Woolery Ways

Silas and I recently upgraded our phones to the new iPhone 4's!!  We are so excited!!  I cannot believe the quality of the pictures and the fact that I can take video is so great!!  Silas has had the original iPhone for the past 4 years or so and he finally upgraded this time!  I think we are happy with this purchase!! :)

So I've been taking video of my kids like crazy so here are a couple... oh, and I apologize for the silliness of my voice...it's kind of funny hearing how you talk to your kids!!

(This is my first time getting video to upload...so I don't know why it's so small.  Also, on the second one with Drew watch close at the very beginning..lol!!)

Reagan Michelle was given her name and a blessing by her daddy on Sunday, August 1, 2010.  It was a beautiful blessing.  As her parents we felt the Spirit, that day, of the love our Heavenly Father has for us and what a special blessing this little girl is in our lives! It was a wonderful weekend filled with family and friends!  We feel so blessed to have such a sweet baby girl, a daughter, in our home!  We are thankful to our Heavenly Father for giving her to us!  We are thankful to our family and friends who show us they care about  our little family by loving and supporting us at these special times.  Some of our family that were able to be there were Great Grandma "Gongy", Grandma and Papa Ehat, Grandma Cakey and Grandpa Woolery, Aunts, Uncles, and cousins, and of course friends!

Also, to see some beautiful pictures of Reagan's dress and her room visit my sister's photography website!

Look at her sweet little shoes!!! My friend Emilie crocheted them for her!!

Granny (aka: Gongy, Grandma) and McKenna....beauties!!

Our little family!

Proud Momma!

Proud Daddy!

FOUR generations (& a cute bum...)

Silas and his parents...Grandpa Barry and Grandma Cakey!

My sweet, supportive friends! Breann, Shayna, & Emilie

We were all pregnant at the same time!  Amelia is two weeks older and Cole is 1 1/2 months older!

Most of my family!!

At this point Reagan was done!!!  She so wanted out of that dress!!

We had to get with Gramma!!  Pretty Gramma!

I bet you can't guess what his first movie was this summer??  (or maybe you can!)

Drew really had no idea what was going on.  We decided to take him to the theatre for the very first time in his cute little life!!  If you know Drew, you know which movies he LOVES!!  We attempted an early show, but arrived not as early as planned, so there were no seats together except down in the front...forget it!!  He was really overwhelmed by all the people in this huge room.  We found two seats up near the top but he wouldn't even walk past the 4 people in the row to get to the seats.  So we switched our tickets for the next showing and came back with plenty of time to spare.  It was great!  A much less stressful situation for ALL of us!!


Drew did so well and just LOVED the movie...any guesses yet?  He had his own popcorn, drink and I took the Laffy Taffy (too sticky for 2 year olds) and he was set!  We had a great time!!  Totally cute movie, totally cute DREW....can't wait for it to come out on DVD in a couple months!!

I know I "threatened" to do this a while ago and I never did, but Silas and I were talking about things with our family blog and we've decided to make it private!

If you would like me to invite you to view it, please, let me know.  I'll turn on comment moderation so your emails aren't visible in the comments area.  I'll be setting the private setting on Monday, September 20th..fyi!

I really hate to do this because honestly Google Reader is soooo nice with telling about updates.  So with that said,  I think I'll do what my sister, McKenna, suggested and start a non-private update blog!  It will tell you I've updated the private blog and then you don't have to check my blog and then I wasted your time because I haven't updated and we all know how precious time is....wow, that was a lot to say :)!!  So here's our "update blog" that you can add to your Google Reader or Follow through Blogger.

This is all, of course, if you really want to keep reading our blog :)

We had a really full, fun packed July!  With the celebrations of the 4th, which I posted about earlier, our (what would seem) yearly trip to LS Ranch, and Bear Lake (earlier post as well...sorry a bit out of order) we LOVED July!

We made it off the dirt road and up the hill on to Highway 6...barely!

 Side Story:
So here's the story behind LS Ranch.  Jamie's parents own this beautiful property up Spanish Fork Canyon...just tucked up nicely on your way to Manti.  There is a pavillion with a fireplace and above it are the initials..LSR...for LS Ranch.  So last year, I asked Jamie, what does LSR stand for...knowing her family's last name is Ellis.  She said that he uncle (or someone) in the family was asked to come up and write Ellis on the trash cans and he wrote LS instead of Ellis...so now the ranch is called LS Ranch! Ha! Love it!  Ok...
But many thanks to the Ellis' for letting the Ehat's spend time together here at LS Ranch! We sure do have a lot of fun being together!!
