It's June! That means we are half way through this year. I often think that I wish I could capture tiny moments through out the day because I forget them so quickly. Like the funny things Mckenzie says. Or the moments when Channing and I are kicking a soccer ball. And when Isaac shows off his dance moves. I hope one day we can rewind our lives and enjoy it in slow motion - the good moments anyways. The breaking up fights moments we can fast forward through.
On May 25th, before heading to a game night, Justin and I went out to dinner at Diablo and Sons in downtown Boise. The downtown scene is so different! We enjoyed some very unique tacos. Then we walked to Ben and Jerry's for some amazing ice cream. Mmmm, so good. The Tonight Dough is still my fav. Then we went to a friends house and played Jungle Uno. It was super fun!
Mckenzie got a cute haircut. She's the cutest! Then we drove to the Meridian temple and enjoyed walking around the grounds. When I asked Channing what do we do in the temple he said, "It's were we use the priesthood." Amazing answer!
On Memorial Day we went on a hike to Elephant Rock. No idea why it's called that. Short, easy hikes are our current stage of life. And I'm all for that!
Mckenzie and I picked flowers the whole walk. Every minute it was, "oh here's a good one!"
We've been getting a ton of rain lately. May had lots of rainy and stormy days. One day Channing and I spotted a double rainbow. When Mckenzie saw it she said it was a "miracle."
We planted a very small garden on the side of out house that gets a lot of sun. We've planted zucchini, green beans, and pumpkins. I'm excited to see how it does this summer. Channing's really gotten into gardening and wants to check on the plants every morning. Every time a new seedling pops up they get so excited!
These are some fun pictures we took before church on Memorial weekend.
I enjoy the moments when Isaac mellows out and snuggles in my lap. This only occurs when he's watching a show.
Mckenzie is all about having a friends over to play. And they usually play amazingly well together. 3 year old girls are the cutest! I love their imagination.
Channing has now lost two teeth! His bottom two. He's so excited when the tooth fairy visits. This is a picture Channing drew at school. He even drew the tooth under his pillow! And I love how he spells toothfairy, "tofarey." Haha!
Another picture Channing drew at school is him and Justin out camping and sitting by the fire. They went on a father and sons campout this weekend and had a blast! Justin even won the dutch oven dessert contest!
This weekend I took Mckenzie and Isaac to have a picnic with Evie. Evie passed away almost 1 year ago. It does not feel that long ago. I think about her everyday. Mckenzie is my constant reminder of Evie and how precious life is. Mckenzie was so excited to have a picnic with Evie and called it a "celebration." And I agree! We are so grateful that we knew Evie and we celebrate her everyday by doing our best in this life.
