Freezer Jam

When my mom was here a couple of weeks ago we decided to make a couple of batches of freezer jam. Piper couldn't wait to help out. She loved chopping up the strawberries and raspberries with Doug's hand chopper. I think she could have done it all day. She had so much fun helping Grandma in the kitchen and surprising daddy with some super yummy jam.

4 Wheeler Fun

This past weekend for Father's Day we went to Oregon to visit Doug's parents. We had lots of fun things planned for the weekend, but alas the weather did not permit any of it to happen. Luckily though the rain went away for a bit and the sun came out so the girls were able to enjoy riding on the 4-wheelers with Grandpa and Grandma. Even though things didn't go as planned we still had a great time playing and visiting. The girls had an absolute blast and Doug and I got in some relaxation time. We can't wait to go back soon!

Guess Who?!?!?

As all of you know now, Piper loves Lalaloopsy dolls. She is obsessed with them. She loves each and every one of them and wants to collect the whole lot. Well the newest doll out is a boy named Patch Treasurechest. When I heard he was being released, I thought he would be pretty easy to find. Boy was I wrong. I started my search by checking all of our local stores - no one had him. I then went on-line. Again, out of stock. I resorted to calling stores when I knew they got trucks in (yes, I know a bit crazy) and still no Patch. I finally decided that I was making myself crazy and decided to quit looking and just give the little bugger some time to make it to Boise. Well, low and behold, Grandma Toni called me on a Saturday night. She had to run to Wal-Mart for something and there was Patch, in Burley, all by himself. She snagged him up right away. As you can see, he has found a good home. Piper was so excited to see him and add him to her collection. Thank you Grandma for hunting and finding Patch for us!

Grandma's Girls

While Grandma was here we all got dressed up to watch the BSU/Oregon game. Since we were all dressed alike, I figured it was a good time for a new picture of all of us girls. Thanks Ty for taking the pics!

Oh Boy!!!

Piper got a very special surprise at Grandma's house this last weekend. When we went to Holden a few months ago, Piper became obsessed with Miss Austyn's cowboy boots. She put them on her feet whenever she got a chance. Well Grandma has kept her eyes peeled for the most perfect pair and she found them. Piper loves them - thanks Grandma!!!!
