I looked out the window and what did I see?

First of all (this part has nothing to do with looking out the window), Tyson has been studying night and day this week preparing for his chemistry 2 test. He has worked so hard on school this summer. It took him 2 and 1/2 hours to finish 25 problems, but he got and A-! I am so proud of him! It's nice to finally see his grades reflect his hard work.

Anyway, after that he went to work and Easton and I spent the day at home. Around 4 the power went out and was out for over an hour. I thought it was strange that it had been out for so long from just a wind storm and I started to worry about or freezer thawing (I later learned that freezers stay frozen for days, so not to worry). Anyway, Tyson got home from work and we went to visit Grandpa Page in the hospital who just had a total knee replacement. We visited with him for a while and were happy to find him recovering pretty well.

We drove home from the hospital and as we turned around our little corner to get to our driveway, this is what we found...

Apparently it was sort of our fault the power had been out for so long. They pretty much cut back our trees to nothing. We'll be cranking up the fans for the rest of our summer since our shade is gone! And now when I look out the window I will see trees on the ground. Until Monday. Lovely.

So Much Fun Stuff!

We have been so busy lately! So we're trying to take advantage of every summer moment we can! Last weekend we got to go boating at Utah Lake with Tyson's family and Casey, Kristi, and Ace.

Ace and Easton loved playing together! Except Easton kept trying to kiss Ace and Ace wasn't having it.

They shared lots of grahams with each other.

Then last night we went camping up Spanish Fork Canyon. We found a perfect little spot that was away from all the other people. Tyson bought a dutch oven and cooked us a really yummy dinner! We were sad lots of our friends couldn't come, but glad Shawn and Jana made it for the camp fire!

We brought Easton's playpen for him to sit in while we set everything up.

He LOVED just being outside and eating grass.

We borrowed Hayden's truck since we no longer have a truck to use our truck tent on. We love that little tent.

Easton loved the tent too. He slept great!

We all had so much fun camping! The weather was great and it was so relaxing! Now we're just waiting for the fireworks to start!

When dad has the day off

Tyson is all done with his first summer semester and started the second one Thursday.  With his new schedule he doesn't have school on Fridays, so he gets to watch Easton while I'm at work.  They had lots of fun together.  I got this picture sent to my phone from the Walmart toy aisle.  Easton came home with his very own xylophone.  

When I got home at 8:30 the dishes were all done and dinner was cookin on Tyson's new grill he got for Father's Day.  He's the best!
