Lauren Graduates High School

I can't believe that Lauren graduated from High School.  It feels to me that she should be a little girl still! She has grown up to be such a beautiful girl.  She is a good girl who has made awesome decisions and I just am so proud of her!

Graduation was kinda long and Stella did so good!

Chapman and Lauren

Love you little Sis!!

Memorial Day Weekend and Potty Training

Memiorial Day weekend was an eventful one.

We started potty training with Drake. He wanted to do it and told us he didn't want to wear diapers anymore be ausd diapers are for babies! He did really well and only had a few accidents!  I think because he was day for it he did a great job and it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be!

Drake painted this picture and then asked why the car on,y had one tire and why the dog only had one eye?  I had to explain what a profile was and now he understands.  Smart little stink!

We went tot he work with friends from our ward. 

We discovered that Stella LOVES mushrooms!! 

We went to church on Sunday and then drove over to Brigham for a BBQ at my Grandma's house with some of my Dad's side of the family.

Drake found a little water stream and he loved it!!

I love this cute boy of mine!

On Memorial Day we went with the Taylor's, Browning"s, James and Lexi, Lauren and Boston to the Brigham City pool.  It was so much fun!!

Stella also loves watermelon.

Hunter and Drake are the best of friends!

Monday night we went to my grandpa and grandma's house for dinner and just to hang out with family.  Stella got some new Pj's and I am in love with them!

It Is Park Season

We are so happy that spring and summer are here!  We have had some really fun days at the park with friends! Drake loves playing on the playground and I love hanging out and chatting with my friends!

Bear Lake Classic 2013

The Bear Lake Classic bike race was very cold and rainy this year!  It was still fun to go up and stay in Bear Lake and work at the race but it was very cold.

The kids stayed at my mom's house and then they came up to Bear Lake later that day and hung out. On Saturday night we went to the Taylor's cabin and had Dutch oven dinner and hung out with them!!

We saw a Moose on the way home.  It was really cool!

Mother's Day, Birthday And The New Condo

This year my birthday and Mother's Day fell on the same day.  It was a really good day though!  I woke up to some really fun presents. We also left and drove to St. George where we spent a few days and Josh worked.  My mom came with us because they just bought a new condo and we got it all set up, decorated and cleaned.  

Could it get any cooler?? The Harry Potter movies on Blue Ray and a ring from Tiffany's!!

I love this ring!! It is so simple but so pretty!  It has the Tiffany blue color in it and I just love it!!

We got to St. George and spent time at the pool! It was very hot while we were down there so we couldn't do much else outside besides being next to the pool where we could cool off. Drake liked pretending that I was a dog and he was my owner!

This kid has an awesome life!!

We made the usual stop at the Swig at least two times a day for a Dirty Diet Coke and a Sugar Cookie!!

My mom and I shopped a lot and got a lot of cute stuff with out spending too much!! 

Despite the above picture of Stella, the kids loved hanging out at the new condo and thought it was pretty cool that they can go to two different condos in St. George!

A tour of the new condo.

It is a really cute place and feels so cozy!

On our way home we stopped at th Chevron in Beaver.  They have awesome service there and Drake loves the big rocking chair.

Both of my kids have a picture like this!! Stella had a blowout on the way home and had to have a bath in the sink!

We saw a really pretty double rainbow on the way home one Salt Lake.

 When I got home I saw that Brad had installed my new faucet that I got for my birthday!! He is so thoughtful and I appreciated so much tht he surprised me with this!
