Trip to the Zoo with Grandma

Tuckered out

 

I found these cute girls in bed with Grandma laughing and chatting, precious!

Sam's baptism!  Didn't we just have Summer and Sam blessed?! 

I love this picture!

We sure LOVE you!  You are so beautiful inside and out!  Things we love about you- playing the piano on Sunday mornings, your love of music, how you are so quick to smile even when you're mad, you are a GREAT help to mom, you are a good example, and you are so sweet! 

 

I think she's scared of the candles?

Nope, just wanted cake

The kids always fight over who gets to sit by daddy.  Zoey usually wins!

My cute Syd

Atlie and Syd waiting for the eclipse.  My family came over to watch the eclipse.  I got the special glasses for everyone

Special eclipse glasses

My dad brought his telescope- COOL!

Caught Zoey behind the couch with my lip gloss!  :) 

Summer's gymnastics meet

Trip to the mountains

Zack, buddy, you need a haircut. 

Zack went to Hope of America.  I couldn't go because of my blood pressure.  Story of my life the last 6 months.   

I don't know how I survived this year in school. I was sick EVERY SINGLE day! I threw up in the car on the way to work every day without exception. I felt like a zombie. I should've been on bed rest and listened to my Dr,  I should've taken it easy. Instead I thought I could just watch my blood pressure myself. Not the best decision I could have made. I was taking a risk with my life and my baby's life. Thank goodness I had AWESOME ladies that took care of me at work and gave me TONS of support, above and beyond!   Kim and Stephanie, you are amazing and my heroes! 
 

July 2011

I haven't really blogged since June of last year.  There is a good reason for that, but now I want to catch up on this journal type of our lives.  I have more than 300 pictures to upload and lots to say.

The 4th of July celebrations-

We went to my friend Megan's house to have a BBQ and do some fireworks.  The kids had fun.  Sydney was sick so she missed out.  The first thing I did was lock my keys in the car with the baby's food and diaper bag...SO me! 

Zoey doesn't really drink, she just liked banging the glass

These fired up real fast

Every year we go to the balloon festival in Provo.  We get up SUPER early but it's worth it.  This time however all the balloons came down 5 minutes after we got there due to the crazy wind.  At least the kids got to see some blown up.

I love this baby

Zack and Darth

Zoey fell asleep so fast in the car.

Grandma came to visit and we were so happy to see her!

This is now Grandma's room. 

Grandma always brings crafts

Zoey doing her favorite thing- emptying drawers

Mountain time

Tom is so cute with his mom!!!

We love to hug Grandma!

Holy Marshmallows!

Yeah, too big for smores

Grandma fixed Zoey's favorite book!
















We all had pedicures! 
















I'm glad we had some fun times, during a very hard time.
