Chocolate frosting???

My little baby turns 1 in a few weeks so I had my sister in law take some cute pictures of him so we could get an invitation made for his party! I don't think that we will have to worry about him not liking his cake! I just love this kid! If you are intrested in getting your pictures taken for anything check out her blog, she does an amazing job - http://heidis-photography.blogspot.com/

Mommy wow.....

Mommy wow.... I'm a big kid now!!! Ezra got too big for his carseat oh about 2 months ago and we still hadn't gotten around to getting him a new one. Grandma Lepak saw how small it was for him the other day and went out and bought him a new one! Thanks mom! I was just being lazy and didnt want to switch him to a new one because that meant that my little guy was growing up :( He was so stinking happy and loved it the second we put him in it! So with 2 big carseats in the back I think that our next purchase should be an SUV! :)

My sweet Ezra

Ezra just turned 9 months and we had his dr appointment today! He is growing like a weed! He now weighs 22.5 pds (which I think they weighed him wrong because he feels A LOT heavier than that! ) I just can't believe that it is time to change him now to a big kid car seat! Where has the time gone? Ezra is so much fun to have around! He is so chilled and has the biggest sweetest smile & he just makes you happy! I freaking love this kid!

Just a few more...

Just a few more pictures from Bryce Canyon that our friend Kristy sent us- thanks Kristy!

Here we are @ the finish line. It is kind of random because they bus you up the canyon and you have this beautiful run & than you round the corner towards the finish and you are in a neighborhood. Oh well still good times!

Ammon sprinting towards the end!

Bryce Canyon

Last weekend we went to Bryce Canyon. We were there to run in the half marathon & hang out with some fun friends. I ran it in 1hr and 39 minutes(personal best) and Ammon ran it in 1hr and 45 minutes (he has now run only 2 races, a full marathon and now a half- pretty amazing). It was a beautiful run and the only run in the United States that runs through a National Park, pretty cool huh? I didn't get any pictures from the run, we had to wake up at 3:30am to get there on time so I wasn't really thinking about anything at that time :)
Jason, Josh, Rick, Laura & Jim all ran in the half with us and Kristy ran a 5k and she took 2nd. Go Kristy!
After our race we came home and made a yummy brunch and took showers and naps. After that we were waiting for it to cool down outside so we could go hiking so we played poker and a few other games. We than hiked 3 miles in to this beautiful water fall! It was such an amazing hike and so pretty!

This is "Tots" - so stinking cute!

Playing games

The song poker face was going through my head the whole time! :)

Great weekend with lots of fun, games, and laughter! It was the first time I had been away from my kids but they had tons of fun @ Grandma & Grandpa Lepak's house, infact Izabella keeps asking when she gets to go back! It's true they spoil kids much more than mommy and daddy! Thanks mom and dad for watching them!

We had so much fun that we decided to make it a yearly event and I can't wait until next time!

Smores Galore

Tuesday night we went up to Mill Creek Canyon for dinner and some yummy smores! We had a great time and the scenery was absolutely breath taking! I had gotten pretty sick of all the rain we were getting but I am so thankful for it because everything is just so green and beautiful!

Mommy and Ezra waiting for our smores! :)Grandma and Grandpa Lepak handing out the chocolate.

Izzy and Ammon making smores!

Izzy was fascinated with the fire and loved roasting the marshmallows.

The final product was a success and sooo yummy!

Fun in the Sun!

The 4th of July was filled with lots of fireworks, swimming and yummy BBQ ribs! We started off the day bright and early with me running in the Freedom Festival 10K, than afterwards going to the parade. Grandma & Grandpa Lepak had a surprise waiting back home for the kids! A Tinkerbell jump house! Talk about entertainment for HOURS on end! The kids LOVED it! They would jump in the swimming pool and than run into the jump house and jump. It was soaking wet in there and ended up being a huge slip in slide. Great times!

Izabella is really funny about loud noises, she covered her ears the whole time during the fireworks. A few weekends ago we went 4wheeling in the morning and in the afternoon we went to the Oquirrh Mt. Temple open house. Izzy took this picture on the way up to the temple, (pretty good I might add). Of course after that I left my camera in the car & this was the only picture I got at the temple.

Getting ready for a ride with mommy.
