4th of july

We had a fun filled weekend and I am so retarded I didn't take any pictures.  On the fourth Jared woke up at 5:30 am (I know what you are thinking but it is true he really did) He took Brady and Ashton to see the hot air balloons take off.  They LOVED it.  We had our traditional big 4th breakfast and then unfortunately Jared had to work at our store.  We just played around here for the day and then we had a BBQ with the family.  We usually go to fox field to watch the fireworks but with my dad not feeling so well we decided to do something different.  we walk to the field right by our house and watched the fireworks.  It was AWESOME.  I think we are going to try and do that every year.  The fireworks felt like they were coming right to us.  My dad was not able to stay he still is very tired so mom and him went home about 7:30.  Which makes me sad because watching the fireworks is one of his favorite things.  On sat. we went to mom and dad house and did fireworks in front of there house and there neighbor Lannie had some "good" fireworks.  To finish off our weekend we went to the canyon for dinner last night.  It was so good to get away for the hot busy city and relax in the mountains for a few hours.  Overall I think we could call our weekend a success.  Sorry I have no pictures to show for it I will do better next time.

potty



Yesterday Lilly grabbed my hand and said potty.  We went into the bathroom and she was pulling at her diaper.  So I proceeded to put her on the toilet.  She thought she was so big.  We sat there for about 5 min and then she farted.  She got the biggest grin and then wanted to wipe.   This is such a new experience for me when I was potty training Brady he thought the toilet was going to attack him if he sat down on it.  Ashton already was potty trained when she came to live with me so this is kind of a new experience for me.  I think Lilly is pretty young but I will certainly be encouraging her to go to the bathroom.   

Lilly and her crazy hair




Lilly hair the greatest hair that you can make it go crazy (as the kids say)  Her hair is so fine that when you wash it you make make it stand straight up or have the "messy" look.  She thinks shes pretty funny when she gets out of the bath.

Zoo




About a month ago Jill and I went to the zoo.  I just downloaded the pictures so I thought I would post them so you could see how much fun it was.  We went on a day that was a little cool it was great!!!
