The last couple weekends...

I am catching up my blog from the last couple of weekends, finally! We went to Boise the weekend of the 6th for a quick trip. I had a maternity shoot to do and even though the rain was bound and determined to keep us from doing it..we got it done and they turned out way cute!

It was a lot of fun hanging out and spending time with my grandparents, dinner at Tegan's, seeing Trista & Chad's darling new baby boy, going out to lunch, and breakfast with my sister! All of those who I didn't get to see, I will be back at the end of August for an engagement shoot..but I want to come for a little bit longer so we can play! Girl's lunch anyone? Let's plan it!

Here are a few pictures from Boise.

(Brandon was showing off his mad skills at jumping off swings!! haha)

(We were having a blast at the park, and all the sudden it started to pour! We got soaked..but got a good laugh out of it!)

This last weekend we had a family reunion brunch with the DeMill side of the family. We had dutch oven breakfast, fruit and yummy pastries!
It was a lot of fun to hang out and spend time together as a family. It's definitely not the same without Grandpa there, but I am sure he was there with us in spirit.
We went with to my dad's after and had fun hanging out with him and Jacque.
We took my dad to Jason's Deli for dinner for Father's Day and it was so yummy! They forgot the cheese on Chayse's grilled cheese though. Really..how hard is it? You have ONE thing to put on the bread..ONE..and you forget it! Haha! Oh well, I still love the place!
I have pictures from this weekend, but I haven't had the chance to resize them all so I can upload them to here! I will do that later! :)
Well I am off to make yummy treats for my fun girl's night/house warming party tonight! I will blog about that later!

Happy Birthday!

We would like to introduce you to....

ANKLEY

Who is Ankley you may ask?

Well let Chayse tell you...

"She is my 'maginary' girlfriend!"

What does she look like?

"She has brownish hair, bluish eyes, and purple legs"

How old is she?

"She is 5-ish."

Where does she live?

Up north..on 6th North.

What do you and Ankley like to do?

"We are going to go on a mission and get married in the temple."

~*~

Chayse has been talking about Ankley since January. He has very elaborate stories about their adventures together. We also found out that her Mom (Dern) is going to have a baby soon. Chayse is excited about that.

Up until last Thursay, we hadn't gotten the pleasure of meeting Ankley. She came over when my cousin and her husband were over for dinner. Chayse was so kind and made her some food and set her out a plate up in his room.

She came over again tonight. Chayse set out chips for her but wouldn't share his bologna sandwich because "she doesn't like that kind."

They are off to a party now...Chayse is wearing a girl's dress up robe.

(Should I be worried?)

:)


P.S. Pictures of the townhouse are coming soon! I am pretty much unpacked..I just want to put up my vinyl sayings and some window coverings! I am getting the internet tomorrow, so I can rejoin the blogging world with full force. I have been a bit of a slacker! Hopefully I haven't lost my faithful readers. (If I had any to begin with that is! ;) )
