I choose the octopus...

That is what Shaun was saying when i climbed into bed last night. I love it!! I just got into bed and started laughing. Then I thought I should take a picture of him and the 6 pillows that he sleeps with every night. He complains of not getting a good night sleep, I wonder why. Every time he rolls over all the pillows go with him. Good thing we have a king bed so there is still room for me!
A few nights before he woke me up by calling my name over and over. As soon as I said what, he said how about you come lay down next to me. I told him I had been sleeping next to him for a couple of hours already. So he said good then rolled over and that was the end of that. The best was when I was getting in bed a few months ago. I took my socks off and threw them across the bed, he reached up and caught them. It surprised me because he had been asleep for a while and it was dark, I don't know how he did it. After a second of me laughing he asked "did I just catch this?" He hardly remembered anything the next morning.

The last few days!

We went up to our friends cabin last night and played in the mountains. Anna had a really good time throwing rocks in the river and playing on the teter totter with Lilly. We had a great time watching the kids and catching up.





This was a fun teter totter, it went up and down, but it also went around in circles. We had a great time on it.

Anna's hair is finally long enough that I can pull it up into a little pony tail on the top of her head. This is her 2nd pony tail.
Anna will ride on the cart any way possible, as long as it's not where she is suppose to ride in it. Luckily for her, Grandpa let's her do what she wants. I guess that is why he is her favorite.
I had to post this picture too because I am SO excited about it. Our new thermostat came with the central air that was put in this morning. Our swamp cooler had some minor issues and Shaun didn't want to spend the time fixing it since we were getting the central air. It has been a HOT week without either one, but now it's nice and cool!

St. George trip with the girls!!

Myself, Anna, Jen & Madelyn enjoyed a week in St. George with just the girls. Relaxing? Not so much. Next time we do a girls trip, it will definitely be a big girls trip, leave the cute kids with dad. We left at 8:30 Memorial Day night so the kids could sleep on the way down. Anna finally fell asleep in Cedar City, good plan.
Tuesday morning we met up with Marissa, Josh and their 2 kids to go boating. We had a great time playing on the tube and soaking up the sun. All the kids fell asleep and gave the moms a little break in the afternoon...not Anna! She was all over the place. We will be lucky if we are invited to go boating with Marissa again.
The next few days, Jen & I and the girls had fun swimming, shopping, finding new splash pads and parks to keep the girls happy. When Friday came we were ready to leave and come home to dad. Here are a few pictures of our St. George week.
