July/August...coming and goings...


Seriously, I have so much catching up to do...so let's get started. Back in JULY... Jared and I have had tickets to see Wicked for about a year now. We've been looking forward to going and seeing this great play for a year now, and to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Well, with girls camp over and finished I was finally ready to enjoy this super FUN date! We had a baby sitter all lined up and everything. We planned dinner, dessert and then the show...Oh, so excited!

This is my heavenly favorite dessert. Once I shared it with a friend and now I haven't been able to not be down town salt lake and not get it! Yum. It's from the Thaifoon restaurant in Gateway, their chocolate lava cake. YUM.

Do you see the anticipation...Yeah, I'm bursting!

Ok. So the funny part is coming...yeah, we were ONE DAY EARLY! Yeah, so we pretty much lucked out and got two dates. It wasn't for thursday our tickets were for friday. Ha, we were laughing. The other FUNNY part to this Wicked story is that I had purchased the cd from amazon and apparently I had uploaded all the GERMAN Wicked songs. So for weeks I've been totally confused by all the "witch" language. It wasn't until we were at dinner the (wrong) Wicked night, and I was on the phone with my sister saying, "Are you sure I'm going to understand all the witch language? I mean is this even in English?" Yeah, she busted up laughing! So THANKFULLY I had one more day to select the English songs and listen to them...Yeah, I pretty much LOVED them the moment I heard them all in English! I'm totally in love now.

Silly baby, loving his new carseat box.

A little girl friend time. Alayna is totally spoiled when it comes to friends. We live in a neighborhood where there are 9 girls in the 2nd grade. Seriously, she is so lucky. They ALL love being girls and being together!

Yeah, so here we are on night TWO! I finally LOVED it!!! LOVED IT even in English!!!
 

These are the two cute kids that come home from school everyday together! Seriously, so cute. 

Alayna said to me the other day..."Mom, did you know I walk by Jake's class two times a day? And did you know he's always there where he's supposed to be!" I even over heard her telling Jake, "Do you need me to say hi to you each time I walk past your class? Jake said, "No." Then Alayna said with all the drama possible.."Mom, Jake doesn't need me to say hi to him, that really makes me sad!!"  Then a few seconds later Jake said..."Alayna, you can if YOU want too." Oh, she's very protective and LOVES being the older sister looking out for him.

I love seeing them be such good friends together. 

A little mini-family reunion with the Barainca cousins.

Jared's two grandmothers. Lavon (Randy - Jared's Dad's mother) and Denice (Jacqui - Jared's Mothers mother)

Some girl cousins.

Yes, Ben getting into all the plants...AHHHHHH I have a baby who moves, crawls, stands, etc. 

My newest project...updating and cleaning and painting my laundry room! Yeah, baby!!!

Our weekly entertainment it seems like...yet again another FIRE.

The kids love it.
