Summer Fun

I know I am horrible at keeping this up to date. So when I finally think of doing it I have to include a lot of subject. So today I am encapsulating it in Summer Fun because that is what it what we are doing.

Several weeks ago Jason and I went on our first vacation without Korban. I can tell you it was hard not being under the same roof as him. But we had a blast. We went with our friend Nate and Roberta to Bear Lake. It was the perfect time. Officially the season wouldn't start until the next week (Memorial Day weekend) so we got to be there when it was beautiful and no one was around. Other than some car problems we had an excellent time. We woke up early and saw the sun rise. We ate good food and of course the famous raspberry shakes.


Inspired by Rachael, I took the opportunity to throw a themed baby shower for my friend Roberta. I had so much fun coming up with the idea. It was all about art. I painted abstract designs for the invites which said "Color Me Excited Roberta's Having a Baby!" I decorated with all my art supplies. The food was based on creating your own yummy masterpiece. So everything was separated and they used their "palates" (plates) to combine the ingredients. Everything was bright and colorful for the caribbean chicken salad and individual fruit pizzas. Then as the activity we painted onesies for Roberta's new little boy. It was so much fun. Thank you Rachael for inspiring us all to think outside the box when it comes to throwing parties.


And how can I forget about my little boy. Korban is also loving the summer. Although it has been raining we have been able to enjoy a lot of the sun and spend time with our friends.

Here Korban enjoys his first trampoline time. Eventually I just picked him up and he loved it!


I got to see my really good friend Kristen Starr. She and her daughter were up from Phoenix to spend time with family. I got to steal her away for a while and eat and play. Boy do I miss her! Here we are trying to feed Korban and Sasha at Bajios. We literally left the restaurant with the floors a mess. So embarrassing.


One really fun part of this summer is the amazing ability of Korban to grow teeth. For one month we were blessed with a new tooth cut every week. He is now up to 6. And we just got over his first ear infection. My poor little boy. At least most of the time he is happy.


We planted grass. Here is a pic of my little seedlings. This rain has made them much greener and fuller. We hope to have a full lawn by the end of the summer.


Not only did Korban get to jump on the tramp for the first time. He also got to go to the park and swing on big swing. As you can tell by his drooly smile, he enjoyed it.
