Mountain Adventure

A couple Saturdays ago, we went up into the mountains for a hot dog roast. Unfortunately, this particular area is an open range and the cows weren't very willing to share their spot with us. Ben shewed them away when we first arrived, but within minutes they came back. It was a fun little adventure nonetheless.

Crazy Daisies



We completely re-did this flower bed last year. As you can see, everything is THRIVING especially the daisies. They've tripled in size! It's a good thing they're my favorite.

Porter is making the cutest sounds these days. Here's a precious glimpse.

Together again!

On our way home from Utah, we stopped in West Jordan and visited an old friend of mine, Claire, and her sweet family. Here's Porter with Claire's daughter Elle. So cute!

Car Crazy

After a few hours in the car...

Random Pictures






At the Parade

We didn't have a very good view of the parade so again... Porter wasn't too interested. As you can see, he was asleep when we got there.
He still loves to bite his bottom lip. We hope it won't cause any permanent damage!

Hot Air Balloons






At 6:30 am on the 4th of July, we got to see the take off of these hot air balloons. It was so neat! Porter wasn't too interested because they were too far away. Grandpa tried to give him a closer look, but the loud, blowing fire scared him pretty good.

Bouncing with Grandpa

Porter and I got to spend a few days in Utah visiting lots of family. Look at Porter's cheeks in this picture! So big!

Baby Giggles

Sweet Smile



Swimming!



Last weekend we went to a little spot to play in the water. It took just a few minutes for Porter to get used to the cold water, but he loved it!
