Summer 2013

This summer went by so fast! I guess I'd better put some pics up to remember a little bit of it. Except for our AWESOME trip to Utah in July, it was mostly uneventful and HOT. We rarely left the house unless it was to go swimming! Even though it stinks having to wake up so early again, I'm mostly glad to be back on a schedule now that the kids are back in school. And of course, with the start of school comes the hope of some cooler weather, which is the biggest thing I'm looking forward to right now!

Nature Girl with her favorite tree frog that stuck around our house for quite awhile. She could even carry it around on her shoulder!

 Makayla finally started losing some teeth!

 I love this picture. It's the last day of school, and Makayla was sooo sad and miserable all day because she didn't want school to be over. Broke my heart.

 How in the heck is my baby girl 3 years old??! I don't think I can stand her getting any older.

 Ella's Minnie Mouse party

 The girls hanging out with their cousins, Logan and Carson.

 Our trip to Utah! This is our adults-only date night.

 The grandkids with their favorite Aunt Stacy (Brian's youngest sister)

 Temple night at the Jordan River temple!

 Of course we went to the beach a few times. This is a jelly fish we found. It's in a plastic sand toy with water and a seashell. It was kinda small, but we buried it in the sand anyway.

 Just our family

 Going to our very tiny local zoo with the boy cousins.

 Playing at the zoo playground.

 Kylee, having a photo shoot with her favorite stuffed animals. 

 Taking the kids to the Orlando temple for a primary activity.

 Having a dress-up show. A favorite activity around here.

 First day of school!!

This year I'm doing a preschool co-op with some ladies from church. This is Ella's first day - she loves it!!

Such a fun summer!!!! We loving being so close. Now it's just time for you to get to Orlando so we can swap babysitting weekends.
Poor Makayla so sad, missing her Miss Skipper! Can't wait for her to turn 7.
You should have posted more shots of those cupcakes, I didn't see a shout out to Brian for doing the bows. He made those cupcakes awesome!!! :)
Love Kylee with her animals. She'll always love that monkey!
