Soccer & Guns... who am I?

Yes, sometimes I do boy things for my husband.... Jordan's taking 15 credits this summer and has been swamped with homework & classes, so anytime I can convince him to step away from the textbooks we do it. It doesn't happen very often, but usually when it involves boy things and our good friends Casey & Nick he's up to it.
They call me Annie... Annie Oakley (I seriously am an amazing shot)
Casey is also a better shot than her husband :)
We also went to our first Real Soccer game recently. Ole, Ole, Ole!!

Summer Is Splendid

I love Summer. Here's a few things we've been up to the past few weeks.

THE GIANT SLIP-N-SLIDE
Our neighbor has this giant tarp that we occasionally set up on the hill by our house, we hook up the hoses, drench ourselves in dish soap, and slide down the hill. It's so fun.


Me and Jordan have been playing on a softball team this Summer. I'ts been so fun. Of course he wouldn't pose for a picture, but these are two of my apparently very SHORT friends I play with, and who I actually went to Hygiene school with. (Am I really a giant?!) We're playing in the tournament right now, so maybe I can snag a picture of him later on.
We're obsessed with 5Ks I think. Here we are at the Layton 4th of July Fun Run. I look like I should've taken 1st place. I think I took 400th. But Jordan took 401st place so it's all good.
I finally got my sisters and Mom to check out the "Wood Connection" store that I'm obsessed with. We did these cute crafts together.
I got advanced screening tickets to see Eclipse from my work. I was so happy because I got FIVE tickets so all FIVE of us sisters could go together. It was so fun. The Twilight movies are so much better when the husbands stay home :)

We've also celebrated about a GAZILLION BIRTHDAYS in the past few weeks, and eaten enough cake and Ice cream to last us until next year.
Happy Birthday to... Camille, Alyssa, Jordan, Brooklynn, Mom, Megan, Julianne, Paige, and Ashlie!!!!!
We also went out to breakfast, went swimming, had BBQs, Fireworks, and played a ton with our cute nieces and nephews while Julianne and Paul were here. Summer has been great.

We're Nerds, But It's Okay

If at first you don't succeed... try, try again.

You all saw my crafting failure with the arm band a few weeks ago. So I've decided to take a break from the sewing machine, and stick with something that turns out halfway decent. Here are a few of my most recent crafts.

I did the watermelon one with my mom and sisters. We had such a fun time doing it together, I love coming from a family of all girls!! (Now if only my house were a little bigger. I'm running out of room under my bed to store my decorations. Some people look into to buying a house cause they need more room for babies, I need the room for my decorations. hehe)
