An Afternoon with Our Cousins

On Saturday, Ashley and the boys spent the afternoon at Aunt Claire's pool with Karen, Jonathan, Leanne and baby Josh. It was so much fun!It was really fun to see Jonathan as a dad

Baby Josh has Leanne's amazing blue eyes. He was so cute.

Playing in Provo Canyon

Daniel, Nate and Ashley have been enjoying playing in Provo Canyon this summer. One of the kids favorite places is at the bast of Bridal Veil falls.

It's been so hot this summer that the water wasn't even freezing cold! It's been the hottest summer in Utah EVER.

Daniel's been having fun climbing up the rocks at the base of the waterfall

Nate wasn't so sure about walking through the water.

Daniel has been obsessed with wearing his overalls this summer. Ashley can hardly get him to take them off. He even sleeps in them!

Photography

On Sunday, Daniel and I went to take some artist pictures of some beautiful wildflowers sprouting up along the Provo River Trail.

Baby Jill

On Saturday, Mom, Dad and I went to visit Alyson and her new baby Jill. She was SO petite and adorable. Just a little doll.

Haircuts

On Monday, I took the boys to both get haircuts. It was actually Nathan's 1st haircut. Yes, he finally had enough hair, although most of it made up a mullet which thankfully, is now gone. He looks more grown up now with his tailored haircut. He is BIG into tractors these days and our neighbor Jonny outgrew this one and gave it to Nate.

Daniel still has a passion for cell phone. Here is a new Lightening McQueen one he got from Walmart that he is very excited about.

Feeding Our Ducks

Every morning after we finish exercising we visit a pond near University Ave. where we feed "our ducks". We've all become very attached to each other!

Daniel and Nate just LOVE feeding the ducks. They come right up to them and eat out of their hands! The kids won't let us miss a morning! (So, they are keeping me motivated to exercise).

One of the ducks at the pond had babies this week! They are so cute and fuzzy!

Cousin Brooke's 3rd Birthday Party

On Saturday we all got together at Linda's house to celebrate Brooke's 3rd Birthday. Although, Saturday was actually Linda's 37th birthday as well...

Dave with most of his brothers and dad

Cousin Katie and her family were visiting from California. Nathan really had a great time with her. She entertained him the whole party.

Bob and Teresa chatting with Dave, Brad and Mom. It's been nice to have them in town.

Nate just loved the baby swing. He wasn't going to have anything to do with the waterslide.

Although, the rest of the kids LOVED it. Here's the birthday girl with Lauren.

Daniel was doing a little jig to show how excited he was about the waterslide.
