Bumper Cars!

Stake Lagoon Day!

This was the first rides of the day!
Thank goodness Erika went with us. It was so nice to have another set of hands.
Click on the photos and see if you can spot Erika, Hannah, Kelsie, and Jonas.
This was at the very end of the ride when it was slowing down. This was the first time that Maren lifted her head out of Josh's lap.
Esme spent lots of time snoozing in the stoller. This time she fell asleep holding onto her hat.
Waiting for our turn to go on a ride! Jonas lost his first front tooth today. It was a great day for him!
Maren rode the carousel about five times!
Rosy Cheeks! It was very warm outside.

Maren rang the bell the whole time.

Esme was so happy at Lagoon. I thought I was going to have to take her home early and then go back to pick everyone up. But she loved it outside, all the excitement!
Oh, the many rides!

Esme at the end of the day, the last ride Maren and Jonas went on! Sound asleep!

The many faces of Esme and Maren!

How can I describe how excited we are that Kels is back home? Our family is complete again. It is so nice to have everyone back under the same roof every night. That is when the kids are not staying the night with Sara or Morgan.
She seems so big compared to Esme!
What Expression!






Big Hugs!

It is so difficult to get photos of Maren, she just does not hold still or look at the camera. I am so glad that we got these!

Doings from the past week!

So for Kelsie's first FHE back home, we decided to go up into the canyon to get out of the heat. We were rewarded. We found a nice campsite with a beautiful waterfall and lots of hiking and climbing. We had a yummy meal and watched everyone climb many obstacles. Maren loved sliding down this hill they are standing on in her brand new pink shorts. Thank the heavens for oxi clean.
Morgan, Andrew, Leah, and Erika came along!
The results of Jonas' first boxing match!
With the bricks of our fire place!
Kels and Leah at Marens party!
What is it about finding any sort of box and pushing kids around in it!
Esme was very excited about her toy box.
And swing!
So, Sara and Hannah went the other day and got pedicures. I thought it was so funny that the bottom of Hannah's feet were so filthy! But look at the beautiful nails. Sara said she had a man pedicure.
Lovely!
