Etsy Store

loricool.etsy.com

So, I opened a little Etsy store to sell a couple of quiet books (I actually already sold one YAY), and maybe I'll put some different stuff on there in the future. So if any of you guys are interested check it out. (I won't be making anymore quiet books just incase anyone was wondering, they took way too long to make.) If you've never been to the Etsy website you totally should. I love it! They have so much awesome stuff, I'm kind of hooked.

4th of July

Hope everyone had a great 4th of July & weekend. We had a nice one. We we're really missing the downtown Provo festival. We always love going to that, but this year was different & fun. We went to a neighboring small town, they had a funny little parade, but before the parade started they had a fire truck and hoses spraying the street and people. It was really hot so it was awesome. The parade had the local high school marching band and some army cars, then after that it pretty much had semi's, an RC Willey moving truck, I think a tractor, some local churches on trucks, so it was just kind of funny we thought.

Later that night we went to a 4th of July bbq that a guy in our ward put on. After the bbq the guy did a ton of fire works. It was amazing, it was a big show with the big fireworks it was really awesome. Brandon was pretty afraid, but got a little more used to them. He loved pop-its this year. It's crazy the fireworks that you can buy here, Ben bought some just to do on the street and they ended up being some of the smaller of the big cool ones that fly into the air with different colors and stuff. I didn't even think you could just go buy those. It was pretty awesome.

The above and below pictures were taken by Brandon. I like the one of me because I sort of look small (a camera trick I can assure you), and Ben looks the opposite of small with a little head. :)

Utah trip

So, we went down to Utah for the 2nd time in June. (I don't think I even did a post about the last time, it was a lot easier to blog in the winter when there wasn't anything to do, anyway). We went down this time for Dan (ben's brother) & Pam's wedding. It was great to see them so happy and fun to see some family we haven't seen in a while.

I made their wedding cake. They wanted a pool table cake, so it was a fun cake to make.

Brandon went on this slip and slide and Grandmas house, someone needs to show him how to slide down it though, nevertheless, he had a lot of fun in his tighty whities.

Cute Bridger!

It was so awesome to get together at my Mom's house. My cousins came over and it has been forever since I've seen my cousin Nadia, and just a long time since we've gotten to be together.

My Mom & Nycholle

Carlos, my Mom, & Jen(ny)

Monique (my sister in law) came over too, it was awesome to spend time with her too. Missed you Tim.
It was kind of a cool that we just happened to run into my brother Bob/Rob & Maria and family while we we're down there. We went to Bajio for dinner and they we're there. It was awesome to see them even it was only for a few minutes.
