Brother Hyde came to assist in the process..

Swinging on those Park swings is one of the Hyders fave things..

Coast learning how to "pump".. Think we'll master that soon..

LOTS of fires this Summer.. Made for amazing sunsets though..

Oh Hyde, you look 5 with that BUZZZZ..

We finally made it to Cowabunga Bay this Summer, and had a BLAST.. We'll definitely be back next year..

Great water park decor..

My CB crew. Hubs, Coasten, and Hyde

My boys and I at the Bay..

Love em

After a day full of fun in the Sun, they passed out cold in the car..

Oh Boys... You guys are characters.. They love bath time..

Nate, Hyde and I were able to escape for a Sushi dinner one Summer evening.. Best Sushi I've ever, I mean ever had.. AMAZING! Oh now I'm hungry..

Love Asian lanterns..

Documenting our dinner.. Mmmmm..

Was on a decent running kick for a few weeks this Summer. Had to go around 10 PM but man it was worth it.. I AM GOING TO START BACK UP...

Beachy waves... Check!

Candid moment with my little man.. Ooo he makes me smile!

New pink pants.. They have pleats!

Love florals..

We took a family hiking trip up to Donut Falls.. Great times., but boy were we dirty! And I realized that we all need to be outfitted for the outdoors..

Love my family..

Standing in the very spot where our home will stand.. 

Uber exciting in my book...

And arent those boys incredibly handsome?

Took a stroll around Sundance.. My man, hands and eyes off!

My Coasten Faust Smith

My Hyde Graham Smith

All together in Sundance..

*Smiles*

An afternoon at the splash park with cousin Malija.. Shes so good with my boys..

(when shes fed and happy)

July 3rd at the Bountiful fireworks.. LOVE this day so much, its always a GREAT time..

Coast with some of the cousins on a bouncy slide..

C was so excited to ride this ride..

My Family on July 3rd, up at Gma and Gpa Smiths home..

4th of July morning parade in Murray with my side of the fam..

Its tradition and the kids LOVE running for the candy..

Daddy and the boys... He looks thrilled right? Ornery!

Hot and long, but its always a good time:)

Grandpa with Hyde

The gang minus Denise and Justin.. Party poopers! 

Ty even made a target for all of the candy throwers! Why didnt I think of that? Success

Odd Odd Odd! What the? Was their plan, to give all of the "kids" nightmares?

STRANGE...

Later on the 4th at the Sandy parade and carny.. Waiting in line to rock climb..

Day packed full of fun! My FAVORITE holiday ever!

Driest Summer on record I believe,.So we were thrilled when a rain storm moved in, taking away all of the smokey air and helping put out some of the wildfires around the valley.

Coast saw this teeny tiny snail on our steps and said "mom, its so cute!" and in true boy fashion smashed it with his shoe.. Boys boys!

Little lounge time with our hard working bust Daddy..

My first day on the Job after 4 years.. I was a little apprehensive, but I have really enjoyed some time away from the house and a little extra cash!

I miss all of my boys like crazy though! So I'm not sur how long this will last:)

Driving home after 3 long days away at training.. Missed my family:(

Coast asked if he could take pictures. Of course he can, I'm never in pictures!

"mom, can I take a picture of you jumping in the air?"

We have lived in Draper for 3 Summers now and only this year made it to the Draper Days Rodeo.. We had a wonderful time for all 3, yes 3 hours of it...

I'm Country at heart... Really!

So Coasten discovered The Phantom of the Opera this Summer, and is completely OBSESSED! He was hiding behind the chair, I could not see him so I said, Coasten what are you doing? There were bandade wrappers everywhere. He popped right up with his face covered and said "I'm the Phantom".

Of course I died laughing and though he was very creative!

We all loved watching POTO over and over again! Coast knows every song and scene be heart!

Very impressive, he'll be arty:)

We have LOVED all of the sprinkler fun this Summer!

Nothing says Summer quite like Lone Star Taqueria.. Its been a fave of ours since the dating years 12 years ago! Yummers! Coast was having a sleepover at Nanas so Hyde was the lucky man to join us for fabulousness!!

Draper Days is a must if you want fun free entertainment.. We love going every year!

Coasten and Katelyn in line waiting for the "Walk on Water" ride! He has loved this ride and for 6 dollars its worth it! You climb in clear balls that are floating on water. They zip up the balls, add air and off you go running away like a Hampster! LOL. its pretty funny!

The Phantom Coasten, in the mask he made:)

More sprinkler fun with my littles..

Nate turned 29 this Summer so I tried to make it a special morning/day/night for him. Surprise new birthday workout clothes for the gym that morning and then a new outfit for work that day. Couples massages for the 2 of us at Sego Lily Day Spa later that evening!! A.MAZ.ING!!!!

Birthday boy in his new duds.. Handsome right??

At the Spa. Didnt want to leave:)

Summer naps..

Olympics watching, we love the Olympics!

Making the boy laugh.. Love those teeth!

These sunsets have been incredibly beautiful...

One last day spent at Cowabunga Bay with cousin Malija.. WE HAD A BLAST... Im sad that we'll have to wait for next Summer! And I realized I need breast ogmentation!

Thanks to work we were able to spend an entire day and evening at Lagoon at half the cost! 100 dollars made it a lot more affordable for our family of 4 to go! The kids were exstatic, they'd been asking to go all Summer! Nate and I said that that was one GREAT day:)

Remember the days of the tiny rides.. Oh so fun. Loved seeing the boys faces just light up:) Made our day..

Morning cuddles, especially when falling back to sleep was a reality instead of a wish!

Morning cuddles between best brother friends.. Darling

Fresh August peaches... Mmmm

Love Summer flowers that surround this gorgeous structure! I'll miss seeing it were we live now:)

Slow nights at work wishing I were with my fam..

We've got a roof over our heads.. I love watching the progress daily. 

This is our HOME!
