Our Fourth!




















Okay, so it's a week late, but oh well. You have to see these cute pics of our very uneventful Fourth of July. We were bums and stayed home (my family left) and went to the scout breakfast at the church and was really lazy the rest of the day, until we went to Kyle's brothers house for a barbeque and fireworks. I have to say it was really fun. I love his family, very entertaining! Case eventually had fun with the sparklers, (cool pic huh). Then Jared and Ryan were the chosen pyros to light the fireworks. OOOH, AAAH. We were giving them a bad time! :) And I got all the cousins together for a cute pic of all their heads together from above, and FYI, it works better when there's not a bazillion kids! Ha Ha. It turned out cute nonetheless. Eva was not happy as you can tell!



















What a Crazy Christensen Clan!














Pretty sunset before the fireworks.














Cool Sparkler Case!

I'm Terrible!!!!!!

OOOH, goodness, how the month of June quickly went by. Why is that? Why do the days seem to go so fast? It's not fair! Well, here is our month of June in a nutshell. Enjoy!

My aunt's cat had babies so we went to see the kitties. Eva LOVED them so much! She really is an animal baby! She loves to pet any animal that will let her. Especially Sadie, my parent's dog. Look out baby kitty- here comes Eva!






































Gotta love the bed-head! This is Eva first thing in the morning. And yes, she is always this happy every morning. This day was especially cute! Love you sissy!



















Playing at the park in St. George. So I carted my whole family to town one saturday to get my hair done and we decided to eat lunch at the park and let Case play. He loves the park and Eva did too!

























































A cute snap of my cuties!



















We went up to Beaver Mountain for the annual Chamberlain Reunion. Well, it's every other year now! We love camping and Eva actually did too. The only thing we didn't like was the mosquitos, but my new OFF clip-on fan worked pretty dang good! Eva and Case didn't get any bites. I did of course, but I had to wear my capris, so that's my fault! We love having our trailer to stay in, although it didn't prevent Case from the wonderful BLACK dirt on Beaver Mountain.














The highlight of the reunion- canoeing on Tushar Lake. Case and Kyle caught some pretty big fish too!














Oh Goodness, a face only his mother could love! He's so handsome! He and Sahara had way too much fun in the dirt!



















Eva loves her stroller, especially in the mountians!

Stamp Club and Cards!

I am loving being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator. I love coming up with the projects to do every month when we meet. This month was Christy's party at her house. Here's the gals working on the 3 tier pop up cake card that we made. Some of them wanted to kill me---------- but we worked through it and got it done. The projects turned out really cute!

Here's my mom Faleen, Michelle, Lue, Cassy and Cassie
















Elaine and Linda
















Christy, our hostess




















Michelle showing her cute cake card!



















My favorite of the 3 projects- using the "Fresh Cuts" cards and stamp set
















The front of the cake card (I know, retired scallop stamp, I have no birthday sets!)




















The inside of the card- using the Pink Flamingo Designer Series Paper. Cute huh!



























Here's the one using 4 new In-Colors and "Trendy Trees" stamp set. Nice and easy- I stitched on the paper with my sewing machine.




















Here's Christy's WOW project- it was very difficult but it turned out okay. Just don't look too close! This is using the Good Morning Sunshing Designer Series Paper.





















And for the inside- Cute daisy cut with the Big Shot. Man I love that thing!




















I made this post for you Tam! We miss you and love you tons!
Love Tiff

So much to do.........

So for Memorial Day, we decided to go fishing at our Reservoir. We had a fun time. We roasted hot dogs, and Case and Kyle even reeled in a huge fish! (not really) Miss Eva was good, and liked watching the ducks on the water and eating rocks (really.)








































































Fun Bags! For Case's Birthday, my sister Tara gave Case a big Capri Sun bag with swim stuff in it. She has been making these bags since she was in high school. Well, I decided it was time to make one, so this one was for my niece Kaylee's birthday. I also made a tiny one for my other niece Lila's birthday. The vinyl bag is a Stampin' Up! concoction. My sister-in-law got the instructions from Convention last year and I made 3 for Christmas presents (Tara, Mom, Tessa) They are so fun and so original. You can use absolutely any paper and ribbon in the world. I am making another for my church tote, so when I get it done, I'll post it. Fun and hand-made!

Pictures of my Casey Boy

When Case's birthday rolls around, which seems way too often, I have his pictures taken. In the past, I have gone to Kiddie Kandids and easily spent at least 100 bucks. Well this year, that was not going to happen so I asked my Aunt if she would take them. She has been taking pictures my whole life and is way good! The pictures of him turned out awesome. They are my favorite! Case learned when he was tiny to smile every time I get the camera out (which is alot) and is so photogenic, on top of being handsome! Happy Birthday Bud! We love you TONS!!!!!!!!

Updated... Finally!

Wow! Where does the time go? I can't believe how fast a month (okay, almost 2) goes by! We have had a great Spring and are looking forward to the warmer weather and being outside. Here's some pics of our latest activities since I posted last!













Easter Sunday- All dressed up in new clothes for church!






















Case's Birthday- May 3. He's 4 now! Where did my baby go? Case had a great day and got lots of fun presents- his favorite was his new bike from mom and dad and new fishing pole from
Papa and Grandma Deb. We went to Pirate Island and swimming at the new Washington Community Center. If you haven't been- you gotta take your kids! It's great.























Me and Eva on Mothers Day- Case was too busy to take a picture with us. Taken in my mom's backyard in front of the pretty lilacs!






















Case's end-of-preschool program. He has loved preschool and his teachers this year. I sure am glad he has another year left- I am not ready for Kindergarten! They sang 3 songs and then they had a 'circus' with games and popcorn, hot dogs, and a pinata. It was a very chilly windy day, but we had fun.






















And this is Miss Eva gettin' around! She is definitely on the move and doesn't want to sit still, unless it's to eat! She's doing a good job of scooting in her cute little way- no crawling yet- for
which I am thankful because I'm going to lose my mind when that happens!
