Okay Bunco babes....


So... it is my turn to host Bunco and I am currently trying to set up a night. Last time there were a few who said that the third thursday wouldn't work. So..my question is do we have it the 18th or the 25th? Both are thurs. (and unfortunately I work so we will have to meet at 7p.m.) Just comment what night works for you and tell the other Bunco members to leave me a comment. I personally would vote for the 18th because we haven't seen each other forever!!! Thanks muchas chicas.
Update...Plan on the 25th
I actually ended up getting someone to cover my shift for that night (I have to be there by 10 p.m. though to close as punishment... i mean as trade) SO plan on 6:30 p.m. and be prompt if possible. It's gonna be fun!!!

Prima Ballerina and Hot Stud




Ava absolutely loves her new dance class. She is taking it with a few of her little friends at my work. Her favorite move is putting "peanut butter" on one foot, "jelly" on the other then sticking them together and eating it. (Kind of a butterfly legs stretch). She looks so cute in her tiny leotard and ballet shoes.
Gage is turning into quite the handsome little mini-man these days. I just love being a mom!!!

August is over?!!!???






So I know I have been super lame this month with my posts and so here's a few pics from the end of July and all of August. It's a new day and I will try to be better:)
Basically (in a super condensed version) Mike ran a race that ended in City Creek Canyon, Ava and Gage got their pics taken by mom on the 24th of July, my two very favorite guys, and Mike and I celebrated our 6th anniversary up at Snowbird. What a whirlwind this summer was... still adjusting to having two kids and two jobs! We are a very blessed family.
