keeping active

This is what we did July 24th. 

Since there was no sign of a baby coming we decided to make the best of Pioneer Day.

We went up Provo Canyon and played all afternoon at Bridal Veil falls.

We brought Sage's long board, Chamberlains Scooter and a camera to keep us busy.

The water was nice and freezing perfect for myself.

Then once we were too hot we headed back to the valley to Summer Sno and of course I got Bahama Mama as well as Sage, Josh is still a Silver Fox and Chamberlain went with Blue Hawaiian which he loved. 

We ended the day with a lovely BBQ at the Chamberlains and played and played and played with the cousins.

Such and active weekend and still no baby.

Hopefully soon!

We have also had a sweet treat for the week, 

Auntie Sage has been staying with us the entire week and since its 2 days after the due date who knows how long she will be with us.  However, we will keep her as long as possible, we are having too much fun with her here.

Pioneer Day (aka) due date

I think it is safe to say that todays chance of having this baby has come and gone. 

I am due today and so far no sign or even a hint of a baby coming.

I thought for sure that she would be here by now. 

What was I thinking, girls take their time and run on their own schedule.

I should know better I am a girl and I run on my time.

This girl is going to come when SHE is ready!

Lets hope that we can remember that when she is older.

However, we still had a fun filled day.

We took a long walk/scooter/long board up Provo Canyon to the falls, ate Summer Sno, and had a family BBQ.

Which I will post pictures of and write about when I'm not so tired.

Happy Pioneer Day.

i hope this works

This is what I did today.

Im ready for this girl to come.

Lucky for me I know people with a tramp.

It was a fun and VERY HOT way to spend 2 hours in the afternoon.

Chamberlain loved it. 

we passed a waterfall . . . check

 We finally made it to Pines Ranch, in which we passed a waterfall.

The Clayton family cabin.

Josh has so many memories from his youth here,

it was neat to see where he spent his summers, and take Chamberlain to experience the same thing.

I'm so glad we finally got to go we have been wanting to go since we got married.

We only went for the day, last Saturday. 

If I wasn't due in on the following Saturday we would have spent the week, I believe,

and let the cousins just play, play, play.

Such a beautiful place.

I think that Grandma Burgess enjoyed it most

having all but 5 of the grand-kids in one place.
Having enough space that they could be crazy, crazy, crazy.

This was the first time 4 out of the 5 siblings have been together since our wedding 5 years ago.
So we have many more kids and lots of time to talk about weather.

What a great day.

I cant wait for next summer we are totally staying longer.

real men

change their own scooter oil.

I'm so proud of you honey.

friday nights

Friday nights are usually date nights for Josh and I.

However, all of our "Chamberlain watchers" moved away for the summer.

We have had to be creative and since Josh usually works till 8 on Friday nights 

there is not much we can do.

We noticed a spot in our yard where the grass weeds don't grown.

It was practically screaming for us to turn it into a small fire pit.

So we did.

(hope the landlord doesn't mind)

And this is what we have been doing most Friday nights this summer.

I think this would be Chamberlain's happy place.

He absolutely loves roasting Marshamallows as he calls them.

silverfox + bahama mama =

 

 

Tigers Blood.

We finally made it to the best snowie place in Utah County,

Summer Sno.

The line every time we have tried to go this summer has been outrageously long.

However, not on Saturday when the sno gods alligned
it was destiny.

We had to pull over and and get some of that icy cold goodness.

We didn't just settle for a snowie we had to do it avalanche style. 

That would be adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream. 

SO GOOD!

I love this place so much, that in college Jennie O. and Kestlee D. roller bladed, yes roller bladed, from 

about Center st. in Provo to Summer Sno in Orem. 

It took us several hours, and we were almost run over by guy driving a Mr. T van, but we made it just before it closed.

I love this place. 

I will forever be a Bahama Mama,
Josh will forever be a Silver Fox,
and Chamberlain wants to try a blue
flavor next time!
