We went to Lake Powell a couple of weeks ago. My family goes every year and we were unable to go last year because Jaycee was so new. We had such a great time. Jaycee loved floating in the water in her little crab. It was super hot so we spent a lot of time just floating:)
Every night it got really windy almost everybody's tents broke. But it wouldn't have been a Bailey vacation without some sort of weather inclement. I seriously think this is the first time I've ever been to Lake Powell with out it raining! crazy, I kind of missed it.
I think half the reason I like to go is just to get to spend time with my family. I love just sitting and talking to them, or playing "Queen of the water Tramp" or whatever we do. We always have such a good time. I have the best family:)

Oh and by the way, I am the Queen of the water Tramp!

Freedom

Happy July!! I am so thankful for my freedom, for this wonderful country that I live in. For the men and women who protect my freedom everyday, for the opportunity that I have to choose where I want to go to church, work, shop or even to play. I am truly blessed to live in such a great place.

Happy Birthday Jaycee

Wow, I can't believe that it has already been a year!! Time goes by so fast. Jaycee is our only child, she is the light of our lives. She always makes us smile. Shes a little tease. She loves to scuz people off. Its pretty embarrising. I was at the store the other day and the lady working the counter said "She's so cute how old is she?" Anyway Jaycee gave the lady the biggest scuz. That's not the first time and Im sure if wont be the last. She's moving all over the place now and she gets more fun everyday. Im looking forward to all the things she will accomplish this year! We celebrated Jaycee's birthday by going to the zoo in the morning and having her little party that night. We also went to Doug & Emmys for breakfast. Jaycee wasn't as impressed with the zoo as she was with the aquarium. We still had fun. She was really scared of that big ape her and Mike are sitting by. It was kind of funny, because I've never seen her be scared of anything.


For her party we just invited my family and Mikes family which is about 30 people. We had it in our backyard which worked out nicely. We had a little pool and slip and slid. Jaycee even got in the pool and liked it, she also liked the slip and slid. My mom gave her a little couch that she loves. It's so funny to see her sitting on her little couch. She looks so big.
I really can't believe she's one. What a year.

Happy Birthday Jaycee!!

Happy Father's Day!

Mike is such a good dad. Jaycee lights up when he gets home from work. It's really cute. And she always looks for him, even when he's not home, especially when Im changing her diaper or her clothes. Because when he is home he plays "peek-a-boo" with her when Im doing those things. It's pretty funny. Mike would do anything for her. I tried to tell him he's going to make her a stress eater, because every time she gets hurt or crys for any reason he starts giving her food. Maybe that one of the reasons she likes him so much. :) Just kidding Im sure it's because she can feel how much he loves her. Anyway like I said, Mike is such a good dad. Happy Fathers Day Mike!!

Washington Part 2

We took a little trip to the Seattle Temple. Jaycee's first temple trip. Jaycee and Emily sat in the waiting room. Emily said Jaycee was very good. It was a nice little trip. After the Temple we went to a glass museum. It was pretty cool. You could watch how they made blown glass. Then they had a lot on display to see. It was a good day. Oh, and Mike wanted me to include that we also ate at Jack in the Box.
