Busy, Busy , Busy

So I haven't had much time to update my blog lately, things have been Crazy. So here is a little bit of what has been happening lately.
-We all came down with the stomach flu. Cash, Tacey and I had it at the same time, but of course somehow Clint didn't catch it at all. Guess that was lucky so he was able to take care of the kids while I was too sick to take care of anything.
-Tacey has decided to try potty training, AGAIN. Hopefully this time will go better than last time!!
-Tacey has also started sleeping in a "big girl bed". I was dreading this day for a while but I knew it had to come eventually. The other day I put her in her crib for a nap and she came walking out of her room a few minutes later, so I knew it was time to make the switch. I am very proud of her though, it has been an easy adjustment and she has been staying in bed all night and at nap time.
-Cash is teething again and is really fussy ALL the time. He is also learning to walk. It won't be long now and he will be running away from me!

I will post again soon with hopefully something more exciting and some pictures.

Cash just learned how to clap, as you can see he is really excited about it!

Our weekend

Friday Kyle, Deanna, Colette and I went to Makutu's Island. All the kids had so much fun. It was our 1st time going and we will definitely be going back.

Saturday we spent some time outside with the horses. Tacey and Cash love it out there.

Tacey's Rodeo Trip

This weekend Tacey went with Clint up to the mountains, just the 2 of them (Cash and I stayed home). They left Thursday and got home today (Sunday). They spent the weekend with Clint's family, roping and hanging out. The trip started in Payson roping at the rodeo grounds. Friday was spent roping in Cornville (which is by Sedona). Saturday they roped in Dewey. She had so much fun. Tacey absolutely loves going roping, riding horses and spending time with Clint's family.

4th of July

We had a nice relaxing 4th of July weekend. We actually got to stay home which was nice because it seems like we have been gone a lot lately. Our 4th started with a ward party 1st thing in the morning. There were many activities there that lasted all morning, one of them was a hot dog eating contest. Clint decided to enter, and lets just say he didn't do very well. He ate 2 1/2 hot dogs and then grabbed the nearest garbage can and threw them up. He ate the least amount of hot dogs and was the only one who threw up. It was really funny, and no one in my ward is letting him live this down. That night my sister Shannon came over with her friend Tammy and her 2 kids. We played out side in the water, BBQ and had our own mini fireworks show.

Catching Frogs

Tonight Tacey was begging me to go outside with her uncle's and play. It is really nice at night time at my house, I live farther out (in the country on a dirt road!!) so it cools off in the evenings. But because of where I live sometimes I get to deal with the "natural habitat". So here is the weird part, at my house in the summer at night we get frogs. They aren't much of a nuisance, in fact they are nice to have around because they eat lots of the bugs we don't want around. But still it was something I had to get used to. I think it is really weird, I have no idea where they come from and I never see them during the day, but as soon as the sun goes down they are everywhere and not afraid to come on the front and back porch and they aren't scared of people. The first time I went outside at night and saw frogs I just about had a heart attack. So tonight Spencer and Stratton (the twins as we call them!) thought it would be fun to see if Tacey would hold one. To my surprise she loved it and wasn't scared at all. She just kept picking them up and laughing. I am sure that thanks to the twins she is going to be begging me every night to go outside and catch frogs.
