Ben's Golden Birthday + Miscellaneous

Ben turned 25 on June 25th which apparently is called his "golden birthday" Anyways, he was spoiled and got Costa Vida for his bday dinner and raspberry white chocolate cheesecake for his cake! And I FORCED him to blow out candles:) He got a salt water fish tank for his present. And did I mention that he received ALL of these prior to the his actual birthday? Yep, most impatient person ever!!

Now onto the miscellaneous...we have been having some REALLY hot summer days and I always feel so bad for my doggies, but I keep their pool filled for them! Here is Hunter relaxing in his pool...

Next, speaking of dogs...Lexi had puppies again. We were REALLY hoping she wasn't pregnant, but anyways, nothing we can do about it now! We now have three girls and two boys for sale. Let me know if you are interested! Here is a pic of one...

And last, but not least, here are a few random pics of Allyson! (what, you think I can do a post without a picture of her? I think not!)

Camping...

Well, our first adventure of camping in a tent with a newborn was not as bad as I thought it would be. We went to Bartlett Lake with some friends last weekend and it was way fun!

Tired baby

The dogs...I think they actually had the most fun!

Allyson tolerated the water this time...she would cringe when we would put her in it but then she would just relax and fall asleep! silly girl. i love how Hunter is randomly swimming in the background lol

Adam & Kaitlyn

Please ignore the boobage...

She loved being in her peapod!

Happy girl :-)

Every morning I get to wake up to these sweet faces!

2 month check-up

Last week Allyson had her 2 month check-up and shots:( Here are her stats: 12 pounds, 23 inches (75th percentile for both).

Jorden Lynn's Wedding

A couple weekends ago we were able to attend the marriage of Jorden Lynn to Cade Ashton. It was a beautiful little ceremony and we were happy to attend:)

Memorial Weekend 2010

As you can see by the OVERLOAD of pictures below, we had a very fun memorial weekend!

There was a lot of spoiling this little one...

We spent a day up at Big Lake with Arden, Capri, & Lauren. They went fishing...sick!

On the way back from the lake, Aunt Ashley gave Allyson a little taste of ice cream! And as you can tell by her facial expressions, she loved it!

COOL GIRL

There was a lot of 'jammin' in the boat which consisted of ashley rapping...

Just about everyone tried out the new wakesurf...Eli was the only one who conquered it completely!
