A Much Needed Update

A lot has happened since I last blogged. The kids started school, Isaac had his first birthday and is walking, Bruce's shop is completed (on the outside), fall came and went and now it is almost Christmas! For Thanksgiving this year my mom took the whole family on a Disney Cruise. What a blast! We ate and ate and ate. We swam, watched Disney movies, watched shows, sailed on a pirate ship to a private beach in Puerto Vallarta, went scuba diving in Cabo and ate and ate and ate! The kids loved being on the ship and loved that all their cousins were with them. I loved being able to scuba dive with Bruce. We saw so many cool fish. It was a great time.

Summer Fun

Summer is flying by so quickly! We are having such a fun time swimming and summer camps and hanging out. Steven had an awesome birthday, Hunter started Cub Scouts, Grace started piano lessons and lots and lots of swimming! Happy Summer!

Party Time

I can't believe how fast my kids are growing up! Grace had such a fun party this year. I couldn't decide how to make her cake, then luckily a friend told me she had a Hello Kitty cake pan. Grace loved how it turned out. She has so many great friends. What a lucky girl.

It's Great to be Eight!

Turning eight years old is such a big deal in our family. Hunter is making the decision to be baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in a few weeks. My good friend Karen took Hunter's picture and I think he looks so handsome! We are so proud of you Hunter!

Easter And Six Month Photos

All the kids on Easter weekend. I totally forgot to take a picture of the kids in their Sunday best...oh well. Maybe next year.

A few pictures of Isaac. I can't believe how fast time is flying! He is already six months.

I LOVE this picture! Such a funny little face he is making.

So cute, even with the helmet! Which by the way should be coming off in a few weeks! yay!!!

Science Fair

Hunter and Grace did so good in the science fair this year. Grace won 3rd place and Hunter won 1st place. There was some tough competition. Hunter and Grace had to compete against their very own cousins! Steven wanted to have his picture taken too and when he got home he made up his own science project. It was a good time and lots of work, so glad it is over!

Having Some Fun

Some of our good friends came into town for a quick visit and the kids had such a great time. We think Grace has a little crush on Bridger (the oldest). He was so sweet with her and took good care of her when they went hiking. She cried when they had to leave. We are so blessed to have such awesome friends!
