CAMP OUT

So it has been a long time since I have posted on my blog. Summer has been crazy busy. I have been meaning to post these pictures for a long time and just haven't gotten around to it.

Ever 3rd on July (Haley's birthday) we have a big family sleepover in my parent's backyard. Haley thinks that it is all for her b-day...so we will just keep it that way.
We have a BBQ, play games, watch a movie outside on the big screen, and do a ton a fireworks. In the morning we have a big breakfast.

First Time....

So now that Haley is 3 years old, she had her first Dental vistit. She did soooo good! Before we got to my office she told me she wanted me to clean her teeth but that she didn't want me to wear a mask or gloves. (In the past she has been scared of the mask and gloves.) Anyway, I decided that I wanted to be the "Mom" that day not the "Dental Hygienist." So I made my good friend from work K.D. clean her teeth.
Here is Haley with her cool sunglasses, watching "Dora The Explorer", about to get her teeth cleaned. She didn't even mind the mask and gloves!
Getting her teeth "tickled" by K.D.
No Cavities!!! This is us in front of the fish tank, which she loves, out in the reception area!
After getting her teeth cleaned, I decided to give her her first Haircut. I didn't cut much off, just enough to even it out. She had been begging me to get a haircut so I went down to my Mom and Dads house and My mom helped me cut it. It looks good but the curls are slowly going away...it's pretty sad, that is why it has taken me 3 years to do this. But, it had to happen some day right!?

Happy Birthday Haley!!

I can't get over that my little girl is now three years old. It is crazy fast time goes. These last three years have been such a joy having her in our family.
So we thought it would be fun to go to Chuck E. Cheese. Haley had a great time. Most of the Salmons met us there for lunch.

I think the adults had just about as much fun as Haley!

Here is Haley super excited to blow out her candles while we are singing Happy Birthday.
The only part she eats on her cake....which I am sure you can tell, is the frosting!! She loves frosting!
Here are some of the things she got. One gift she was really excited to get was her tea set. Later that day we had a tea party and she kept saying to me, "Mom...THIS IS THE BEST BIRTHDAY EVER!!! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!"
Here are pictures of Haley with her grandparents.
Happy Birthday Haley! We love you!!

4th of July Festivities

A few days before the 4th we went to the GALA, which is part of the Fredom Festival, at BYU. Here is a picture of me with my hot date!! :) It was a fun evening. We had a nice dinner followed by a wonderful patriotic program.

Lots going on...

Jason's brother Dallin came home from his mission in May!!! Haley calls him "D-bone."
This cute little girl of ours had her "golden birthday." She turned 3 on July 3rd. I will blog more about this fun day later.
Ryan and Jessica had their baby the end of June. Haley is excited to finally have a cousin on the Salmon side. She loves baby Madeline!!! She can't get enough of her. She keeps telling me she need so go see baby Maddi so she can do her hair.
