Chino Youth Museum

For play group last month we went to the Chino Youth Museum. The kids had so much fun with ALL their friends. We drove with the Westovers. Five kids and two adults in a car made for seven. Don't they all look so cozy. You can see all of them in some way.

Little Annie, who is sometimes the ONLY girl in the group of friends, being all cute in her tutu in front of the vanity. I would have said mirror but thought I should keep it as feminine as possible.

Ballerina Astronaut Annie. She wore that tutu the whole time.

In jail. What a cute little boy.

I had this smart idea of going to a dairy after the museum. Katelyn thought it was smart too, until we got there. First we got lost because we thought it would help to look for cows while looking for the dairy. No cows, just a warehouse. No ice cream cones either. We were a bummed, but decided to go anyways. We had to go in a small office and order what we wanted, by the box. Next we took our order slip to another spot and waited for someone to bring us our treats. We thought we were ordering some what normal otter pops, but they turned out to be HUGE. The kids loved them, I am sure it was probably because it was a huge thing of sugary juice.

I am still going to try and find a dairy where it actually feels like a dairy, you know, real cows and ice cream. When I do, I will let you know.

4th of July

We spent the 4th of July with our wonderful friends, the Westovers. We started the day off on a double date, shooting. Lots of fun, too bad Katelyn only had her camera. Maybe someday I will get some photos. We ended it off with a bbq at Jared and Ashley's with friends and family. Porter and Ethan loved playing on the play set, and they played very well together.

Ethan and Logan Westover playing in the water. They were such goof balls, adorable goof balls.

Grandma Jones and Annie. I love snapping pictures with grandparents in it. It seems I never have enough.

This was a favorite, pushing down the hill in the cars. Don't worry, no one got hurt.

I LOVE Katelyn's face in this one. She was not so sure about her boys going down. Logan, the one on the left, wasn't so sure about it either.

Cute little Jaxon. If you look closely you can see teeth marks on his cheek. That, I am sad to say, was cute, little, innocent Annie. I am sure she was just trying to give him loves.

Picture with my girl!

Logan deciding if he really wants to go down ....

and he did, and he loved it.

Lots of fun in the sun with our friends and family.

Blueberry Picking

I am going to catch up on all my blogging. A couple months ago we went blueberry picking with our play group. Did I mention we have a play group? I love it!! It keeps us super busy with all our new friends from our new ward, which means we bought a new house, which I love!! Maybe some day I will put pictures of our new house. Back to the blueberries. The kids loved it. I think I picked most of them, but I let them think they did all the hard work. Porter just had to get his picture with this sign.

I love this picture of my little man with all the blueberry bushes. It was so beautiful and the blueberries were so huge.

My cute little Annie, being all beautiful.

Some of our friends: Logan, Parker, Porter, Annie and Ethan.

Most of the kiddos in front of the chicken coop. What a beautiful day.

Now it will be my goal to catch up on all the fun outings we have pictures of.

The Letter F

The kids and I went up to my parent's the week after Memorial day. On Friday we went up to the lake while Grandpa went fishing. We decided since Grandpa was going fishing with his friends on a Friday, we could celebrate the letter "F" as well, so we ...
Played with a frisbee,


Grandma went fishing for the frisbee, which Porter threw in the lake,


Ate fishes.


We found a feather,


Flowers,


And a fern.


I guess Grandpa thought that fishing with his friends was not enough, so he added falling and fracturing his finger (really his thumb). Get better grandpa!!


Some extra pictures from the lake. We spent about 6 hours there.





Porter loved playing in the mud and water





We played baseball with a stick and pinecone


The kids danced on the stage

Simply Fondue

My birthday was Friday and Job and I went to a favorite, Simply Fondue. We had a groupon that had a four course dinner for two which included a bottle of wine. Since we do not drink, the bartender made us these drinks. We think it was some sort of strawberry kiwi thing. It was good and not too bubbly.








First course was salads. Mine was blue cheese, walnuts, croutons, tomatoes, cucumber with a vinagarrete dressing.


Job had a wedge salad with blue cheese, tomatoes and bacon. Both were delicious!!


Second course was cheese fondue which came with bread and veggies. Our cheese was cheddar with some kind of veggie or tomato broth, garlic, basil pesto and sun dried tomatoes. Scrumptious!!





Third course was our meat and veggies. We each got two pieces of coconut shrimp, bacon wrapped tenderloin, herb crusted mahi mahi and garlic chicken. There were six dipping sauces. We cooked it in a little oil and garlic. Super yummy!!











Finally was our chocolate fondue which was a peanut butter, milk chocolate with walnuts. The waitress lit the chocolate on fire and let us roast our marshmallows. I was not paying attention and burnt mine.


Job toasted his over my birthday candle. Look at all the yummy dipping treats; bananas, strawberries, rice krispies, brownie, cherry, pineapple, peanut butter balls and cheesecake pieces.


Burnt marshmallow.








We ended up so so so stuffed from all the wonderful, delicious food. We will definitely be going there again!! Thanks babe for a wonderful evening.
