Our friends the Roberts invited the entire Jackman clan over for dinner on Sunday (also RJ's bday). It was absolutely delicious, as always.

Free riding

Ashton has been learning how to ride his bike with out training wheels.  He can do it for a long time - until he quits pedaling and crashes!  We're really proud of him.  He's also saving up his money to buy a motorcycle (motocross bike).  He's been very dedicated!

Happy Birthday

 

Our little girl turns 1 today!  Time goes by faster and faster.  She is our little princess and she loves it.  She loves to play peek-a-boo and to tease her brothers.  She's not quite walking, she just a little timid, but she loves to do "squats" up and down while clapping and saying "ta-da."  Her party is this next weekend so we'll have lots of pictures.

Ragnar Wasatch Back

Aaron competed in the 188 mile relay race this past weekend with a team of friends.  He ran the total equivalent of a half marathon in less than 24 hours. One of his legs is called "the Ragnar" which should say how grueling it was!  His team had major hiccup when one van missed their switch and they had to wait an hour for them to show up - other than that it was a great experience.  We went up to Park City to meet them at the finish line, the kids liked riding the tram down the mountain.  We were really proud of Aaron for this accomplishment!

So cute

I found this while going in through old emails. Ashton was only two months old in this pic! I can't believe how big he was!

White Sox

Ashton is getting better all the time.  He gets two hits every game now (they play two innings) and he's finally caught on to chasing the ball.  He goes after it every time and has had a couple of really good plays.  He was really great a playing catcher - he got to stay pretty much one spot and throw the ball every time someone was up to bat!

Magician

I took the kids to see the library's magic show last week.  Ashton loved being with all the kids.  It was very entertaining!

Poor babies

 

We had some sick kids this past week, RJ and Colty went to the doctor with swolen eyes and a fever of 103. RJ had pink eye and Colty had double ear infections!

My steal

I just happened into DownEast home yesterday and found a steal!  These are Pottery Barn kids suitcases and backpacks.  I got them all for $72.95 (a couple big pieces are my sisters), normally they would have been $598 thats a saving of $525.05!  I do have to cover up the embroidered names, but it's worth it to me!  I'll post the finished product on my craft site.

Beauty

This is what we found Reagan doing Sunday morning while everyone was getting ready for church.  She was completely adoring herself - the way the rest of us do!

Congrats to Chris

First days of Summer

We made a summer plan and this was one of our first activities... mini pizzas! Colten loved to sneak the mini pepperoni out of the bag.

Hiking

Wheeler Creek TrailAaron took me for a hike this last week, it was really beautiful and green. I had a lot of fun, and it was nice to be by ourselves in such a scenic place.

I'm dreaming of...

We're trying to find and affordable trailer - hoping for something retro we can fix up...I don't know that this is what Aaron is envisioning but I sure am!

Here's some more eye candy... Rosie, Polly Dolly, Constance
