Ice Bath

I get to stay home with my girls all day every day!
I am so grateful that I get to be home with them but sometimes the monotony of our days makes us all a little crazy!
So I've been searching good old Pinterest to find some fun ideas to give us a little more variety!
Today we took a colorful ice bath. 
Have I ever mentioned how much the girls love ice?
I froze some ice with food coloring and then let the girls play with it in their bath. Next time I will have to freeze more because after two trays full, they were saying, "more! more!" 








Now they think the ice cube trays are their new bath toys.

July Instagrams

It's a real blast to take the girls to the store by myself these days. They refuse to sit in the cart. They'd rather push it.

Patriotic Shaved Ice :)


Some more pictures from our 4th of July. Sorry for the repeats.

Elmo's batteries were dead for a while & I didn't miss him but apparently Wrigley did. When I put new batteries in him she was so happy & giggly. She gave him lots of hugs & carried him around all that day. 


The girls have spent many days playing outside in their pool. And I have spent many days sitting on a chair watching them/studying.

Morley's funny faces. 
Such a goof :)

The day before our Denver trip, Jeff took Wrigley with him to get the oil changed in my car. So Morley & I walked down to visit the horse that lives down the street. 
She's seriously obsessed. 


Ready for a long ride in the car!

We stopped at McDonald's in Grand Junction for dinner and I asked Jeff to watch the girls while I went to the bathroom. I came back & he said he lost them. 
Can you find Morley?


The girls are always wanting me to wrap their dolls up in blankets but this day I was wrapping them up & they thought it was so funny!

All ready to play in the rain :)

Mike bought tickets to the American Idol concert to take a date but it ended up falling through so he gave Jeff & I the tickets. And he even watched the girls so we could go!
We sat in the 5th row & it was so much fun!





Jeff brought home a baby snake one day & the girls were obsessed. Yikes!

Any Bachelorette fans??
I met Jef from the Bachelorette at Costa Vida!! He was so nice. And he ended up being the one Emily picked!

The baby Jordan's that Mike gave the girls for Christmas (when I was still pregnant with them) finally fit!


Jeff was doing a little animal show for the Scouts in our ward one night and he borrowed Maggie's turtle for it. Wrigley couldn't get enough. (She's pointing to it's nose in the picture on the left.)
"Turtle" is one of my favorite words that she says. 


Flowers from husband. 


"Cheese!!"

We went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner one night & Wrigley really enjoyed the cinnamon butter! :)


Yogurtland date with Grandma.

A day on the lake with friends.

We went shopping in Park City with my family one day.

 Shopping is hard work! ;)

Wrigley likes to "help" sister get down from her chair after lunch.

Fireworks on the 24th of July. 
I thought the girls would love the sparklers but they didn't. They both wanted to touch the fire & were mad that we wouldn't let them. 
They both loved the other fireworks though. As soon as one ended they were signing & saying, "more! more!" 

(m)(w)

The girls have loved having grandma watch them twice a week while I have been at school. She always has a yummy treat for them.

Wrigley brought one of Maggie's old dolls home last week & hasn't let it out of her sight since. She sleeps with it, eats with it & everything in between. 


First tube ride behind the boat! 
Morley giggled the whole time & Wrigley fell asleep.

The girls are getting curls in the back of their hair. Love it! I hope they stay!

I haven't found out my final grade in Anatomy yet, but I got an A- in Physiology! So so happy!


We went to this cool park in Saratoga Springs last week. It was seriously the coolest park. We will definitely be going back there.

Can you believe it's August?! I can't!
