More August!


A few weeks ago we went camping with our friends the Masses. I am sad to say that my batteries ran out after the first couple of minutes, but here are a few pictures.


A ranger lady came to show us her cool snake. Notice Josh's hand- Moira was trying to grab and hold the snake.


All the kids thought it was totally cool.


The Masses!


My cute little family! The girls did amazing that night. We had so much fun we are looking forward to going again! The next day we went hiking. Josh chose the most 'rugged' trails. We saw some BEAUTIFUL waterfalls, crazy ravines, and got to climb down some cool ladders. It was funny to see people's faces when they saw we both had kids on our backs. :)


August was the month of birthdays for us. Here is Mary's birthday celebration!


Madeline and Moira wearing their BYU and Purdue gear. Notice Madeline's obsession with headbands. :)


My cute not-so-much-a BABY anymore!!


We got to watch Madeline's friend a couple of weeks ago for awhile. They always have so much fun together. It makes me happy that Madeline has such a good friend. Here they both are with their goofy smiles!


Oh, cute!!


Just had to include this one!


Friends! The following pictures show the good life of a three year old little girl!


Dancing!


Babies!


Movies with snacks! Oh, so fun!


A couple of weeks ago we had some family come into town. We always go to the Purdue fountains. Here is poor Moira too hot and tired to be having any fun!


Cousins!! Madeline and Jayden!


Poor Morgan couldn't play in the fountains! We are so excited these guys just moved to Chicago!


Monique had to get some school clothes shopping done so we stopped by the mall. Everybody was happy to check out the shoes. Here is Jayden, he is the one that started the whole shoe frenzy.


Poor JC Penneys!


Sweet Monique!


Moira and Tyler


Madeline and the girls!


A couple of MONTHS ago (see, we are still catching up!) Madeline went to the dentist. She did an incredible job. She was nervous, but still let them do everything they needed to. In the end she got a Dora sticker and toothbrush. She was thrilled!


Poor girl!


Marker on the head, hmmm.


I remember growing up being warned not to mess with my dad. When we punched him, he punched us back. We wrestled him, he'd wrestle right back! No mercy!! Well... check out Madeline. You spray Dad with a spray bottle? You better be prepared to be DRENCHED, face shots and all...


My sweet, sweet mismatching little girls dancing together!!!


My birthday!! Mmmm!!


Josh made our dinner really special...


Yikes!


Happy Birthday to me! Woot for new clothes!


Moira looks like she's casting a spell!


This was my dress when I was little... awwww!! I LOVE IT!!

Funny Movie


Just wanted to share a cute funny movie. I love my kids! :)

Last Christmas, Chicago Trip!

So, last year I meant to post these pictures, but never got around to it. I was just looking through them and loved them too much not to post! :)

This is how Madeline used to cope when she was tired- smashing things on her eye. She happened to have cheese crackers on this trip! :) We were driving to Chicago to go to the temple and to meet the family. They were flying in to stay one night downtown with us!


We were very excited to see their smiling faces. Isn't that a cute picture of Madeline?


Lots of love! Weird Kali! We weren't even together for 24 hours, I think it was maybe 12... we just ate candy, walked around Chicago a little bit, talked and ate Chicago pizza!!


Cutest grandma EVER!!!!!!


Sweetest Grandpa!! Aww!!


The "Lou" or something! I don't remember, but we all LOVED it!! It was definitely the highlight of everybody's trip!


Yum! Woot for my pizza!


Madeline climbed into the crib with Moira! Awwww!! Moira is a lot cuter now than she used to be, huh? :) Can I say that?

August Pictures


Moira on her first birthday!


Eating her birthday cake!


My friend had a sprinkler party that day and gave Moira an ice cream cone with a candle in it for her birthday! I'm so lucky I have such wonderful friends! :)


Here's a pretty headband from our friend that makes them. Here is her blog address is you want to check them out: http://betweenlinnetandlinen.blogspot.com/


Madeline saying, "CHEESE!"


Poor Moira!! All of her shirts are wet lately. She has just gotten her top two molars and her bottom two are almost through!


Eating tomatoes from the garden... yuck!!


Awhile back we had a homemade rootbeer party with some friends! It was pretty exciting! It was really hard to find dry ice here... hmm... who knew you just couldn't pick it up from the grocery store?! The differences between Indiana and Utah! :)


Moira and Madeline thought it was pretty cool!


Madeline LOVED the excuse to party with friends!


Just a CUTE picture of Mary and Madeline!


Sweet, huh?!?
