Ride it

This week I have spoiled Bella and my husband a little bit.

Why not right? They both deserve it.

I took Bella to Jungle Jim's The dirtiest place ever!

(I can't elieve that was my first job)

Then we went to Incredible Pizza and Bella was to little to ride the rides there but we played games, ate lots and got this sweet picture.

And then my husband bought something for himself that he can ride.

He found something he loves more than me now.

Well my spoiled family, it's my turn to go take a ride to the spa and get a pedi.

Baby info

We just found out today.

I am so excited we are having another girl!!

Bella kept saying it was a brother but when we told her boys don't play with barbies and they don't like the color pink she was pretty excited to have a sister coming.

I'm with the band

We went to the Utah Arts Festival to see this amazing band.

You can listen to their music here.

Ya that amazing voice, I like to call her my friend.

She is so good she gets 80 year old men to get up from the audience and dance his little heart out.

Here is her beautiful face.

Here is two more beautiful faces.

She even got them dancing their little legs off.
And here is an Ashlee sandwich, Tara is in the middle.
Way to go A.C. You did awesome!

North Dakota

I know this post will overwhelm you with excitement.

When we went to North Dakota this is pretty much all we saw. (I know so exciting)

But then we saw this huge cow on the side of the mountain.

Even though it was so windy we could barely stand up we figured we better take advantage of the huge cow.
Then there was more fields and more fields so we decided why not take pictures of ourselves while driving. ( I know mom, we were being safe! LOL)

And that's pretty much all there is to tell about the Dakota's.

Go ahead and tone down your excitement now.

Vacay

Since we bought our trailer, we still haven't used it.

We decided to get our money's worth and go somewhere.

Why we choose the Dakota's don't ask me.

( I get to choose next year and were hitting up the beach)

I will start with South Dakota since that is the most interesting.

This is the coolest place for little kids. They had a castle and cute little animals everywhere. Bella though she was in Disneyland, it was called Story Book Island. Best of all it was free.

Mt. Rushmore. I was pretty impressed.

Bella got to be a JR. Ranger and got a badge. And my Dad got to go on stage because he is a Veteran. Pretty cool.

We got a tour of the Fire Department.

Another thing that floated Bella's boat was the Dinosaur park. They only had 5 Dino's but it was free and pretty cool for her.

And lastly we went inside a cave. Scariest thing in my life. It was so steep I wasn't sure I was going to make it out of there alive but it was a fun adventure.

Marathon

My husband told me that he was going to run a Marathon. I of course just thought he was just talking crazy. But guess what, he did it! I am so proud of him.

I can't even walk 26.2 miles and he ran it. I have to admit my husband is pretty Amazing.

James and Seth. They finished the Marathon together.

He only got a bloody toe and a hurt knee out of it so I'd say it was a success.

Maybe one of these days I will get to run it with him.

Sweet Zoo Day

My sweet, sweet mom bought me a season pass to the Zoo.

I had the day off today, so why not go?

Here are the highlights of the day.

Eating sweet cotton candy

Bella and her Grandma on the train.

Bella the gopher

This sweet little baby put his face to the window and gave me a kiss.

I wanted to take him home so bad!

The baby Elephant loved the sweet strawberries.

My sweet baby girl

Our first ride on the carousel. She had to have the Zebra. She named him Marty.

We had lots of fun and I am super excited to go anytime we want thanks to my momma!
