Beads and Time

Ah Pintrest, my latest online distraction.

Yep I am!

I found this on Pinterest and fell in love

with the color, NOT the price

I think it was listed at $82

So I made a trip to Micheal's

and for $20 I got everything I needed

It took me a couple times, but I figured it out

and lots of time. 3 hours to be exact
Dishes did not get done, we did not go for a walk

I sat down with a chick flick and my quiet time went way to fast

This is what I came up with

I love it, now I need a black and red one.

Oh and a cute pic of Jaxton
He is 9 months old, where did time go?

It's Beginning to Look Like a Zoo In Here!

I'm sure if you have not seen my house you have seen pictures of it, and you agree it is small. Don't get me wrong, I love my house, but it is a little over 700sqft, two bedrooms, one bathroom. It is home to two adults, one very active baby, three cats, three fish and now.... A PUPPY!!

Meet Meeka. She is half Malamute half shepard mutt-mix. She is 6 1/2 weeks old and the runt of the litter. We have had her for three days and she is already part of the family.

Jaxton's First Camping Trip

There is so much that has happened since my last post but Little Manman has kept me running in circles so they have not gotten posted. But this I had to get up.

Jaxton and I met my parents and grandparents on the North Fork of the Clearwater for a weekend of fresh air, clear water and campfire cooking. Jaxton had a blast and actually screamed all the way home. He slept so well in the tent on the ground and gave everyone attention.

Lots of pictures so here goes...

Jaxton decided he did not want to use a spoon to eat his carrots tonight.
I think he had more on him than in him :)

Big Sky Country

We went for a hike today Sidonie, Jaxton and I. Once we were at the top I was reminded of just why I love Montana. Once we got away from the hippies, bicycles and roundabouts, once we got above the road construction and crazy drivers I am rewarded with this view.

I just love those two!

Silverwood & Cabella's

Thanks to a local TV station and a gas station I won 4 tickets to Siverwood/ Boulderbeach theme park in Idaho and a gas card to get us over there. Last Friday Robie, Jaxton, Sidonie and Robie's mom and I went over, we had a blast. The weather was just perfect warm and partly cloudy, just enough to not over heat. And since we went on Friday it was not too crowded. We each got to ride a few rides and splash in the water. Jaxton of course made out like a bandit, his Daddy and Mamie spoiled him rotten in the gift shops, they also found out he likes pickles.

So in my family Cabellas = Toy Store. Jaxton got to go on his first trip to the Toy Store, which would be no big deal except that the closest one is 2 hours away

Summer Sunshine

It's finally here, the sunny summer weather we have been hoping for for so so long. We have spent every minute we can outside. Jaxton just loves it out there we go out every night for 30min or so before we get ready for bed.
So naturally when the long weekend hit I made sure we had lots of sunscreen, floppy hats and a camera :)

Happy 4th of July!!
