August

August flew by in a flash we finished up the summer with some beignets, and some BBQ. Then it was off to school. Lizzie has one more year of Preschool or rather Pre-K if you ask her, and she is loving it. She gets to ride the bus, make lots of friends, eat lunch in the cafeteria and even check out books at the library. She goes everyday from 11 till 2:30 she will be so prepared for all day kinder next year! The other day she told me she was so glad that we put her in school this year because she has so many friends! Surprisingly recess is her favorite part of school.

Just look at all the helpers he has, even River got in on the action!

Lizzie getting ready to get on her bus!

Couldn't resist the superhero picture!

In Lizzie's class this year they put together a scrap book so they all could learn a little about each other. We had some fun taking pictures of Lizzie around the house to put on her page.

Happy 4th!

July here can only be described with one word, HOT! We spend a lot of time at the pool with friends and the rest of the time inside! It's kind of like winter in UT just opposite, if that makes sense. We have awesome friends and the Fourth was super fun even if we didn't have any fireworks this year, due to a severe drought!

Only a father would let this fly, she thought it was great!

Our annual Fourth of July bike parade was a hit this year!

The Joys of June

With summer in full swing around here, schools out and we are having some fun!
Getting ready to go swimming is almost as fun as the actual swimming itself.

What's better than a warm summer day and a sucker, not much I'd say!

In this heat who doesn't want to walk around like this, I would too if I looked that good in my underwear!

What girl doesn't need a little pedicure so they can look fabulous sporting those sandals!

We broke down and bought them both bikes so they could get some exercise, I don't think the training wheels will be off anytime soon though!

Playing with friends and having some fun!

My May Flowers

What can I say we had a lot of fun in May! We flew into UT on the 9th and that evening we had a birthday bash for Papa Wayne he turned the big 60! Individual pictures turned out great but put together dinner time and group pictures and this is what you get!

Only in UT does it snow in the middle of May, it was cold to say the least!

Papa Scott built Lizzie this really neat tree house, she loved it and she even made a sign to put on it, no sisters allowed (she was allowed in only for the photo).

Charlie hanging out with one of her best friends, Papa Scott!

We made it down to the dinosaur museum at Thanksgiving Point, it was a lot of fun!

April

April flew by in a flash:

April started with a picnic with friends during Priesthood session, the boys barbeque and enjoy the session so we thought we should have some fun too!

Grammy came in for a quick visit and of course we had to make a trip down to the Zoo!

Also just ask anyone Grammy Loves to color Easter eggs!

Charlie turned 2 on the 23rd, we had a little party with a little food and some presents!

March

March was the month of Charlie, most of my pictures are of her so I tried to sneak in a few of Lizzie. We potty trained Charlie, celebrated St Patrick's day and also had a unexpected visitor who Lizzie tried to adopt (Sorry blogger messed up the order of my pictures and I can't get them back).

This little guy was in our garage one Sunday morning, Lizzie wanted to keep him but I just had visions of him getting loose in our house.

Potty training Charlie was a breeze she was done completely in three days, this kid is very candy motivated!

We literally color Easter eggs at least three times before the actual holiday!

Happy St Patrick's Day!

I think this was the last day of rain that we have had.

The butterfly house at the Zoo!

Playing Catch Up: February

I really wasn't going to play catch up, but as I was organizing my pictures I decided that there were some cute ones that I just couldn't forget about. My girls are growing up so fast and I am so worried that I am going to forget something. For Christmas Uncle Wes and Aunt Danae gave us this really cute book and after only a couple times reading it Lizzie had it memorized, here she is reading it. For some reason I forgot to take pictures on Valentines day so this is all I have for February.
