Sarah came home from a Vegas with this outfit for Luke. She showed it to me and I had to laugh! I walked over to my suitcase and pulled out the exact same shirt (you can't see it but it has this cool guitar graphic) and jeans. Gotta love it! I love this shot of our boys because Luke looks like he is giving Max some man to man advice. The best was when Luke strummed his shirt and (pretending like he was playing the guitar on it) and then walked over and did the same thing to Max! Haha! Sarah told me that before we got there, Luke kept telling her that he was going to teach baby Max how to walk! Luke and Ashley are so big and so cute now! I can't believe how much they have changed.
Mmmmm. Sprinkles!
Britt loves 'em too! We had so much fun with Joe and Britt. It's hard to find friends like these! Dude. They had the wi. It is freakin fun.
Me and Rachelle. Delicious! We miss Kelly and Rachelle! Why must we be apart like this? WHY?!
Ivie is honestly the funniest little girl I have ever met. Danny and I decided she is the funniest and most entertaining out of all the grandkids. For one, she pulls the most hilarious faces. She will be telling you something dead serious and she will make a face that just makes you want to hit the floor and laugh until you can't breathe. Plus, she can't say her "R" sounds, which makes the things she says that much funnier. I told her we were going to pick some blackberries and she goes "Blackbewies?! Awe they weal?" I told her yea, a little confused. "Do they bite?!" I have no idea what she thought blackberries were. Maybe black bears? I don't know. I got a kick out of it though.
Saige
Saigey is almost two and came out of her shell a little bit this trip. She is a little quiet around me usually, but she talked about baby "Mac" this week a lot. She would go into Max's room, find his shoes and bring them to me and say "Mac!" Then she would try to put them on. Or, if Max started to cry in another room, she would come find me, wrinkle up her nose and say "Mac." with this very concerned expression. I think she will DEFINITELY pull faces like Ives. It's adorable.
All the kids- Max loves his big cousins and is so happy when they come to visit.
My mom and dad flew in to town Saturday night to take Jordan back to BYU and switch dorms for fall. My dad got to stay until Wednesday and my mom stayed until this morning! I love, love, love, my parents and I always have so much fun when they come to visit. Our big project this week was picking out a paint color for my living room and kitchen. Unfortunately, I am as indecisive as I am perfectionistic. Not a good combination. My wall looks like a patchwork quilt, but I think we finally got it figured out (after about 7 samples of paint). I was torn between Restoration hardware's silver sage and Benjamin Moore turquoise mist. So i took in my gallons to Ace hardware and had them dump it all in a five gallon bucket and mix it all together. 4:1 ratio. I'm pretty sure all parties involved were ready to kill me (Mom, Dad, Danny, Ace Hardware paint guy). My mom and I also went antiquing and found some great vintage linens and I found an AMAZING antique dresser (depression era) at a yard sale for $25 buckaroos! I am sooo psyched. It is so charmingly shabby chic and the perfect size for my formal living room and has the most gorgeous hardware and I just love it. And for so cheap! I live for good deals. My mom also helped us get a handle on our flower beds and organized my kitchen cabinets. She even did our laundry. Gawl. She is seriously the best! Max totally loves her too. She is my very best friend.
PEACH DAYS
Danny and I used to live in Brigham City and we loooove peach days. This year we just had to go and take Max, and of course Nana, and Darren and Hadley! We also met up with the lovely Lindsey, on of my best pals since we were 11! She's the best. We spent 90% of the evening stuffing our faces with peach related dishes, which honestly is what the whole thing is all about in my book. Hadley won this little stuffed dog in the balloon dart game and she was so in love with it.
