Son Of A Bee!

We were at Braden's parents and the boys wanted to jump on the tramp. Alek was already up there and Jaxon was climbing up, he put his hand on the frame and a wasp flew up, stung his hand and then twice on the side of his face. We rushed him inside to take care of him. While we were inside we heard Alek start screaming, I ran out and the wasp had stung him on his forehead. We put some Aspirin paste on them and they were fine. The rest of the day they were totally normal. We went home and went to bed and when they woke up they looked like this...
Alek's forehead and down his nose were swollen, I think he looked like a Klingon from Star Trek. Jaxon just looked like he got in fight, his eye was swollen and his looked bruised. We got them some Benadryl and we went on with our day. And by the end of the night before they went to bed, they looked like this...
Jaxon's was a little better. But poor Alek just kept getting worse. This morning when they woke up, their faces look a little better, but not back to normal. Poor boys.

Also this weekend Joye got her first PONY TAIL!!!!! I never thought this day would come! I put an elastic in then put in a little bow, and her hair isn't long enough to poke out. But I can't complain, at least she can have a pony!
We also had another pet for a few days. I was in the backyard feeding the dogs and found a pretty big snail. I brought it in to show the boys and Jaxon kept saying, "Oh he's so cute can we keep him" So I gave in and got a container and the boys went out and got dirt, sticks and rocks. Jaxon named him Gary the Snail. How original huh?

South Weber Days!

Last weekend was South Weber Days. We had a fun time. The boys got to ride on the dance float, then they danced at the park. We ate lunch and had fun looking at the booths and playing on the toys. We spent the day at Ricky's house, then went to fireworks that night! Joye fell asleep as we were walking to the park and slept through the entire show.

Everybody waiting for the parade
Apparently it was a little chilly
Here we are on the float.
Raimee, Me, Alek, Jaxon, TaNesha, and Sierra
Here are the boys. Jaxon as usual and Alek being very brave!
We were so surprised when he went out and danced! He was awesome!
Joye already loves to talk on the phone. Boy are we in trouble!
We let the boys get spray on tattoos. They thought they were so cool.
Jaxon got a soccer ball with flames and Alek got a baseball with flames
Before dinner Raimee decided to give herself a facial and Joye didn't want to be left out. So Raimee put cucumbers on her face for her. She left them on for a pretty long time. She took one off her cheek and started to eat it. My favorite is the cucumber on top of her head!
My camera's settings were messed up and i didn't realize until I got the pictures on the computer. I tried to lighten them up the best I could so that's why the pictures are weird.
