Date Night Plank Night

Jason and I had a great date night last night. Thanks to my girl, A's. While on vacation she told us about the fad called planking. After stopping for delicious burgers and fries from Firehouse Burgers. Jason and I loaded up the bikes and headed for BYU campus to try our hand at planking. We had a blast riding around campus and posing! Who knows if we are really any good at it or even creative for that matter but it was tons of fun!

I had to have a picture next to this building. This is where I spent most of my time at BYU.

The EFY kids were doing it with us.

What a stud!

Then the camera battery died and all the picture fun came to an end.

Vegas Family Reunion

We had a great vacation with the entire Rees family last week. We stayed in a gigantic ranch house with a pool and trampoline and the biggest swings. Jason and I forgot to make our pact about taking lots of pictures, so the pickings are slim. Aunt Carolyn and Uncle Wes were so much fun. They were like Navie's other parents. Whenever I couldn't find Navie she was with them or grandpa or Ella.
Making decorations for our house guests (grandpa and grandma and Care and Wes) prior to leaving for Vegas. Such a fun idea, courtesy of Jason...I love him!



Bellagio fountains after a long day at the Lake. The stickers on Navie's face are from our stop to In N Out. Apparently on your face is the only way to wear stickers in Navie's mind.

View of the Hoover Dam from the bridge. Takes your breath away, just a little.


One of my personal favorites!! I finally got to be in two places at once! I have pretty much wanted to do this since I saw the movie "A Walk to Remember." We all had a good time waving to each other from Arizona and Nevada but we were a little short on the dam jokes sadly.

And yes, the whole clan was sporting our Hawaii shirts from Care and Wes that day.

Fireworks, Sprinklers, and Popsicles, Oh My!

We went to see fireworks, right? I love fireworks. I noticed my camera has a fireworks setting, I thought sweet I can get some get pics to remember. Oh no, it took like 5 minutes for the picture to actually take so I got a lot of black sky shots with a dot of color here and there. This was the best firework shot.


Jason and I are just not photogenic people. So we just have to embrace what we capture, the good and the bad. This is waiting for Stadium of Fire fireworks.






Baby Ashley


I love Katelyn's face!


We were babysitting the cousins so we pulled out the sprinkler to make the most of our lawn investment.


They enjoyed drinking from it more than actually running through it.





Here's Navie laying out after washing the car.







What summer would be complete without a pink popsicle?

Ladybug Princess Dress

My first dress sewing project turned out about a million percent better than I thought. Unfortunately I cannot take all the credit for that. Luckily my mom came into town and fixed it up. I must say that I rather enjoyed sewing and I'm going to keep trying. This is Navie wearing her new sunglasses from Texas Roadhouse. We went on Monday night to celebrate Jason's hard work on the GRE.
Cutest pose ever. Grandpa was here and they tried to get her to do this pose but no good. I'm so happy she did it today.

Navie can't take a picture without a princess in hand.
