Daxton and Gehrig's First Day of School

Yippee for the 1st day of School!!!!!

Daxton is in 3rd Grade this year.
He is so happy to finally be back at school to play sports at recess.
The real important things at school!:) I am not sure if they get any more handsome that this.

Gehrig is in 1st Grade this year.
Look at that Devilish smile. He is always up to something.
Oh how I love this kid.

Lily of course had to pose just like the boys.
She is going to be so excited for the day that she gets to go to school.

Our Little Lily is 3!!!!

For as long as I can remember Lily has been talking about her Princess party. She informed us that Daddy was the King, Mommy was the Queen, Gehr- Gehr was the Knight and Daxton was a Dragon. It has been so much fun to have her tell you all about this party she was going to have. And she insisted that she have a Castle Cake.
So here it is. I had so much fun making this cake.

I made here a shirt and Ryan bought her this tutu.

She was so excited that her day was finally here with presents and all.

She loved having all the attention on her.

Giving Daddy loves for the gifts he bought her.

Yummy Eatin' time

I made Princess Fruit Kabobs

Great food with great company.

This is baby Avery. I know she might be the cutest thing around.
She melts my heart every time I see her.

Playing with her new cash register. Just like her mom.

Outfit #2.
This little lady loves to change her clothes.
Everyday she changes into at least 5 different outfits.

Singing the Happy Birthday Song.
She was so funny.
She sang the whole song. And was loving every minute of it.

Happy Birthday Lily.
We love you so much.

YIPPEE BEAR LAKE!!!!

And were off to Bear Lake. Right after the Suns Camp we headed out to our favorite place in the world. Sadly Ryan's parents were not there this year with us. They are still serving a mission in Samoa. We truly did miss them. I realized how much work it really takes to run the Lake House. Thank you Gammy and Papa for letting us go to the House.

We invited my whole family to join us but my parents and my sister Stacey's daughters were the only ones that could make it. They missed out.

We stopped at Moqui Cave to check it out. It has been years since I have been there.

Paris City 4th of July Parade.
All I can say is WOW! SMALL TOWN PARADES are fun!!

I bought this grill at Target. I thought it would be fun to roast weenies and make smores.
The kids loved it.

Setting up the Ping-pong table.

Yummy SMORES!!

The kids wanted to fly a kite. But there was not wind.

This is Ryan running around in circles to try to get the kite to fly.
He always make us laugh!!

Garden City Park

Fireworks.
We missed the ones out in Montpelier. So we decided to have our own.
Ryan did a great job with what we had.

Beach Day at the Lake
We found the perfect spot. tons of beach and you could walk out about 100 yards and it still was at your knees.

Badminton.
Really hard when the wind it blowing.

Exploring with Grandpa

Sydney caught this dragon fly.

Gehrig and Sydney were so funny.

Pickiville Playhouse
This place is great. We go every year.
It has been open for 30 years. The put on melodrama plays.
We laugh so hard every time we go.

Swimming at the Club house pool and lunch on the deck.

These two were so funny. They had just gotten back from Grandpa Chapman taking them horse back riding. They had both decided that Grandpa needed to buy them a horse and they were going to build a barn for the horse. They sat outside for forever talking about how they could make this happen. These are their seashells that they collected at the beach. They were counting them out to make sure that they each got the same amount.

The best spot in the house

Game time in the basement!!!
It is fabulous down there. SOOO COLD!!

Thank you Mom and Dad for coming with us.
We love you all so much. We would of been very lonely without you guys there.

We drove down to Utah to celebrate my Grandpa Scheel's 80th Birthday.
Back in the day he was in a band. He played the drums.

Fun family games with Aunt Debbie.
It was so good to see all the family from Utah.
