Weekend Highlights

What a great weekend. We had so much fun spending a lot of time outside and all of our time together. Nothing is more enjoyable than having fun with family and friends. Friday night Matt and I watched "I Am Legend" and "27 Dresses." This wouldn't seem like that big of a deal but we haven't seen a movie in months. The rest of the weekend included mowing the lawn, setting up bunk beds, a BBQ with friends, and lots of game nights. Monday we went to Hawaiian Falls Water Park for a neighbor's birthday. We came home, rested, and then went to Joe T Garcia's with the Mathis Family. We've had such a wonderful time together and I am sad that Matt had to go back to work this morning.

Matt and I were hesitant to open the bunk beds since they were so inexpensive but they are actually really nice. They are super durable and sturdy. To be honest, I like the look of them more than the 90% of what we had previously looked at. The only bunk beds I really liked more wouldn't have fit comfortably in Sienna's room and cost over $1200. I'm just excited to finish the girls' room now!!! Thanks Matt for spending the afternoon putting these together.

Sienna helping set up her new beds. She loved playing with the stud finder because she could make it beep and light up.

The final product. She thought it was so neat laying on her new bed. It'll be awhile before we have her sleeping in it but I think she'll like it.

This is the bedding that we are going to put on the top bunk when we get another mattress. We got the bottom mattress for free and haven't taken the time to buy the second.

Scary, I know but this is us at Hawaiian Falls. We went with some friends for their son's birthday. It was so much fun and Sienna loved it.

Sienna relaxing on Matt in the wave pool.

Enjoying some waves.

Taking a break to get some "appa dew."

Mouth full of crackers reaching to get more cheese. Sienna was so good and had a blast at the water park. We spent most of the time in the wave pool or lazy river since she can't go on the rides. She thought it was so fun to splash. We would take turns having her sit on our laps in the tube while the other would splash and tease her. Sienna was getting so frustrated that she couldn't reach both handles on the tube at the same time. She would grab one and then reach for the other. She also thought it was so fun to push mommy away from the tube. I would grab onto the handles and the would push me under the water. We were shocked at how daring Sienna was and how much she loved having water splashed or dumped on her from the different toys. She would even stand at the end of the wave pool and let the waves knock her over without getting upset.

Playing with Audrey last night after dinner.

I love the bunk beds - they are PERFECT! I am jealous that you went to the water park, it looks like a lot of fun and a BBQ would be fun. The one we did at the lake ended up kind of funny since we had ground beef instead of hamburger patties?? Who knows? Try eating a hamburger like that.... anyway, I'm glad you had fun. I mostly read a book all weekend.

Cute beds. Sometimes the less expensive ones are just as good as the upper end ones.

Enough about the tank top on Wil Sunday. I need to take those out of his drawer to avoid another mishap! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Don't feel bad about not having the 2nd matress for your bunk beds yet....we've had ours for a while and still don't have the 2nd! You guys look so cute at the water park with your pregnant belly! I remember the days of wearing maternity swimsuits and just appreciating not being hot!
