Crazy Busy!

I just realized that I really haven't blogged about our life since Mother's Day and I'm sorry about that. Having two little guys has really taken over my life and not a lot of things get done in a timely manner. Needless to say, some things get put on the back burner and blogging seems to be one of them.

Since we have been going back and forth between our home in Sandy - wait, let me rephrase that...our box of an apartment - and Helper, we have been on the road quite a bit. In between that, Jeff has been working a ton and I have started playing softball again after being on hiatus for two years due to being pregnant.

On top of all that, I have been able to take the boys to do a few things. I have also been able to catch up with some friends and even some of my cousins :D

Okay - now to get it out of the way. Since Mother's Day, I have been playing co-ed softball and our team won the League Championship :D We ended up taking second in the tournament. Basically when it comes down to the tournament championship we always seem to fold, which I don't know why.

Jeff and I celebrated our second year wedding anniversary on June 6 and we didn't do anything, but it was nice to know that I have found the love of my life. Colt has officially started crawling - which is making me go even faster then I already move and I was able to take the boys to the zoo for the first time. I ended up going with my cousins Ali and Shemri and we met up with a high school friend of mine and Ali's - Elizabeth and her son Connor. Cash loved Ali's boys and hugged them anytime they were near the stroller. I did learn that it's hard to have little guys at the zoo, but we managed just fine :D

Our house in Helper is great. We love going down there because we have so much room and the dogs and kids have a yard to play in. Jeff's Uncle Mike bought the boys a kiddy pool and we got it out this weekend since Jeff finally had a good block of time off. He has been working so much that the past six days have been a blessing and it was so much fun spending time together as a family. We tried to go camping, but everything back-fired on us and we ended up coming home. Everywhere we tried to go it cost to camp. Seriously!? Back in the day all we did was camp because we could just pack everything up and just go. Now it seems like you have to pay for everything. And really, who takes cash with them while they go camping? We basically drove around looking for a spot close to Electric Lake and Cleveland Lake and couldn't find anything that doesn't cost. We should have just gone with our original plan and head up Ferron, but we decided to try something different. Makes me wonder if you have to pay to go camp up Diamond Fork. I miss our old Gressmen Circle Camp and would love to take my boys there one day to show them where I spent a lot of time for either hunting or play.

Well, on top of all that, we are keepin' on keepin' on and moving along. I am looking forward to the end of July, when I get to go play in a softball tournament with my cousins and uncle. It should be a great time and I can't wait! I'm also starting up my women's league in Heber next week, so that should be exciting. It's been nice playing up there because I miss all my friends there and the boys get to hang out with their grandma and grandpa on those days I play.

Anyways, here are some pictures to show you what we have been up too. Hope everyone keeps smiling!
