This Baptism one hasn't been released yet but I think it turned out really cute.
This is one that my sister and I designed while we were up at Bear Lake.
This is one that we had a lady specifically ask us to design. Here horse is involved in the horse races.
This is a kit that I designed after Kaitlin's "Fashion" party for her pictures.
We all had a blast riding the 4wheelers on the trails up around the cabin. There were several that we could go on and explore our beautiful surroundings. Tyler likes to ride on every ones tails so he always ended up coming back with a filthy face.
One morning Lori, I and the kids all got up at 5:30 and headed up the trails to a hill so that we could watch the sunrise. It was early, but it was definately worth it.
Our good friends the Felix's live up in Hyde Park which is just next to Logan, came up on Monday to have dinner and FHE with us. It was so nice to visit with them and see their cute family again.
The boys were out on the deck playing guitars and just chatting when down runs this chipmunk off the side of the cabin, right next to where they were sitting. It see's them and drops on it's back and plays dead. It stayed there with it's legs up in the air and eyes wide open for about 3 minutes, long enough for everyone to see it. Then after everyone quit looking at it, it rolled over and ran off. It was so funny!
We warned all the kids when we went to the cabin that there would be lots of pictures taken. There was to be no covering of faces or hiding. Trav had a hard time with this he doesn't like getting his picture taken. You'd think all of our kids would be natural models with all of the pictures we take of them.
Have you met Indiana Jones Jr. (or Indie) for short? This is who Tyler got after his snake blaze died. What is he you might ask? A Ball Python. Yep, one of those. He really is quite a neat snake. He will get big if we make his environment bigger. This happens to be pictures of dinner time. Indie eats every two weeks. His diet consists of baby mice called pinkies or fuzzies, baby rats.
With moving and all we have had quite a mess around here. Every room has at least 1 if not 2 garbage cans in them. Bella came out of my craft room the other day adorned in the garbage can lid. It was very cute.
Kaitlin had her last school program for the year at South Elementary. It was all about UTAH. There were Indians, and mountain men, Spaniards, and pioneers. Kaitlin was a pioneer, thanks to Grandma Marchant for making her a bonnet. They all did a great job and sang a lot of fun songs. I love the Utah song, I think it's my favorite. I can't believe that school is out tomorrow.
Derick has been wanting to get some more driving hours and drive down to St George. We decided that this would be a good day to head down there because Derick needed new church clothes and both Tyler and Kaitlin needed shoes. We stopped at this new burger joint, SMASH BURGER, and have dinner. They had really good burgers.
We had a fun time together and were even able to see Uncle "Bubby" Doug, at the bank.
This is one of my all time favorite pictures of Derick. We had planned on having his pictures taken with overalls on but as we, my Mom and I were wandering through Sears we found the fishing gear to add to the picture. Isn't he adorable?
Kaitlin was so brave when she had to get her tonsils out. She was pretty proud of her cap & gown and when they willed her off she held up her hands and pretended that she was on a roller coaster. She sure enjoyed the grape popsicle that she got afterwords. She did great!
We had such a fun road trip with the girls up north. We started off with a sleepover at my Parents in Leamington. Then the next morning we stopped at the Young Living Farm the girls paddled on the paddle boats, where Olympia lost her socks and had to go fishing for them. Had a great time exploring IKEA and then went to Joe’s Crab shack for lunch. We ended the day at the mall where the girls did a little window shopping. FUN, FUN
This year in Tyler's reading class they had to do a book report. They could either make a cake or make a board game that went along with their book. Tyler chose to make a cake. He did such and awesome job making the Swiss Family Robinson tree.
When Kaitlin was three months old we decided that it was time for her to go to sleep on her own. So we put her in her crib, she fussed a little and then that was it. I went in to check on her and she had found her thumb. From then on she slept through the night like and angel. I took this picture of her one day when she had fallen asleep standing and sucking her thumb.
I always loved when Kaitlin wore this slip. This was at Brett & Andrea’s wedding reception and she was tired of her dress so we took it off and she danced around on the dance floor in her slip. It’s a good thing she was only two.
Than goodness my kids liked posing for all of my pictures. So Cute!!!!
