We had a great and busy summer. Mylee started walking right after her birthday and from that point on she has quickly changed from my sweet little baby to my sweet energetic toddler. All summer she has progressively started saying so many words, and now she pretty much trys to say whatever we say. Right now she loves to say Hi and says it all the time. She recently picked up a couple of words that I say Oh shoot and crap. I am quickly realizing that I need to watch what I say. Its amazing how fast they learn to do so many things. The good and the bad. This summer we spent a lot of time playing outside, going for walks(which she loves to do because she gets to walk tramp now, it is the cutest thing to watch), going to the park, swimming, playing with friends and spent a lot of time with family. I can't believe how big Mylee is getting. I wish the time could slow down its going to fast. We are so thankful for her. Since having her I have realized what is most important in life which is family. I am so thankful for her and Jesse they bring so much joy and happiness into my life. I love you guys!! Here are some pictures from over the summer.
We celebrated the fourth of July while we were in Vernal, so that morning we took Mylee to the fourth of July parade. She really liked when the horses came by and other than that it was hard to keep her occupied because all she wanted to do was walk on the road. Later we also celebrated my grandma Carma's birthday we had a BBQ at my mom's house and just hung out. Its always so good to see my grandma she is the neatest lady and I love her so much!!
A couple of my friends and I took our kids to the children's museum at the gateway. It was so fun and Mylee loved it. They have different rooms that kids can go to and play with all sorts of different things. There was a room with balls and they had so many things that you could put them in and watch them go through tubes and stuff, Mylee loved it, I would try and take her to another room and she would go running back to that room. She had so much fun. After that we took them to the water fountains to run and play in, I didn't think Mylee would like it very much but I was wrong she loved it and would go running through the water letting it hit and splash her and she would just laugh it was so cute and funny.
Every year Julie has started a tradition where we get all the girls together for a Girls weekend out. It is one of my favorite things that we do, it is so fun to get together and just hang out. We usually go to Park City for the weekend which is so fun. This year since we did it the first of June it was really nice weather so we went swimming, of course shopping, went to dinner, hung out and played games, talked and talked and talked, and this year Julie taught us how to make strawberry jam. I love getting together with everyone we have already been able to build great memories and I look forward to all the rest.
Jesse played in the all night-er tournament in vernal over the summer so we went home for that. They didn't play very many games this year and the ones that they did were mostly at night so we didn't get to see very many.
This was at a Bees game that we went to on the 24Th of July. I love the last picture because its a perfect shot of Mylee picking her nose.
We went and did the Pioneer trek with my family in July. Instead of camping we stayed in a Hotel and then during one day we did the trek, and the following day we went to Independence Rock and the visitors center. It was a good experience, it definitely makes you appreciate all the little things that we take for granted. I tried to relate myself to those mothers and fathers that had children that they had to take along. I can't even imagine how hard that would have been. Even when we were there it was really hot and I was trying to make sure that Mylee was drinking enough water to stayed hydrated. All the conditions that they faced would have been so difficult. I have a grateful heart for what they had to endure.
