I just learned how to make tu tus, much to Mark's dismay, and I have had so much fun with it. I made one for Makenna and she is more than happy to model it, she is very into all things girly. The tu tu on the hanger, is for my little niece who's birthday is coming up very soon!!!
We had the chance to go down to Utah for Labor Day weekend and spend some time down there with family. Mark's older brother and his wife were very gracious hosts and we had a great time! We all got to go out to Thanksgiving Point and let the kids see the Dinosaur Museum there. They had a total blast playing in the water, sculpting their own prehistoric environment and they got to dust off some dino bones! They are so amazing together and it was fun to get them together again! The adults got to go out on a date to a Jon Schmidt concert! AMAZING MUSIC!!!! We had a great time and it was so nice to leave the kids home, though we do love them tons! Jamie's parents were wonderful to come watch all seven of the kids so we could do that and my gratitude is very great and deep for their kindness! Here are a few pics of the concert (Jon actually plays upside down on a couple of the songs! AMAZING!!) Here are some of the family as well.
I had the chance to go over to Boise for a baby shower this past weekend. My sister-in-law Angie and her husband Keven are going to have their first little baby in October. It was so fun spending time with them and getting away for some much needed time alone. They got some great things and baby Carter is going to have a great selection of stylin' new clothes when he gets here! We can't wait to see him!
