Time to drive home... already??? As we drove out of town, we made the must needed stop by Glendora's famous "Donut Man"!!! The drive home was about an hour shorter thanks to no long stops. We were also able make four trips to In N Out on our six day trip. Not bad, that should hold me over on cravings for a least a week or so!!!! :)

Nothing like a day at the park! This picture ranks in my all time top 5 favorites of Damien. This kid might be a mama's boy, but I sure do love him!

Never mind the fact he is in fact eating dirt or rocks here! :)

I couldn't resit.. you get two today!

Today was SO hot. That is why I picked the first picture that I did. We were at this cute museum of trains and there we all our crowding in shade.

We also went to the Zoo and ended the evening with dinner in Jeanine's back yard. It was G double O D! :) Yum!




This picture was taking by Lauren I think, we refer to it as WT babies! One word: Awesome!! Hot, tired and wore out, anyone??

It's going to be hard to pick just picture a day from my trip... but you can always check out the full album on my facebook page.

Day 1

Today was a free day. Some were at Disneyland, but after our long drive we could not imagine trying to get up early, get us and kids ready, then walk around all day long. Soooo we spent some time with my grandma, mom, sisters and cousin Lauren. We went to a little water park. The girls loved it!

I chose this picture because Kaylee has NO fear. This girl is a crack up! Cute Kaylee!

Whoa, It's about time I go ahead and update this project!

Today was the first day of our VA-Ca to Southern California. Shauna and I drove the 4 kids down all by ourselves. This was quite a ordeal. About 40 miles down the road one of the strollers started to come loose on the roof. You should have seen us out there on the side of freeway trying to secure it back on. Who needs the boys anyway???

Can I just say... How the H did our parents travel with out DVD players? LIFE SAVER! I could go the next 8 years without seeing Finding Nemo, but totally worth it! It was a long drive, but we did it... and that my friends is all that matters!

Since having kids I don't get my hair done nearly as much as I used to. This also means my hair is soooo much longer than it used to be. Ruby is the best! She always does such a great job. Well here is the latest. LOVE IT!

Today Memphis and I went up to Heber to hang out with Brett, Marie and the whole fam. Every year they do a fish fry. Years and years ago I can remember telling Brett I didn't like fish, but he told me to just try it... and I did. After I ate that piece I wanted another. I never knew I liked fish!!! So now if there is a fish fry I am there!!! I love Heber. I could live there. Brett's aunt and uncle have a large property so the kids can play without much concern. I found Memphis on this lawn mower and was having such a good time. I took some pictures and then I got a little closer... My child had taken half her diaper off and it was FULL. There was poop everywhere. I stripped her down and literally chased her with the hose. She spent the rest of the time up there in JUST a diaper. Total WT. Even better... I took her into Target in just that diaper to buy an outfit. So embarrassed! Brett awarded me the "mother of the year" award. Ummm, awesome?! I think! Ha ha!!! Despite all that, it was a fun day and the fish is just as good as I remember it.

Mike's old roommate Chris and his wife Jill came down from Logan, we went to the temple and then to the Training Table! YUMMY! Memphis thought her crayons would taste better than her chicken! Strange child!!!

"No Longer a Secret"

The other day the girls at the Chiro office were asking how I get my hair so curly. I said "Hot Rollers"!!! It's pretty time effective and most of the time it's done at the office--so that's good! :)

"Appies"

Memphis thinks nectarines are apples(LOVES THEM) and always calls them appies. She saw Mike making salsa and wanted some of his appies and took a little bite... ha ha ha! Not was she expected, and not a fan of appies in tomato form! :)

It's a Skousen tradition! It's the Riverton Days Parade. Salt Water Taffy anyone? Yum! This is Kelly, Memphis, Kaelynne and Lindsay. Memphis loves these girls. :) After seeing Memphis with those tot spot chairs I know we really need to get her one. She LOVED it! The parade was fun. I took the kids by myself and even rode Mike's bike with the trailer. Can I just say... that is A LOT of work. Good exercise though. Nothing says the 4th of July, like a good parade!

(thanks for the picture Heather)

I have a confession to make... this picture was not taken on the 2nd of July. Sorry!

Recently Memphis and I went to a Luau for my old boss Tim. It was his 50th surprise birthday party. It was a lot of fun. Mostly just hanging out and catching up with old friends. Memphis looked so cute in her little Hawaiian dress.
