Special Agent Training

For some reason my internet hates me! I have been trying to upload these pictures for a few weeks...Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...So I will post what I have and try again!

Wyatt's birthday was so much fun! We had a Special Secret Agent Training day and completed a Secret Mission.
After receiving special instuctions and breaking codes...the boys were ambushed by the Rogue Agents. Here are some great photos from it...




This cute little guy just got done telling his dad that he didn't get hit, when one of the Rogue Agents came up and sprayed him down!!
After the ambush, the boys had to make their way through laser beams to get to the case which held the code to defuse the bomb.




Defusing the bomb...

This was such an exciting day! Thanks to all of our Special Helpers: Mrs. Boyce, Specialist Trainer; Nanny, the Chef; Keri, Assistant to the Chef; Keisha, the Aftermath Clean-up; Ashlee, Assisstant to Commander-in-Chief; Rick and Bryan, the Rogue Agents; Poppy, the Photographer; Randy, the Translator; and Dad, the Pilot!

Summer Fun...Long past and gone!

I hope that this post is successful! I get pretty frustrated with our internet sometimes...It seems to hate uploading my pictures! So...We had a busy, fun-filled summer and I just wanted to add some fun pictures of the kids and some of their activities.

Wyatt had a fun T-ball season. He is such a good little player. The only bad thing about this year was the color of the team shirts. Wyatt was terribly disappointed...Pink...Come on! So, the coach told everyone to think of a cool team name. Wyatt wanted to be called The Legends, but one of the moms thought it would be funny to name them The Pink Panthers. Ha Ha Ha...Wyatt was not impressed. Poor kid. He did not put on his shirt during the first game until he saw that all of the other boys were wearing there's too. There were only 2 girls on this team...not a cool color for a bunch of 6-7 year olds!


Garrett went to swimming lessons with his best buddy Micah. They are too cool! They enjoyed playing Mr Shark, Mr Shark What time is it? And, Garrett loved going under the water. He learned a lot and lost pretty much all of his fear of the water...Garrett is one crazy little man!


One of our friends gave us a cute little playhouse. Alyssa loves it and, even though it is pink and purple, the boys have fun with it as well. We spent the WHOLE day outside the day we brought it home! Thanks so much, Olsons!!

We had a HOT...I mean fun 4th of July! We spent the day in Boise at a car show...not a usual event for us, but it was a lot of fun. A few of the highlights were seeing Mator from the movie Cars, Bumblebee from Transformers, and catching a glimpse of the Fonz from Happy Days! "What Momma don't know..."

Later that evening the boys decided to have a mud bath! Yikes...They started out like this...



and ended up like this...




We then went to see the Mtn Home City Fireworks...It was a lot of fun!

And, what better way to spend your summer time than by eating watermelon!
We are very grateful for the liberties and freedoms which we enjoy being here in the Grand Ole US of A!!
