Ok, so I have a lot of catching up to do. I'll apologize now for boring you to tears but I had to start where I left off...which was a loooong time ago. This is what we've been up to over the past few months...
In April:
A trip to the Dinosaur Museum at Thanksgiving Point. David doing his impersonation of a shark.
Easter baskets for the kids. All their current favorite things: For David- Spider Man stuff, Cheetos, gum like Mommy's, Propel, and Jerky among other things. And for Emily- Animal Crackers, a new book, bunny ears, and croutons (yeah, its strange, but she loves them).
One of the only pics that turned out from Easter. The rest were blurry. Daddy and Emily in their Easter get-up. It was a bit windy.Then in June:
Jason took David to the Air show at Hill Airforce Base. David thought the planes were "super cool"!! (And yes, he wore his cowboy hat! Jason said he got quite a lot of attention from the ladies! He loves that darn hat. We've started collecting things for his "cowboy" room for when we move into a house- if we could ever find one.)
David also had his first trip to the gun range with Dad. No- I don't completely think this is normal but he's got his Dad's blood in him because he absolutely loved it.
He felt pretty cool to go shooting with Dad.
Emily's new past time.
She was entertained for hours with these things!
Hey- candy comes in wrappers! How was she supposed to know?!
One Friday afternoon David and I were making cookies and it started to poor. I thought- oh what the heck lets be spontaneous and go play in it! So we danced in the rain! It was awesome. I know it sounds nerdy but I'll always remember it. The rain was warm and it smelled so good! It made a special memory.
David was being such a cute brother one day when he decided to set up a little picnic on the Dining room floor for he and Emily. They had a blast!
I had to wash Emily's "keek" (blanket) and I thought I was sneaky enough that she didn't notice until I found her in the laundry room watching it spin around and around.
She was not a happy camper!
Emily has kind of become the queen of crusty faces lately- but she does have the cutest little legs I've ever seen!
Jason and I thought it would be fun to take David to the Lehi Rodeo so he could see a real-life cowboy! He thought it was pretty cool. Emily, however, was not terribly entertained so we ended up having to leave early!On to July:
My sweet little firecracker!
Waiting for the parade to start on the Fourth of July.
What's funny is that I told him to smile and this is what I got!
So excited to be eating Watermelon!
The other night we didn't have any clean pajamas for Emily so we had to put some of David's old ones on her. She thought she was hot stuff! She pranced around the house like she owned them! This is the face I get now when I tell her to say cheese!
...And lastly, we went up the canyon last weekend with some friends for dinner. Here's Emily with Daddy. He's the apple of her eye these days!
Dad and David cooking Brats on the fire.
The best things come to those who wait...
...100% satisfaction!!
Dirty, sticky Emily.
Me and my favorite guy...
...And me and my favorite kiddos!
I had to end with this picture. It's not a true S'more if you don't end up with marshmallow all over your face!
