Summer Rain



I love me some rain in the summertime! And I now my kids beg for the rain so we can go out and dance in it!

I am here. Really.

I have been trying for two days to upload photos to better express our recent doings, but blogger won't let it happen...so you, (my faithful readers), are stuck with my random thoughts. In list form of course:

  • In case you have been trying to get a hold of me, my phone is off right now. It sucks not having a phone!
  • I am excited for my Scrapaganza this week!
  • I need to print pictures for it however...
  • I feel like I am drowning in Laundry, housework and little things I have to get done and I will never catch up.
  • Which is why I like to leave the house as often as possible and take the kids to the pool.
  • Our trip to Flaming Gorge with my family was a success! The best part was of course, the day I spent on the river.
  • Muzzy LOVES the lake! He is a great water dog.
  • Celebrating the Fourth on the 3rd, 4th, and 5th wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. It was kind of fun extending the Holiday. (only in utah county right?!)
  • My Fridge is broken right now. We are living out of coolers. Got Ice?
  • I don't want Daxon to start school next month.
  • He still needs 6 vaccinations, and I am sad for him to go through that.
  • I think I picked a great book for bookclub this month!
  • I haven't returned to Zumba yet, but I keep thinking about it.

Desert Dwellers

I finallly had a great trip to St. George (mostly surrounding areas of St. George)! I love the Desert and my soul is happy to return to fabulous, reliable, HEAT!
It was just me and the kids on this trip. On Thursday we had a quick swim in St. George with my Bro and his girls who were in town, then that evening we visited my Pop and Debra in Virgin. I have no photos of the evening as Debra was the photographer for the night!

Friday we drove to Overton, NV to my Aunt's house to celebrate High School Graduation with my cousin Kallie! It was a full day, including lots of family, food, swimming, sun, and an almost-speeding-ticket from Officer Johnson (who let me off with a warning because he knows Kallie! Whew!)

Most of the Lawhon cousins together in Overton!



After leaving fairly early from Overton to get our 2 hour drive started, (we were headed back to Teed's house in Sprindgale) we got stopped on the freeway due to a terrible accident. both sides of the freeway were stopped and we were the lucky ones to have been stopped for only just over an hour! This is my sister and I having a very nice truck driver take our photo hanging off his trailer! Its not often one gets to play in the freeway! *We finally got home at 2:00 am*


Saturday was spent at Quail Lake. My cousin Mason found us a great swimming hole and shaded beach.

Me and my kids enjoying the fabulous mix of Sun and Water!


Sunday my siblings, my mom, and the kids took a hot trip into Zion National Park (yeah for free National Park Day!) Daxon, Zayla, Shaylynn and McKynley were happy to be together again!


Zayla, Daxon and Shay playing around after we got done eating. It was so hot that we then had to go find a river and cool off.

It was a fun trip with each day thoroughly exhausting my kids! What more could one want?!

Our Recent Doings...

Someone mentioned to me that I was really slacking on my blogging efforts (thanks Mandra!)...I am sorry! Much has been happening, so here a few shots of whats been going on!








Daxon is in TBall! Its one of the most entertaining things ever!



Zayla playing with her baby and a hole in a box...(I just threw this in here cuz she is so cute!) We are also prepping for potty-training!


I just got back from my annual "Girls Weekend" This year we were abducted by Aliens!


Daxon just graduated from Pre School!


And the best news of all: I now have a kitchen sink and countertops! The remodel is coming back to where things are livable again! I will get photos posted as soon as I clean it up a bit! Ha!
Love to all!

IS THIS EVER GOING TO END?

On May 10th it will have been a month of living with a torn apart kitchen.

I still don't have counters or a sink...

But the Tile is beautiful.
The walls are mostly done with the new color of paint....
The stairs are carpet-free and the woodwork that Blue is doing on them will be fabulous (but currently there are no steps...)

Clearly, the project has spread from just the Kitchen floors to the kitchen cabinets, the Front Room, stairs down to the living room, the stair banisters, and the back part of the living room...

I have not enough energy to get my camera and hook it up and wait for a photo of the chaos to upload. So, you'll just have to be patient...as will I.

We Were Held in the Hands of the Lord Today.


In a fit of rage, Daxon fell from his bedroom window into the bushes below today.


His bedroom is on the second floor.


He is covered in scrapes and cuts, very shaken, but otherwise okay.


I am okay too...
I am so thankful for daily blessings. It could have been so much worse!
Moral of the story: Lock your kids up tight and never let them out of your sight!
