St. Gerorge

Last week we went to St. George with my family. We had a great time. We went to Bryce Canyon to hike, went swimming a lot, rode our bikes, shopped, golfed, and went to see Aladdin at Tuacahn. We were expecting the weather to be super HOT, but it rained most of the time we were down there. There were even some floods in part of St. George (pretty crazy). I think the hottest it was maybe 103 when we arrived there and when we were leaving. Over all, we had a great vacation with the family. I cant believe summer is almost over, it has gone by so quick.

Yellowstone

Last week, we went to Yellowstone with Case's side of the family. We had a BLAST! We camped in tents at of his great uncle's cabin. (The cabin was nice to have, it only had a bathroom, and a kithen. Enough to make food, and wash your face and hands in the morning) Anyways,One the first day, we explored the town by driving a big loop to see some animals, waterfalls, and some gysers. Second day, we went down the river on canoes, and relaxed. Later that night we went swimmming at a country club house. It was nice to get in a hot tub, and relax. Our last day there, the men went golfing at the country club for Father's day, while the women chit chatted and cleaned up a little. This father's day, I deceided I was going to suprise Case with something he has been wanting for awhile now, which was an IPAD. He had no idea, I would actually get it for him. But, I did, and he loves it. (I think we all like playing with it) All in all we have had a FUN Vacation! Cant wait for our next one!

Update

-Potty Training- Well, about a month ago, Riley came to me and said, "Potty" So, I took him to his little potty chair, and he went. I was suprised he, actually, knew when he had to go to the bathroom. He is doing pretty good. When he has to go, he will let you know. It is a little hard, when we are not home, or somewhere he doesnt know. So, I guess this is the start of potty training. The other night, before bed, he had to go potty, so we went in there, and he said, "Book". He went to get a book, and then he was ready to go potty after he had his book in his hand. Funny, little boy..

-House- We have been in our house for a YEAR! We celebrated by putting a sprinkler system, and sod in the front yard. When we first moved in there was no grass, just weeds, there was a fence around the whole yard, and two trees in the front yard. With a lot of help from our friends and family we have a BEAUTIFUL yard now! We are so excited about it too. Next, year we will work on the back yard. One step at a time.

BABY

The other day, Riley and I were watching Toy Story, and he came up to me saying, "Mommy, Baby" I asked him if he wanted me to hold him like a baby? He said, "No" I asked if he wanted to go to the babysitter's? Again, he said, "No" Finally, I asked him, "Do you want a baby brother?" He said, "YES!" I was a little shocked. Who did he learn this from? He is a smart little boy! Also, today he was helping me clean downstairs, and I left for 2 seconds and I found him like this..

Camp Out

About a week ago, Case got our little tent out, just to play in with Riley. Now, he wont let us take it down. He thinks its his new bed. He has pretty much slept in it all week. I think he is going to be like his dad.. Loving to camp and going 4 wheeling.

CABIN

Case's family has been building his mom a cabin for the past couple years. This past weekend they out a wrap-around porch on in 3 days.

This last picture is how the Rasmussen brothers act when they are together. Pretty funny!
