Photo Shoot

Well, the summer is over... we had a lot of fun and were super busy (I have tons of pictures to prove it) but instead of writing about all the fun things we did and figuring out which pictures to post I'll start with something easy. Yesterday I went up to Rexburg and met up with my brother and his girlfriend and they helped me take pictures of the kids. It was fun and crazy. I wasn't able to get a good one of all three of them together, so I'll have to try again. Connor wasn't too excited about it since he fell asleep on the car ride and woke up a little grumpy, so I don't have as many of him. Kaiden was loving it and started posing right away.




















Cambrie in her tutu... I love it

Happy Birthday Kaiden

On September 11th Kaiden turned five. I really can't believe how fast these five years have gone. What a privlidge it has been to have him in our family, he has brought joy to us everyday.

Kaiden, I never knew it would be possible to love you more now than the day you were born. You have become such an amazing little person...
I love that first thing in the morning you come give me a hug and tell me good morning. I love your big brown eyes. I love what a great big brother you are. I love your laugh. I love that you are such a good friend. I love how brave you are. I love your smile. I love your excitement for even the little things.
We love you Kaiden, happy birthday!

Bear Lake

Over Memorial Day weekend we went on a trip to Bear Lake. We had a blast!! Thanks to my sisters husbands family for letting us use their cabin. And to my mom for the great surprise... the kids miss you already.

We played with bubbles, squirt guns, played games, wrestled...









And four wheeled. Now all of the boys in my house think we nead one. And I might even give in because it was TONS of fun. Connor wasn't a fan of the speed, he told my sister "I want to go back where I came from" when she asked if he was having fun during their ride. But, I think he blocked that part out of his memory because he still says he wants one. Kaiden of course had no fear (which scares me to death). The rain made for lots of mud and puddles to ride in so we came home with lots of dirty laundry.





The boys attempted to take the kids out, but the boat died and they had to carry all the kids to shore. They came back soaked, at least the kids were dry.








Roasting marshmellows...



Connor just wanted to be held once he got off the fourwheeler


No one could get enough of those kissable cheeks, especially grandma.



The big cousins






And I just have to add another one of Connors cute sayings. The other day he wanted to go outside. When I told him he couldn’t because it was raining he said, “I will wear my life jacket”.

Baby Animal Day

A few weekends ago we went to baby animal day with some friends. The kids loved it... here are some pics from the day. We went on a hayride and the kids got to hold bunnies, chicks and ducklings. They also had all kinds of baby animals for them to pet. I love Connors face when he was trying to milk the "cow".

I would write more about it, but my floor is clear of toys/shoes/books/clothes at the moment so I better take advantage of it and vacume, because I know it won't last long.














I've also started to attempt to "do" Cambrie's hair.
