First Day of Kindergarten

It seems just like yesterday that Makayla entered our family. It has flown for her to go from this ...
To this ... And headed to school.

She has been sooo excited for school. I love love love her teacher and I
am excited to see how she grows and develops this year. She is too grown up and too cute :o)

There was no tears (her or me I am so proud to say) and she likes school. Even though someone was mean to her ...


Makayla's Totally Awesome Outfit!




I Love it when she gets dressed in fun clothes, all the bracelets she owns and slippers on a hot day ...

My Little Monkey

Here are a few of the places I found Micah on this day. Also a few places I found him but did not get a picture are: Sitting on the arm of our couch, sitting on the table in the corner of our front room where a lamp sits and on the table that sits under our TV. Such a trouble maker ...
He found a bag of Doritos on the table and needed them I guess!




This is a shelving unit in Makayla's closet, he was pulling hats out and handing them to Makayla.

Our Ward Campout

I just found these pictures and realized I forgot to share them. The week before we went to Moon Lake we went on our ward camp out. We thought we were going to be so smart by putting an air mattress and sleeping bags in the back of our Durango and sleeping in there. We decided it was going to be better than setting up our tent for one night. Well what we didn't realize was how HOT it was going to be that night. Makayla fell asleep just fine, Micah fell asleep then woke up screaming and Clint wasn't able to fall asleep so at about 11:45 pm we rolled up all the stuff in the air mattress put the car seats back in and headed home! Well Makayla was bummed because she was excited for a camp out so Clint set up our small tent in the yard and we all slept out there. It was lots of fun and the kids loved it. We may just have to do it again soon :o)





Moon Lake 2010

We had a great time on our trip to Moon Lake this year. The weather was wonderful, we had great food and had lots of fun with the Monson family. We went on lots of walks and hikes and fished and played on the beach. Here are some fun pictures from our camping trip.



On our first hike












Micah missed his morning nap and as we
were making dinner he crashed sitting up!


Playing on the Beach

Out on a boat ride



Micah fell asleep in Pawkers arms while riding in the boat

In the tent trailer where the kids slept.

Chane and Holly let us borrow their tent trailer. It was super nice of them and very nice for us while we were camping.





We love Moon Lake! And after many many years of having strange weather and weird experiences it was nice to have a fairly uneventful trip :o)

Funny

Here are some fun things we have been hearing around our house lately ...

Me and Clint: Makayla do you want to practice writing your last name?
Makayla: Um, Ok but only after lunch.

Ding Dong Ding Dong Ding Dong Ding Dong (constant as Micah rings the doorbell on Makayla's doll house)
Makayla: ( getting annoyed by the noise) Micah there is nobody home!

Our kids are super funny and cute! BTW Micah is a pretty efficient walker these days and I am sure will start running any day now ...
