NOAH'S BAPTISM

Loved sharing this special day with Noah on April 12, 2014.  Cutest cousins EVER!

BEAR LAKE PARADE OF HOMES

My sister's husband is a builder in Bear Lake and built this gorgeous home on the golf course.  They entered it in the Bear Lake Parade of Homes.  Andy did all of the metal work including some of his custom furniture being featured in the home.  And I got to help my mom and sister decorate the place.  SO MUCH FUN!

Natalee's Room complete with chandelier, bunked bed and a balcony overlooking the great room.

Nash's Room

Living Room - gorgeous rock fireplace surround that just keeps going up, up, up.

And last but not least, Andy's custom railing - I LOVE how it turned out.

My camera was not cooperating so these are iPhone photos.

Suprise Birthday Party

Over the weekend we had a surprise birthday party for my mom in Park City. It was planned as a picnic but the weather forced us to find a last minute backup plan. We got a reservation at The Farm restaurant at The Canyons. They had a huge umbrella room that was encased in glass. It was a great setting.

There was much anticipation leading up to Gigi's arrival.

My mom thought she was going to dinner in Park City with my sister Brie and her husband and my dad. So, they arrived at the restaurant and were seated at a table for 4. Meanwhile, the rest of us hid out in the restroom area.

Mylee, Natalee, Noah and Ally could hardly contain themselves!

The place was so fabulous. Love these chairs.

And all the details.

And, since I am usually behind the camera, this is as much of me as the camera caught. Don't have a clue who took it.


Gigi was surprised!

It was so fun to see everyone and spend the afternoon with my mom.

Doug Bingham Family Reunion 2008

We had a quick getaway to Bear Lake for our family reunion. From boating, hiking and crafting to the Pickleville Playhouse melodrama, it was a smashing time! The highlights of the weekend included:

1. Making the traditional family breakfast of Eggs Golden. Have you ever seen these commercials called SprintCuts? They are pretty hilarious and when I saw Kevin and Holly with a pot full of boiled eggs to peel I knew we had to try it out. It did work once or twice but when they say exhale with gusto, they mean it!

2. Bicycle Built for 6. Riding these fun bicycles on the bike trail was a hit and we were fortunate enough to run into a cute little lemonade stand right when we were panting and thirsty.



Andy was showing his biking skills on the banana bike!

3. Pranking on the Beach. We put Natalee up to dumping water on Andy and you can see the mischief in her face!


4. Boating, tubing, and skiing. I love this picture because Ally is giving the signal to cut it and Andy is giving the signal to speed up.





This is me lounging in the boat, but I did water ski, it just didn't get photographed!


5. Our hike, or attempt at hiking.

Thanks everyone! We had a really great time.
