June 2010

Some things we were able to do in June are:





Send Ben Off -  My brother Ben is officially a missionary in the Seattle, Washington Mission.  We're proud of his decision to serve the Lord.


Go to the Zoo -  Thanks Thierry for inviting us to the zoo. It was fun to do something different!


Buy a New Dishwasher - Our old dishwasher was on the fritz and decided to leak water and bubbles all over the kitchen floor. This is on top of refusing to drain at all. What a mess!





Celebrate Sterling's Birthday - Our baby is now 1 years old. We celebrated by taking him to Chuck E. Cheese and let him go on some rides after eating some pizza. He enjoyed it thoroughly. He is such a great kid and super smiley to be around. (That is, unless he has had shots recently. Holy cow, his 4 shots have affected him for a week.) Sterling can successfully walk around and knows how to scream to let us know Makayla is teasing him again.



Go to Lagoon - We took Makayla to Lagoon with some Paxton cousins. She was super excited the whole day. As soon as we got off a ride she would ask, "What's next?" "Where do we go now?" Even though we hung out in kiddie land most of the day, it was enjoyable to see how happy Makayla was.


Get World's Best Deal - I found a bike for Makayla at a yard sale for One Dollar! Although the training wheels were an extra Ten Bucks, that is a steal of a deal and I know it was a big blessing to find it.



Our Anniversary - Yesterday (the 29th) was our 8 year mark of marriage. Really, it's already been that long? So we celebrated by bouncing back to Lagoon, this time kidless. It was really awesome to go on the rollercoasters and thrill rides that we couldn't go on last week. We're also getting a babysitter this weekend to go on another real date :)


Grow Some Grass - Although you can't mow it or really walk on it, it's there, grass!!! So we've been watering like crazy to get it to grow.

See you next month :)
