Family pictures were a little tricky with 3 little girls.Image

Image
Image The girls were excited to play with the water hippo (it's a little cold outside to be posting this.)These are very typical poses :)Image
Image Mary was happy to just play with her toes.
Image These are a couple of baby humming birds in our tree. They were so tiny and on a low branch that we could watch them easily.
ImageWe took a family walk around the temple. The girls say it is so 'bootiful' and they love the flowers.
Image Cute new dresses!
ImageWatching fireworks after the Real game.

Image Waterskiing at Willard Bay. I could still get up after 2 years of not skiing. The water was great. Kera and Leslie got to drive the boat and loved to swim.
Image Kera liked to swim around the boat.

JULY

Leslie was happy to pose for her birthday invitation. What a cute and sweet little gal!Image We had the party at the park by our home. Surprisingly, we had the entire place to ourselves. And it was such a beautiful day!
Image I know I look excited, but seeing my Leslie so excited about getting the princess and the frog movie made my day.

Mary's game

I was just looking at some of the pictures from last year and found this little clip. Mary has grown up so fast. She's walking around now and working on getting her 4th tooth. :)

I know I have a lot of stuff to share in order to get caught up, hopefully I can just make the time to do so.

JUNE

June 2-A lovely way to start off the month of my anniversary, at one of my cousin's daughter's wedding. It was a beautiful day. I really could not stop smiling. It was like seeing one of my girls getting married. She looked so beautiful and happy. I loved getting to attend everything on her special day.ImageImageOne of my best friends, Sarah, was such a life saver taking my two older girls so I could attend the luncheon in Orem. I love how much our little families mirror each other :)ImageJune 7 through 12-Bryan was in Vegas for work. Mary started rolling lots :)

June 19-We attended the venture outdoors festival. We started with a diaper blowout, then rushed to catch up on the volksmarch. It was a pretty good hike for all of us. The kids loved playing at the festival after the hike. They got prizes, made a pet rock, got mini golf clubs, and loved the huge blown up slide. I helped Leslie up and slid down with her :) Fun stuff!!! Mary was a bit bored waiting tho.ImageImageImageImageJune 20-Father's Day. The girls were excited to give Bryan little craft books they had made for him.

June 23-Kera loved painting a watermelon magnet at the gateway museum. She LOVES to paint!!!

June 24-Kera and Leslie went to their cousin Sarah's water birthday party. Fun slide. Leslie stuck with the wading pool instead of the slide.ImageJUNE 26-6 Year Anniversary!!! Bryan took me for a motorcycle ride up Emigration canyon. We tried to take some pictures, but helmet hair is not very flattering. One shot here Bryan lost his balance and was out of the shot while I was laughing, then we got one. Poppies always remind me of the Wizard of Oz. Later we had dinner at the California Pizza Kitchen with Mary. Yummy! We really enjoyed the movie, The Young Victoria to finish off our day. I love Bryan so much, he is perfect for me, and I am so glad I get to be with him for eternity :)ImageImageJune 30-Mary is 6 months and sitting up with help :) She's such a happy girl.Image

MAY

May was awhile ago, but there were still some note worthies ;)

May 5-Leslie was still 2 and potty trained in 2 days with only 5 or 6 minor clothing accidents. She did great!!! We also went to a field and flew the kite as a family-oops no potties.Image
May 11-Our new van :) Lovin' it!

May 16-I had to speak in church. I was so nervous. The topic was President Monson's talk 'Have I served anyone today' It went well and hopefully I am off the hook for awhile.

May 20-Recipe group started. I love it! It's my once a month girls night out :) I made garbonzo bean soup :)

May 31-Memorial Day was a very bitter sweet day/way too emotional! We were on our way to the Woods Cross flag ceremony when I learned that my Aunt Mary had passed away. I can't express how much it hurt inside. I really wish she could have met my baby Mary. I loved how she would always give me hugs when she saw me at family parties or the Weber State bookstore. I love you Aunt Mary.

We went to IHOP for a yummy breakfast. Then to the Ogden cemetery. We decided to visit the Ogden temple grounds with the girls. They really liked the flowers and fountains. Image
Then we visited Dave's horse clinic. There were a dozen or so baby horses :)ImageImageImage
We ate a pizza lunch at Aunt Bessie's then planted her garden. It was fun to do and felt great doing it! My mother in law broke her elbow :( but we still had a barbecue at their home. I went on a motorcycle ride with Bryan. Then we played a card game with his family. What a day!
