Heber Play-Date

So last week I went up to Heber to visit with one of my oldest friends, (we have been friends since elementary school days) Mckell. It was so fun to see her again and let the little kids play. Her daughter Hadley is SO cute! At first things were a little, whats the word? HOSTILE. Haha. Hadley is a little rumbler, but so is Zayne. They started out mostly fighting over toys...


Here is CUTE little Hadley, I think she looks just like her Mom.
Here they are sitting on the couch while we TRIED getting them to look at us so we could take a picture of them... this is a good as it got.

McKell had set up a swim pool in her backyard for them to play in... they didn't really play in it though, mostly stood outside of it and played.

Then Zayne decided to try a trampoline for his first time EVER! He loved it, I have video of it but can't get it to upload for some reason. Grrr. I love this picture of him and Hadley though, so cute.

Then after all the fun of playing on the tramp and sliding down the water slide we took them to feed the ducks. This is them in the car before we headed off...
Zayne was SO excited to feed the ducks, squealed the whole time when the ducks would come up for the bread. It was so fun to watch the 2 little ones. One duck came up onto the grass to get some bread from Hadley, it was so fun for them.


And after a fun day with McKell and Hadley it was time to head home, and good thing we left when we did cause Zayne was tuckerd out.

THANKS FOR THE FUN DAY MCKELL AND HADLEY!

BaCk YaRd CaMp-OuT

Last night I did the 1st Annual Backyard Camp-out... it went..... pretty good. Here is me, super excited about the camp-out, and Zayne really into is coloring...


Me and Zayne put up the tent (ya I don't need a man to put up the tent for me, I got this single mommy thing down!) It was pretty easy and Zayne LOVED it! He thought it needed to be shot with the bubble gun a few times to break it in, lol, I LOVE him!


Here he is checking out the inside of the tent for the first time...

Then it was bubbles & S'mores time! He was more into the bubbles than the S'mores, oh well, pretty sure next year it will be the opposite.


Then he wanted to slide the night away! He slid down the slide a good 100 times, no joke. He got pretty daring and went down backwards, sideways, and even tried going down naked (he didn't like that way all to much.. friction can be a bitch, lol)

Once it started getting really dark he walked the grounds, he was loving the whole playing outside all night... until it got dark.....Sadly enough about the time we were gonna go to sleep I realized Zayne isn't to fond of the outside once it is dark (he must take after his mommy, I am scared of the dark outside, I think I may have watched to many UNSOLVED MYSTERIES as a kid and to many CSi's as an adult). Then it started to lightning, thunder, and rain.... so we had to move indoors.

Maybe next year we can pull off a whole night outside. All in all it was fun and I plan on doing it a lot more with my PRIDE AND JOY! Being a mommy is the BEST thing in the world. You get to do all the things you loved as a kid with you own child and see their face with all the smiles and laughs.

Brushin' his teeth so they *SHINE*

Zayne LOVES brushing his teeth SO much! If you go into the bathroom or even just into the laundry room you know he is RIGHT behind you and before you can get the door shut he is already pulling his stool up to the sink. It is a cute thing, but can get annoying, Haha. Here are some pictures I took yesterday of him. ENJOY!
