One of my favorites

This has to be one of my favorites photos lately. Every time I look at it I smile or laugh a little. We went to a 3-D movie a while back and since then Sydney can't see me with my sunglasses on not search the house over for "her glasses". She's been wearing them everywhere. Good times!

Happy Fathers Day

I don't need to say much more than Scott is the best. Aubree and Sydney think the world of him. They love him more than chocolate milk at bedtime. He is such a good dad and cares so much for all of us. A single day doesn't go by that I don't have a moment where I think, I am so glad I married him. He's an incredible, father, husband, provider, spiritual leader along with many other things. I'm glad we have a day to honor him.

Aubree made Scott this special tie at our Primary Activity. Scott wore it with pride to church on Father's Day.

I also have an incredible Dad who has always set an example for me. He's a wonderful Grandpa too and my girls adore him. Happy Father's Day Dad!

This picture was taken just a few weeks ago as my dad was irrigating their backyard.

Annual Coalville Trip

In June we joined Ann and Cody for a day at Camperworld in Coalville. Growing up we spent many summer days and nights swimming, camping and enjoying life at this campground. I want my girls to have fond memories from some of the same places I enjoyed as a child. Needless to say this is not Scott's favorite thing...but because he loves me he participates.

We actually didn't spend the night and Scott was golfing all morning so this was ideal for him. The girls loved it.

After spending a few hours in the pool Aubree got brave enough to trust her life jacket. She realized she could swim all over the pool, even in the deep parts. It was fun to play with her and watch her confidence grow.

We built a fire and spent a little time around the campfire. Here are a few photos just hanging out.

It wouldn't be a true camping experience if everyone looked nice and cleaned up.

I added this one because I loved the lighting.

We were able to watch them feed the fish in the little pond in the campground. If you look close you can see the fish jumping to catch the fish.

Here are the kids around the pond. I'm sure the people fishing weren't appreciating all the noise we were making but it's not the fish were going to eat much after just being fed anyway. Syd and Aub were "shaking their booties" here.

It turned out to be a fun day.

Best Friends

One of my favorites moments of almost every day is when my girls are playing together nicely. I just love to listen to them "pretend". I also learn a lot about myself as I listen to them because usually one of them is the mom (acting just like me) and one of them is the "sweetie" (one of them).I am so glad they have each other. They keep each other busy with all their play. They have their spats too but I don't know siblings that don't have those. I really feel blessed to have them so close together and such good friends. They make me smile every day.
