I love summertime! It's so nice to have warm weather and to be able to be outside all day. We had a lot of fun this last week. Grandma and Diddy (Cristi) came to visit. They drove down and spent the week with us. We had lot's of fun swimming, going for walks, going mini golfing, shopping..., it was a really fun week. We took Kyla and Haley mini golfing for the first time. Kyla had lot's of fun, and Haley was great as long as she was strapped in her stroller. For some reason that is the only place that she holds still, she loves to go anywhere in the stroller and she is just content to sit. Back to mini golf, we stopped keeping score after the first couple holes, because after we would hit the ball, Kyla would gather them all up and put them all in the hole, so I guess we just all had perfect games! We spent a lot of time down at the pool as well, it's been in the 90's, so just right for the pool..Kyla would swim all day if we'd let her, she just puts her little arm floaties on and swims from one end to the other. Haley loves the pool as well, and she has no fear of anything, the last time we went she was walking right off the edge and into the pool! We also bought a little blow up pool, and since we have rocks everywhere in our yard, we put the pool on the trampoline. Kyla and the guys (Brayden and Joseph, her best friends) loved it, they went up and down the slide, in and out of the pool for 3 hours straight. As for Jared and I, we're just trying to keep up with their energy. We're still working on getting paperwork together for our house, and it's all coming together slowly. We will most likely close on the 1st of July, and then we get to start painting, and doing yard work. We can't wait!! I'm going to try a few new recipes this week, so I will post them after I see which ones are good. I did make a raspberry-peach cobbler this week, and it was really good. So here's the recipe for that one:
Raspberry-Peach Cobbler
2 (15oz) cans Peaches (drained)
1 cup fresh or frozen/thawed raspberries
2 Tblsp sugar
1 Tblsp flour
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
Stir all of this together and pour in 9x9 greased pan
topping:
1 white cake mix
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 cube butter melted
Use a fork and stir together until it forms clumps
Spoon topping over Fruit
Bake at 350* for 30 minutes, Serve warm with vanilla ice cream

Thank you for the recipe!!!! I'm trying this soon! It sounds so GOOD and summery!
so it the rumor really true that your not coming to Bear Lake????? I am so sad I was so looking forward to seeing and talking with you! I was going to tell you too, that it must be something about that #2 kid, they must not come big, Emmalee is also very tiny Milo is about to pass her up in weight Emi weighs 26 and is 4 years and Milo weighs 23 and is 1 1/2 years. It sounds like Haley is going to be the exact same. Funny
Melissa, I saw the link to your blog on the McIntyre's - your girls are getting so big! Glad to hear you're all doing well. I'll have to try the cobbler - you always had the best recipes!
Congrats on your home!! You guys are grown-ups now! I always love your recipes, thanks for posting them!
