 Pictures from June 2011

Playing with Lolly, our cute little black bunny!

 She loves to hop onto my laptop, so I am constantly moving her off :)

 Pouty Alyssa  (pretty good pout, right?!)

 adding Lolly into the mix  (hard to see her but she's on my shoulder)

 I love this little girl's personality!  She is constantly cracking us up!

 karate moves!

 silly turtle

 of course, pictures of outside  (I love nature!)

 This kitty likes our brick wall

 a quail-I think she looks pregnant

 a robin

 We sat on the back patio watching all the birds.  There were quail, robins, magpies and a few others (like this little guy) that were flying around.  It was nice  

I have the silliest little girls!  <3

...and begin the karate moves!  lol

After visiting my Grams one day I had to stop at my aunt Teresa's house and take a few shots of these flowers!

sleeping baby...love him

6-5-12

great afternoon for roasting marshmallows with my sister and my nephews

Hi Brayden!

the boys made a target on the wall to throw rocks at

all for one...

tree swing time

Luke's turn!

running like the wind

And baby Nate woke up

this kid is always full of smiles!

My goon bunny!

taking a walk around the neighborhood

Karah stopped to help Isabelle with her streamers

all done with my yogurt mom!  (yes, she was eating a yogurt on a walk!  lol)

the moon

My girls love dandelions (beautiful yellow flowers!)

Letting Lolly just around a little outside

loves!

I'm so glad we found a pet (that the girls could cuddle with and take care of) that Alyssa is not allergic to!

Alyssa with her treasures.  We went to the part to eat lunch and play with my good old friend Amanda and her little kiddos.  It was fun!

Notice Alyssa licking and eating (SOMEONE ELSE'S) slurpee lid!  Ewe!  So gross!

baby feet are so sweet!

the girls kept bringing me things that they wanted me to take pictures of

We took Lolly to my dad's house to visit  (6-12-11)

Yes, our bunny has a harness and a leash!  She doesn't really go where you want her to go, it's more to keep her from going where you don't want her to go.  If you actually want to go on a walk, you have to pick her up and carry her.  :)

One of my favorite pictures...

Lys is a cutie

Hi Boo!

yum, water outside always tastes better!

I love these flowers!

My dad with Boo on the swing

Karah started taking pictures now...

I loved hearing the direction Karah was giving to Alyssa for each shot she wanted to capture.  It was cute!

So spunky!

Don't mess with me mister!

What do we have here?!  6-13-11

Karah's second lost tooth!  She actually LOST her first tooth...she was so sad!  But she pulled this one out and was so excited to put it under her pillow! 

Last week at the park, Amanda taught us an awesome trick!  If you break sticks that have fallen off certain trees, there is a star in the middle.  It's amazing!  It's a fun thing for us to do now

Alyssa sure makes a cute construction worker with a crazy hair day at school!

My mom, my sister Ashlee and I at my cousin Angie's wedding.  We had no idea how but we all showed up in black and white dresses!  Great minds think alike :)

The Salt Lake Temple is so pretty!  It's like a castle but better!

My Aunt Reva and Uncle Jerry (really my great aunt because she's my Grams' sister but she's my mom's aunt so we call her aunt, not confusing at all really!)

Angie and Sean (I always think his name is Jacob and then get confused because that doesn't sound right...it's part of his last name!)

6-18-11

Mom asked me to take a few pictures of her and Howie

I think these flowers are so cool!

This shows you how long ago this post should have been posted!  There were still 277 days until City Creek was going to be open and now as I am writing this it's been open for over a month!  Slacker!  lol

pretty water features at the new mall

My new haircut...  

 a sun dog

something that makes me laugh!

 I asked Alyssa to get her panties on and her PJs on and this is what she came up with!

"Is this how it goes Mom?"

Karah needs to get in on some of the crazy action! lol

 Nate's first time eating solids

 The ways that Alyssa falls asleep amaze me!  Here she is reading a book and had a stack of two more to read on her pillow.

 I <3 the sky, clouds and sunset!

 One day at work a bird ran into the window, scared the crap out of me (it was a loud thud) then flew away leaving feathers stuck to the window.  Poor guy!

 I couldn't find Alyssa and went looking for her.  She was outside helping by digging up weeks in the grass.  Good helper! I'm so lucky that I have two good helpers  :)

I am determined to not let myself get over a year behind on this blog.  On to July!  Yay!
