Weekends go too fast!

Well, it was LOTOJA weekend again. I decided this year I didn't want to go, didn't want to be a support person, and didn't even want to watch. I must be a bad wife or something but driving all the way over there with all the kids and no help just wasn't sounding appealing. We'll go again next year but this year the kids and I enjoyed a quiet weekend at home. (PLUS, we were JUST in Jackson Hole 2 weekends ago!)

Nate took 2nd place in the team relay. They only lost by 40 seconds BUT they beat the previous record by 8 minutes. Pretty impressive! Nate's dad completed the entire 207 miles in 11 hours. SO amazing! His best time yet!
The boys and I cleaned the house, ran errands, and watched movies. Actually, I rented the first season of Downton Abbey and watched all 7 hours. LOVED IT! Now I need to get my hands on the second season.

The kids and I also had a fun outdoor smore fire night. We sang lots of cheesy camp songs too. I love that they were SO into it. They are never allowed to grow up.


Parker was a good helper while Dad was out of town.I just love how Anna looks like a baby doll every time Parker picks her up. It's the cutest.
 I've had multiple people tell me lately that I look exactly like Anna. Hmmmm, I'm not 100% convinced.

 And Oh, how we love when Daddy gets home. He has the magic touch for getting his girl to fall right to sleep.


It's been a great weekend.....except for a few moments while holding the baby in the foyer at church. She let out a HUGE fart. I kept holding with her and playing with her then I looked down and saw I had poop.....ALL OVER my WHITE skirt, and shirt. It was all over her NEW outfit too so HOME we went for a complete change of clothes. Gotta love it. Oh, and one more thing. I've been released from BOTH Activity Days AND the piano playing calling (YES! HOORAY! YIPPEE!) 5 year old primary class, here I come! ☺

So glad you are watching Downton Abbey. Robby and I loved it and it just got better every episode. I am sad the next season doesn't come out until January!!
