On The Road

I love technology! We are on the road going up to Ashton, Idaho for the Thompson Reunion but I'm still able to be on the computer. It gives me something to do while Evan is sleeping! The plan was to get some work in but for some reason I keep losing my remote connection. Oh well! Now I can do whatever I want. Anyways, this should be a fun week/weekend. Sand Dunes, Temple, Yellowstone and being with family. I'm really looking forward to it.

Standing!

Evan stood for 3 seconds on his own today! Sorry it's dark. I wanted to get it on video. You get to hear his laugh too.

4th of July Weekend

We are both so exhausted but it was worth it to have a fun weekend. I want to start out by saying Thank You to the men and women out fighting so we can enjoy a day like the 4th.


Not only were we celebrating our Nations freedom, we were also celebrating Leanna's 18th Birthday. We enjoyed our time with her and the family. Before she went off with her friends, we went bowling. Evan was so good while we bowled. He slept the entire time. After Matt's dad kicked out butt's, we went back to the house and had a yummy BBQ. The ice cream cake was extra yummy!

We never made it to the big fireworks because we were just too tired to drive. We normally drive into Nephi to watch them because hardly anyone goes there and it beats driving there to avoid the traffic in Provo. We got to see some fireworks at the Stadium of Fire since we live pretty close to BYU so we didn't miss them entirely. Today was another eventful day. My sister Ellen was baptized. My brother Ammon was the one that performed the Baptism and my Dad confirmed her.



I had the opportunity to sing "If the Savior Stood Beside Me" with my sisters and Ammon's girlfriend. We had a celebration in her honor by having another yummy BBQ. Later on we went swimming. All my family (Felts) minus Dad, Nathan and Elizabeth came. It was a blast! Evan was just too funny. We put him in his floaty and he just takes off! We had a hard time keeping up with him if we were laying or siting in the water. Take a look!



Than here is a picture of Abby and Evan together.

Sand Dunes

On the spur of the moment, Matt wanted to ride out to the sand dunes. We got our cousins Steven and Kevin to come with us. We first stopped to get a yummy dinner before we headed out to the middle of no where. When we got there, we had the whole place to ourselves.



Evan was a little unsure about the new feel of sand but shortly decided he loved it.




He just wanted to crawl everywhere





It looked like he was going to tumble down that hill. He was trying to get to his Daddy.

While I was playing with Evan, the boys had fun jumping off the hills, rolling around, playing king of the hill and just being goof balls.




The Icee's we had on the way home were so good after playing out on the sand. We had a lot of fun with Kevin and Steven.

Grass

Like most babies, Evan hates the grass! He loves to eat it and maybe even sit in it but when his head hits it, it's a different story. I could tell you what he does but it's better to show you.

Richard Marx

Last night Matt and I went to the Richard Marx concert. This was mine and Matt's second time seeing him and he was just as good as the first time we saw him a year ago. He had a few stories that were the same but a lot of new things. He's just a great entertainer. I'm glad we got to go a second time to watch him.

Earlier in the day we took Evan to the pool. Matt has been out of town the entire week so it was really nice to have fun with him after a long absence from him. Leanna came with us so that way we were able to enjoy all the amenities that the Provo Pool offers, like the slides. We took turns going down them and I couldn't believe how fun they were! Since this was the third time I took Evan to the pool this last week, he's gotten used to it so he LOVES the water now. He's become such a water baby. Before we even set foot in the pool, he get's so excited when he sees the water.

Splash

I took this from my phone so it's not the greatest quality but Evan was so cute in the water so I video taped a little bit of it. He was a little hesitant in the water at first because he's not used to cooler water but once he got used to it he was a happy boy. He had an interest with my knee for some reason. He zonked out just 5 mins after putting him in his car seat and wouldn't wake up for anything when I got him home. We had lots of fun with Aunt Elizabeth and Amy. We should do this more
often.

Family Pictures

It's been a while since I got our family pictures back. I will post as promised but I will only post my favorites. You can view the rest of them in the little slide show.

Peek-A-Boo!
