Tonight I decided that I was going to make some bread! I have had some peaches and bananas that if I didnt use, they were going to go bad... I got a Banana Bread recipe from a friend and wanted to try it out. I went to my FAVORITE website.... allrecipes.com and put in Peaches.. the first recipe that came up was a Peach Bread. So now I am going to share with you!

Harley turns the BIG 8!!

Harley turned 8 today! I can not believe that my little girl is 8 yrs old.. Where has the time gone? Since she is at her dads house this weekend for her birthday, we decided to celebrate it on Sunday.. (Adam was also leaving out of town for the week for work, so it worked out perfect) We have been asking her for weeks what she wanted and she had a list... 1. American Girl Doll 2. Gift Card 3. Ipod 4. Converse High Tops 5. Scooter
Here are the pictures from her party... (sorry for the picture overload!)
The cake... she actually loved the colors...
Blowing out the candles... (Yes, Adam is clean shaved! He had to do it for work...)
After blowing out the candles, a present started singing 'Happy Birthday'
She HAD to open the noisy one first... She thought it was an Ipod.. one of the things that she really wanted!
BUT it was a cell phone!

More Presents... She loves jewelry..


Gift Card... Easiest present to buy!

Her Converse Shoes!

These are the cupcakes that I bought for her class on her Birthday, I loved them and so did the kids! (you should have seen the red, yellow and blue teeth after!)

Happy Birthday Harley! We love you!

Winner, Winner. Chicken Dinner!

Spanish Fork Fire Department does a 'Duck Race' every year. It is a blast for the kids to go down and watch the ducks come in. They have been doing it for a few years and this year someone in the family ACTUALLY won!
It was not the BIG prize, but Harley was excited to say she won!

Going Flag!

For the 24th we celebrate all out! I love Fiesta days! I talked to Harley before the Parade and asked if we should do her hair like a flag. She totally loved it! I think she loved that people kept on asking her who did it and how long did it take... (it only took 25 minutes)

Flag Burning Ceremony

Spanish Fork has been doing a Flag Burning Ceremony for 12 years now. This was my first time ever going. I now think that it is going to be a family tradition. It was pretty neat to see what they do and how they do it. There was some pretty awesome speakers, a few new recruits and a ton on Patriotism. Here are a few pictures of the night. Hope you enjoy!


This flag was taken down and the first one to be put on the campfire.




A new flag put up!
