This is an entry for a fancy cruise!  It would be so cool to win!

over at www.jennysgatherings.com she is giving away a BOSCH!

Charlee turned three and we had the greatest party ever! My mom got Charlee a real train to come to our neighborhood and give rides for an hour, it was honestly the best! Then we had a pinata and cake, ice cream and presents. 1 1/2 of a three year olds dream. So great!

The cake, I love Charlee's face, are you kidding me right now?
Hey daddy got to come, poor guy works so much with busy season, thank goodness we are 3/4 of the way done with that.

I am finally posting pictures from my birthday. I love my friends and my husband it was a great time.

I cannot believe that she is finally in kindergarten! She has been counting down the days and now that it finally came and went it almost does not seem real. She was so excited until the night before when we had finished fathers blessings and our special dinner she got a little emotional and then got me going too. She just said how much she is going to miss me and that I am her best friend and she will miss me at kindergarten. Oh man I lost it, but I reassured her that we would still be best friends and that she would love school and she did. She has a bunch of other girls from church in her class and lucked out with the best Kinder teacher there ever was! She is awesome!

Charlee actually had a harder time than Reese, she cried for almost 30 mins when we dropped her off and still gets sad everytime we get in the car to pick up the car pool for drop off, but we are enjoying our time together.
My girls and I

Reese and Maggie
All the church girls and the lone boy.
Reese and her awesome teacher Miss Katnik. Love her

We were so excited that Grandma Nada and Grandpa Gary could come to visit. We loved having them here and the girls were spoiled by their grandparents and were so sad to see them leave.

We did lots of fun things:
Got dressed up like pioneers at the Mormon Battalion museum
Worked the radio frequencies on The Midway
Steered the ship
Flew in a helicopter (not really)
Flew a jet plane
Cuddled with grandpa (and grandma, just did not get a picture:( )

Thanks to Sarah Larsen we had Emerald Bay all to ourselves today. I was awesome. The sun kept playing peek-a-boo but I did not mind. It is such a beautiful place and I really had to pinch myself thinking on the drive home, "OK I actually live here."

Chels and Dane are here too and I love it. They need to stay another week :)

These pictures truly just show our summer. We have spent almost everyday at the pool or the beach, it has been wonderful. Too bad we could not convince Bret to play hooky from work! That guy is just too dedicated! :) we missed him!











I love that Cheeto sandy face. Man this girl is hilarious!
