Sydney's Birthday

We had a lot of fun celebrating Sydney's birthday, we went to IHOP (her choice) and then went out for a cupcake at a cute little Bakery. 

About a week later all my family came over to celebrate it again.

She was in Heaven!

Fruits of my labor

For 3 weeks this summer I was in the kitchen from sunrise to well after sunset canning, an prepping for the next few months. Starting my Etsy shop has proven to be very time consuming and I wanted to make sure my family is taken care of so. I bottled about 45 jars of green beans, 35 jars of pairs, 25 jars of salsa, 7 jars of tomatoes, and 60 jars of of peaches. I froze about 100 bean burritos, 60 breakfast burritos, 30 waffles, 100 cookies, and 60 freezer meals. It was a lot of hard work but it has already been paying off. Its so good to know that I don't have to stop and spend an hour or so fixing a healthy meal for my family because its already done I just need to warm it up.

Boulder Cave

Its always a fun time when the Sevens clan gets together, and this is one of our favorite places to go. BOULDER CAVE. The kids loved the short hike in and through the cave. Especially when they get to hike with Grandma and all their cousins.

Sleepy Greyson...

My little Pete's Dragon

Glad we went as always

County Fair

Summer is never really complete without a trip to the county fair. It is one of our favorite things to do.

Kloee loved the bunnies

and they both liked the pigs....as long as they were at a distance.

The biggest hit was the face painting.

So cool

My little sister Erikka came a long as well and talked me into going on The Ring of Fire (she barely made the height requirment. :)

It was a lot of fun to spent the time as a family, walking around looking at everything and eating all the yummy food.

Ode to my children

These three kids are my world, I love them and they spoil me like crazy. The three of them play so well together I am able to get an amazing amount of things done each day. I could ask for better kids. I love that they love each other.

My Birthday

I was spoiled this year for my birthday, Darren and the girls made me my FAVORITE strawberry cake for my birthday and Darren took me to see Legally Blonde-The musical. I could not have asked for a better day. I just love these kiddos....they love to help in the kitchen

and hold up their fingers of how old they are.......

SO YUMMY!
