Mt. Lemmon with Friends

On Labor Day, Sept 1, 2014 we went to Mt. Lemmon with our friends, The Smiths. We started by going to the Mt. Lemmon Ski area. Then we had a picnic in Marshall Gulch where the kids enjoyed playing in the creek.

Happy 17 Years to Us

On August 23 Matt and I celebrated our 17th wedding anniversary. We were able to go to the temple during the day and then back home to go out to dinner.

Another D-Back game

Over Labor Day weekend (8/29/14) we went to another D-Back game, this time with our friends, The Smiths. The kids had fun having their friends there. We sat by the bull pin again. We should have been sitting in these seats for years!

Another Sleep Picture

Since I can't resist taking pictures of the boys when they are asleep, especially Dylan . . .

Sometime during the night Dylan crawled into the top bunk with Riley.

Tea Party

Dylan set up a tea party for his stuffed animals one afternoon. So cute!

Fall Ball 2014

The boys decided to try out fall ball this year. Dylan played t-ball, Ethan coach pitch and Riley minors. They all enjoyed themselves and had some good teams.

Ethan's first practice.

Hawaiian Pool Party

On 8/16/14 we had some friends over for a pool party. The Smith and Echols family came and joined us. We had some bbq pork sandwiches. Echols brought a pavlova with them. Super yummy. The kids had a great time of swimming and then watching a movie up in the boys room later on.

Take Me Out to the Ballgame

We went on 8/9/14 with Brian's family to see the D-Backs vs Rockies. We had seats by the bull pin and the boys loved watching the pitchers warm up. It was a close game until the 8th inning, the D-Backs got 9 runs. Final score was 14-4. It was a great ending!
