Fun in the Sun

Visiting a Large Pet

When I got home from work the kids, Sheldon, and his parents were out helping a neighbor, who is the Bishop's mother-in-law. When they were done we visited the Bishop's family pet. The kids loved it. Nixxon wasn't sure at first but Abbie new exactly what it was when it came trotting out.

New Hair cut for Nixxon

It was time to give this little guy a hair cut. He gets so hot, especially in the summer. There were some that were sad to see the curls go but I figure it is better for him to keep cool. Besides the curls will always grow back.

Dirty Dash

We were able to run the Dirty Dash in Soldier Hollow to benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (Salt Lake City) and the Soldier Hollow Legacy Foundation (Salt Lake City). This was my first 5K, Sheldon's 2nd. There were hay bales to jump over, walls to climb over, tubes to crawl through, tires to run through, net to crawl under, slide to slide down, water hole, and most of all the mud! This was one crazy fun obstacle course I have ever done. The people that ran this year with us were Shalan (Sheldon's oldest sister), Cameron (his younger brother), and Taylor (my brother). We made out outfits and ours were simple compared to others. It almost looked like Halloween all over again. People were in dresses, dressed as bees, fairies, thing 1 and 2, nerds, bride/groom, and tons of others. We are planning on doing it again next year, we had so much fun. If anyone is interested I highly suggest you do it. If you need learn more about it or want to register here is their website www.thedirtydash.com

Wow Look at me.... Mom

Nixxon is always full of energy and is playful. This morning I put both kids in the car to move it so Sheldon could get out. As I was putting Abbie in her car seat I usually let Nixxon play as if he was driving, probably not anymore. When I went around to get him out of the front he was determined on not moving. He had the steering wheel tight in his grasp. I tried to get him to get out of the front but he wouldn't budge. He jumped and hit his head on the windshield. I noticed the windshield move up and then back into place. I looked at Nixxon and asked if he was okay. He didn't cry or anything he just looked at me like what was that. I checked his head and everything but nothing. I got into the car to go over to my mother's. When I got in to my surprise I found this.

I took him to the doctors to make sure everything was normal still. He was surprised to see the damage and yet Nixxon being fine. He even said he would never want to get in a fight with him.
