Summer time and the livin is easy…

Honestly this is probably my favorite thing to do in the summer time… What is it? Absolutely Nothing.. just to sit around and enjoy one another on a hot summer afternoon… (usually with a little bbq… some fruit & a cola in your hand) Love my family & i love the moments like this that we have!

Fathers Day

Warning: Don’t read if you hate mushy stuff

Happy Fathers day to the best daddy ever! Just have to go off about my husband and what a good dad he is! Since i went back to work and my schedule is pretty crazy… he has been so kind to get his tired & sore booty out of bed each morning to bathe, feed & dress this little bugger. Did I mention EVERY MORNING! I know that is what a typical mom does? So what? Right? No. This is different. Ryan has a hard labor job and usually doesn’t stop until 6 or 7 at night.  But he gets up and does the same thing over and over. Ryker gets up pretty early in the morning and stays up too! So its not like Ryan gets the rest he needs all the time. On top of that Ry helps with him in the middle of the night as well. He really is such a good daddy and has definitely stepped up his A game. I’m grateful for him and all his hard work! Hope you had a good fathers day!

Me and Ryker skipped the last class (shh dont tell). He wasn’t being the best behaved little boy he usually is anyways. And we came home to make the breakfast i didnt get up at the crack of dawn to make. ha. Omelets. They turned out fabulous!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A tribute to the best Father Ever! Your my hero dad. I don’t think you realize the example you have set for me. Honestly… I have looked up to you in so many ways. From your kind heart, to your many ways you serve others, to the humble patient man you have always been in my eyes. I’m so grateful for the times you pushed me to get back up either from riding my little red bike without training wheels, to daring me i couldn’t go up sand mountain, or giving me a fathers blessing to help me pass my hair test. You’ve always been there for your little girl… whether i got in a wreck , something broke on my car,or when i was a snot and would always take your money. I’m so grateful to have a fun loving dad like you! Hope you got your annual fathers day nap in ;) Love you!

Ro-Deh-ho

After Ryan got back from Youth Conference we decided to hit up the PG Rodeo for some good old fashion entertainment and of course there famous burgers and STAWBERRIES & CREAM!

DSCN0266

DSCN0267Yes, i think Clay and Natalie wanted to get a picture with us? There cool like that?  

DSCN0269DSCN0268

Crazy to say… this was our first “date night” without baby Ryker. It was great to get out and spend some quality time the hubs!  

DSCN0265

p.s. anyone agree with me about the half time show being on the lousy side?

 

Parade…

Agreed… Parades aren’t what they used to be. I feel like there one big advertisement rather than pretty floats and fun talent to watch. O well… Its the memories right? At least that is what it will be for me. While Ryan went to Youth Conference I took Ryker to the parade. And met up with the family. Good old Strawberry days!

Carny Bums

Yes. we joined the circus of all the wild people… (we actually did it twice) I only got pics of the first time. We went with our friends Natalie and Clay and there 2 cuties! Lets just say it was hot and super great to check out the weirdos…

Ryan looking like he is enjoying himself right? After this picture he said to me: “Remember when you were a little kid and really liked to come do this stuff? I dont really care for it”. I just laughed. Telling him he’s in a world of hurt out kid isn’t even beggin to go yet?

DSCN0246

This is how Ryker felt about the carnival. Guess it was pretty boring for him? Hmm…

7-peaks

So yes, i attempted 7/peaks. Ryker was asleep for a good little while when we got there. He woke up and looked like this. (Happy boy) We hung out on the towels for a little while and then i decided to put a swim diaper on as well as some sun block. Didnt care for that. Started to fuss. I decided we were going to try the water our anyways…

And this is the end result? He hated it. O well.. better luck next time? Lets hope!
