I don't have as many picture as I should. I need new batteries in my camera and my silly brain never remembers when I am within 2 feet of a battery-purchasing opportunity. So... I'll fill in with letters. ;)
Here is the little "apartment" for Haley and Ryan's bunny we will be watching for a couple of weeks. Two days later...it doesn't look so nice and tidy anymore. Remmy really just wants to "play" with her, little Chipmunk, or just lick her. ;) She has a leash and yet when we try and let her hop around outside of her house- she wants to go back in! Maybe I should start designing for rabbits.

This is just a fun picture of N in a laundry basket. Sooo silly!

Okay: Here is the run down of my last week- defined largely by the dinners that we ate eat night. Is there something wrong with that? I don't know why those were the main things I remembered and used as "signposts" to my documentation.
July 29th- Funny, shortly after I posted last, my parents surprised us and flew in from Korea! I was doing the laundry when the doorbell rang. I had Weston answer the door. It sounded just like my mom at the door- so I ran upstairs to tell whomever that they were making me sad- and IT WAS THEM! I just started to cry. It's funny how much I still need my mom even now, even at 30. We went to Zupas for dinner.
July 30th- We went back-to-school shopping and stayed up late talking.
July 31st- We had S's baptism! It was wonderful and I need to get pictures from everyone else. We had lots of family come- my grandparents from Idaho and my grandma from Elko. We had siblings and grandparents and wonderful friends. Thanks to all that could make it. We had a terrific speaker and the spirit was SOOO strong. S did amazing! The next day she bore the most beautiful little testimony. She is getting so old! She has dove right into Activity Days and her Faith in God- she already has 1-8 Articles of Faith memorized and two weeks in, already has two requirements completed! I am so proud of her. Oh yeah, we fought for food at Golden Corral, too. The rolls were awesome.
August 1st- We went to church (see above about S's testimony). Ryan and Haley came back and we had Steak and mashed potatoes. It was yummmy!
August 2nd- W had a conference and after we went rock climbing at Irock. Here are the pictures:

Here is my mom. She suddenly notices that people are taking their shoes off and putting other ones on. "You can rent shoes here," she says. "Yes, mom, you can, " I say. My mom disappears into the front office.

Please note: She is wearing a linen shirt and pants. Nice linen shirt and pants. This does not deter my mother. She climbs anyway. Confusing the poor teenage workers in the front office.

Here she is after reaching the top. She fell on her bum at the bottom- it made us laugh.

August 3rd- Mom and Dad went to Park City. I stayed home with the kids. Things were kind of quiet so I went to look for T. She is asleep. She fell asleep hiding evidence to her latest mess/crime. When she woke up she had a marker goatee and mustache. She had unwrapped feminine products (see one between the mirror and the dresser?) and a couple of other odds and ends (S's candy and K's gum) that she was hurriedly hiding when the sandman found her. Good times.

This was N earlier this week- he is actually more in the crawling stage now. Here he demonstrates the yoga plank pose.

He is really good at yoga. And cute.
Wednesday, August 4th, we had Jordan and Erica over with Ryan and Haley. We ate Papa John's pizza and AWESOME salads. We then played Settlers of Catan. Which W and I promptly won. That's a lie. We didn't win. We NEVER win. I'm hoping it's not a reflection of real life. I love the game. I still don't know what you took Jordan....
August 5th we took my parents out for Indian food before they left. My mom and I LOVE Indian food. The men just go along because they love us. (thanks!) Here are my munchkins in the restaurant.
