Happy 1st Birthday Brooklyn!!

I can't believe my baby is 1!! Time goes by so fast.
For Brooklyn's birthday we went to the lake on Grandma Gin's boat.
It was a great day! Happy Birthday Brookie, I love you!

Dance, Dance, Dance

Alex just started dance. I think she is really going to enjoy it.

Makade's 1st day of school

Makade's 1st day of 1st grade. He is now going all day. Having recesses and school lunch. He thinks he is pretty big. Okay, so I am the mom that likes my kids to dress up really cute for the 1st day of school. I wanted him to wear khaki shorts and a button up shirt, but he insisted on wearing this. I still thinks he looks so cute. He sure has a mind of his own. I love it. He is such a fun kid. He is enjoying 1st grade...

Pig Tails

Brooklyn is the first one of my kids to not have much hair.
One day I thought I would try pig tails on her. It didn't work out so well and she didn't love them, but I still thought they were cute.

Happy Birthday Alex!!!

August 11th was Alex's third Birthday. I can't believe she is already three. It goes by so fast. We had a good day. We just hung around home opened presents and then some family and friends came over that night for cake and ice cream.
Alex got her little, pink car because she has a fetish with little cars and opening and closing doors. She loves her little car. Happy Birthday Alex. I love you!

8 - 8 - 08

I can't believe my little sister had a baby!
Jory had baby Jack on 8-8-08. Isn't that a cool Birthday!
He is such a cute, good baby! These pictures are him the day he was born.
He has a lot of cute brown hair. Jory is doing good. She is bouncing back really quickly. Congratulations Jor! I love ya!

A Week at Bear Lake.

Every year my family does a week long trip to a lake. This year we went to Bear Lake. What a great time. We stayed at a camp ground. Craig, the kids and I were so lucky, because our great friend Eric let us take his ginormous fifthwheel-toyhauler trailer. What a great guy! We were nice enough to let my mom and Kane stay in the toyhauler part. Ha, ha. Actualy, it is really nice in that part. I think they had a good time in it.
Everyone was able to come except for Chet and Jory. Chet had started a new job and Jory is very pregnant. We missed them. We went to the lake, played on the beach and took the boats out every day! We would come back to camp in the evening and take the 4-wheelers out for a ride. What a great time!!! Mindie's family was there for the second half of the week, which was a lot of fun to have them there. Which, by-the-way, Brian and Mindie announced that they are having baby number two in Feb. Congratulations! We are so excited for them!
The kids had a great time playing with all of their cousins. We already miss everyone.
Thanks everyone for such a great vacation!
