I looked out the window...

...and what did I see.




We are so blessed to be able to live in this beautiful home in such a great location. I absolutely love going outside and enjoying the peace and quiet. Abi and I go out everyday and just walk around the yard. I am so thankful to be able to live in this home between homes.

Pit babe

There's a pit babe....
(seriously high heels at the track?!)
...and there's a Pit babe!
This weekend we went out to Miller Motor Sports Park again. It never get's old. Jeremy came out on Saturday. We had fun timing Matt and his brother. We will have to get him out there sometime soon.
I think Matt has been watching too many Moto GP races. He had a head to head with the red bike. He tried and tried to pass him and finally did but braked to late going into the turn and almost lost it. He then decided to tone it down. Crazy kid!
There were a lot of crashes. My heart get's racing when I see the truck turn on it's lights and race out to the crash. This time they picked up two riders.

It really is pretty safe though. Most of the time the rider will crash and get right back up. In fact one time a rider crashed, jumped right back up and went out the next session. The guys really have a lot of fun there. I love it when they come back and pull off their helmets and get all excited about something that happened or how well they did. I think it's cute. Um... I mean cool. :)

Things are looking "UP"

Matt told me about the "UP" house a while ago. Well, they finally finished it! So Matt's mom and I took Abi and my Niece's to take some pictures. If you get a chance go take a look. It's in the Herriman Town Centre . It's an exact replica of the movie except they made it livable with a garage and the rest of the house you don't see on the movie. They even hand cut each shingle. Look how cute this house is
Matt and I went inside the night before. They custom made the big chair he sits in, and they had retro looking appliances. Now you have to buy parade of home tickets to get in. :(






It was a lot of fun. They were going to do the balloons but found that the static electricity popped the balloons. We'll see. Go take a look.

Happy Un-Birthday Cambria!

On Sunday we went to Debbie's and had a Un-Birthday party for Cambria. The theme was Alice In Wonderland. We had a tea party. They had all sorts of fun things to eat. It was pretty funny to see the guys drinking out of the small tea cups. :)
Abi and Cambria joined in. I will have to get the pics of Cambria from Natalie. They also had fun playing together. At least I think so. They kind of just stared at each other.
After the tea party we played crochet. It was actually a lot more fun than these pictures show.

Abi was all bundled up. She looks a lot more happy that she was.
Afterward we watched home videos from when my family visited Vegas when we were younger. It was sooo funny. It was so much fun.

Trying New Things

I never thought I would or could be a little crafty but here I am making weekly menu boards. I didn't make this one I just don't have a picture of mine.
and making tutus and fabric flowers.
I watched an episode of Master Chef and got on a little cooking kick. I was actually avoiding those shows with Chef Ramsey but Master Chef isn't as bad as Hell's Kitchen. He doesn't throw tantrums and swear on that one. At least not that I have seen. So here are some things that I have tried. I got the recipes from www.pillsbury.com.
I'm trying this one on Saturday.
I also started a garden. Not all of the plants survived but hey it's my first try. And of corse being a mom. I'm always trying new things with Abi. It's fun to see her reactions to new things.

What we did for the fourth

We couldn't miss Emma's (my niece's) first play, The wizard of Oz. It was an outdoor play and Abi did really well. She's the taller one in the pink ballerina costume.
She's really outgoing and not shy at all.
It was her final night so we got her some flowers. We were so proud!!!
What better way to spend the 4th than in the mountains.

Emma and Abi.
Me and Abi.
Mike and Stacey.
Tom and Carolyn.
Matt and Abi. Abi was mesmerized by the fire.

All of us surrounding the fire.


Dillon and Abi.
How beautiful is that? I love the mountains!

No fireworks this year. :(
