Family Night

We had dinner, smores and FHE in the mountains tonight... it was lovely!

SIX Years!

We dined at Tuscany last night while reminiscing over the last six years... we are very blessed.

Happy Anniversary to US!

Lets Party!

We had a fun day celebrating Chandler's birthday! The biggest hit was the basketball hoop from Nana & Papa, he played with it all day!

Pancakes for breakfast

Shooting hoops

Chan & dad at Calle's Cafe for dinner... grilled cheese & french fries for Chan, one of his favorites!

Happy Birthday To...

...ME! I'm TWO!

Obsessed with: Basketball, Mickey & dogs (when they aren't near him)

Asks for : Hot dogs for breakfast, lunch & dinner

Wants To: do everything himself ("I do it"), be potty trained, go to Chuck E. Cheese everyday

Loves to: throw and catch balls, watch Max & Ruby, take tubbies, dance, take wagon rides, play at the park (swings for hours), jump on beds, play with his bowling set, read books, brush his teeth, eat watermelon & string cheese, give the best hugs, climb on your back, pull Kate's hair, pretend he's a dog & talk (he's a parrot, he repeats the last word you say)

Happy Birthday Chandler... We LOVE You!

Auntie!

Dear Aunt Shanda,

Thank you for coming to play with us! I cried the entire way home from the airport after dropping you off. I can't wait to see you again.

Love,

Kate

Too Short, But Sweet!

We LOVE when family comes to town! Alan, Christie & the boys were here for a family reunion... we were excited when they called to say they were coming over to visit! In addition, a tour of Steve's work & dinner at one of their favorites and now ours, Art City Trolley in Springville. Yummy!

Thank you for the wonderful evening, wish it could of lasted longer.

The Gang!

Nine Weeks to Go...

... or sixty- three days, but who's counting?

I'm still measuring three weeks early, but I think she has an competitive spirit of beating her siblings birth weight of 8lbs. 12oz & 9 lbs. 8 oz.

She just might do it!

Ninety Two Degrees...

When I got out of the shower, Kate had dressed herself for the day; sundress, Velour jacket, scarf & hat... apparently she thinks there's a cold front coming in. Or the eight degrees drop from the weekend made her a little chilly!

Silly girl!

We Hate Goodbye's!

It was FUN having Nana and Papa in Salt Lake for a month... we hated to see them go so soon!

One last dinner at the Red Iguana!

New Bedding!

I sewed my first and last king quilt top for our new bedding! My mother sewed the top and backing together and also did the binding. For an extra surprise she made pillow shams from the extra material. I just love the way it turned out!

The pillow shams

The reverse side when get get tired of the color!

The bed!

Out of the Mouth of Kate...

1. After doing her hair- "It looks perfect!"
2. When I ask her to do something- "Yes, your heinous"
3. "Mom we don't eat boogers, they are not food, they are just boogers."
4. "Do you want to watch a Woovie (movie)?"
5. "Who's birthday is it today?"
6. Who made this mess?- " I think Chandler because he makes messes and I am your big helper."
7. "Crinkle Crinkle little star, how me wonder what you are."
8. "Mom, after we have tubbie and brush our teeff and read books and wake up and have breakfast... what are we going to do?"
9. "Do we live in Lehi or Utah?"
10. "Ummm... I think I want to wear a dress today."

Happy Fourth!

We had an eventful Fourth of July by... spending the afternoon in Midway, rode the Heber Creeper Train, had dinner at the park in Lehi, twirled our own sparklers and watched the Thanksgiving Point fireworks from our bedroom window!

Happy Fourth to all!
