Memorial Day!

Our Family had a fun weekend! Sunday was my birthday and it was a great day! At first Bailey refused to say Happy Birthday to me. She is so funny! For some reason she hates the Happy Birthday song and screams and cries whenever we sing it! She is making progress though. By the end of the day she was singing Happy Birthday! Spencer was so great! He got the children ready for church and prepared and cooked dinner! We had dinner at and spent the night at Spencer's sister's house which is about 45 minutes away from our house. She made a delicious spinach salad and the strawberry cake you see above. I love Strawberry cake! The next morning we went with Spener's sister and her family to Jeremiah's. Jeremiah's is a restaurant in Ogden. They have great breakfasts. We were all going to go hiking after breakfast but we had lots and lots of rain, which prevented us from hiking. We sure enjoyed our weekend with family. Bailey sure gets excited to see and spend time with her cousins and Aunt Kris and Uncle Ben. Thank you Ashcrofts for a fun weekend!

Sunday night the kids did sparklers. Bailey was a little unsure at first, but seemed to enjoy it.

I think this was an exhausting weekend for little SWB!

Big weekend!

Little SWB in his first Ned's Krazy Sub shirt. Cute kid!

This is our back yard! Isn't it a pretty sight! We just had cement poured so we could have somewhat of a patio. When we bought our house the only "patio" it had was the little cement slab you see under the stairs. It was 4 feet wide and 11 feet long. So we had two 10 x 11 slabs poured. We are enjoying it!
We were finally able to get Spencer's trailer with all of his lawn equipment up here, with help from my mom, and he is so glad to have it here. We had to borrow tools to work in our yard before we got his stuff here and it was driving him crazy. Bailey was having a good time riding on the lawn mower with her dad! I just thought this was a cute picture of little SWB!
This is the day of his blessing! My mom got this cute little Amish outfit for Spence to be blessed in! It was perfect and a perfect fit!
This was Sunday evening after little SWB's blessing. Bailey had a full weekend of family, cousins soccer games, working in the yard and church. She was so exhausted that she fell asleep right on the kitchen floor! She is still catching up on sleep!
Before Church/SWB's blessing.

This last Sunday we blessed little Spence. It was a great weekend. Spencer's dad and brothers came from AZ and so did my mom. It was great to have them all here and spend some time with them. We are grateful for their love and support and their willingness to come up for little SWB's blessing! Saturday everyone was kind enough to help us prep our yard to be trenched for sprinklers. We raked, picked weeds, and picked up lots of rocks! We can't wait until our yard is in and we have grass! I am so tired of dirt, rocks, and weeds!

Cute Kids!

Bailey is really enjoying her role as big sister. She is always so helpful. She always wants to hug, kiss, and hold her brother.

This morning Bailey wanted 3 pony tails and this is what her hair looked like today! Little Spence has started to coo and can be quite chatty. I had forgotten how fun it is to hear little babies coo.

Little Spence is the spitting image of his father!

I was looking at Spencer's baby pictures and little Spence looks quite a bit like his father! At least I think so. However, little Spence has quite a bit more hair than his father!
I just thought this was such a cute picture of Bailey! I can't believe how fast she is growing!
Bailey really wanted to hold her brother and he was very excited to have her hold him!
